UK Magazine Apologizes to Solange Knowles


The Evening Standard apologizes to Solange Knowles for photoshopping her hair...

The apology came after Solange noticed her intricate braid halo had been photoshopped off the cover of the Evening Standard and @'d the mag with the acronym for her single 'Don't Touch My Hair.'


An apology posted online reads,
We were delighted to have the chance to interview the wonderful Solange Knowles and photograph her for this week’s edition of ES magazine.
It is therefore a matter of great regret that the finished cover artwork of the magazine caused concern and offence.
The decision to amend the photograph was taken for layout purposes but plainly we made the wrong call and we have offered our unreserved apologies to Solange.
In the article, which you can read here, Solange spoke about remaining as focused on art as she is on music, despite her brilliant third album being both a critical and commercial success.
