Kylie Jenner: Slammed For Photoshopping Thigh Gap!
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.

Iskra Lawrence is Out to Destroy the Thigh Gap Myth
Does she have a thigh gap or does she not have a thigh gap?
To Iskra Lawrence, this is not the question.
On April 29, the model shared a pair of photos on Instagram, posing both times in the same outfit on the same day and sharing the images side-by-side.
What point was she trying to make?
We’ll let the 25-year old beauty explain:
“No thigh gap or thigh gap who cares.
http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2015/04/demi-lovato-to-thigh-gap-ph-kkk-yo/I’ll be the first one to tell you pics are all about good lightening and angles.
“Always remember social medias not real life never let anyone else’s pics make you feel insecure about yourself.”
Take a look below at the photos in question. She’s sending a pretty good message here, no?
Celebrities around the country have sadly gotten caught up in the whole thigh gap craze.
Kim Zolciak, for example, insists that hers is real.
Demi Lovato, meanwhile, once cursed her thigh gap off.
“You are meant to be YOU no one else, your body is your home so love and respect it. When you look after it beautiful things happens,” Lawrence added as a caption to the pictures above.
Last month, the face of the #AerieREAL campaign (which strives to promote body positivity) rose to viral stardom on when she shut down a troll by sharing a video of herself clad in lingerie … and eating a bag of potato chips.
“This is for anyone who has ever been called FAT. Thanks for the inspirational words,” she wrote at the time.
Due to her sizeable rear end, Lawrence has been compared to Kim Kardashian.
But could you ever imagine Kim Kardashian making these sort of positive body type of comments?
Sadly, neither can we.
“Eventually I learned you are more than your body,” the model told Elle in February.
“Your body’s your home, and you need to love it and respect it. You are meant to be in that body, so look after it, love it and don’t let it be the reason for not doing something.:

Victoria Beckham Missing Part Of Her Thigh, Seems Fine With It
I would like to spend a day with magazine photo editors.
I want to watch them photoshop a model"s body, and then point out that he or she is missing a shoulder blade, or that the right oblique is not symmetrical to the left.
Photoshop errors have reached a comical point in pop culture, so ridiculous-looking that some aren"t even replaced because of their popularity.
Victoria Beckham was recently featured in a spread for Vogue China, and readers couldn"t help but notice an odd space between the top of her leg and the torso to which is should be attached.
This was stranger than the thigh gap phenomenon, which measure"s a woman"s beauty based on the size of the gap between her thighs (touching = bad).
Beckham"s photo was simply laughable, because it was so painfully obvious that someone was working on "improving" the designer"s already thin leg, but got distracted by Kenny The Office Manager"s coffee cakes.
The result: A strange, straight line where the top of her thigh should be. I blame Kenny"s coffee cakes.
One fan tried to explain that the tail of Beckham"s button-down was actually covering the thigh.
"Stunning!!" said fan wrote on Twitter. "Someone said the thigh of her back leg is missing but it"s just her shirt."
Eh, I see the background.
Check out the photo for yourself to determine whether or not this was the result of fabric placement, or if it was all Kenny"s fault.

New Jewelry Highlights Thigh Gap Obsession, And It"s Weird
What an odd way to make an statement.
Designer Soo Kyung Bae created jewelry for a woman’s thigh gap area for Singapore company TGAP. Why? I have no idea.
The thigh gap trend has become worryingly popular, creating unrealistic expectations of what a woman’s body looks like. Some thigh gaps are natural, while others are a result of extreme diet and exercise.
The pieces, make of 18-karat plated gold, range from $ 175-$ 195.
“TGap Jewellery is a fictional company that sells jewelleries designed for thigh gaps,” a statement on the site reads.
“It is launched to catalyze a debate on unrealistic body image social media portrays.”
Huh?
It appears that the site doesn’t actually sell thigh gap jewelry. Instead, t’s supposed to raise awareness about body image.
“The jewellery pieces take the thigh-gap trend to another level, the pieces are created in hopes of sparking questions,” Bae told Dazeen Magazine
“‘If we let the media keep popularising such unrealistic body ideal, will this eventually become reality? By using outrageous products, I hope to bring a provocative jolt that leads us to ponder and reflect upon what we are like as a society and the absurd things we value and obsess over – as well as how this creates unnecessary pressure for women and girls.”
I dig it.

Kim Zolciak: Look At My Natural Thigh Gap!!!
Kim Zolciak doesn’t miss a beat.
Last night, the Don’t Be Tardy star Instagram’d a photo of her date night outfit, while husband Kroy Bierman got ready in the background.
“Date night but only have an hour!” she wrote.”Gotta make time even if it’s quick.”
We didn’t ask, but Zolciak mentioned her thigh gap anyway.
“I don’t need to stick my butt out or point my feet in to have a thigh gap I have one even if I stand on my head.
“#BornWithIt #ILoveYouJuicy #IDontPostForYourOpinion #ItsMYIGSoIPostPicsOfMe #ThatsNothingNew.”
Back in August, Zolciak wrote something similar about her thigh gap, which has been a controversial topic over the past two years. Some define it as a measure of beauty, which doesn’t do much for the whole “love your body” message.
Zolciak was at Emory University at the time, and wanted to show off her Jimmy Choos to fans.
“Listen I turn my feet in so you can see my damn shoe not to have a thigh gap cause I have that anyway!” she wrote.
We get it. You have a thigh gap.
Zolciak also showed off a makeup-free selfie yesterday, the result of a lovely facial THAT SHE PAID FOR.
“Thank you Magnolia Spa for my amazing Hydra facial today!
“No they didn’t ask me to post, no I didn’t get paid to say this! It’s the only spa me and my entire family go to here in GA! They are the best!”
