Rachel Dolezal is in talks to star in her own reality-television show, RadarOnline reports.
Dolezal is a former NAACP leader who recently decided to step down from her position after being outed as being white by her parents.
Although Rachel has said that she identifies as black and has posed as a black woman for many years, her parents Larry and Ruthanne recently revealed to local newspaper The Spokesman-Review that their daughter has been lying about her ethnicity for many years and even provided the paper with her birth certificate and photos of Rachel as a white woman, People reports.
Now that the news has come out that Dolezal is in fact white, two production companies have reached out to offer her the opportunity to star in her own reality-TV show, says RO which adds that Dolezal is also seeking professional representation following her newfound celebrity.
An RO source revealed that Dolezal's "phone has been ringing constantly since the scandal broke, and she truly seems to be enjoying all of the attention. Going back to her former life just isn't an option."
The source added that "Rachel wants to use all of the publicity to raise awareness about race relations."
Dolezal's rumored reality-television gig comes on the heels of her interviews on NBC's "Today" and NBC's "Nightly News" to further discuss her belief that she is black.
Dolezal explained she felt she that she was black from a very young age and does not definitively believe that her white parents are her biological parents.
"I haven't had a DNA test. There's been no biological proof that Larry and Ruthanne are my biological parents," she said on NBC Nightly News."I'm not necessarily saying that I can prove they're not, but I don't know that I can actually prove they are. I mean the birth certificate was issued a month and a half after I'm born. Certainly there were no medical witnesses to my birth. It was in the woods."
While appearing on "Today," Dolezal revealed that Caitlyn Jenner's transgender story resonated with her because she, too, felt isolated in her community and always felt that she was black.
"I cried," Rachel said about Jenner's story. "Because I resonated with some of the themes of isolation, of being misunderstood-to not know if you have a conversation with somebody, will that relationship then end because they have seen you as one way."
How long can she stretch this 15 minutes? Time will tell.
Maybe there’s more to Rachael than the vain, self loathing fantasist, siren we already know her to (want to )be.
Tomorrow’s the first day Bruce Jenner wont be celebrating father’s day in years.
Would love to see the media’s reaction when Brucette publically supports Ted cruz
I can’t wait for the episodes where she journeys to Africa in search of her roots.. And ancestors.
Tom Norman, manager of the Elephant Man, who be in his glory and heydey working in today's tv management. Cited as being exploitative he'd be a hailed a genius by these guys today.
On the Hot/Crazy plot wouldn’t she be in the “no-go” zone?
Is that Tommy Smothers?
Will they feature the hate mail she sent to herself, scaring her children in the process?
That would be great!! They’d explode on TV!!
Losers like watching shows about others with grave pathologies in order to feel better about their own dysfunction, but while they sit on their couch, addled on the prescription drug du jour or latest fad cocktail, it is lost on them that they are paying the bills for the person they are laughing at on their big screen TVs.
What’s it going to be on the Food Channel, “Cooking with Nuts”?
“Come soon, Lord Jesus......”
Think of it as “beam me up Scotty I have had enough.”
For Christians.
Now she’s achieved her dream. Media Hooker.
Hope the show doesn’t run in Spokane. Although the news anchors here are always laughing when they report on her.
It’s been reported that it’s a weave.
For all I know, she’s a bald man.
Reality TV? For her? Sounds about right...
A crazy person making a fool of themselves is interesting, if short-lived, entertainment.
Jenner and now this fraud are getting TV shows? Damn, we are finished..
The show will start with a tune from Los Bravos
Black is black, I want my baby back
It’s grey, it’s grey, since she went away, oh oh
I told you she was going to get promoted over this!
