Is Sammy Sosa Pulling A Michael Jackson?

By Alex in Sports on Nov 10, 2009 at 1:04 pm


Is Sammy Sosa pulling a Michael Jackson? The baseball star has noticeably lighter skin color, which he attributed to a "rejuvenation process":

Sosa was photographed recently during an appearance at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

"He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin," Polihronis said. "Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double. Part of (the photo appearance) is just the lighting.

"He is in the middle of doing a cleansing process to his skin. The picture is deceiving. He said, ‘If you saw me in person, you would be surprised. When you see me in person, it is not going to seem like the picture.’

    Who cares? I would be more worried if hes pulling the other "Micheal Jackson". People care to much about other peoples images, and fashion especially celebritys. I could carless if he looked like he got mangled by a car.

    Isn't he retired now?

    So less practicing and sun exposure?

    Cleansing process? You mean that first picture is just a layer of dirt?

    I didn't know anything about him until he pulled a "Michael Jackson". Sad that I now hear of him- when he has lost his color and not what he has done or gained in his career. Now if he had gained color...
