While she was a guest co-host on "The View" on October 14, Tamera Mowry-Housley talked about once being denied a teen magazine cover because she was Black. Fellow co-host Sunny Hostin asked her to elaborate on the incident, which happened at the height of her and her sister Tia Mowry-Hardrict's career during the '90s.

"We were very popular ... My mother's Black and we experienced racism at a very young age," Tamera explained on air. "We went to school in Texas, being called the 'n' word, and I can remember being at the height of our career and loving this particular magazine and asking our publicist to pitch us and they literally came back and said, 'Well, if you are a woman of color, you are Black, you have to be a triple threat to be on our magazine.'" Tamera struggled with this at first, but added, "I used that as fuel, though to keep going," to which other co-hosts — Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Sherri Shepherd (who is also guest-hosting), and Ana Navarro — applauded.

Despite having experienced racism early on in her career, Tamera was thankful for "Sister, Sister" and the impact it continues to have on audiences, saying, "I feel so grateful now looking back, seeing that this show has become somewhat of a classic. It's now on Netflix and people are still loving it. I'm honored."
