LOST LOVE: AZEALIA BANKS REGRETS SAYING.................

[rdunk]

I am posting this here, in General Discussion, as I am not sure where to put it, if anywhere! First off, I am not familiar with this person. And this article is about something she obviously said that has her in a few problems. But, the reason for my posting it at all, is something that is rather startling  - look at her eyes!!!!! I wonder what has caused this obvious ?? ?? ?? unnatural looking left EYE?? I did get this at Breitbart News.

Wow, doesn't this make us wonder?? For the record, I did look at a number of other photos of her on the internet, and in all that I saw, both eyes were dark. I suppose this could be a "photo anomaly (ArMaP), or possibly some type of special contact lens. But, this pic gives her a very very erie appearance, as if...............................??!!! Also, a Roman Numeral tattoo is a bit unusual too, but not as "out of this world" looking as is her left eye l!

It looks like a contact lens. A quick search gave me this page, with some photos with a similar contact lens on the right eye.

Well ArMaP, that is what it is!! And here is some direct discussion of her using contact lens as a part of her performing.

It kind of reminds me of the contact lenses the actors wore in V, as part of their reptilian look.  It also looks a bit like a poorly made prosthetic eye.

The photograph looks like a bad Photoshop edit to take out red eye from a camera flash.

No, in the red eye effect what needs to have the colour changed is the pupil, the central area of the eye, as what we see is the light reflected by the back of the eye and that is captured by the camera.

In the photo from the opening post the white area corresponds to the iris, like what happens with contact lens.

The red eye effect is not related to the colour of the iris, although people with blue eyes, having usually lighter skin colour, are more likely to show a stronger red eye effect than people with darker eyes.
