Otile Brown was thought to be naturally light skin until his old photos surfaced online and sparked claims he bleached his body.
The singer’s old photo convinced some people that he did something to make his skin much lighter in complexion.
Otile’s old photo, which was posted on Instagram before he became rich and famous, show he was fairly light skin compared to how he is currently in terms of complexion.
While some netizens were convinced that the singer bleached, others were not quite sure.
It’s not the first time that Otile’s skin complexion is discussed online, back in 2019 the singer himself said his ex Vera Sidika aborted his unborn child because she didn’t believe that Otile’s ‘light skin’ genes were ‘strong’ enough to produce a light-skinned baby.
“Some people are sick. Mtu yuko so obsessed kuzaa mtoto mcute forgetting that chali na dame wawezakua light sink and still maze mtoto mweusi. Have seen it with my own eyes.Yangu ilitolewa coz she doubted I’m light skin enough or the baby to come out light skin. Yaani you’d rather be with a wrong guy as long as he can get you a cute baby (light skin). What’s going on in the world. By cute we know you mean light. Daah, then for a sure bet get a white man.
“So, when you’re light skin you are considered cute? We know you and we know it bothers you. We can see through your lies. sick sick sick and y’all wind end up bad,” read part of Otile’s post.
Otile and Vera broke up for good in October 2018 and they became bitter enemies.
