Not to worry, Sammy Sosa is Just Rejuvenating His Skin

ca.sports.yahoo.com — It looks like we finally have an explanation behind that widely-circulated picture in which Sammy Sosa(notes) appears as a combination of a Twilight extra, a big Charlie Chaplin fan and someone who is taking the death of Michael Jackson just a little bit too hard.

  • trapper2530, on 11/10/2009, -1/+29wow that chick looks really excited to be taking a picture with him
  • robdazomba, on 11/11/2009, -2/+23I don't buy it. The difference is too much. He's definitely doing some kind of colorizing ***** to his skin.

    What is it with famous black people wanting to tone down their skin color? I think it looks worse. Maybe some female Diggers can speak up here, but to my straight guy eyes, the shot with the darkest skin on the left looks best. Yes? No? What am I missing?

    And is it my imagination or does the width of his nose look slightly smaller in the third pic too?
  • CrazyChair, on 11/11/2009, -1/+21White celebrities have the same problem. They turn themselves into Oompa Loompas or make their skin all leathery to be darker. It's ridiculous.
  • kavendano14, on 11/11/2009, -0/+15He's rejuvenating your ass?
    That's some kinky ***** alright
  • nachochease, on 11/11/2009, -1/+16Luckily we know that Sosa would ever knowingly use any appearance enhancing drugs.
  • kman2190, on 11/11/2009, -0/+14creepiest looking *****
  • Awwzm, on 11/10/2009, -1/+14Whatever he's doing, it rejuvenated the color out of his skin and eyes.
  • mic2233, on 11/11/2009, -0/+12"I'm a dude, playing a dude, disguised as another dude!"
  • RatatRatR, on 11/11/2009, -0/+11It looks like they cropped out about 15 pounds of her breasts.
  • Raidy11Moon, on 11/11/2009, -0/+9Ok DIGG, on behalf of all Dominicans. We are not ignorant and as crazy as the new White Sammy Sosa
  • CaptainNoPants, on 11/11/2009, -1/+9Most times people that alter themselves significantly do it because they're trying to look on the outside what they feel on the inside.

    Inside I feel like tacos, but I haven't found a solution that doesn't make me crap ice cream....yet

  • airwalke, on 11/11/2009, -0/+7If it was just the picture, wouldn't the woman to the left appear just as washed out? My BS meter is going haywire with this story.
  • CaptainNoPants, on 11/11/2009, -2/+7"Not to worry, Sammy Sosa is Just Rejuvenating His Skin"

  • Snuffs, on 11/11/2009, -0/+3He's being possessed by Michael!
  • inactive, on 11/11/2009, -0/+3In college I got off the bus with a Korean girl who promptly pulled out her umbrella in the middle of summer. It confused the ***** out of me so I asked my Korean classmate who used to be in the LAPD what the deal was about and in Korea the lighter skinned you are, the more you are seen as being of wealth. Of course being a pale white boy I asked if I would be a pimp over there and he nodded.

    ¿Qué te pasó Sammy? En primer lugar los esteroides y ahora estás Michaeling? ¿Dónde terminará?
  • Shogun213, on 11/11/2009, -1/+4Man I'm sorry to hear that
  • boardthis, on 11/11/2009, -2/+4i dont understand the question. can you translate it to spanish please?
  • wigren, on 11/11/2009, -0/+2Any more messed up than spray on tanner?
  • WinkyMcGee, on 11/11/2009, -1/+3"Sosa may say he's not as white as he appears or that it's not a big deal, but that doesn't change the fact the whole process is creepier than Mad Men's Pete Campbell."

    Uhh... Pete isn't creepy.
  • jpartridge, on 11/11/2009, -0/+2I thought he had a monkey.


    Maybe it was a zombie monkey.
  • Cannonballkid, on 11/11/2009, -1/+3It looks like he's trying to deny his African heritage with this skin bleaching nonsense
  • jpartridge, on 11/11/2009, -0/+2http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anal_bleaching
  • brandonb, on 11/11/2009, -1/+2it's soooo real.

  • TheCollective00, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1It would not be made out of gold...
  • Seidoger, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1Its just making him ugly like what most things celebs do to their faces. I don't know why they do such, he was looking just fine, now he isn't.
  • mine4321, on 11/11/2009, -3/+4What happened to you Sammy? First the steroids and now you're Michaeling? Where will it end?
  • Propethic, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1Oh you asians.

    Asians in the U.S. want to be dark skinned, except for the mega-asians who use umbrellas in the summer, and those back in the motherland want to be whiter
  • EvilDeadAsh, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1The three shades of Gay Frankenstein.
  • Clodhopper, on 11/11/2009, -1/+2He looks like he is dying. If that is his goal than I applaud him.
  • inactive, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1I bet it took Sammy 20 takes to do that one line for that Sony game.
  • dark2025, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1I used to say that every morning before my bathroom mirror broke a couple of weeks ago.
  • inactive, on 11/11/2009, -1/+2Is he bleaching his ***** too?
  • Kimera2006, on 11/15/2009, -0/+1http://digg.com/d31A4E6
  • hummstheword, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1You found a way to crap ice cream?
  • firstyear7d, on 11/11/2009, -0/+1Maybe he went to the dermatologist for a rash and promptly forgot how to speak English. After two weeks of using the cream he was prescribed....white Sammy.
  • Navicerts, on 11/10/2009, -2/+2http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sypw9MiAZFI&fea ...
  • crackerjack20, on 11/11/2009, -2/+2That seems like a pretty gay thing to do to yourself.
  • l1tay2, on 11/11/2009, -0/+0this is hilarious...great read.
  • robdazomba, on 11/11/2009, -1/+1Ah, that makes sense, but I wonder what they did with the excess penis tissue.
  • sat0shi, on 11/11/2009, -1/+1A Japanese one for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrFWzbPabMA

    My wife always uses a sun umbrella during the summer, and can't leave the house without putting sunscreen all over any exposed areas of her body. She's whiter than me, although I am kind of a darker skinned white guy.
  • DaneGleesac, on 11/11/2009, -5/+4So he got a caucasioplasty, what's the big deal?
