Even though everyone is unique, there are some people who are even more unique than others.
Skin color is one of the criteria that visually differentiates people from one another. And for some people, their skin tone is so exceptional that it makes them exceptional beings.
Here are 8 people who make the unusual color of their skin a strength to help them stand out even more.

This young Chinese woman was born in Hong Kong, and she’s the only one of her siblings to be born an albino. In fact, none of her 3 siblings have a melanin deficiency. When she was very young, her parents moved to Sweden, a country where she grew up and studied liberal arts and then journalism. At the age of 24, she began her modeling career. Because she has the strong motivation to be the best she can be, she is also a very famous jazz singer.
