Yes, This Is Beyonce

A natural reaction to this new promo picture for Beyonce's last album is:

Because that looks like Beyonce as much as this pasty fat blob of depressing feelings over my stomach looks like Serena Williams' 10-pack. But some bitches aren't mad because the "Harpo, who dis woman?" Photoshop tool was abused during the making of this picture. They're mad because they say Beyonce was whitewashed AGAIN. Over three years ago, L'Oreal was accused of giving Beyonce whiteface filipinoface and now the #1 newspaper in Fuckeryville, The Daily Mail, says she might be at it again. They brought out some comments from 2008 that a writer for the Daily Mail made about how Beyonce is bad for Black and Asian girls:

"Too many black and Asian children grow up understanding the sad truth that to have dark skin is to be somehow inferior. Of course, black and Asian parents work hard to give their children a positive self-image and confidence in their appearance, despite the cultural forces stacked against them. But when black celebrities appear to deny their heritage by trying to make themselves look white, I despair for the youngsters who see those images."

But the DM also spoke to some "expert" who said that Beyonce's lighter skin color in the picture above could be from bright lights on her face and shit. To me, that's exactly what's going on here. It's just a light! Specifically, it's just Beyonce glowing inside from the illuminated seed of infinite light that Jay-Z jizzed into her. Either that or Beyonce was too busy shopping for South American baby ovens at the time of this photo shoot and so she asked my Cuban friend Armando to do his best Kylie Minogue drag for this picture.

It does not bother me that Beyonce wants to be white. Her forgettable music is what I hate. And her speaking voice gets on my last nerve. She sounds so uneducated. Sorry.

Dumb asses should know that on photo shoots that MY black ass has taken...in the right or wrong lighting depending on whom you ask) I can look as light as Beyonce. So get over it!

Secondly, if a black woman wants to dye her hair blonde and beyond, then LET HER. It's hair, folks. White people have been dying their skin brown forever and a day and rarely are they declared trying to 'go black'.

I am all for black people relaying every ethnicity flowing through their veins, because everyone else has been doing that shit forever and a day. We ALL are mixed. Get over it!
-------

The issue is that Beyonce has had lots of incidents like this. Magazines have lightened her up and she didn't take the opportunity for a "I'm not that damn light! Photoshop in the wrong hands is evil!" speech. She has rumors that her dad and her used her being the lighter-skinned member of Destiny's Child as a way to make her stand out. Her and her mother constantly throw around the "Creole" tag, which historically was used by lighter skinned African-Americans (especially those from Louisiana, but many Gulf States too) to differentiate themselves from other African-Americans. It's not just one thing or one event with Beyonce, it is a culmination of little things.

And to top it all off... the picture doesn't even look like her. She looks like Rihanna.

I really hope she doesn't pass on her neurotic behavior and insecurities to her daughter. No, wonder she is besties with GOOP.

I hate how lighter is automatically assumed better. This is coming from someone who is light. My bff in HS had this beautiful, dark brown skin. She had to hear constantly how less attractive she was compared to all the other girls. Sickening. And, even more sickening is the fact that most of this would come from dudes just as dark or darker than her. I use to ask them all the time how they would feel if light skin girls said they wouldn't date them b/c they were too dark. It isn't much fun when it is turned around.

Ok, yeah. Why does wanting lighter skin necessarily mean someone wants to look "white"? This happens all over the world, too, not just the U.S.

I also thought this looked like some weird Christina Aguilera/Riri hybrid at first.

Well I happened to see Beyonce's video "Best I never had" today. I really can't with this woman, not anymore. What is her problem?

The whole song she's singing about the guy who "fucked" her over while she's getting married and trying to look as desirable as she can, as if she's saying "Look at me now, look what you're missing out on."

Good God woman, get over yourself. This isn't just a song, this is her mindset, this is all she ever writes about. This is a type of woman whose beauty gets nullified by her personality.

Lump her in with Halle Berry, except her ego is on a par with Madonna.

70% of African American kids are born to single mothers. These single mothers give the Republicans so much ammunition to hate. Having the baby of a man you are not married too is a disgrace.
==============================

what the fuck does that have to do with Beyonce? She is married to Jay Z.

I am not even going there with your attitude about single mothers. You already know I think you are a fucking idiot.

What is this whole "Born to single mothers" crap? Unless these births were immaculate conceptions, that means these "single mothers" were impregnated by "single fathers". The only difference being, a pregnant woman can't get knocked up more than once in 9 months, while a 'single father' can be raw doggin' the whole GOD DAMNED HOOD.

I s'pose men just can't help spurting spooge in every random back alley available hole right?

It's allllllllllll the woman's fault though because she is usually the only one left holding the baby and taking full responsibility with or without the help of the baby daddy dawg.

Light and bright. Really? Thanks for proving my point. And, no, being light skinned does not give you some kind of racism immunity. I was adopted by a white family. Talk about standing out. People were not always cool about it. I got followed by the neighborhood watch in the neighborhood I LIVED in.

========

A few things.

I think what the poster is referring to is that the lighter you are, the more of a pass you might get in America, which is not to say that you don't experience a different kind of shit or that your life is easy. I don't doubt for a second that you got shit from whites and those of colour, Mami. What is interesting and sort of sad to me is the bigotry against those who are darker in any society or culture.

