KEEPING UP WITH THE PHOTOSHOPS: Kim Kardashian trolled for 'painfully obvious' editing fail
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star Kim Kardashian is once again on the receiving end of social media trolling - this time for her recent post on Instagram where fans could detect a painfully obvious instance of photoshopping. The socialite is often known for editing and airbrushing her images, so it did not come as a surprise to people that she had done the same to her bikini pictures.
This time, however, the body part that fell victim to alteration and editing was her poor neck. In a series of photos endorsing her Beats Fit Pro collection, Kim is seen resting against the poolside deck with the Beats headphones in her ears. The part where her neck meets her shoulder, however, looks surprisingly rounded and shapely. One eagle-eyed fan took to TikTok to reveal that Kim had photoshopped her neck muscle out of the image.

In the series of pictures, the SSKN founder is sporting a brown bandeau bikini top and sunglasses. She is sipping an orange drink through a straw with her blonde hair pulled up in a messy bun. There are several closeups of the image, as well as a short video.
A TikToker who goes by the username of @caroline_in_thecity shared a clip, explaining how the image had been edited and botched. "When we zoom in, we can see the water pattern behind her has been warped," she mentions, adding that "Kim K is notorious for photoshopping out her traps."
Others commented on the TikTok, remarking how such behavior was actually harmful. One user writes, "This is actually so not okay. You would think that now that they have daughters they would think about the impact of this more." Someone else remarked, "The natural version looks so much better."
Caroline, who posted the video revealing Kim's dabble into editing, also explained how the pattern of the pool's water behind her neck looked warped. This was proof that the image had been edited. The commercial photographer then used the liquify tool in Photoshop to adjust the image and show what the original must have looked like. For further evidence, the TikToker showed how Kim's neck looked different in the video posted by the reality TV star.
One person hilariously quipped, "That looks like how I drew necks when I was in third grade."
Earlier too, the mother-of-four had been similarly caught editing her photographs. Already in trouble for wearing Marilyn Monroe's iconic 'Happy Birthday Mr President dress,' Kim decided to take it up a notch by posting edited pictures from the MET Gala. The unsuspecting body part that fell a victim this time? Her knees.
