Former child star Lark Vorhies is 38 now, and finally she’s happy in her own skin. Why can’t we be happy for her?
Yesterday, the woman known to millions of Saved By The Bell fans as “Lisa Turtle” appeared on a segment of Yahoo’s The Yo Show hosted by the flamboyant Michael Yo.
Married with one child, Lark appeared to be relaxed and quite content after all these years living in the shadow of her perky TV character. Lark probably doesn’t care that her mature appearance has sparked such an uproar on social networks such as Twitter.com.
Did she have plastic surgery? Is she bleaching? Maybe. But shouldn’t her skin be lighter if she was bleaching? Does she wear a ton of makeup? Yes, but most women do because they fear they will be judged harshly if they don’t.
Yes, kids, stars get old. And some of them drop the pretenses of going through the motions of maintaining Hollywood’s standard of beauty.

Can’t watch the video, but Lisa..i mean Lark was a pretty girl back in the day. As an actor, sometimes you just have to own a character if that’s your way of paying the bills, or you could just take it off in Showgirls and call it the day
She doesn’t look like she is comfortable in her own skin. She looks like she is trying to hold off the aging process. She’s looks scary in the 2nd pic.
Good morning folks
Can’t see the video but Lark was beautiful back in the day! I watch old episodes of Saved by the Bell and it’s shocking she didn’t blow up
DAMN YOU LIL KIM!!!! I blame your mighty porphin’ power ranger face for this shyt!!!
too much make up, the wrong color foundation. lark what’s going on?
I mentioned this last night on here. This is sad that she felt the need to do this!
Why did she feel the need to fool with her nose…Is pig snout the new look? My Lord this is an American tragedy…Mia Campbell, now Lark…who is next? These ladies were stunning
Morning fam!
people change….but that makeup disaster is preventable. using lighter makeup does not make you look lighter u just look ashier chalky and zombie like.
Lark looks like she’s about 30lbs heavier and is wearing the wrong makeup (too much shadowing and countouring) for the cameras. Her hairstyle is matronly but otherwise, the only big difference is the weight.

@Gypy, I watched the cinnamon challenge video and I peed a lil from laughing so hard
Fugg happened to Lark? Lisa Turtle was that BISH.
I blame Bill Bellamay’s corny azz for her downfall (“How To Be A Player”)

You should be
@Kdub
I blame Red and Mef ( How High )
she did her own makeup (looks like she’s been watching too much rupaul) instead of leaving it to a professional. aside from that, i think she looks great.
I dont see anything wrong with her is it my computer, she gain some weight but that is normal when you get older
As a makeup artist I can say she needs to shoot not fire, but shoot whoever did her face like this. No way would I let a client leave looking like this. Really I don’t know if she has surgery it could all be bad contouring and highlighting on the artist part.
Hey @ Iheart- sorry didn’t mean to make you pee yourself.
Waddup Kdud? And I blame Screech for all that he said on Celebrity Fit Club. I think she felt gross after seeing him!
That make up is horrendous. She looks like she studied Lil Kim’s Youtube makeup channel dilligently. Wrong move.
*shudders*
I just watched the vid.
Lark looks like an extra in a Kabuki theatre production down at her local Japanese rest.
Da fugg wrong with her makeup? NO. Just fuggin NO.
Yall maybe I’m wrong but its more than just a makeup issue and some weight, she looks sick in my opinion…Kinda reminds me of how Bernie Macks face swelled up before he passed
Something is off with her eyes… They need to ban dark lipstick, HATE IT!
@Creamy, Go buy a new computer ASAP cause if you dont see THAT fukkery that’s on her face it’s def something wrong with your computer
Damn, I heard about this on Twitter last night…guess I’ll watch the vid on my phone real quick…
She was always so PRETTY…
I can say she needs to shoot not fire, but shoot whoever did her face like this.

Same shat I just said.
Hey @Gyp and @Iheart and all the folks :wave:
Yall be blessed an have a good Friday.
*Back to lurking*
She probably looks fine under that bad make-up
I wonder she will get back with Martin now that he’s getting a divorce
Way too much makeup…and her nose looks larger because she’s gained weight…
This song always makes me feel sooooo good!!

Speak the word you will be healed
Speak over yourself
Encourage yourself in the lord
oooohhh oohh

Her makeup is messed up but other than that she looks fine…her hair is laid
Mamacita, KDub, FeFe, iheart, cheeks, Vdot, gypsy, Candi, MrsKay, free, et al (shout out to FeFe)

Poor Lark she has fallen into the Sammy Sosa Trap. She has over bleached and unatural skin tones are hard to match by make-up. Especially on once black skin. She was a perfect brown now she is a scary pale. That to me is NOT comfortable in your skin…
Mother J
Didn’t Martin dump her to be with someone else…that was dirty
Fe
Heeeeyyyy Kdub,Gypy,Naija,Fe,MotherJeff,Wut,Creamy and anyone I missed
Happy Friday Yall

