Sammy Sosa Is A White Dude Now

Sammy Sosa used to be a black dude. Not anymore…

The cause of Sammy’s skin condition is unknown, but guesses from around the web include vitiligo (a skin-whitening genetic condition that Michael Jackson claimed to suffer from), repercussions from steroid use, and “really bad makeup.”

But a former Cubs rep told the Tribune he’s going through some sort of skin rejuvenation process.

“He’s not trying to be Michael Jackson,” Rebecca Polihronis told the paper. “He was surprised he came out looking so white.”

Polihronis, who says she talks frequently with Sosa, thought it was a body double when she saw the picture. She said part of why it looks so white is “just the lighting.”

“The picture is deceiving,” she said.
