I love this magazine and usually devour it within the first day of getting it in the mail!!
I thought, like any magazine, that they doctor the cover until I noticed a couple of issues ago that they said that they don't and that the cover models work hard at what we see. Jenny McCarthy is on the latest issue but on The Ellen Show she said it was airbrushed?

Discuss.

    I read Shape! I've never heard about them not airbrushing the covers....but I'm sure they do.

    No one looks good enough to be on the cover sans a little help. (at least I tell myself that :smile: )

    I was/am positive too that they airbrushed! Even though they say they don't (I believe it was 2 issues ago on the editor's page that they said they don't) I still think they do a little something something. I emailed them about it but haven't had a response and probably won't!

    well if you do, please let me know what they have to say!
    I think it would be cool if they didn't airbrush, but i mean, i understand its a media/marketing thing.

    But congrats to Jenny - she looks AWESOME even if she's airbrushed.
