Honestly, I believe Dove on this one. And even if there was a bit of touching up here and there, it's advertising - I grant them that much room. The photos are still very true to what the campaign is trying to promote...
Quoted: After a New Yorker profile implied that "king of the photo touchup" Pascal Dangin had airbrushed photos taken by Annie Leibovitz for Dove's high-profile " Campaign for Real Beauty," the company issued a statement last Friday explaining that Dangin had only removed dust and performed minor color corrections.

You must be shiwani's friend before you can comment on this Fave.Bad ass! I had our columnist write an article about alllll the women who have ruled nations -- EXCEPT FOR THE USA -- there are WAY more than you think.

That's awesome! I had an argument with someone about this on a Slate message board once. They were saying that S. Asia has only had female leaders (Bhutto & Gandhi) because of dynastic political tendencies. But we're fairly dynastic in the U.S. (hello, Kennedy & Bush families) so that's no excuse.
Damn straight! Has anyone ever diminished a king for coming to power via his family? NO. A ruler is still a ruler.
you ladies rock! also, i totally agree with both.
