That misses the point, in this case and others i have read people are pretending to change their skin colour by tanning and changing hair and speech

Yeah I have seen this stuff before that's why I don't take it seriously. Where is the change of voice?

Fooling around and making an accent?

Speaking in Multicultural London English or an essex/urban accent?

Also voices and accents are not tied to race but upbringing and culture. If she is singing in a black voice during music, how is it different from UB40?

People of African descent don't have a monopoly on hair style or skin colour. There are plenty of black people in Australia and Pacific Islands that developed their dark "black" skin pigmentation independently of Africans.

If people want to wear braids or dreads that's up to them.I don't tell black people they shouldn't wear blonde hair or use hair extensions made from Indian women's hair. White people with dread locks isn't offensive it's just a crap look.

Probably, yes.
But I'm damn sure I wasn't asked, or even bothered one iota, if Jackson changing his skin colour bothered me. Or any of the photo tinkering to make a darker skinned singer/celeb look lighter.

I just don't get it.
A girl singer adopts a different persona. That's it.
Has nobody heard or ever seen Bowie?
