Open Post: Fans react to Malik Yoba wearing lipstick

That high-pitched sound you hear is Malik Yoba fans wailing at the sight of this new video that shows the hunky actor wearing lipstick and foundation.

The 50-year-old actor, best known for his role on the Fox police drama New York Undercover, posted the video on is Instagram account. Many of his female fans expressed disappointment in how comfortable the ‘Cool Runnings’ star seems in women’s makeup.

Some of Malik’s IG followers defended the actor, saying the makeup is for a Broadway acting role. But others point out that Denzel Washington never wore lipstick and foundation for an acting gig.
