Kylie Jenner is one of the most popular people on Instagram, which means her every selfie is scrutinized in a way that few of us could ever really imagine.
Fortunately for Kylizzle, most of the comments on her pics are just teens trying to get other teens to follow them back, so she doesn’t receive much in the way of criticism – even when she’s guilty of some obvious re-touching.
Yes, Kylie Photoshop controversies are nothing new, but for the most part, her followers don’t seem to mind.
After all, they’re far more interested in the ways in which Kylie enhances herself in real life.
(Kylie’s lips remain high on the list of Instagram’s biggest obsessions – along with pretty much every other part of her body.)
But sometimes, Kylie’s manipulation of her own form is so blatant that even the biggest Ky-Hards can’t ignore the deception.
Recently, some fans have noticed that Kylie appears to have taken steps to slim down her famous figure in some of her photos.
It’s an unusual approach for the model, who in the past, has been busted adding curves to her naturally slender frame.
Some fans have come to Kylie’s defense, claiming that the 19-year-old may have simply lost some weight in recent weeks.
Others, however, insist that Kylie has simply taken to altering her pics before posting, adding, they claim, a “thigh gap” by narrowing her legs.
Fortunately, it’s 2017, which means instead of debating these things to death, we can have an expert settle the matter for us!
Enter Photoshop specialist Alan Barry.
Barry analyzed some of Kylie’s photos recently and weighed in on whether or not she’s guilty of retouching.
“It is my professional opinion that areas of the image have been manipulated in Photoshop or some other image editing software,” he tells Radar Online.
“I have illustrated the image areas that I believe have been altered.”
“There are a number of places where it appears that straight lines have been created (legs, torso, left arm),” Barry adds.
“It appears that there is an attempt to reduce the volume of her face in the area of the cheeks. All detail of her chest, including her collar bones have been all but obliterated. The fingers of the right hand appear to have been altered as well.”
So there you have it.
Kylie occasionally makes relatively minor alterations to her selfies.
You’re stunned, we know.
