Since When TMZ, Since When…

TMZ’s camera man must have gotten smacked by Mathew Knowles, they’ve got it out for Beyonce and L’Oreal...look at this post just put on their page about Beyonce’s L’Oreal ad they jumped on the late bus for and let us know what you think of it:

Beyonce, or L’Oréal for that matter, probably had no idea that an ad for hair color would cause so much controversy. I am an African-American woman and I work for TMZ. Yes, TMZ hires Black people.

I saw the new L’Oréal ad a few days ago, and it struck a nerve. There’s still a stigma of Black celebs acting “too Black.” This ad re-enforces that negative portrayal.

Why can’t a powerful, talented African-American woman be celebrated for her natural beauty? L’Oréal claims they didn’t change Beyonce’s appearance, but who are they fooling? L’Oreal obviously wanted to make Beyonce look white.

The L’Oréal ad is disrespectful and dismissive to the Black community. And L’Oréal’s explanation is lame.

My name is Nina and I approved (and wrote) this message.

Since when does TMZ have any right to stand on the moral high ground. In between show shots of Paris Hilton and Britney Spear’s pussies they decide to give us all a lesson on racial equality……..get the fuck outa here.

I think beyonce is the one with the problem! have you seen her ring the alarm video, when she was whiter than in this pic with fake green eyes and platinum blonde hair. DON’T JUST BLAME L’OREAL. Beyonce needs to stop trying to look like a barble doll and embrace her natural beauty…..
