You would think that in the 21st century, overt racicism would be all but a memory. Yet we see time and again, supposedly intelligent, well read and experienced people still making foolish decisions that harken back to an age that one would rather forget.
So it happens again with the cover of FHM men's magazine which portrays a beautiful white model, "coming out of the shadows" What shadows you ask? Black women! Yes, these are beautiful black models who are used to represent shadows. Interestingly, it is on the cover of the FHM Fillipines which is a country with an ethnic population. Perhaps they thought that no one would notice or care. They were wrong. The issue caused such an uproar that it was pulled and will be reissued with a different cover. But the damage as already been done and I will not be buying this magazine again.
Butt Naked Celebrity Gossip, is a site that shows you celebrities at their most vulnerable. The butt naked celebrity is a celebrity who is unmasked, undressed and naked for the world to see. The site is intended to give you a glimps into celebrity life showing their vulnerablity which is similar to that of any other person. Celebrities lie, cheat, use drugs, behave badly just like to some of their fans. The are also great parents, faithful to their partner and do good for humanity.
