    There is absolutely, literally (literally!) no question about whether this image was altered-- it was. The question is, to what extent was it altered. Little things like blotchy skin, shadows, flyaways are always fixed. But a retoucher can obviously take it to that next step where body parts are slimmed, posture is changed, etc.

    I completely agree with the photographer. Anyone who has worked in this industry can tell that the image has been worked on. It may not have been the final proof, but color corrections and contrast adjustments were made. It also seems that her eyes were whitened amongst other things. It's very easy to do a quick retouch when selecting the final product, which helps to give a better idea about the end result. This is probably what Demi got ahold of.

    honestly I wouldn't have noticed anything amiss if it hadn't been pointed out to me. it just looks like she's quite thin with narrow hips. but the most disturbing thing is her butchery of the English language. *shudder*

    I have mixed feelings about this. Half of me is thinking, "Who cares?" Not, mind you, because photoshopping isn't a problem, but rather because calling Demi out on her photo seems tasteless and petty. The magazine's editorial staff and photographer should be held accountable, not the actress, in my opinion.

    On the other hand, I find it really annoying that Demi would claim that the photo is not re-touched. It comes across as paranoid and shallow--like when people have had obvious plastic surgery (cough, cough) and claim to the contrary. She's beautiful and having had help by re-touching or cosmetic procedures does not take away from that. I fail to see the point in lying.

    @femme-bot: If this isn't retouched though... aren't we all bodysnarking?

    I think the waist-hip-shoulder thing might be that she is really skinny and twisting her hips to one side while holding her shoulders/face directly forward. Does that make sense?

    @BeckySharper: well her right shoulder is tilted downwards, which accounts for the longer arm..

    @BeckySharper: That could be because she is standing in counterpost, but they've fiddled around with the photo so much you can't see it. Normally in counterpost, the hip would stick out, but I think they've made her hips narrower

    We imagine female members of the armed services would be among the many upon whom the charm of such a campaign is lost.

    Yes, thank you for articulating why I hate this campaign. For the campaign to be successful, you have to assume that everybody in the military is a straight man and all women were just waiting at home (in sexy clothes) for the men to return. Believe it or not, there are WWII veterans who also happen to be women.

    Why even get live humans to waste their time posing for these pictures anymore? Can't they just Google up some stock photos and cobble together a composite image?

    Why pretend that what we're looking at is representative of a human? She's already a very attractive person! Give it a rest!
