Ok, she is like 3 shades lighter.... the lights on her can't be THAT STRONG

[alixkat.livejournal.com]

That's appalling.

Wow, now I REALLY can't see race! Thank you, Photoshop!

[claws-n-stripes.livejournal.com]

Oh God, I laughed so hard. You broke me out of my seething rage. Thank you.

[claws-n-stripes.livejournal.com]

Actually, screw stealing that-- you deserve the credit.

[mothwentbad.livejournal.com]

Steal/credit/whatever at will. I'm glad I could improve your day.

fuck vanity fair, seriously

and why in the fuck do people APPROVE this shit? no way in hell I'd let them fuck up my look like that.

Well, um, Vanity Fair clearly doesn't SEE race, so they didn't even KNOW they made her 15 shades lighter. Or something.
Stop talking about race! We're post-racial, so that makes YOU the racist. Or something.

*gag*

the computer person's photo editing as obvious, awkward and fake as the airbrushing of jhud's arm a while back. like, the shadows left are left close to her actual skintone while the rest is chalked up with a clashing bluish-white. wtf?

[doktor-x.livejournal.com]

God, not only did they make her white, but she looks like she’s made of plastic!

[oneshysistah.livejournal.com]

Oh.Hell.No!

[sean-coltrane.livejournal.com]

She doesn't even look HUMAN in that Vanity Fair pic :-(

[unusualmusic.livejournal.com]
