The Light-Skinned Sammy Sosa
SMOKE BREAK By Gotty™ on November 8, 2009 at 4:56 pm
This is Sammy Sosa (pictured with his wife Sonia) on November 4, 2009 @ some event offering a person of the year and the photo is making the rounds today. Words tossed around with it? Michael Jackson, steroids, vitiligo, skin-bleaching…hell if I know. I dunno. All I do know is something in the milk ain’t clean © Fresh.
Update: Looks like Sammy reads TSS (who doesn’t?), saw your comments and decided to address his skin transformation, saying that he’s “not trying to be Michael Jackson.”
“He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin,” Polihronis said. “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.” [Chicago Tribune]

no homo.

^HAHAHAHA!! U wild!
Remember that movie Livin Large from like ‘90 with Kyle from Living Single in it? Dude went from pecan brown to cocaine white..WoW!
Sammy thinks if he’s white he has a better chance of getting in the Hall.
Nope.
This CAN’T BE REAL. No way. That had to have been one hell of a flash on that camera or something.
look @ his contacts and chemically processed hair.
he wants to be white.

The reason for Sammy Sosa doing this is that he is prepping himself for a role in the next movie in the Twlight Saga (Eclipse).
Method baseball player and also a method actor, just like Robert Downey Jnr in Tropic Thunder.
Sammy Jackson?
Hey, remember that C Thomas Howell flick called Soulman where he swallows a load of tanning pills, passing himself off as black, so he gets a full scholarship to attend Harvard Law School?
Is that how it used to work in 1980s, if you were black then they gave you a full scholarship to attend an Ivy League Educational Establishment?
The film was dope, he falls in love with Rae Dawn Chong and then his card gets pulled when they all realise that he is really a white dude passing off as a black dude and James Earl Jones is up in that piece too, Luke I Am Your Father! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
Look what I’m saying is this, if Sammy Sosa wanna lighten up his skin tone, then that’s his choice, it ain’t as if he is the first dude to do this and wot not.
Black people want be white and white people want be black, it is what it is.
Two tears in a bucket, fuckit, let’s take it to the stage and deal with it.
That pic is just freaky lol.
WHAT!?!?! This is NOT Sammy….LOL
@ chronwell yeah i remember that flick! I used to watch the shit outta it! I still laugh how he got his boy fucked up for snitching about that car robbery! lol
When Barry Bonds told Sammy to use the Clear; he took it literally.
when I first saw his picture, i only vaguely recognized him… I had to read a caption to finally figure out that this is Sammy Sosa
