NEW YORK:

Singer-actress Beyonce Knowles finds herself caught in the middle of a magazine cover colour war. Radar magazine editors are claiming Beyonce’s skin colour has been lightened for the cover of Vanity, the Internet Movie Database reports. Radar have ridiculed Vanity Fair claiming it is trying to make Beyonce look “less black”. But Vanity Fair has denied the claims. The magazine’s publicist Yvette Noel-schure said: “There are very fair-skinned black people in the world and Beyonce is one of them.”
