"When I was living in Miami my skin was actually a bit darker, so that kinda raised like, this whole controversy to where they were saying I was bleaching my skin, which I wasn't," Chyna, 31, said during a confessional.

Dencia owns the company Whitenicious, which is famous for selling a skin whitening cream. She claimed that the celebrities who were accusing Chyna of lightening her skin were the same people secretly buying her product.

She added, "What is funny coming from me is that coming from West Africa I've never had a colorism conversation. You guys fight for your rights to do dumb stuff every day, why can't I do what I want to do with my body?"
