Sammy Sosa Pictures of Bleached Skin: Like Michael Jackson

Retired baseball right fielder Sammy Sosa has been appearing in photo’s more ‘light skinned’ recently, and has also been compared to Michael Jackson, as his skin has seemed to be getting lighter just like the late superstar.

Gradual changes that have recently occurred has made many people question what is really going on, and after the steroid accusations in 2003, the question that is on everyones lips is “Why is this change occurring 6 years later?”

Sosa has come out of the shadows and commented on these allegations claiming that his constant exposure to the sun caused him to become concerned over the health of his skin, according to RightCelebrity.com. But after looking at the photo’s Sosa was also surprised and 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.”

It is not well documented that Michael Jackson did infact have the condition called Vitiligo, which leaves blemishes and whitens the skin. It is also understood that sunlight effects you, and is another reason why Michael Jackson used masks and umbrellas to shield his face from sunlight.

Rebecca Polihronis, who worked with Sosa while he played for the Cubs backed him up and said “He’s not trying to be Michael Jackson. He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin. 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.”

Do you think Sosa is ‘Bleeching his skin?’
