Yvonne also spoke with Bossip and told us what makes her black beautiful.
“Just owning my blackness [is what makes it beautiuful],” said Yvonne. Being comfortable in my blackness. When I wake up I know what it is, I’m not trying to be anything other than what I already am. Having that confidence is enough. Sitting in that confidence is really what makes my black beautiful.”
