Filipinos are notorious for being unsatisfied with their skin color, which is why whitening pills, soaps, and lotions are popular in supermarkets and drugstores. We’re not sure why people aren’t happy with their brown skin since it’s a beautiful color and many men and women rock it so well, including host and singer Mikey Bustos.
The Canadian Idol finalist, whose fanbase is quickly growing because of his parodies of international songs adapted with a local flavor, is back with “I Have a Brown Body,” the funny, and dare we say it, patriotic parody of Brandon Beal’s “Twerk It Like Miley.” Bustos brilliantly riffs the lyrics to celebrate his brown skin. According to him, “This song goes out to all the brown Filipinos out there. Be proud of the skin you’re in!”
