Ive always told myself that Im ugly but my dream

“I’ve always told myself that I’m ugly, but my dream isn’t to be beautiful or to be my parents’ double”

The daughter of Ambra Angiolini and Francesco Renga has decided to respond to the comments of those who criticize her looks: «I say to those who feel like me not to be discouraged by certain words. In life I want to try to make the world a little better»

«Hello, it’s me, Jolanda, the ugly daughter…». With these words, spoken with a really disarming sweetness, Jolanda Renga wanted to respond to the many comments of those who, with the usual dryness to which we are accustomed to social networks, wrote about her and her appearance, negatively comparing her to her parents . to say that she is not equally beautiful, equally fascinating and so on, to an abyss of unconditional and unjust meanness. In the video shared on social media and also relaunched by her mother Ambra Angiolini, Jolanda, 18, first shows some comments, then she says: “You’re ugly, I’ve always said that to myself since I was little, when I see myself in the mirror when I see myself in the photos: you are ugly, you have an ugly nose, an ugly smile, an ugly mole, ugly legs, everything is ugly». Then the admission: “Actually, I came across the video by accident today. In the beginning I was bad, very bad. Today, instead of telling myself that, I decided to apologize, sorry for putting so much importance on what these people said. So I decided to give a general speech about it too».

What matters

And, always accompanied by her smile, she continued: «Fortunately, I don’t dream of being beautiful, and neither does my parents’ double. Actually, my biggest wish in life is to do things that matter, important things and I want to try to make the world a little bit better. I’m happy and also proud of myself because I can say that every day I try to do something in my little way and I always try to do my best in what I do, so I think that makes me too to a beautiful person. I’ve always thought that the important things are the things we can’t see: I care a lot more about my soul than my face and looks because that won’t last forever, instead my heart and soul will be the ones for whom it applies all my life and that’s why I prefer that they are nice and clean».

The selling point

And again: “I think as long as the worst thing people say about me is that I’m ugly, I can rest easy because I’m pretty sure I can’t be called mean, selfish or insensitive . I want to address those who are a little bit like me: I want to tell you that you are very special and that you will always shine in a different light as long as you take care of and respect yourself and others. Good and kind people are really beautiful, so I want to tell you that you should not allow these people to change this part that is so special and unique: instead, learn to appreciate it and make it a strength». A lesson in depth and kindness that spreads beauty even where its opposite is sown. Among the many people who moved was even his mother, who responded to his words: “You have already made the world a better place by choosing to be there. I’ve been trying to be “ugly” like you since you were born. Sincerely, darling.”
