One of the valiant and audacious former video jockeys (VJ), television host, and dancer Mathira loves to nose dive into controversies and for her unabashed pictures on social media, the host has been facing a backlash for the past few months.
Mathira, who has been actively posting her pictures on Instagram, was body-shamed by several of her fans for putting on weight and having dark skin tone.
The host, unswayed by the criticism, clapped back at her fans and maintained that she was a brown girl who defined her own standards of beauty.
“The darkness of my skin is my own bronzer, the sun loves me too much that I am immersed in its rays in the summer”, she added.
The television host asserted that she was not ashamed to be brown.
Previously, Mathira grilled her fans who accused the star of getting surgeries and slut-shamed her with undesired remarks over her body shape and weight.

The host took to her social media and maintained, “I’m chubby and I’m happy like this. Who are you to shame me? Focus on yourself please”.
Mathira, who loves to follow western trends and lifestyle, is apparently taking notes from American media personality, socialite, model, businesswoman, stylist, producer, and actress, Kim Kardashian.
Similar to Mathira, Kim Kardashian has always been in the public eyes for her unabashed pictures and dauntless personality.
The media and makeup mogul carries her dark skin tone flawlessly and was subjected to public scrutiny many times in the past for deliberately appearing noticeably ‘darker’ in photos.
The star ignited a social media firestorm with her recent post on Instagram when she used her waterproof body makeup to darken her hands.
The post appeared with two juxtaposed pictures of Kim’s hands that show one hand visibly and unnaturally darker than the other.

In 2019, Kim was bashed for appearing ‘black-faced’ on the cover of 7Hollywood Magazine.
The star was called out multiple times for choosing a dark skin tone for her photos. “I was really tan when we shot the images, and it might be that the contrast was off,” Kardashian told the New York Times.
