Beyonce L'Oreal Feria Pic Causes Uproar: BeyHive Speaks Out After Photos Showing Wrinkles, Bumps Are Leaked [Pics]
Beyonce's BeyHive has been buzzing since over 200 untouched photos of the superstar leaked online on Tuesday.
The close-up head shot photos show Queen Bey in a less than flawless light, while exposing her wrinkles, bumps and uneven skin tone underneath what appears to be heavy foundation.
The photos were reportedly taken from a 2013 L'Oreal cosmetic ad campaign shoot, reports The Daily Mail. The pics were then posted on the fan site The Beyonce World.
In response, many of Beyonce's fans, commonly referred to as the BeyHive, lashed out on Twitter and criticized the unedited photos using the hashtag #BeyHiveAttack.
As a result, the fan site removed the pictures and posted an apology.
"Due to the disdain of the BeyHive, we have removed the photos," the site wrote, according to CNN. "We don't want to cause any drama, nor do we wish to start fan wars. Some of the things we have seen posted were just horrible, and we don't want any part of it. We were just posting the photos to share the fact that our queen is naturally beautiful, at the same time she is just a regular woman."
However, other fans show support for the leaked photos and praised the 33-year-old "Drunk in Love" singer for being beautifully flawed.
"Unretouched photos of @Beyonce just prove she's a real person and a natural beauty," tweeted famed Las Vegas act The Chippendales.
"Am I the only one that doesn't think #Beyonce looks horrible in these untouched photos?! She still looks better than me on most days!" wrote @SprinklesnBooze on Twitter.
Supermodel Cindy Crawford also suffered from a recent photo leak that exposed her imperfections last week after an untouched photo of the 48-year-old surfaced on the Internet.
In the photo, which was taken during her magazine shoot for Marie Claire Mexico and Latin America's December 2013 issue, Crawford is seen wearing a bra and panty lingerie set, fur coat and cowboy hat. The unedited photo also reveals her wrinkles, cellulite and body fat.
