Sammy Sosa Is Not Trying To Be Michael Jackson

One of Sammy Sosa's friends has come out to defend him after a picture of him looking like he's on step 3 of "Michael Jackson's Guide to Beauty" started making people talking. Rebecca Polihronis, a former Cubs employee who talks to Sosa all the time, told the Chicago Sun-Times that he's in the process of going through a laser treatment to his skin after spending years playing in the sun.

Rebecca said, "He's not trying to be Michael Jackson. He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin. 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.' People who saw him in person did not react the same way. He can't believe it is such a big deal. He has always been concerned with the way he looks. Probably just bad timing going to an awards show."

REJUVENATION PROCESS?! Unless Sosa was born a baked potato, this "rejuvenation process" is not working. Get a refund. Seriously, I just want to throw a stick of butter and a tub of sour cream on him (hold the chives).

And what does Sammy have to say about those swap meet-bought lemur contacts in his eyes? Let me guess? Eyeball rejuvenation? Bitch should get brain rejuvenation while he's at it.

I shouldn't say that. If Sammy is okay with little children running for the nearest church after seeing him, then good for him.

I found a HOTTEST club http://www.MixedConnect.com for black Women and white Men, or black Men and white Women, to interact with each other. Interracial is not a problem here, but a great merit to cherish!

I went looking for photos because I wasn't familiar with Mr. Sosa's eye color. After looking at a few, I think that yes, he is wearing contacts in that photo on the right.

But now that I've seen more photos, I also think his skin was not always as dark as the photo on the left. Compared to some others I saw, that photo looks like he had recently had a lot of sun exposure, and maybe even some hyperpigmentation from inflammation from shaving.

It certainly wasn't as light as the one on the right, but the difference between the one on the right and other photos I found is not quite as drastic as it is in the two on this page.

This one, for example:

http://www.unlikelymoose.com/more/smile/sammy.html

:::My ass gets lighter in the winter, but it is only 1 foundation shade lighter. I don't go from negro to gringo overnight.:::

You would with a deep enough laser peel. Well maybe not overnight, but once the dead skin flaked off and the skin beneath began to heal.

I'm not kidding when I say that lasers will literally burn pigmented cells off. And it takes a while for more melanin to come to the surface - at least 28 days, longer depending on age and genetics, among other things.

Granted, a hydroquinone peel would have a similar effect as far as lightening goes, and that could be achieved in a very short period of time, but it wouldn't have the tightening effect that a laser peel has. And from his before/after pictures, I think Mr. Sosa's skin has tightened a bit.

:::If you're albino pale, and you get the Sosa treatment, do you become black?:::

No, you become translucent pink. Heh.

The hairline just looks to me like it's just a different, longer hairstyle. I have no idea about the eyes. They could just look different because of the contrast with his lighter skin, or he could be wearing contacts.

As for the rest, you'll know in 6-12 months if he was trying to lighten his skin or if he had treatments for some legitimate reason (a lot of variables determine how long repigmentation will take). If he's lightening on purpose, he'll probably keep it up. If he isn't, his skin will probably darken as time goes by and melanocytes replace the melanin that was burned off.

And, re the hands and ears, a lot of skin cancer occurs on hands and ears, particularly the left hand and ear (in the USA), because of UV exposure through car windows. So it's reasonable for those areas to be treated, as well as the neck, upper part of the chest, and forearms. Those are the areas that get the most UV exposure.

Medium to deep peeling of the skin, via either laser or chemical peels, removes precancerous cells and promotes the growth of healthy cells. So there is a legitimate medical reason to have it done. Not saying that's absolutely why he did it, but it is possible.

And just to clarify, I am in no way a fan. Baseball, like most sports, bores me to the point of catatonia. I just know enough about the procedures and possible reasons for having them to not automatically assume he's trying to go gringo.

Dgrin's picture

I still think the eye effect is cause of the contrast with his skin he always had those wet brown eyes but they matched his previous complexion better.looks like his hairline triangle shape is different too is he the same person or what?!

Grace Disful's picture

Sorry. That is some PET SEMATARY shit right there!

I'm very superficial, I hate everything official.

Yeah just admit that your unhappy with your culture, race, and heritage. Because obviously he is wearing lighter eyes, and obviously his hair has been permed! He looks like a fucked up Ricky Ricardo! Its so unnatural. He looks like shit!

phunkymama's picture

Why would you mess with nice, dark skin? Black don't crack baby!

kdracofan's picture

For real? No seriously what is he doing!? Is he that ashamed of the way he looks? What a shame

LALALALOVE's picture

HAHAHAH You fucking kill me, MK! "rejuvenation process" my fucking ass.

...............
Back to Black. Oh, AMYYYY!

KD's picture

Did he get the size of his upper lip reduced, too, or is that just from being stretched out? Seems like it wouldn't make it that much smaller. His entire face structure looks different.

silvarga's picture

Haha, "Skin Rejuvenation". Such Bullshit.

