  • Chrissy Teigen Says Photoshopped Models Are Unfair

    Chrissy Teigen seems to think that models who Photoshop their pictures on social media are not being honest.

    “I’ve seen these women in person,” she told Meredith Vieira recently. “They are not like that. Please know that. I have shot in barely anything with them, and it’s just amazing what people do to tweak themselves.”

    Chrissy Teigen is taking a different approach. She wants to see things handled more fairly.

    “The standard is so ridiculous. I mean, people are nip-tucking. It’s gotten to the point where they’re not just smoothing their skin. They are actually changing the shape of their body. Nobody can compare to that when you’re fixing yourself so much. It’s so unfair. It started with Botox and everything, of course. But now it’s just grown into this Photoshop phenomenon.”

    And to show she lives what she preaches, Chrissy Teigen recently posted a picture of her legs, complete with bruises and stretch marks.
    And it was not an oversight. She meant to do it. In fact, she captioned the picture:

    “Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi!”

    Chrissy Teigen told Meredith Vieira how the pic happened and why she did it.

    “I’m working on a cookbook, so I was bumping around the kitchen all the time and every door handle would just nick me every single time, and I was actually just taking a picture of the bruises and then I saw the stretch marks in there. I have those apps, those Facetunes, those Photoshopping ones, and I just didn’t feel like doing it anymore — and I’m never doing it again, because I think we forgot what normal people look like now.”

    Chrissy Teigen took a simple little picture and stuck it up on her Instagram page. Now her selfie, which did not even feature her face, is igniting a firestorm of positive reaction and applause that went further than she ever imagined.

    The picture was of her legs. She was showing some bruises she had, but the pic also showed stretch marks. This is way unusual in the fashion world. And it was not an oversight. She meant to do it. In fact, she captioned the picture:

    Chrissy Teigen sees this as an unfair development in the world of fashion.

    “The standard is so ridiculous. I mean, people are nip-tucking. It’s gotten to the point where they’re not just smoothing their skin.

    While Chrissy Teigen didn’t name names in her interview, she did point out the ridiculousness from an insider’s perspective.

    “I’ve seen these women in person. They are not like that. Please know that. I have shot in barely anything with them, and it’s just amazing what people do to tweak themselves.”

  • Why Does Alyssa Milano Love Her Stretch Marks So Much?

    Alyssa Milano is one hot mama who loves the changes motherhood has brought.

    The Charmed actress recently did a guest hosting gig for The Talk and joined the ladies there for a rousing discussion on stretch marks.

    Milano admitted that she’s not ashamed of her stretch marks, revealing that “I have them on my boobs, my (bum) and on my belly.” The admission drew cheers from the audience.

    The mother of two is the latest celebrity mom proudly owning up to her post-baby physique. “Some people might see them as imperfections, but when you have a baby, those are your beauty marks,” Milano said.

    The actress and her husband, David Bugliari, welcomed their second child, Elizabella Dylan, last September. They’re already parents to a 3 year old son, Milo Thomas.

    The discussion on stretch marks was prompted after a woman proudly posted a photo of herself showing her post-baby body in a cute bikini and it quickly went viral.

    Milano was really stoked about the viral photo, saying that “I really feel like it was a good time for this woman to stand up. It was positive.”

    The actress also recently had a selfie that went viral. The photo shows Milano breastfeeding her daughter, with a quote from writer Milan Kundera. As expected, the breastfeeding selfie garnered both positive and negative reviews from the online community and prompted her to ask why her selfie is more controversial than Kim K’s butt baring photo.

    While the actress’ experience in the limelight has gotten her used to the intrusions in her privacy, she does admit that doesn’t wear a bikini on the beach because the paparazzi would “rip apart every part of my body.”

    But motherhood is an experience that Milano obviously embraces. After giving birth to her first child n 2013, Alyssa Milano told People magazine that “our bodies are made to nurture and cuddle and all those amazing things that come along with being a mom.”
