Fans of Beyonce have lashed out on Twitter, after more than 200 alleged unretouched photos from her 2013 L'Oreal cosmetic campaign were leaked on a fan site called The Beyonce World on Tuesday.
The 33-year-old superstar, known for her hit track Flawless, appears to have uneven and pimply skin under heavily applied foundation in the supposed pre-Photoshop images.
But her legions of admirers have come out in support online, criticising the posting of the pictures, with many claiming they are not real.
Beyonce has yet to comment on the unretouched photos, which were immediately taken down by the website soon after they were posted. (They were picked up by Complex and Gawker.)
The outtakes appear to be from Beyonce's adverts for L'Oreal's Feria and Infallible products, which advertise hair dyes, lipsticks and foundations.
Due to the widespread condemnation of the images, though, the fansite has since removed them and has posted a message.
'Due to the disdain of the BeyHive, we have removed the photos,' the statement reads.
'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 parts 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.'
