How can I make my skin lighter?

Okay so i'm an African American 14 year old girl and I really don't like my skin color ! Like i'm about the same skin color as Keke Palmer. I wanna be lighter but my mom has said that I can never use skin lightening creams ! ): I wanna be about the same skin color as Nicki Minaj. So are there any home remedies I can make/use that can lighten my skin and give me good results ? And if I do in fact lighten my skin , how can I maintain it and keep it like that ? And please don't start w/ any of that "oh your skins beautiful just the way it is. you should love yourself the way god made you." crap haha. Just tell me if you know. K thanks (:
