Supersonic 49,376 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 In 2009, former MLB slugger Sammy Sosa appeared at a music awards show sporting a much lighter complexion than he had just months earlier. The puzzlement grew so loud that Sosa went on Spanish-language television to deny that he was either sick or self-loathing, and that his new skin tone also wasn’t the result of steroid use. “It’s a bleaching cream that I apply before going to bed and whitens my skin some,” Sosa said on Univision’s “Primer Impacto” program. “It’s a cream that I have, that I use to soften [my skin], but has bleached me some. I’m not a racist, I live my life happily. We haven’t seen a whole lot of Sosa since then, but earlier this week he made a brief appearance on ESPN during its coverage of the home run derby. Let’s just say that the puzzlement only has grown louder.

boyerased 2,848 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 He looks good with the darker skin but if he wants a lighter skin so be it. It's not about race or what all the time. His nody, his choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edonis 28,590 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 This is legit concerning and I don't understand how some people in this thread are taking it so nonchalantly like "if he's happy, etc." I'm hoping this is a side effect from his meds like he says it is and he's not doing it for self-image reasons.