I wonder if he "Rejuvenated" his entire body because his hands are now a lighter color too. Unless his face and hands were like 4 shades darker than his body, I see no point to this.
He looks like he was trying to make himself "olive-skinned" and ended up at "High Yellow Crackhead"

novieskye's picture

He looks like he's sick, hopefully he'll return to his normal color soon, but as a fellow Dominican I wouldn't be shocked if he were tyrna whiten himself Dominicans are relentless when it comes to dark skin, I use to use whitening cream in my teens and would go thru ridiculous lengths to shield from the sun, at this point I don't give a monkey's ass, i'm one sexy bitch, you hear that family?! You can't bring me down cause of my chestnut complextion, suck it!

y tu mama tambien!

Dgrin's picture

I believe the lemur effect on his eyes is just the contrast of his black brother eyes on his new white skin.such a hot guy in the before pic.

agirl's picture

Bullshit. "Cleansing" does not change the color of one's skin.

i agree about the eyes... laser treatments are a precious ass excuse, but what about his weird ass eye color? either he did the lightening on purpose (WHY?!? he was so cute when he wasn't looking like an alien...) and was rocking contacts or it is indeed due to his steroid use. either way, he needs to work on fixing it ASAP.

I do laser treatments at a clinic in Ireland. I will say that he is having his skin lightened! Everyone who goes through laser treatments, KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO THEIR SKIN! It is EXTREMELY difficult to laser Samy Sosa's skin type. This took time,money,and also lightening creams. WHat a bunch of bullcaca! He loves his new skin. Just say it!

Oh yea! White people do this too! Why isn't it considered as "self hating" when they do it?

We lighten ourselves? I thought we did shake and bake ala Britney Spears. Speaking of annoying white habits, when are white people going to stop getting orange fake tans? Those are so nasty!

Soooo..I'm supposed to believe that he had a laser blasted on his skin because he stood out in the sun playing baseball for years? Some reasoning is missing here. I translate that to, "he had some work done on his face to make himself lighter". Ok most black people get darker over the years due to the sun myself included. That doesn't mean you try to lighten yourself up and use baseball as an excuse for it. Sammy has always been dark. The last time he was that light was probably when he came out the womb. Did they laser his eyeballs and his hair too?

--------------------------

I actually lighter than I was as a child cause I'm always in the house. I really need to get out more.

i kinda believe the laser thing , but his regular pigmentation will return soon if it was indeed just laser or a peeling ,his hands still look normal , so i think he just wanted smoother skin i guess we will know in a few weeks when his color goes back to normal or not !!!?

he was gorgeous. such beautiful skin. now he looks freakish and kinda like liberace. i am white and i have been guilty of tanning as i think i look better darker, so i mean, he has the right to do so. but aesthetically speaking he looked better before. don't know the dominican culture so maybe for him this is something he wants.

If it's facial rejuvenation, why are his hands lighter? Something's not right. As for contacts, I don't see that. If you look at both of these pictures, his eye color looks the same.

Ok, if he had "facial" rejuvination, then why are his ears, neck, and HANDS lighter? I call shenanigans...

Remember, the early bird may catch the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese...

And another thing., Sosa was a really nice looking guy. Hes not photogenic, so hes the type of guy that you've got to see him animated to appreciate his looks—but theres something else going on here. This guy is 40-41. Not very young, but not old either. Why has his entire face changed so much? all his features are bizzare. Black dont crack, so what the fuck is his problem? He's up to something and it aint good.

What's sad is that, by these pics, he used to be kinda studly. Now he just looks like a nerd alert.

Look here, I have a bridge to sell you. You damn fool. Some people will believe ANYTHING. No wonder there are so many cults and all that other nonsense in the world. Theres a feeble brained idiot born every second! Sheesh! Lookup Sammy Sosa going all the way back to 1989—YES, 1989! He's dark then cause thats how he was BORN. Then try to find me even one picture of him, even a shade paler than his normal black ass self. You wont find it. Not until this fuckery right here. He's on a mission to become a white Man, or at least whatever his twisted psychosis tells him to try and be. Thats why he straightened his hair and lightened his eyes. This is disgusting. We don't need another MJ. Everybody who knows to this fool should tell him right to his face what a fright he looks like and recommend a good shrink for this idiot.

He could very well have had precancerous lesions or something like that and have decided to have treatments to repair sun damage and hopefully avert further problems. Certain laser treatments do that, and so can retin-A, though it takes a much longer time to accomplish results.

They do have the effect of peeling the skin and lightening it, but after a while, the skin will return to its natural color. Also, a lot of sun damage appears as hyperpigmentation of some form or another (age spots, melasma, etc), so his skin may have been as dark as it was due to sun damage, and the treatments are just returning it to its natural color.

==================================================
I think Sammy has sold his soul to the devil because his eyes look just like those who have already & many of them are in the media today!! He just looks weird. As one person already wrote, he looks like a damn vampire.

What kind of rejuvenation was that? Where did he go to get that done? What was the name of the place & the doctor because this is just a nightmare to look at. It looks like they didn't finish and he needs to go back to the rest of the treatments. It's sooooooooooooooooooo uneven. Calling Dr Klein, MJ's derm from LA to help finish off the surface. He looks rough.

Wonder if he got much candy this Halloween?

The comment about the lighting is foolish because his wife is in both pictures & her skin tone looks exactly the same.

I know about rejuvenation treatments because I am a licensed esthetician. I work for a dermatologist and have performed them myself. They absolutely can and do lighten the skin. They literally burn off pigmented cells. Even low impact treatments like IPL will do that.
