A natural reaction to this new promo picture for Beyonce’s last album is:
Because that looks like Beyonce as much as this pasty fat blob of depressing feelings over my stomach looks like Serena Williams’ 10-pack. But some bitches aren’t mad because the “Harpo, who dis woman?” Photoshop tool was abused during the making of this picture. They’re mad because they say Beyonce was whitewashed AGAIN. Over three years ago, L’Oreal was accused of giving Beyonce whiteface filipinoface and now the #1 newspaper in Fuckeryville, The Daily Mail, says she might be at it again. They brought out some comments from 2008 that a writer for the Daily Mail made about how Beyonce is bad for Black and Asian girls:
“Too many black and Asian children grow up understanding the sad truth that to have dark skin is to be somehow inferior. Of course, black and Asian parents work hard to give their children a positive self-image and confidence in their appearance, despite the cultural forces stacked against them. But when black celebrities appear to deny their heritage by trying to make themselves look white, I despair for the youngsters who see those images.”
But the DM also spoke to some “expert” who said that Beyonce’s lighter skin color in the picture above could be from bright lights on her face and shit. To me, that’s exactly what’s going on

According to The Daily Mail, last Friday while in West Sussex, England for an annual Scientology event, John Travolta asked one of his reps to reserve a table at the local KFC for him and his guests. The KFC employee who answered the phone kindly explained to the actor’s rep that fast food chains operate on a first come-first serve basis, even if the customer was John Travolta. Sadly, the actor never got his table or his fried chicken, instead going directly to a charity dinner. A spokesman for KFC has since released a statement about the Travolta debacle: “In hindsight, of course, we would have reserved a table for him. It’s not every day you get a Hollywood star eating in your restaurant.” [Daily Mail]
Yes, it’s come to this. Again. We’re back to sticking our ultrasonic magnifying glasses over January Jones’ uterus to see who her fetus baby looks like. Mark Burnett should really turn this into a full-fledged, prime-time game show. In the meantime….
The Daily is echoing E! Online’s story about how the sperm fish that helped make January’s baby came from a dude who worked on X-Men: First Class with her. A source also tells The Daily that January won’t drop the name of her baby’s father, because he’s married!
So if The Daily and E! are speaking the truth, that means he’s male, worked on X-Men and has a ring on his taken finger. That leaves Kevin Bacon, Matthew Vaughn, Jason Flemyng, Oliver Platt, James McAvoy and dozens of married crew members on that shit. We’re almost there (not really)!
But don’t be surprised if we learn that Arnold Schwarzenegger was a silent producer on X-Men about the same time January gives birth to a buff baby who will rip his own umbilical cord off with his bare hands. January Jones is totally this summer’s Mildred Baena (but not as hot, obviously).
Jackie Cooper, who played Daily Planet editor Perry White in Christopher Reeve’s Superman movies, died Tuesday at a Beverly Hills hospital of a sudden illness. He was 88.
The onetime kid actor remains the youngest person ever to be nominated for the Best Actor Oscar, thanks to his role in 1931’s Skippy. Cooper also garnered Emmys for directing episodes of M*A*S*H* and The White Shadow. [TMZ]
