JESY Nelson won awards for her BBC documentary and now the singer’s Little Mix bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock is following in her footsteps.
I can reveal she will front a one-off show exploring race and colourism for BBC Three, where she will speak candidly about her experiences.
A TV insider said: “Leigh-Anne has been vocal about racism in society and BBC Three wanted to get her on board to see if she would speak with them about it. “The documentary will be opening the eyes of those who may not have been aware of issues like colourism, the prejudicial treatment of people of the same race based on the colour of their skin. “This show isn’t about Leigh-Anne’s personal experience.
