We know that the Photoshop diet is very popular with magazine publishers. Over at Green Chair Marketing Group, they have some photos with retouching in the opposite direction by adding pounds onto the celebs like JLo, Catharine Zeta Jones, Elizabeth Hurley, and Gwyneth Paltrow. Although, we've seen Gwyneth in her Shallow Hal fat suit in the movies, this is what she would look like on the red carpet.
I point this out not to make fun of fat people, but that photo retouching can have a profound affect on the illusions that the particular picture is trying to convey. Because of all this modern technology, you cannot believe every picture you see, especially when it relates to beauty. Models, actors, actresses are photo retouched ALL the time.
