They say pretty and light skin privilege prevails, the body image is always a focal point in a lot of roles as well as the music industry. Speaking to Candice Modiselle on her podcast called The Five Minute Call, Lesedi dished out how she never got roles based on how she looked, despite having the talent.
“It’s been real a couple of times. There’s been a couple of auditions I went to where what hurt the most was being told by the casting director that ‘out of everyone you had the best performance but they went a certain way because you didn’t have the look’. So it didn’t matter whether you could encompass that character fully. Then it became about the look, and if not the look it became about the prominence.”
“It became really prevalent around those times for me that you really have to fight twice as hard, and already I’m fighting twice as hard just based on my identity. Now I have to fight even harder just because of how I look, how I express myself, and how my body is shaped.”
