Think Justin Bieber's Calvin Klein underwear ad was Photoshopped a bit much?

That’s supposed to be a jab at the post-shoot sculpting that photos of female models undergo before showing up in a magazine, right?

Seeing all the pics of beeber, I see how he is trying to be another James Dean.

And failing at it.

Which bit was retouched?

And here I thought I was being funny when I 'shopped his head on that old Liefeld Captain America pic with the horrible anatomy the other day…

Gonna need a unicorn chaser

Mind you, that article has an «apparently this “before” picture was fake» - retraction.

Apparently it goes like this:

  1. The published ad photo is (of course) heavily retouched, as they always are.
  2. The skinnier, bigger-headed ‘original’ is an easy-to-spot fake, grossly reverse-engineered from 1. above.
  3. The actual original picture, showing how many photoshop steroids were added and so forth, remains a secret.
  4. “Sensory Homunculus” got a laugh out of me. So there’s that.

That sounds about right. :smile:

This is so much better than anything I could have even imagined.

Perhaps, as a humanitarian act, I should crowd-fund a Spyder for Bieber.

I don’t see what the problem is? Seems legit.
