Who the eff cares if someone changes something about themselves. Why do you people even care? are you him, are you family with him? do you personally know him? If the answer is no to those questions, then wtf is wrong with you people. Ah i get it, society is so boring itself, that anytime some famous does something, WE must give an opinion as to why he/she did it. Simply pathetic, leave the guy alone, if he changed his skin to purple color, i’m sure idiots would still bash em. Let the guy do what he wants and leave em alone… are people so bored now?? this is retarded.

To eloise :

Your opinion is typical of most of the people I work with. unfortunately I gotta give kudos to you for admitting how you feel. Most Caucasians hide it until they get upset or out number you.
I do believe you are wrong we are (People of African Descent) not inept, or weak, however we are fools for centuries that continue to do all we can to mingle, fraternize and accept another race no matter what the consequences. When I state “we”, I should change that to a vast majority of us want this peace and love thy neighbor shit that just can’t happen.

To Carole, no offense please wake up, a Utopia we are not. Sammy has done something clearly weird which is why all of us are commenting. Sun damage is nothing but Hype. This guy suffers from denial with major inner race issues. Money fame is not enough, he has to have the white looking woman, and also be white.

mtreat9… As a person of non color, your racist comment about changing his color to suit white America is not appreciated. I did not say anything to Sammy Sosa about his skin color. He changed it on his own for his own reasons. It had nothing to do with whites forcing him to do this.

This is very pitiful that he feels he needs to change his skin color to “fit-in”. He was amazing at his craft of baseball nad he should have let that speak for itself. Michael ackson did it, now sammy who next????????????? Sad Sad Sad

1st off his skin color is black or brown. But it’s his ethnitcity that is different. So if your going to try and correct people correct them with the right info. but being a man of color it is disheartinging to see a successful man of color dramatically change his appearance to suit white america. Even though his skin will be white his features will always reflect his ethnicity but again he can change that too.

I wonder if his dark skin was caused by sun damage, has anyone seen a picture of him as a child? I think there are other creams or laser techniques that will help repair sun damage. I think he is just using that as an excuse. His light contacts, in combination with his light skin, make him almost look like an albino man of african descent. There is a documentary that covers why these albino “blacks” are in high demand and have to live together for safety (not a good story, some weird belief that the bones of an albino black person will cure cancer or something like that). Anyway, the way he looks now reminds me of those people.

I just wish people would not feel the need to change their natural looks in any way. Historically this theme of lighter skin being better, even in all-white and all-dark communities, existed and one would hope that in this modern age we would have grown past this idiotic misperception!!
