What’s weird about this one and most of those Photoshop jobs is that Olsen actually looks much, much worse in the photoshopped version. I thought the idea was to make people look more attractive? Olsen not only doesn’t look like herself, she looks gaunt and pinched, like she just tasted some really bad kimchi or something.
There was one magazine in the grocery store with Alicia Vikander on the cover. She’d been so photoshopped she was barely recognizable. Why would you do this to anyone, but particularly her? She’s already very beautiful with no makeup. You’re not improving her by making her look any different because part of what is appealing about people is their particularity and even their flaws, not some android version of themselves (very appropriate for Vikander).
Elizabeth Olsen herself is kind of unusual looking, and that’s part of what makes her interesting. That’s one of the reasons why she was picked to play the Scarlet Witch, after all. It doesn’t hurt that she’s actually a pretty good actress, too.
(Here’s another terrible photoshop job, this time with men.)
