The first time I saw this cover it took me a minute to recognize Michelle Obama. I thought Michelle’s man and kids were hugged up on a Hispanic woman.
I totally agree with loyal reader D. Joseph who said this cover photo of Michelle Obama looks like a cartoon.
Mrs. Obama was airbrushed to the max in order to appeal to Life & Style magazine’s target readers. Michelle Obama is nowhere near Barack’s complexion.
Clearly the white establishment media isn’t comfortable with Michelle’s strong Nubian Afrocentric features in the White House. They can only fully accept her if she looks mixed like Barack and their daughters.

I disagreed with you on the Necole thing but this shit right here.. this is straight up blatant lightening.
I looked at it and thought “why the hell do they have a cartoon depiction of Michelle when everyone is real?” They must’ve airbrushed or lightened it so much that Michelle now looks like a damn cartoon.
