I just can't get over this shit. Why destroy the pigment in your body to appear white and then go on to LIE endlessly about some skin cream did this to you.... did the skin cream turn his eyes green also (he now wears green contacts). Sammy Sossa has had race, identity and image problems with himself for years. Having some money, he now thinks he can make himself appear outwardly the way he feels inwardly (sorta like men who have sex changes claiming they have always been a woman trapped in a man's body). He looks horrible and the sad part is it was only a couple of months ago that his skin was still dark brown and now he looks like someone dipped him into a bag of confectioners sugar. Can someone say michael Jackson?
Sammy Sosa arrives at the Latin Recording Academy Person of The Year event in honor of Juan Gabriel on Wednesday, Nov. 4, 2009, in Las Vegas. Sosa says a cosmetic cream he uses to soften his skin is the reason for his lighter skin tone. Sosa says he has been using the cream for a long time, and combined with bright TV lights, it made his face look whiter than it really is.
