Demi or not Demi? That is the question

I said it was Rubik, but it is so hard to tell. We need the reverse shot, so we can compare it to Ashton's tweet photo.

Of course it is retouched. They retouch EVERYONE on those things. How much is the matter of debate.

Happy Thanksgiving Lizards. I'm thankful I have an acceptable place to get my celebrity fix.

d*mn my IT security folks, can't see the comparative... ah well...

It could be that the magazine thinks flat-out replacing someone's body with another person's in a photo isn't the same as retouching the photo.

You know, kind of like how some people think having oral sex isn't really "having sex."

Originally I offered to perform an in-depth and up close examination of Demi Moore to find where her hip went to. I would like to amend that offer to include a similar study of Anja Rubik, in the name of comparative analysis of course.

The superimposition does show one thing--Anja Rubik is waaaaay skinny--by inches on Demi. And Demi's arms and legs look normal. Anja's look starved off.

Haven't we seen this story before? Seems awfully familiar. I recall the "controversy" about Oprah's head/Ann-Marget's body on the cover of TV Guide.

I think they both look like skeletons... so I'm going to say someone stuck Demi's head on a skeleton's body.

There's GOT to be a Rubik's Cube pun in here somewhere...

Of course it's retouched! Just follow either the line of her thigh upwards or the line of her hip downwards and the lines do not, in any way, shape, or form, match up. It's a wonder these celebrities are even recognized in public after having so much re-touching done in photographs. Are we as a nation, that superficial and insecure with ourselves that every photo has to be absolutely, beyond human perfect? What message is this sending to normal people?

I bet Ted Williams wouldn't mind someone putting his head on another body.

Here's what I don't get: when you look at the series of photos of Anja there's one where she looks like a famine victim, and then another one right next to it where her skin is warm and glowing and although she's still thin, she looks somehow more healthy. Then next shot, once again, sickly and frightening. Is this photoshop too? Lighting?

Also - I like how they call that a dress. More like a gladiator skating costume.

Roxie, You're right! I believe Angela Nikodinov wore such a costume a few years back, and may have skated to music from "Spartacus."

Forgot the "who cares?" option. But in the spirit of things, I'll play Devil's advocate and say it is 100% Demi. Just because I don't mind being fooled once in a while. Hey, I ordered the touch ups on my 14 year old's school pic. Am I a bad Mom because we'd like to remember him at that age with perfect skin? (Wish they had that when I was in school).

hodie, if you could see how air-brushed the graduates' portraits were in my high school yearbook, you'd have thought there was something in my hometown's water that was a universal cure for acne!

Nosy and hodie, hearing your stories of photo retouching has made me grateful for being from the great town of Lake Woebegon.

Dorkus, maybe the cure is also in the waters of Lake Woebegon?

I think acne was less of a blight on my high school population than massive hairsprayed bangs.

You know, kind of like how some people think having oral sex isn't really "having sex."

When my husband goes down on me, we're not really having "sex".

LOL Roxie, had the bangs too and braces. Dorkus, can you bottle some of the water for me? Will be cheaper than proactiv.

If Ted Williams head was on Demi Moore's body, would he/she be able to hit for the cycle?

The only good thing about high school acne was that I could get pizza all over my face and no one could tell.

Hodie, I imagine we're dating ourselves. Though I think 80s hair persisted longer in certain geographic areas of the US.

Demi hasn't been natural since "About Last Night".
