I'm sure you must have seen this face recently...
If you haven't, let me tell you her story.
Her name is Tracy Smith.
A young Liberian girl who just wanted to shine at the Miss Margibi Beauty Pageant, but unfortunately, her picture went viral for the wrong reason and she suddenly became the talk of social media — not for her talent, but for her face and makeup.
People mocked her looks.
They laughed at her jawline.
Some said things that could break even the strongest soul.
For two days, Tracy went quiet. She stayed away from social media, carrying the weight of insults from strangers who didn’t even know her.
But guess what?
Instead of being buried by bullying,
What they thought would destroy her,
Became a vessel of blessing.
The same picture that people used to mock her became the picture that opened doors of blessings.
In just a few days, she received opportunities some only dream about:
>> Heritage Cotton signed her as a model.
>> Popular Liberian star Frank Artus reached out to give her a role in his next movie.
>> Comedians like Keyshia and Lorpu Kolu in Liberia invited her to feature in their skits.
>> Mama Liberia asked her to join her acting scenes.
>> Liberian promoter Double H gave her one-year free access to karaoke nights with friends.
>> A makeup brand named her their ambassador.
>> Liberian Girl Beauty Lounge crowned her a diva and gave her free beauty services.
All this, for the same young woman who was mocked online just days earlier.
Indeed, life can be unpredictable.
Sometimes our blessings are covered in bullies, social media dragging, and public ridicule. After all, negativity gains more attention and brings massive unsolicited visibility.
It's almost becoming a pattern now.
It seems someone has to be bullied, dragged, or go viral for the wrong reasons before social media people would love and support them.
In the case of Tracy, one thing is clear: what was meant to break her has only made her stronger, richer, famous, and about to become a celebrity if well
