Lupita has a natural beauty and a wonderful smile. Beyonce looks over produced, and just plain fake. Kinda looks like Jay-Z in a wig.

“I dreamed I was on the cover of Time magazine.. in my underwear”.

It could have been worse.. you could have not been wearing ANY underwear! :)

If Beyoncé wants to be an example of women who should be respected, why is she posing in her underwear-again-on magazine covers? Apparently, the woman doesn’t own any outer clothes-she reminds me of one of the models in those I dreamed-I-did-something-totally-ridiculous-in my Maidenform bra ads from my teen years...

I have to agree with the 60’s and 70’s feminist movement when it comes to objectifying women by dressing/posing like that...

We get a free subscription that we didn’t ask for, so every week when it comes, it goes right in the garbage.

I’ll never forgive them for having two covers a few months ago: one in Europe criticizing the idiot living in our White House, and one for the stooges in America about should athletes be paid. I’ll never for give them for that . . . it’s a garbage POS.

The Lupita chick was in “12 Years A Slave”. Therefore she is not only Most Beautiful, but Most Intelligent, Most Compassionate, and All-Around Most Wonderful Female in the Universe.

If you venture the opinion that plenty of women are as attractive or more so, you are a racist. If any of those women happen to be white, you deserve hanging.

I’d take Lupita Nyong’o any day over Beyonce.

Lupita really is beautiful, but I admit to having a strong preference for, shall we say, women of a duskier variety.

Beyoncé is ugly and if I saw the other one in the grocery store I wouldn’t even take notice of her.
Their agenda is showing again.

Nobody poses them like that. They pose themselves like that.

” by dressing/posing like that...”

I didn’t say anyone “posed them” like that then or now-what I said is that women objectify women by doing that-if the Beyonces of the world don’t want to be the very objects they reject, then they might consider wearing something besides underwear in their cover photos...

Honestly, the first time I saw a photo of Lupita Nyongo I thought she was a man (really). Now I think she looks like a man in drag...come to think of it, so does Beyonce.

Just sayin’...
