2NE1 really “don’t care!”

2ne1_090708

Seriously. Check out the mug shots!

Without the dark makeup and flashy clothes, the girls of 2NE1 are your everyday plain janes. Really. If you saw them on the street, you definitely wouldn’t give them a second thought. In fact, the girls look the girls working the counters at Mc D’s. Nothing special.

So what’s the big deal? These makeup-less faces of girls were supposedly “leaked” to the public. And YG Entertainment is looking into how the pictures were released.

Now 2NE1’s newest single, “I don’t care” has already hit #1 on the online charts.  How appropriate.

      Are you blind? LOL

      You are in so much denial is not even funny. As you can see CL looks at least horrible. She’s also cross eyed, but that’s not her fault. Anyway, when I see her on stage trying to be sexy rolling on the floor in that ultra tight outfit it makes me want to throw up. Ugly girls should recognize they are ugly and stop trying to be what they’re not. Stick to the hip hop look. CL trying to act sexy is like WG’s Sohee trying to sing power ballads.

      • 8 Anne July 8, 2009 at 3:47 am

        calm down you guys. i said these pictures are still better than the other girls bc i just prefer these girls to the other ones no matter what. sure, if you’re gonna judge these girls based on only transient factors such as make up and clothes, then of course these mugshots are worse than pictures of wondergirls/snsd that are made up. but personally for me, i still think 2ne1 has more attitude, magnetism, and talent. and they have their own looks. that’s what makes a girl attractive. ultimately, id prefer 2ne1 even if they look like that. shrug.

          me too girl.. i agree with u.

            And if they make u throw up then dont listen to it dont watch it,Theyre just people,many people like them,and if u dont then listen to other bands,why u expect everything to be perfect?,and now u have to say that?wtf stupid ,man stupid people these days,
            seems like they want everything perfect for them.

            AND THIS IS SO OLD NEWS!

            • 11 wabawabasucks July 9, 2009 at 1:59 am

              i believe you are one obsessed 2ne1 fan..
              come on girl, admit it. the only decent looking girl here is dara, and she’s just ordinary looking.

              stop defending them like you’re their hero, coz nothing can erase the fact that they just look good because they have make up on their faces and maybe surgery…

              you’re so pathetic, you know.

        • 12 hybridsmbr July 8, 2009 at 5:10 am

          I agree.

          As the saying goes, beauty is only skin deep.

          One reason as to why I like 2NE1 is that I feel each member is individualistic and have their own unique look/appearance. In other words, they don’t look like clones of each other as some of the other girl groups do. Sure, they’re not “perfect”, but they are definitely talented, which I’d take any day. There are plenty of good looking girls out there that can’t do half the stuff that 2NE1 can.

  3. 13 sweetgirl July 8, 2009 at 2:20 am

    First!!

    lmao…the power of make up the first girl on the first row looks pretty decent

  4. 22 hmmm July 8, 2009 at 2:25 am

    dara still looks pretty good imo, just a bit tired. Bom’s double eyelid surgery is way too plain to see w/out make up… and well… minzy and cl… L O L. I guess I don’t really have to say anything about them, right?

  5. 24 IAMAFAN July 8, 2009 at 2:26 am

    Oh seriously, these girls really look funny…
    they’re not as attractive without make up…

    poor things. the one wearing white shirt looked like a fish vendor. lol!!!

    well, at least they can sing.

  6. 25 geez July 8, 2009 at 2:36 am

    old! Already saw this off asianfanatics.net
    but they still look funny!

  7. 26 Wock July 8, 2009 at 2:38 am

    I don’t care for that crossed eye retard

  8. 27 um July 8, 2009 at 2:43 am

    omg whos the oone wearing the white shirt ????????????????????????????????????????????????????

  9. 29 kp July 8, 2009 at 2:53 am

    Dara looks the best out of the four.
    CL eh….hmm..I’m shocked.

  10. 31 garyg July 8, 2009 at 2:54 am

    I don’t think CL could have a worse hairdo there.

