Tamil Model Says Her Image Was Used For Skin Lightening Ad Without Consent

CRajah

Last year, a controversial advertisement was placed in one of Toronto’s public trains (TTC) which promoted a skin lightening clinic. The company ended up pulling the ads after multiple complaints were sent to the TTC requesting their removal.

It turns out that the model featured on the right side of the ad above is Chinthiya Rajah of Toronto. She recently spoke to the Toronto Star and has indicated that she did not provide her consent to be featured in such an ad, stating:

“In my culture, paler is better, but I don’t support that,” she said. “I’m the type of person that believes in embracing your skin tone no matter what your colour is.”
