In reality they were probably more interested in getting her hair color just right.

I thank God for my life.

However in my human vanity wonder why I was designed with a body that looks like a jelly bean.

She is a beauty. sigh....

why on earth would she do or allow something as stupid as that, especially being as naturally gorgeous as she is in the first place.

Why shouldn’t they lighten her skin? I’ve seen quite a few pictures of His Obamasty where they must have done the same thing.

Oh, goody. LIke typical libs they're getting offended on behalf of someone.

Does anybody believe these pics were used without Beyonce's approval? Maybe she likes herself lighter, much like whites like themselves with a tan.

Dunno. I don’t listen to her music or take my philosophy of life from anything she says or does. I just think she’s hot no matter what color she is.

You actually NOTICED the hoop earrings?

You've obviously failed as a man, LOL.
