Lady Gaga, Brad Pitt and other celebrities who are not afraid to show themselves to fans without retouching.
It's nice to know that the fashion for naturalness is gaining popularity in the world. Hollywood stars and Russian media personalities are increasingly abandoning retouching and inspired stereotypes of appearance. Some of them are literally fighting for naturalness and trying to change the world of gloss. We tell you which popular artists and bloggers are not shy about shortcomings and can safely refuse digital processing of personal photos.
Lady Gaga
In 2013, at the Glamor Woman of the Year award ceremony, the singer criticized the gloss's policy of retouching the appearance on the magazine's covers. Editing made her appearance in the pictures unnatural, and the artist did not like it. Of course, Gaga accepted the statuette, but she expressed not words of gratitude from the stage, but remarks.
We can say that the singer reproached the magazine with hypocrisy. Because on its pages they write about the changes that are taking place in modern show business and society in relation to appearance, but at the same time they do not want to put a natural cover.
The artist also does not use Photoshop on her Instagram, but she is rarely shown without makeup. But in 2018, on the cover of Vogue magazine, Gaga appeared before readers in a feminine and natural way, which was unusual for her. After all, she is used to stunning the audience with makeup.
Beyonce
The H&M advertising campaign also got from the star for retouching. Beyoncé was outraged that she was made too thin and asked to return her curves. The company had to present the singer to the world as she is.
Beyoncé is definitely not shy about natural forms, she is even proud of them. Fans also love the singer without embellishment. True, several times she was still caught in Photoshop. Subscribers noticed that in vacation photos with her husband and rap artist Jay-Z, the singer made herself slimmer legs. The pictures were later deleted.
Another scandal came when Beyoncé's portraits were leaked online. Skin imperfections were visible on them. This led users to believe that most of the other photographs of the singer, in fact, are being systematically retouched. However, she denies the use of digital face and body processing. Beyoncé says she just knows the rules of posing and uses good light to create her photos. We hope she is not dissembling.
At least in 2016 vacation photos, the artist's image is pleasing to the eye. She is dressed in a feminine dress and poses without makeup. Such a Beyoncé is rarely seen.
Cate blanchett
Keith is an actress and winner of two Academy Awards. In 2018, she appeared on the cover of intelligent life magazine without retouching. Everyone was surprised how Blanchett was able to convince the editors of the gloss to abandon the principles and show the world a real person, and not a doll with an unnatural skin color.
The actress does not retouch personal photos either. And in pictures from social events, every facial wrinkle remains in place.
Brad Pitt
The actor has repeatedly approached Chuck Close to shoot him for magazine covers. Collaborations between the photographer and the actor have appeared in W Magazine and Vanity Fair. Chuck is known for his unique author's style based on the principles of hyperrealism. The raw images of the professional show the smallest flaws in the skin.
Pitt wanted to appear in front of the fans as he is. The photo showed circles under the eyes, "crow's feet" and wrinkles, but the actor did not look worse from this. The author of the picture explained the unusual act of the star.
Manizha
The Russian and Tajik singer, as well as the Dove brand ambassador, has been working on the Beauty Trauma project for several years. It is dedicated to the problem of the ideals of appearance on the web. The artist believes that each person should accept himself, and most importantly - love his shortcomings.
Together with Dove, the singer launched another project - #ShowNas. Its members advocate female beauty without digital processing.
Tatiana Mingalimova
Tatiana is known for her YouTube channel "Gentle Editor" and the project "Girlfriends". The blogger also does not try to change the appearance with the help of retouching.
In one of the interviews, the girl admitted that maybe her skin is imperfect, but there is cosmetics for broadcasts. Mingalimova sincerely does not understand why to change facial features and natural forms, resorting to digital processing.
Despite the fact that in her "instagram" Tatiana exhibits photos without retouching, more than 200 thousand fans continue to follow the blogger. And in the spring of 2019, Mingalimova launched a flash mob, in which social network users posted personal pictures without processing with the hashtag #NezhnyeIzyany. Even Russian celebrities supported the idea.
