Was Beyonce’s likeness digitally altered in this new L’Oreal print ad? She is looking a tad paler, no?  And i’m not referring to her hair color!

L’Oreal reps deny that her complexion was lightened. “We highly value our relationship with Ms. Knowles. It is categorically untrue that L’Oreal Paris altered Ms. Knowles’ features or skin tone in the campaign for Feria hair color,” the company insisted in a statement.

Come now, we all know that photoshop airbrushing is a fabulous tool, but to go lighter is just strange.  So if it wasn’t altered digitally………..  perhaps skin bleaching is to blame.

Oh God help us, she’s not turning into a female Michael Jackson is she?!  That’s one scary road to follow………