  11. 32 eaststarska July 8, 2009 at 2:59 am

    hmmm i think dara and park bom look decent no matter how tired they look, minzy doesnt look too different but OMFG CL is like…OMFG i dont even know what to say

  12. 33 ??? July 8, 2009 at 2:59 am

    how…ironic O_O

  13. 34 sarka July 8, 2009 at 3:03 am

    i still love 2ne1. so yeah, they dont look as good without makeup, hairstyling, and clothes, but what does that matter. i think image is overrated. these photos were just taken at a bad angle, lighting, and im sure that even w/o makeup they would look better than these pictures in real life. i feel bad that these photos were leaked and the girls now have to go through all that criticism, but it comes with fame.

  14. 35 boom July 8, 2009 at 3:32 am

    when it comes to 2ne1, it’s because they don’t have make up. but when it comes to other girl groups, it’s because they had plastic surgery. how interesting.

  15. 36 mommy July 8, 2009 at 3:33 am

    the 1st two are really shocking.

  16. 37 silverneotwilight July 8, 2009 at 3:33 am

    whoooo!
    idk if whoever released those picz online should be praised or punched. haha.
    those are sooo HORRIBLE! lmaooo.
    XD

  17. 38 kim July 8, 2009 at 3:37 am

    well at least they’re not fake and plastic XO

  18. 39 yglovaa July 8, 2009 at 4:01 am

    ohhh calm down were not pretty girls too its ok 2ne1 is stilll pretty even though cl looks like a monkey there still cool ~ SO PLEASE DONT HATE HTEM JUST CUZ THERE NOT PRETTY WITHOUT MAKEUP OH NAD SANDRA IS NOT THAT BAD AND BOM

    • 40 hybridsmbr July 8, 2009 at 5:15 am

      Lmao. Your comment is funny.

      I will agree that CL isn’t pretty, but I don’t think she’s butt ugly either. She seems to be a cool girl who knows how to put a show, sing, rap, and dance—so that’s good enough for me. :D

  19. 41 sweetice July 8, 2009 at 4:03 am

    CL…atleast she wasn’t gone to plastic surgery unlike SNSD, yes they are pretty but fake face..and slut-attitudes..

  20. 43 Jane. July 8, 2009 at 4:08 am

    Where’s CL?

  21. 44 Yuuki July 8, 2009 at 4:16 am

    WOW make ups can change the world!!!!!!!!! LOL HAHHA THE PICS ARE KINDA FUNNY HEHEHHEHE

  22. 45 OLDNEWS July 8, 2009 at 4:22 am

    THIS IS OLDNEWS.
    WTF.

  23. 46 zero July 8, 2009 at 4:24 am

    everyone and their moms known bom went through plastic surgery.

  24. 47 mee July 8, 2009 at 4:28 am

    haha this pic is funny ,but it’s still ok ..hha love 2ne1 ~

  25. 48 yunjae-thelove; July 8, 2009 at 4:28 am

    hmm well Sandara still look very pretty even without makeup.
    Park bom looks really tired tho.
    anw,makeup does wonders although its not that much of a difference.

  26. 49 amy July 8, 2009 at 4:31 am

    park bom she scares me shes like so perfeect …. and her eyes their so big for korean . eh shes just bored lucky i guess . and CL the girls got talent but shes so not cute . the rest are okay .

  27. 50 Mikaela July 8, 2009 at 4:33 am

    when I pulled up the popseoul front page and saw the first half of the pictures, I thought they were comparing “Dara” to the fugly person on the right side…… then I kept reading………………. and it’s CL???
    my apologies to CL… she’s my favorite, BUT sans make-up and dressed up hair……………… well………….. i’m just glad she can rap and sing……………

  28. 51 SHINee Luv XD July 8, 2009 at 4:45 am

    woah…they look really different without makeup…

  29. 52 nozomi05 July 8, 2009 at 4:48 am

    dara doesn’t look she had anything done on her face, since she looks the same from a couple of years before. and i think every girl knows the power of well applied make-up. just cant understand why so many people commenting on how 2ne1 look when we all know that good make up can make a ugly girl look decent and a beautiful girl look spectacular.

  30. 53 seoulli July 8, 2009 at 4:49 am

    wow thats crazy I still find them very pretty

  31. 54 juju July 8, 2009 at 5:07 am

    they’re not pretty girls, but they’ve got talent!

  32. 55 grumblebunnyz July 8, 2009 at 5:11 am

    wtfffffff!
    never knew the power of makeup could be so great! They are so… diff

  33. 56 petchay July 8, 2009 at 5:12 am

    these were photoshop!!!

