    I didn't know it would post gifs!
    In all my examples I've tried to find more original pics that aren't spotted all over the net, but googling bad photoshops will bring up millions of mind-blowing images.

    Wow. I have to say I totally appreciate this thread!! Thank you so much for posting. I've been struggling with my body image and wanting to look a certain way... Its so helpful to know that celebrities and models actually look like normal people!! Its such a shame and outrage that so many women and girls feel bad about themselves because of all the Photoshopping going on. 'Guess what's fake about this" will be a new game I play when I see photos now. Seriously... I always knew photos in magazines and ads were doctored to some point, but never realized to what extent. Why do they even bother taking photos at all...

    This is so amazing. I discovered the reality behind "perfect women" when my friend became a graphic designer. I always thought when you're that rich or in that industry you could afford better nutrition and personal trainers. BUT NO! those side crunches are done with a click of a mouse! Don't get me wrong, they work out like crazy but are still not goddesses.

    this is one of my faves! not only did they do all the usual skin tone tricks, but they MOVE her eye on the right.

    I think she looks sexier in the unphotoshopped version. More human and vulnerable.

    Most of these are completely ridiculous. Why shop photos of people on the red carpet?

    All these women are beautiful without any help. Jennifer Lawrence looks BETTER in the before pics!

    Terry Crews is going to be ripped no matter what so shopping his photos makes zero sense either.

    Oh well. The world we live in...

    I was a graphic designer for 6 years so none of this is new to me, but this subject never ceases to fascinate me. Great thread.
