Thank you, Britney Spears, for being proud of your real body and showing it even when the company you’re modeling for won’t.
It looks like Candies decided to airbrush a completely different person.
The 30-year-old singer and mother decided it was a good idea to show her fans what her body really looks like: a dancer, performer and a woman that has gone through childbirth!
Smaller thighs, plastic and shiny legs and a trimmed waist are just a few of the things the clothing company decided just didn’t look right on the songstress. In the first picture, her legs look like they were digitally transplanted on! They’re thinner, her butt is higher and her legs are longer
The mother of two is truly in top form and I think it’s insulting for Candies to alter a truly real and still beautiful body.
Lovelies, would you rather have Candies use the unedited version or the Photoshopped version for their advertisement?

I’m glad there are still some celebrities out there who aren’t afraid to show their true bodies. Go Britney!

Way to go, Britney. She truly is beautiful and I do think Candies should use the unedited picture of her for their ad. They’re trying to make her something ideal and completely impossible.

I am confused. Isn’t this old?

Good on her. She looks fantastic either way. But yeah, didn’t Lovelyish post this when it first happened which was about two years ago, I believe?

To be fair, it absolutely does NOT look like they made her into a different person – but yes, I do think it’s fairly abominable that companies Photoshop beautiful, strong women into unrecognizable, unattainable forms.

So that’s why model knees never look as ugly as everyone else’s knees!

In all honesty, there is not that much photoshop going on here. They thinned out her thighs and waist a little, took the redness out of her skin, did a skin softening and probably another layer to decrease the shadowing around her knees, and then did a small, (not really too shifted) butt lift/leg lengthening in the first one and a clothing retouch on her crotch on the second one.
It’s pretty basic stuff, and it’s not like people would notice if it wasn’t right up next to the unedited version… which probably is not unedited completely.
I agree that photoshop should not be necessary in our society, but as far as retouching goes… this is VERY mild, and does not alter her in any extremes. The reason it looks bad next to each other is because the “unedited” is a closer crop in both, meaning she is closer to the edge of the frame so it widens/makes larger all her parts compared to the other photo when it is really just about the same.
I’m a photo major, so to me, I’ve seen so much worse than this. This is just normal post-production.

Spears looks amazing without the photoshop! She actually looks like a real person.
guest
wish they would use the unedited version.
guest
unedited, that muscle tone in her legs is feminine and sexy as hell
guest
There really isn’t that much of a diff….lol.
guest
Isn’t this from several years ago?

And this is why Photoshop is the greatest invention of Mankind. You see what age does to the female body? You see why men chase after the younger, tighter bitches? Britney should be ashamed of herself for letting the world see her unflattering, fugly aged body.
guest
dayum, she’s got knees like me
guest
Photoshopped is more attractive.
