As some of you might know (even if you don't, I'm just going to tell you anyway!)Emma Watson, that chick from Harry Potter, is now doing ads for Burberry along side her brother Alex. I'm glad she found a job! But that's besides the point.
There a specific photo that has come under scrutiny. Here's the link to the article I'm talking about:
Emma Watson
This article brings up Emma's "Missing Leg" and if it has been photoshoped out of the picture.
I'm not ok with this stupidity. Although the article did bring up the possibility that this "missing leg" might be caused by an awkward pose, it rushes to judgement saying there's a greater possibility that it has been photoshopped out.
#1: WHO CARES. Some of us really don't and seeing this in my email's news feed is aggravating.
#2: HONESTLY. Let's not think the worst of things people! Look at her. She's tiny! And look at the size of the leg that's showing. IT'S TINY TOO! Woah, I bet that blew your mind right there... If shes posing with her leg bent behind her brother, it's not long enough to show past his pant leg, which is quite wide.
And secondly, why would someone do a crap job taking the rest of the leg out, making it look awkward, when they could just photoshop that leg to make it look presentable?
I'm not saying there's no photoshopping going on here. It happens in a lot of ads and magazine covers. And I'm not bashing photoshopping either, considering that's what I want to do with my life. I am simply saying that people need to think and rationalize what they are seeing before they open their big mouths and sound stupid.
That is all.
Thank you for reading my rant!
