Beyonce's fan base was up in arms after raw photos of the "Crazy In Love" singer's L'Oreal ads leaked online, showing the singer's blemishes and imperfections.
The scandal unfurled when The Beyonce World, a fan site dedicated to the 33-year-old Houston native, posted more than 200 untouched images of the singer revealing blemishes and facial flaws.
But the backlash was quick and sharp against the site, as the majority social media feedback condemned the nature of the pics, supporting the superstar singer as a true beauty regardless of how much or little the images were edited.

The images were initially taken for L'Oreal's Feria and Infallible lines.
