Is it cos I is White?

I was asked to do a photo shoot for my friend Asna and her magazine project, which is based on ID magazine. Their theme is opposites so I was modelling against the very beautiful Melissa Kuwana, who is actually a very close friend. The chemistry on camera is quite clear, in fact most of the photos that Asna really likes are when we burst into fits of giggles.

When Asna and her editor Zoey were putting make up on me the conversation went something like this;

Oh my gosh you are so white! you are SO WHITE! Like, actually WHITE, you are so so pale, it's the same as WHITE!
