Air brushing

[KiRsTyBoO]

Do u know what i hate?
celebrities being airbrushed to make them look thinner etc.
Now its just stupid...:
Beyonce has been made loads ligher on the front cover of American Vanity Fair, so she appeals to their predominantly white audience. She's only the second black women to appear on the covers since Tina Turner in 1993.
Do people agree this is wrong??

Why are celebs standing for this when they campaing against racism.

Also I really hate the fact that airbrushing is making regular girls feel insecure as they feel they have to look like them to be desirable.

What I really HATE about airbrushing is that blokes believe the women they see in mags look like that in the flesh!!

I know what you mean, it is like Rachel hunter (or rachel munter as i like to call her) models underwear and gets airbrushed!! this is just like me becoming a wonderbra model and having huge tits airbrushed on, i think it is daft!

I hate people who always say yeah i am happy with my curvy figure, then you see then all airbrushed on a front cover of a mag! it annoys me! then they lie about their weight, it's like you see a women (abi titmus springs to mind) who is a size 12-14 which is fine but then they say they weight like 9stone which is pure bollcoks!!

^ Yeah thats what I dont get... people like JLo, everyone goes on about her volumptuous figure, yet everytime you see her the shots have been edited... they get rid of the ass that people like about her.

Anyway, I think this whole airbrushing thing is bs. It sends two different signals - on the one hand we are being told, be who you are - black, white, fat, thin... then on the other... well no actually "this" is the definition of beauty - that which we sprawl on the cover of magazines - a look you'll never have.

Pfft. Just remember that simpsons episode, to stop the advertising monsters, 'just dont look' lol.
