Elle Magazine's October Issue 2010 - Gabourey Sidide - Retouched or Too Black???

This video is discussing the new release of Elle Magazine's October Issue 2010. This issue featured various covers including Megan Fox, Lauren Conrad and Gabourey Sidide.

The topic is focusing on black women in Hollywood and on covers of magazines. What extent is retouching too far and what is acceptance? What do you think of this discussion?

This is only my opinion and should only be taken that way.

@58fenix Yes, LOL. I have better unretouched images I wish I would have inserted in this video... next time :(

@TruthandBeauty89 Dark Skinned is Beautiful! I think if you can rock out in darker skin it makes you 200 times more attractive than the average cookie cutter image. We've seen light skinned way too much which becomes overly redundant. I wouldn't want to be lighter than I already am and I think dark skin is definitely something to embrace proudly. 

[TruthandBeauty89]

This actually hurts me...because being dark skinned is obviously not beautiful..this is why i HATE north america because in the caribbean having dark skin is way more accepted and it's so beautiful! and I don't think your pictures are very different from how you look in this video..you're so pretty

[Girl7007]

I hope Gabourey don't get into this mess that the Hollywood stars are into!!!

[Girl7007]

Hollywood is sooooi full of shit!!!

[geniusindesigns]

No that was lighting. Not retouching love. Thanks for this.

@blackspaniard1025 By the way I am not heavy nor am I a darkskinned blk. I am athletic fit slim build but I see whats going on

[blackspaniard1025]

yes they retouched her pic to look lighter...its sad but true being real dark and big thick or fat is looked at as ugly. Im a blk female so I already know what it is to deal with this world. But, I do understand that it IS worse for heavy blk women and dark blk women to be treated as women which is what they are. People think heavy women are ugly but no one says anything about the heavy men.

[blackspaniard1025]

wow the pic in pink looks different

Skin doesn't matter. It's all about the vibe.

[bellaheartsww]

the girl is BIG if they wanted they didn't like the way she looked because she was dark, they most likely wouldn't like the way she looked bc she was big. In my opinion is was just a matter of lighting and makeup. She looks gorgeous and it has nothing to do with her skin color. Its the vibe, the smile, all of that. Leave it alone people.
