It's not right. But it's been happening since photo manipulation has been possible. I think it started with airbrushing. Even before that (and now) "soft" lenses and what not were/are used.

As it turns out... no one really wants to see "real" celebrities.
I just think about how I feel when someone "exposes" something like...say Jennifer Love Hewett's over weight, cellulite fanny on a Mag Cover. Plus... they do the opposite in those situations... touching "down"(I guess I like quotation marks) photos to make them look worse. Celecrities may have chosen to open themselves up to public scrutiny... but they are still people (some may actually BE people) with feelings. Heh... at least Katie Perry does "Poactive Commercials" for people with acne... even showing photos of her zits. ""Pretty" sells better than...uh... well let's say ...uh... Me!

I think part of the mystique of celebity is pretending that they aren't just like everyone else.... except in some... uh... "thing" like "Branjolina" where their entire careers are based on good genetics more than anythiing else (Just my opinion). I still don't like to believe that girls pass gas. Or that ANYBODY has ever picked their nostralinear projection.

Sad fact... but pretty people usually, not always... (though the prettiest or most handsome person in the crack house is probably the most popular) have an easier times of things exactly because they are pretty. 

P.S. nothing I say is endoursed by Renderosity. I just talk too much.