________________________________________________________
Yep! She did not find out the engagement was off until he announced that he was engaged to that Miss Virginia chick that is now married to Emmitt Smith…
She looks a hot ass mess, no need to sugar coat it!
Naija
I think he did, I know they did that
together. Its a shame that Martin looks better than she does now, even though he be looking broke down sometimes too. I think Lark just needs to stop doing her own makeup 
Sistaaaaah!!!
@Wut, I read that in Suge Avery’s voice
This “Selective Sandra High Road” be ticklin’ thee absolute $HIT out of me. LMAO!
Now, if this were Beyonce’ she would have been a “completely worn out lounge/burlesque singer whose career has been over for years, but because she spent so much time under those lights and not getting sleep trying to remain relevant instead of raising her “procured daughter”, she was taking advantage of photo ops and studying youtube videos and now, it’s all caught up with her..”
For LARK… she’s simply wearing too much make up and aging, huh? LMAO!
First thing’s first… LARK ain’t worked since she was a teenager and THAT kind of extreme ain’t as simple as age and make-up… either she’s ill, or she’s had surgery(s) – I’ma go with the latter.
The College Years were soooooooooooooooooo wack

Hey Naija
<- really a makeup remover wipe for Lark
That makeup is hideous

Good Morning everyone
Where’s Tatted
We need her to post makeup tips for Lisa Turtle STAT cause that is just wrong on sooooo many levels 
@Naija
yeah, ‘The College Years’ were a waste of time…
@VDot
you gone let Lark be great….but yes her and Martin were actually engaged
I’m so mad at her for how she looks! I used to be proud when they said I resembled her a little. I better not hear that now.
@Fay, Maybe some whip will help whatever she has going on with her face
I was so in shock forgot to speak to everyone, Hello my loves

jenie
Won’t be on all day. Doing a half day. My baby’s prom is tomorrow! :woot:

Good Morning everyone!
T.G.I.F!!
I think she is sick and trying to hide it horribly
Hello everyone
@Anna
Definitely….
@Naija
@Carrington, she was several little movies after high school, How High, How to be a player, and a few more @ Gypsy
I know your excited !
@H-Town
Yeah she has gained weight which can sometimes be a sign of being sick, her face is puffier than I’m used to seeing it…
Looks like she has had a nose job, maybe a lil bleaching, and botox
She really is not that much lighter than her other skin tone. But who ever did her make up and hair needs to be

FeFe
Morning All!!!!
Lark is suffering from the same syndrome as Lil Kim. The doctor should have their license suspended.
Morning Ms. Fashion
I agree. Her face looks similar to Toni Braxton’s face (lupus), or that of someone on steroids or something so I won’t say anything negative
If she is sick, I wish her a speedy recovery.

Did yall know she dated Zack from Saved by the Bell for about 5 years? That Bish!!!! #JealousMuch
I loved me some Zack back in the day!!!
@Bibi
I think maybe the constant attention paid to their looks can cause an unhealthy obsession with looking perfect all the time. If you are less than attractive, but smart as hell and successful to boot then you can do pretty much anything, but sometimes highly attractive people are stuck in a box. They are expected to be bimbos and block heads when that may be the furthest thing from the truth.
Some are taught from a young age to rely on looks (especially woman) and never learn that looks can and will fade so when it happens and reality sets in they can’t handle it IMO.

iono bew, but it’s true
First off, I think she is sick. She could have Vitalgo cause her shoulder seems to have her original color.
Also, she obviously had “work” done.
She was around yt people too long and was compared to them too often. Just like MJ.
Why when our people start getting “work” done they gotta poison their skin too? SMH. I hope their is more to it thats she’s just not telling.
FEFEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

@Ms.Fashion
She just said on the video that she did NOT date him, that it was an untrue rumor…

U r right…especially in hollywood the pressure has to be ridiculous because there are too many women and men ruining their looks…

That was the first thing I thought. Just couldn’t think of possible diseases but it is a definite possibility. Also, her hair looks like a wig. That can also indicate hair loss as a result of sickness. Her voice is also really fragile.
She did have a face-lift though. Her eyes raise upward especially when she smiles. Makes it really obvious.
@Bibi
He is on my Yt Man list!!!!
Did @Man just post and it had nothing to do with tittays or azz?
Oh just wait until Kim K. does a ZMT “Where are they now,” in 5 years
Maybe shes having problems with her skin and tried to hide it with the makeup… not knowing the lighting would deflect a different picture… who knows but shes still pretty and looks happy.. God bless her
Goooootgooooooddayyun
She looks like a burn patient on chemo. 
I’m gonna
for her.
Is it me or does she looks like Coretta Scott King?
Lark was rumored to have been on cocaine which can definitely reshape a nose.. And her makeup is horrible… Foundation she’s wearing is for a lighter complexion person… Smh

Yep.
Maybe on the day that she was buried……
Ya’ll see how see was holding her face when she laughed to stop it from busting open?….Surgery

she has Lupus? So does Toni Braxton and her face dosen’t look like this..
It was rumored.
And Toni’s face does look bloated at times on the show…and her skin looks ashy.
I have seen people up close and personal who had advanced lupus and their appearances are similar.
Wooow OMG, I heard it was vitilgo (sp?) or whatever…
Looks like a bad makeup job to me. With all this hi-def TV they have to go overboard with the makeup. I think the makeup artist on set did a horrible job on this low budget set.
