What happened to Sammy Sosa
Sammy Sosa is once again the subject of Internet buzz, but this time it's not for steroids. This time it's for skin care. Or something that might resemble skin care. Sosa made waves last week when he showed up at the Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas with a noticably lighter skin tone than he had during his playing days. So what's behind this new lighter skin tone?
"He's not trying to be Michael Jackson," said former Cubs employee Rebecca Polihronis, who talks frequently with Sosa. "He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin," Polihronis said. "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. "He is in the middle of doing a cleansing process to his skin. The picture is deceiving. He 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.' "People who saw him in person did not react the same way. He can't believe it is such a big deal."
