The blonde teen courted controversy in July last year for claiming she is actually black.

Victoria claims that a DNA test proved what she says she has always believed: That even though she has dirty blonde her and pale skin, she is actually black, not white.

Since then, the Atlanta, Georgia, native has taken to regularly posting pictures and videos online, speaking in an 'urban accent', repeatedly saying the N-word, and embracing what she sees as black culture - wearing grills, do-rags and shower caps over her very straight hair, twerking, and fighting.

'My whole entire life my mom kept telling me "you’re white" and I never believed her because I knew I was black,' she said, adding that she will celebrate the day she 'found out she was black' as her new birthday.
