Magazine covers make me mad

[acatalina]

Have you ever looked at a magazine and the girls have not a bump, mole , no cellulite and are loke a size 1.
Then do these exercises and look like this!!!!!!!!!!!
Please,
They are all airbrushed smooth.
They Pi-- me off beacuse they are not natural. Then, people tink all women should look like this.
Even the girls in Cathe's videos are not perfect. Bit they are real.
They aren't without loose skin and scars and cellulite.
They have had children.
Why do magazines think you have to be a size 1 and 20 to be beautiful???????
Just picked up my fitness and except for the 2 ladies that are real and lost weight with exercise they are all twiggy and anorexic.

I am part of the Shape reader panel so I've been able to vote on the newest ad covers. Most of the time I say that I don't like the cover due to the model. Sometimes its the articles. I've noticed that my opinions are starting to be reflected on the covers so I'm not the only one who feels the same!

Did anyone see the Oprah shop with the woman who had all the cosmetic surgery? I only caught the last 10 minutes, but makeup artist Bobbi Brown said the same thing you did Anne. She said magazine covers are works of art, not real photos. She kind of warned woman not to try to look like models or actresses.

I think the women on the covers are starting to look more and more bizarre. I particularly hate the stretching. Those photos just look downright alien.

they are all airbrushed. its pretty much the editors and the art directors who have the last say. i found this site and when you roll your mouse over the pic and wait a second it will show what the model looked like before the picture was airbrushed

VERY interesting, and it takes the pressure off a little, I think.
