Fans and anti-racism campaigners accused the company of “whitewashing” the historic character
DISNEY ANIMATORS have redrawn Princess Tiana following a backlash sparked by the release of an image in which her skin tone appeared significantly lighter.
Princess Tiana, Disney’s first black princess, first appeared as the lead character in the 2009 film The Princess and The Frog.
Many deemed her historic creation as a sign of positive change within Hollywood and a step forward for Disney. But when images of Princess Tiana were released as part of the Wreck-It Ralph 2 promotional materials, fans and campaigners were shocked by her altered appearance.
