Beyonce graces the March issue of L'Officiel Paris, but it's a controversial photo of the superstar inside the French fashion magazine that's getting the most attention.
Apparently, if you are a model and you paint your face black, it's a fashion statement. However, if you are Ted Danson, then it is racist and offensive. I really don't see how it can be a trend, either way.
Plus, Beyonce is an idiot. She wants to pretend she's proud of her African heritage by painting her face dark, yet in commercial ads, her skin is whitewashed and lightened to appeal to the demographics of that magazine. I think it's quite hypocritical.
Personally, I think people should learn about the images and its history and why people may be offended by it. However, it's a thing of the past and it should stay that way.