  34. 57 ST@R July 8, 2009 at 5:16 am

    If they are photoshop then that’s a sigh of relief.
    If they aren’t photoshop, then make up & surgery makes up for than half of their beauty. But it’s not the outside that is supposed to matter..it’s the talent. [:

  35. 58 itchyone July 8, 2009 at 5:17 am

    if people want to get plastic surgery to make themselves feel better … then by all means go ahead. I have no problem looking at pretty people regardless if they’re natural or plastic.

    There’s a problem when people over do it .. and don’t know the difference.

    PEACE

  36. 59 luvluv July 8, 2009 at 5:27 am

    Wow! Wonder who took those photos in the first place?
    But I’m still lovin these girls!

  37. 60 wow July 8, 2009 at 5:33 am

    at least none of them look sickly and gross like some american celebrities lol i mean CL especially looks unpleasant, but to be fair i think the first girl on top and the first girl on bottom are wearing a little bit of make up, you can tell. also none of them are smiling maybe this was taken on a bad day or a day they were tired.

    by the way, why would YG make them take pictures without makeup and making those long faces?

    • 61 jen July 8, 2009 at 5:41 am

      they took those pics becuase this is what they give their stylists and make up artists, etc. to see which style matches the girls best.

      also, bom and dara had no makeup. if they did, i;m sure they’d try to cover the dark bags under their eyes before anything else. they’re just naturally pretty

  38. 63 ushik0 July 8, 2009 at 5:35 am

    this looks like bad photoshop…

  39. 65 nawa July 8, 2009 at 5:43 am

    these pics are perfect for driver licenses/passports hahaha

  40. 66 suga July 8, 2009 at 5:52 am

    well, park bom still looks plastic no matter what

  41. 67 asdfghjkl July 8, 2009 at 5:53 am

    they should make thar their new album cover with “i don’t care on it : ]

  42. 68 Nicole July 8, 2009 at 5:55 am

    what do you mean sandara looks the best? she looks crappier than park bom (and she looks like a different person). maybe because bom’s had some plastical help but still.
    anyway, lots of stars look drastically different once you strip away their 2 inch mask of makeup. at least these girls don’t look like duplicates of each other *ahemsnsd* and have talent to boot.
    2ne1 needs to rest a bit, they’ve been nonstop since fire promotions began. no wonder they look like death.

  43. 69 Jessica July 8, 2009 at 6:03 am

    Ummm aren’t this old news?? You guys are way behind in this news…

    I still like them and still my fave girl group. Anyway the other three still look the same. CL on the other hand look like a person I will avoid if I go to jail @_@; She look so old in that picture. Like she give births to triplet…

    I think this was shot after they finish practicing their dance… Anyway if you see some of their picture without make up they don’t look this bad. I believe the people that post this tweak it a little. YG is actually taking some action about this leaked.

    I don’t care is number 1 in almost all the music charts . Plus Dara is number three on who they want to share umbrella with. Fire is number 2 or 1 in Myx Philippines. So yeah.. I don’t think this affect them much. :)

  44. 70 Richie July 8, 2009 at 6:05 am

    I think those pics would be really cool as promo photos. Its realy rebellious to promote a girl group looking natural. It will definitely get peoples attention.

  45. 71 GarfieldFan July 8, 2009 at 6:13 am

    Sandara and Bom look pretty decent to me. Minji and CL look… well, bad, but so what? Nothing to get upset about. They’re just normal gals after all. In all honesty, that makes me relieved. I feel at least a tad bit better about myself.
    Anyways – I wish I had their make up artist! XD

  46. 72 myv382 July 8, 2009 at 6:31 am

    I don’t care how they look! All I care about is if they have the talent to be on the stage. Everyone is freaking out because they’re not beauty queens! So what?! They are humans! It just has to come down to whether they can sing and dance like they professed!

  47. 73 crappycaller July 8, 2009 at 6:34 am

    looks like it was “photoshopped” .. sandara park has lots of ‘no make up’ photos while she was still an actress here in the Philippines and the photo does not look like her .. did yg entertainment admitted that these are real photos of the girls?

  48. 74 oh noes July 8, 2009 at 6:47 am

    wtf CL broke my heart wat the :( ,, and how is this photoshopped??? no make up just doesnt really make u beautiful
