Just the other day actress, Kiera Knighly complained about being given boobs on a movie poster. We know Beyonce's skin is not that light, just like we know that Lacefront wig she's wearing in the ad has not been "Lorealed"...LOL
LostGirl#1, August 8, 2008 at 9:54 AM: I think they photoshopped the h** out of Bey.
tasha212, August 8, 2008 at 12:30 PM: Yeah they lightened her skin and hair. I wonder what she thinks about it.
Gloria, August 8, 2008 at 1:48 PM: Not only did that "MJ" her skin they also gave her a nose job too.
Dr. Tracey Salisbury, August 8, 2008 at 2:43 PM: KIMMY - LOL! Lace-front wig!

Ya'll should check out The Black Snob's take on this too. She's under my favorite blogs.

GoldenAh, August 8, 2008 at 11:30 PM: Not to defend L'Oreal, but some folks (like me sometimes) do appear yellow under bright lights.

I don't doubt she gets touched up, but in many pictures she is yellow:

Album cover

Sports Ills

Yellow

More yellow

There is a difference between looking yellow and white. Plus lighting doesn't account for the fact that her nose and jawline has been chiseled.
Anonymous, August 9, 2008 at 2:23 PM: The media does that constantly. They lighten black people and darken white white people. It's crazy!
Anonymous, August 11, 2008 at 5:38 PM: i think that they messed with her nose really. i'm not really flipping out on her "lightness" beause she is a pretty light woman anyway... once you add blonde and lighting from the set and camera, that's what you are going to get!

many black folks tan just as much as whites, so I don't think that anyone can take in account any pictures of her appearing "darker". i've seen papparazi shots of her at night and she appears pretty light.

i think it's the nose.
