But makeup does those things. There's also a lot to be said about how the medium of film captures black skin.
Ah, your "evidence" is the "fold" video. Got it.
Black people do get lighter/darker depending on sun exposure the same way other races do, right? Just checking.
Why do you think this is specific to Beyonce? It's not. It's a problem with media and marketing perceptions. Is there evidence that Beyonce specifically asks for lightening and/or nose touchups?
Ehh... None of these are specific to Beyonce. And honestly even the "fake pregnancy" thing is not a big deal to me *raises flame shield*. I mean she will be a mother at the end of the day regardless if she actually carried the child. And she won't be the first woman in the world who did such a thing.
My nose doesn't shrink when photographed, and when dealing with a competent photographer, they manage to capture the black skin tone. Like for Idris Alba, Kelly Rowland, Westley Snipes, Angela Basset, Don Cheadle, Whoopi Goldberg, Bernie Mac, Tracy Morgan, Erykah Badu, Janelle Monae, Nick Cannon, and so on and so forth. This is not an issue to act brand new about. Either its all happening and poor old beyonce doesn't know anything going on, or, She approves selects, or her publicist. So, she might not be noticing that she is getting more pale by the years go on, photographically. Or her publicist does. Shes in the dark, of course. She isn't aware of any of this.
I'll say that I didn't mean 'skin lightening' to mean the bleach deal or whatever. Just outwardly appearing whitewashed in every single one of your advertisements.
I don't think a fake pregnancy is a big deal, but it does promote some stigma that having problems giving birth is something to be shunned or hide. Its an unfortunate event to happen when they could be a very powerful couple adopting as well as getting awareness out about the issues that every day normal people go through. But, for all I know -- she could have had something happen to her that caused her not to be able to have children. So, moving forward.. for whatever reason they faked that kid, it happend. And I wont bring that up.
