What's inside Halle is a sweet disposition and and otherworldly voice. Disney princesses are also outwardly beautiful and she is beautiful. That makes this a perfect casting.

Assuming this is art, artistic expression includes a license to be as derivative or as divergent from the source material as the artist wants to be. Therefore can be no right or wrong answer as to what the latest version of Ariel can look like because the colour of the previous Ariel is more or less irrelevant.
