Who is that?

Left: Sammy Sosa, Right:?????

 

[jpeirpont]

They are both pictures of Sammy Sosa.

Are they photoshoped?

Did he bleach himself a la Michael Jackson?

What's the point?

Remember the classic OJ Simpson magazine cover ( could be found on the net, but I'm too lazy ) where the publishers "darkened his picture to make him appear more "evil". That was wrong, but I don't think that would happen today.

 

[jpeirpont]

I believe he said the difference isn't as stark as it appears in the picture. Green contacts and bleached skin, I wonder why he'd make such a dramatic change.

 

[Teacher]

I do wonder how much of the difference is unintentional. I'm a photographer, and there are a lot of things (mostly flash, type/quality/amount of lighting, and exposure time) that can change skin tone -- among other colors -- dramatically. I once bought a pair of shoes off eBay, thinking they were an ugly purple color (Halloween). I mean, they looked PURPLE. When they came, they were burgundy (and cheap shoes, to boot!).

Holy cow...


...although one person involved did say "it was partly the lighting." Still....

When Sammy said he wanted to be "like Mike", I guess he got his Mikes mixed up.

 

[Joffrey]

I think who Ill be for halloween next year.

 

[rnoldh]

Maybe it was the roids for Sammy S.!


Here are the famous magazine covers with OJ:

Shameful BS on Time magazine's part. But it was about 14 years ago!

BTW: I hope OJ is enjoying his stay at the state hotel and watching his Tuches
