Yesterday, our Steve did a post on actress Raven-Symone refreshingly insisting she’s an American, instead of hyphenated “African-American.”
Raven-Symone said that in an interview 2 days ago with Oprah Winfrey. Here’s the video:
I took a screenshot from the video, then cropped it to show just Oprah. I think you will agree with me that Oprah looks like Oprah in this pic (below), taken just two days ago.
Imagine my surprise when I saw the cover of the new (November) issue of O, The Oprah Magazine in a Daily Mail story:
Here’s a side-by-side comparison of Oprah-in-the-video (l) and Oprah-on-O‘s-cover (r):
You wouldn’t think the obese dumpy woman with dull skin and hair on the left is the same person as the full-figured-but-trim woman with glowing skin and hair on the right.
Such is the miracle of Photoshop!
But didn’t Oprah base her entire talk show on how women should have self-esteem and not let themselves be brainwashed and oppressed by society’s standards of beauty? What happens to women’s self-esteem when they compare themselves to (the totally unreal, photoshopped) Oprah in O magazine?
She’s quite the hypocrite, isn’t she?
