SCHOOL BULLIES WON'T STOP BIRTHMARK TEEN'S HOLLYWOOD DREAM

A teenager bullied for having birthmarks all over her body now hopes to become a Hollywood actress to show girls that beauty comes from being unique. Marika Nagy, 19, was taunted mercilessly by cruel school bullies, who said she looked like a ‘cow’ and was ‘splattered with mud’. After years of abuse, Marika says she has finally found the confidence to celebrate her birthmarks. She now wants to pursue her acting dream to inspire other girls to love themselves the way they are. Marika, who was born in Bremen, Germany, but now works as an au pair in Wythenshawe, Manchester, said: “I spent most of my childhood hiding away. But I refuse to allow other people to stop me from achieving my ambitions.