As far Beyonce and that Creole shit, I just find it tiresome when black folks feel the need to point out everything else they are except black. The peculiar institution of slavery, that shit is old, we get it, we are mixed, blah, blah.

But I want to say also that just because a woman with kinky/curly hair straightens it does not mean that she is rejecting a part of herself. A black women making bodily alterations is not necessarily trying to be white. When Lohan and others go overboard with the spray tan, does anyone say, "Look, she's trying to be black?" (No, because she is trying to be orange...) Really, that kind of argument went out the window in the 70s, as if relaxing the hair relaxes the mind as we will not be ready for the revolution, my brothas and sistas!!!!!! The altering in the photo appears to be what fashion mags and the industry do all the time to their subjects, altering this and that. They did wonders with Michele Williams when she was with Destiny's Child because that bitch is 50, okay?

I wouldn't be surprised if Bouncy approved this picture. There were rumors back in her Destiny's Child days that Daddy Knowles wouldn't allow her to tan so she would stick out as the lighter one.
-------------------------------

It's so obvious that Bouncy was hiding in an attic or something for part of the summer back in the day. She was much lighter than the other two and she was the one they threw blonde hair on. Bitch, we all know your hair doesn't come out of your head blonde, no matter how much you want to claim your ass is Creole.

*Note: I can't fucking stand when fellow Black people insist that they are Creole like it is something special. All it means is that some people way back when in your family were French or Spanish, nothing more, nothing less. Most Black people in the Americas have some European in them (my mom's family has German, Scottish, English, and Irish).
-------------------

God, this--can you post this everywhere? Both sides of my family are from Louisiana way back. In fact, there are only a few of us who were not born there. I am sick, sick sick to death of the Creole crap. It means nothing except you have a French name.

As far as color, for every light skinned tale of woe there are equal or more dark skinned tales of woe because let's face it: if you're light and bright you're all right here in the good oe USA. I I just wish we could accept our blackness. I have Native American, French, Chinese and Jewish in my heritage, but I am black. I got side eyes and people telling me I'd be pretty if I weren't so black. Been called darkie, Tarzan, chocolate, you name it. I got over it and I never felt the need to be ashamed of who I am.

I actually thought that was Christina Aguilera at first glance, and then I thought that it was that Keri Hilson chick. I'm surprised that no one picked up on the EYEBROW SITUATION. What happened to the EYEBROWS? Did she want them to photoshop those too?

Note to Beyonce: YOU ARE BLACK. You will never be white no matter how many nose jobs you get, how much blonde horse hair you glue into your head and how many hours retouchers spend lightening your skin.

You are a shitty role model for young black girls and a fake hack of a performer. Go sit down somewhere.

Hotmami, dont care what shade you are as long as your skin is healthy.

I noticed the weight they shaved before I noticed her skin.

As for the skin thing, it goes both ways. I'm biracial, and I honestly cannot believe the amount of side eyes and pursed lips I get. Like races hate on their own skin tones more than outside races do, IMO.

Funny how no one ever mentions how bad white people feel if they are too pale. They get made fun of and made to feel less attractive if they don't have "some color." Even little kids try to tan themselves to avoid being called pale. Why isn't this an issue? I'm betting there are plenty of photos of white people out there that have been darkened to make them look less pale.

----

My mother took me to the doctor when I was a kid because I was so pale. I never blushed or showed any color. The doctor just said I had no pigment in my skin and it was the way I was. So since I was 17 I started visiting tanning beds once a week to gain some color and I turned a lot darker and stayed that way for a few years... now I am in my mid-late twenties and notice lines on the side of my forehead and around my eyes... I think it's a direct effect of tanning. Now I am a pasty bitch and I hate it but it ages white people like fuck. A close family member also died very painfully recently from skin cancer and he never went to any tanning beds... he was just a cattle farmer out in the sun every day. Ehhh... tans = bad. :/

My bf friend was one of Hugh Hefners "gf" back when he had like 10 gf's in the early 2000's anyways she told us during the time when Jay Z & Bea first married that Jay Z was still sleeping with her friend every time he was in Vegas. Her friend happen to be some playboy type chick, blonde hair, fake tits & yes white. Beyonce is one sad woman, I mean her whole life has been built upon competing against her own self & what she really looks like. From her father telling her not to tan so she would stick out as the "lighter" one in Destiny Child to her "husband" fucking every white woman with bleach blonde hair. Inside she will never be whole because of what she has grown use to as normal.

I just don't understand that one. I mean, she's recycle queen, seperates colored paper from white, cans from bottles, colored bottles from water bottles...but burying your trash.????????????????????????

I guess that depends on what she's burying. If her recyclables are taken care of, all that's left pretty much is food and that degrades into compost. Oh ew. Does she have a cat???

That's true too, although I think most white people spray tan before photoshoots if they want more color. Retouching is expensive. I wish people would just embrace their color, as long as their skin is healthy (Kelly Osbourne, you need to stop hugging that jaundiced look hunty). Lindsay Lohan, for instance, has stopped tanning so much and embraced her Irish pallor. She does need to reach out and touch the ginger though.
