Sammy Sosa Bleached Skin?

Former baseball star Sammy Sosa is on the defense over reports that he has bleached his skin after he was snapped with his wife Sonia Sosa at the Latin Grammys last week sporting a very pale/white face.  Even his eyes are a different color.

Former Cubs employee and close friend of Sosa, Rebecca Polihronis chatted with the Chicago Tribune saying:

“He’s not trying to be Michael Jackson.  He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin. Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double.  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.”
