10 Celebs who have openly called out the media for having photoshopped them unfairly in order to turn them into something they’re really not.

Though she was honored to be on the cover of Glamour Magazine’s December 2013 issue, Lady Gaga did not like what she saw. When the singer was honored at the Glamour Woman of the Year Awards, she let the magazine know exactly how she felt. She told the audience that she felt the photo was overly Photoshopped, and didn’t show her true self. She claimed photos like the one the magazine featured of her is the reason many people struggle with self-image issues. She then challenged the magazine and mainstream media to do better to help change the culture of over Photoshopping women on their covers.

How can people promote body positivity and natural beauty in a world saturated with edited images?

In today’s world, it is difficult to tell what is real and what is fake, thanks to the vast advancements in technology. One of the tools that has gained significant popularity over the years is Photoshop, a photo editing software that enables users to alter images to their preferred look. However, not everyone is a fan of the software.

There are celebrities who have come out strongly against the use of Photoshop, and some have gone as far as refusing to have their images edited in any way. Here are ten celebrities who famously hate Photoshop.
