    Photoshop Of Horrors

    Jessica Alba is in a Campari campaign shot by photographer Mario Testino, but it seems her normal, "real" body wasn't good enough. As you can see from the before and after images, the actress's waist was whittled for the ad. Because although she is gorgeous, she just doesn't have the ribcage-less hourglass shape required to shill alcohol! Click to enlarge. [Huffington Post, via Daily Mail]

Nick Knight is responsible for dozens of global advertising campaigns and fashion editorials. "People say I'm a photographer, but that doesn't sound correct to me any more," he says.
