Kylie Jenner appeared with darker skin in a new video and it was not long before she was criticized
There are multiple celebrities and influencers who have been accused of blackfishing, a term used to describe non-Afro-descendant people who modify their appearance to appear black; this through hairstyles, cosmetic procedures and the use of makeup.
For example, former Little Mix member Jesy Nelson has just released her single entitled ‘Boyz’, opposite Nicki Minaj, and was accused of cultural appropriation for the look she wore in the video clip. For her part, the influencer, Aga Brzostowska, posed as a black girl, but a photograph of her was later leaked and her followers discovered that it was all an invention, as it turned out that Aga was Polish, and therefore, her color lighter skinned.

The youngest of the Kardashians is a fan of using different filters on Instagram, so in one of her most recent stories decided to try one that darkens the skin.
