Um, photoshop much?

But of course, you'd NEVER call her out for that.

Photo shopping is all well and good for blemishes, etc. . . but it should NOT make someone look like a completely different person. You can barely tell that is her. She is pretty all on her own, this is not needed. Why do magazines continue to do this?

She's a gorgeous girl, but I find it funny how you call every other celebrity out for being "photo shopped" when they appear on the covers of magazines, but you won't make the same claims when your precious BFF Ms. Perry appears on the cover of a magazine clearly re-touched.

It doesn't even look like her!

Could that be any more photoshopped? Not only does it look plastic, it doesn't even look like her. Katy Perry is nowhere near that attractive.

Jesus Perez, you call this pretty and fresh-looking??? What about your fucking photoshop-awards… This looks like a cross between Megan Fox and Mandy Moore… I know you love Miss Katy, but come on…!!!!!!!!

Katy Perry sucks. I don't think she's ugly or anything, but the girl CAN'T SING WORTH CRAP.

Re: crimzoid – agreed. He'd get at everyone else for it apart from her or GaGa. Even though I do like GaGa and Katy it really gets to me when he does that. Such an ass.

finally a picture of the over rated katy perry where she's not making a stupid face, wearing ridiculous makeup or trying to open her eyes as wide as possible. here she actually looks pretty and not like a cartoon.
MeaMarie says – reply to this

35

I love Katy Perry, but why doesn't Perez comment on how much she has been airbrushed? He says it about everyone else so this just shows how bias he is

Ok, really? Flare looks A LOT like Elle. Isn't that a copyright issue? Also, Katy is way too airbrushed on that cover - she doesn't need it! She's beautiful!

you're such a hypocrite sometimes, Perez. If "pretty and fresh-looking" is code for photoshopped beyond recognition, then yes she is pretty and fresh-looking.
