I think I may have started it. Oops.

I still say that super dark skin in those two photos is enhanced by photoshop or makeup. She's not that dark in her booking photo.

I normally post part of the article. But, when I saw this woman's photos, I did not know whether the issue was her daughter using the tanning booth or the woman herself using the tanning booth.






Dayuummmmm, Gina! Black don't crack and if God doesn't give it to you, give it to yourself. Someone call that other Dr. Phil (the less cool one) and Dr. Drew.

Just quickly glancing at these photos, it reminds me of people who must wear face-covers when they receive face burns (the brownish-colored masks).

It was conflicting because ITT you deemed "blackface" to be anything that imitates, mimicks, AND mocks (which I guess you could call a formula if you want), meaning that it only qualifies if mocking is included in the intent. However, you've previously said the intent did not matter, so it could be imitating OR mocking. I was trying to clarify if you are now saying mocking has to be included in the intent or if you still believe intent does not matter--which is why I asked "and" vs. "or" and that's the question you just answered.

SNL did a take-off on her. I laughed until I cried when the supposed announcer asked "Patricia Krentcil" something like why she enjoyed looking like Wile E. Coyote right after something exploded in his face!

She walked in trailing clouds of smoke.
