Guys, leave her alone. Look at what she’s accomplished here. She’s only a few steps away from guaranteeing a spot in life as the first negro Rosie O’Donnell.

I just wished she had spent as much time developing her craft as she has developing her face.

JJG I was thinking the same thing! First thought that crossed my mind when I saw the pic: MJ has another sister?!

this is what happens when we don’t deal with the question of beauty in the media, and particularly in the loves of young girls. I recommend The Bluest Eye (Toni Morrison) and On Beauty (Zadie Smith) as great books that discuss the notion of beauty well.

I heard she was going for an Asian look. Why? I have no clue. I don’t get all the hype over Asian chicks (Latin women, ok, but Asians?). I do see a very slight Asian resemblance, but I don’t think she achieved what she was aiming for. But she does, somehow, look lighter.

Totally agree with you Miriam. Accepted black inferiority at its finest. So sad.

I`m only here because I saw Lamont Hill on the O`Reill Factor, whinning about his hatred for George Bush. This guy is a freakin joke, and shouldn`t be given the forum to even be known about. He`s a racist joke.

Tanya, what’s wrong with Asian women???

Thoughts on why Asian…
Historically, Asian women have been fetishized for their exotic beauty and submissiveness. A fairly brutal system of patriarchy in various Asian cultures produced this type of female or tried to, at least. Consider, for example, practices like foot binding. For decades it seems as though Western men admired this type of female and considered this an ideal femininity. No doubt women internalized this ideal, which has little to do with any truth about Asian women’s real physical appearance, desires or personalities. More recently Western women seem to have adopted an image of the Asian female as an ideal beauty in tandem with the image of the Asian woman as hyper-materialistic. Label whores with perfect straight hair, tiny features, and tiny booties. Sweet little China Dolls, in Versace. See also Gwen Stefani’s 2004 “Love Angel Music Baby” and the Harajuku girls.
So on that level, if you’re rich, and if you’re gonna go bat-shit crazy and buy a new face that looks like a different race, Asian is the one to buy. At least it was, when Kim started getting cut.

I think the lighting is bad…lol that’s the only thing I can think of as to why her complexion looks lighter. I have to agree with what some other people think… she does look related to MJ… kinda like a tan Latoya Jackson

LOL @ MrsPickron!!! She does appear to have quite a few issues, doesn’t she! Poor thing!

WYLTK,
There is absolutely nothing wrong with Asian women!
I just never got the whole hyper over them. Many men (white, black, etc.) tend to find Asian women highly desirable, more so than women of other ethnicities.
After Jordan’s explanation (I think he hit the nail on the head), I now understand why. I do see how the whole submissiveness, “me so horny”, Geisha Girl thing would get a man’s goat!
But personally, I think West Indian women, Grenadians especially, are at the top of the tier!!!

tanya, men love all women, of all shapes, sizes, colors and ethnicities, and it has nothing to do with their cultural backgrounds or popular images.
for a man, pure and simple, the fascination with women outside of your race/ethnicity is that they’re bodies are, in fact, stranger than most men are used to seeing. it is purely a natural and physical attraction well before any of that me-so-horny-foot-binding stuff comes to mind.

Tanya, I would have to agree with you on this one–”I think West Indian women…are at the top of the tier,” but I would have to say that Jamaican women take the crown!

ehh…definetly not tanya…James….we agree on something!! look at the change Obama has done already…lol
more so than who’s attracted to who and for what reason, i find it sad that so many women feel they need to medically alter their looks to look “beautiful”…..that’s the worst part about all of this…
