Instagram Influencer SLAMMED For 'Fake' Travel Pics!

Johanna Olsson

Don’t believe everything you read, or see on Instagram!
A few months ago, London-based influencer Johanna Olsson — who has over 510,000 followers — shared pics on social media of her trip to Paris where she was reportedly paid to wear various clothing items.

The only problem? The October snaps are Photoshopped in an extremely obvious manner!
In one pic, the 28-year-old — who is from Sweden — appears to be floating in front of a bridge over the Seine River.

In another image at an outdoor bistro, Olsson appears to have a white outline around her head, as an umbrella appears to be missing from a nearby table.

Needless to say, her fans were none too pleased! They criticized:

“My cat does better Photoshop.”
“BAHAHAHA fake”


According to Australian pop culture website Mamamia, Johanna fessed up (and defended) her poor Photoshop skills, but says she did, in fact, travel to France.
She reportedly wrote on Insta Story:

“I wanted to talk a little bit about the pictures I posted in Paris. So I did one picture, shot it and didn’t think it looked that nice… so I took a different background and put the background into it… And when I put it up, nobody noticed, so I thought, this is good… I admit it wasn’t my finest Photoshop skills. Now in Sweden this thing has gone crazy and TV shows want me to come on and talk about my ‘fake travelling’… It’s a bit ridiculous I think. There are a lot of influencers out there that Photoshop in birds, rainbows or crazy skies and I could do that but I don’t like that… I just wanted to make that clear that I was in Paris, but I did Photoshop the background, but I’m not going to take them down because it’s a collaboration.'”

All that glitters is not gold!
