It’s no surprise that not everything you see on social media is real. But most of the time, it at least LOOKS real. Fans are going crazy over the badly photoshopped swimsuit photo that Khloe Kardashian recently posted on her Instagram page.
In the post, Khloé s promoting a bikini from Good American’s new swimwear line. She totally rocks the bathing suit, as she lays sprawled out in her lovely pool. But when you look closely at the photo, you might notice a few tweaks that don’t seem quite realistic. For example, there are a few warped leading lines, which typically means a photo has been messed with.
Take a look for yourself below:
“Who’s going tell her the wall is shifted,” someone wrote as a comment.
“Am I the only one that thinks her stomach looks weird? Just asking,” another said.
“Either the proportions are out of whack or I’m drunk,” someone seemingly half joked.
We might believe this was a non-edited photo if it weren’t for the fact that this isn’t the first time Khloe has been called out for badly altering a photo. In fact, for the same Good American campaign, a photo was posted of her hands and feet looking unrealistically elongated.
See what we mean?
There were so many comments about a potential edit job that she replied back with her claim for why the photo looked so warped.
“I’m cracking up!,” she wrote. “For a few of those [Good American] photos, we shot on a camera lens that creates a stretching effect. The closer the object is to camera they will get elongated. So in some of my photos my feet and fingers look incredibly long. Not to worry! I still have normal size hands/fingers.”
We’re not so sure, but it’s a valid excuse!
If you want to look past Khloe’s potentially bad Photoshop jobs, you can purchase the bikini she’s wearing in the first fail (which we can all agree still looks great on her, Photoshop or not). The bottom and top are sold separately; find the top of the bikini here and the bottoms are here.
The swimsuit is available in three colors: classic black, a brown “latte,” and, the one Khloe is rocking: a metallic “silver snake” color. It’s sexy yet flattering—the description even states that it’ offers “just the right amount of skin showing.”
What do you think—is Khloe messing with her photos or is it just the camera lens? Do you always believe everything you see on social media?
