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."
The last thing she’s qualified to speak on is reality.
Soon, she’s start a reality bus tour. With bite-sized Three Musketeers.
100% real fakery.
I wonder if dhe’ll play a DUAL role and portray BOTH a Black and a White Woman?
It might make the Weather Channel on snowflake factor.
Professional wrestling also beckons...
First of all, since her parents adopted 4 black kids I can understand how she could think she’s black, too.
Second, I can see her in a sitcom playing a woman who’s pretending to be black. She’s got the part down.
My wife and I have started watching a lot of comedy and drama on the BBC on PBS. The shows rarely contain political commentary.
I’ve never been into reality TV. Not since the first one came on.
America is no longer a country, but a depraved freak-show.
yep! white privilege at work. :p
i’m surprised the millennial SJWs haven’t picked up on this yet and started expressing their outrage all over social media... demanding that the world stop spinning until reality comports itself with how they envision it should be. foot stomping and temper tantrums on social media tend to be how they think one goes about changing the world.
freaks on display
Now that’s funny.
Yeah...I’m still trying to figure out what’s “real” about this broad. The skin color is fake, the hair is fake, her background is fake, her education is fake, her ethnicity is fake. About the only thing real about her that I can see is that she is a 100% genuine fraud.
Her parents should offer to have DNA testing to prove they are her parents. They could all go on some talk show to get the results. Somehow I doubt their daughter would submit to the test.
Weave. She answered that question in a headline I read.
You must have missed the memo. We are not supposed to use the word crazy any longer. It is considered an ableist slur.
lol literally
co-starring Dan Rather and Brian Williams.
I'm not the only one.
