Beyonce is the latest celeb to show her true face to the world in the form of un-retouched photos that appeared on various websites without warning.
The pics come from recent photoshoots for L’Oreal, Feria and Infallible, and while there’s no denying that she’s still a gorgeous woman, the unphotoshopped extreme closeups reveal that perhaps Beyonce’s not as flawless as previously thought:
Yes, Queen Bey is human, and the rabid fan collective commonly referred to as "the Beyhive" was apparently not thrilled with this revelation.
Beyonce World – the site where the pics first surfaced – was reportedly flooded with so much hate mail that administrators deleted the offending photos within minutes of when they were posted.
This being the Internet Age, of course, a few minutes was all it took for word to get out and countless other websites to post the pics themselves.
Bey is just the most recent in a string of female celebs who have had un-retouched photos go public in recent months.
Last week, an unphotoshopped Cindy Crawford image created a stir, mainly because of how beautiful the iconic model looked even without the help of digital enhancement.
Hopefully, the Bey pics will receive a similar reaction.
Either way, keep calm and carry on, Beyhive. We’re sure your queen will be back to posting adorable Blue Ivy photos in no time.
