The Advertising Industry/Beauty Industry









I am Worried about the little girls and women with low self esteem issues.

The perfect lie………….. The perfect face and the perfect body…… Who sets the standards on how we should look? I am a huge beyonce fan however I worry that her image she advertises is harmful to those that fall victim. Sex appeal Sells!!!! We all know this, yet are these celebs really going to portrait themselves in a false light to make sales, YES. Beyonce is a very attractive woman but yet all of her pictures must have some Photoshop. In the double picture above,the right is the original picture; is it really necessary to make her body look orange? Was her skin not the right color? Or was it that her skin tone SHOULD have been a little more TAN? (I can see the women rushing to the stores to buy tanning lotion to get this fake glow.)



Her hips and legs seemingly shrunk (I guess her hips/legs were too thick to actually model) her arms slimmed down, and her “love handle” doesn’t exist in this million dollar picture. Must all celebs aspire to have this hourglass figure? Why do these celebs have airbrushed abs? Why can’t we love our bodies as it is?

Sometimes, hourglass figure is the only thing people can really look at. We live in a culture where being skinny as a twig is the norm or the pefered way to go. Modeling agencies do this type of editing because it can be easily sold to the public. And Beyonce probably does like the way the way how her body looks its just that the public enjoys those type of photos. But sadly, the only way to make money in that industry is to adjust to what people want. Personally I feel that the editing they did to her body was un-necessary. It just seems like modeling standards will never change.
