When we first blogged about a new skin bleaching cream called 'Whitenicious' created by African model, Dencia, we were, like many others, appalled by the name and
purpose of the skin lightening cream. If that wasn't disgraceful enough, however, Denicia recently directed some very nasty
words toward Oscar winner and beloved starlet, Lupita Nyong’o.
During the annual Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon, Lupita shared a heartfelt letter, - a personal letter a fan had written to her about wanting to purchase Dencia’s, 'Whitenicious' cream to become lighter. (see the video below)

“Dear Lupita, I think you’re really lucky to be this
Black but yet this successful in Hollywood overnight. I was just about to buy
Dencia’s Whitenicious cream to lighten my skin when you appeared on the world
map and saved me.’” - from a fan
Although inspirational to most, after Lupita
gave an inspiring speech about her own skin color, and for being the sole
reason a fan decided not to purchase Dencia’s 'Whitenicious' cream, the angry model took to twitter to call out the 12 Years a Slave actress:
A girl wrote u a letter?lol thru which email when I just
checked ur twitter n can’t see an email address!!Ir pr tried n thanks 4 the Pub
and the 'Whitenicious' creator, didn't stop there:

did.

Dencia also replied back to a "hater,"
explaining her own lack of roles and prominence in Hollywood:
