1.NO 2. yes, because a lot of stars are nice, but they shouldn't be photoshoped. 3.i LOVE to wear make up.not because i feel like i need it but it's fun (mine is almost as crazy as Lady Gaga's.). my favorite look is rainbow eyeshadow. 4.i feel ugly, or fine, depending on who it is. 5. i feel my most beautiful after i talk to my friends about why i feel sad and just tell them everything. it gives you a sense of freedom because nothing is holding you down as much. 6. don't fall for it! go look in the mirror when your feeling down and tell yourself things like "i am beautiful" or "there's nothing wrong with me."

1. Yes. I think their self esteem would go low if they saw bad pic of themselves. 2. Depends on the celebrity. Sometimes their agents make them. 3. I wear lipgloss, curl my eyelashes, and wear some concealer when i need it. 4. i dont really think of it... most celebs arent too skinny unless they have an eating disorder, which is sad. 5. i always feel fine... 6. remember - they are airbrushed, and even if they arent, they have tons of makeup people. even if they dont, i mean theyre just one person, and your always going to be uglier and prettier than someone else
by oceanlover69 on 4/13/2011 10:33:07 PM
1. Yes. 2. Yes and no. Nothing a celebrity does is always right. No one always does the right thing. I think that its better to have real people role models, like people you know. 3. I dont have time 4. I dont really think about that. 5. Wear clothes that you like or make you look good. Exercise. 6. A lot of those stars are anorexic, do drugs, and alcoholics. They are very fake. Its like comparing yourself to a barbie.

I'm glad GL brought up this topic. I'm one of those girls that sees a picture of a model or celeb in a magazine and feels bad about myself. I try not to, but it's really hard! I think that society should celebrate natural beauty, and embrace their flaws.
by Pearl-Forest on 7/6/2010 3:42:30 PM
1. i dont think so its not right for them to hide their flaws..everybody has them like they say if you got it flaunt it 2. depends like taylor swift, jasmine villegas, selena gomez are good ones but brittany spears, lindsay lohan etc. arent 3. not really unless im going on a date 4. i dont like to compare my body so i dont think anything of it 5. smile....go natural my bf said he likes it better when i dont wear makeup...be happy with who you are 6. DONT COMPARE YOURSELF TO SOMEONE ELSE ecspecially people that you dont even know what they look like in real life
by rayrey on 7/6/2010 3:02:32 PM
I am so glad that GL brought up this topic. It is seriously something that needs to be pointed out to society. So many girls feel fat or ugly because of these types of things...What some people don't realize is that most of it is photoshop and editing. I didn't realize it for a really long time until one day I stumbled across a video on Youtube by Dove (yes, the skin care company). The video is called Dove Evolution by the user name tpiper. But if you search "Dove Evolution" the video should pop up. It truly showed me that everything is edited and done by professional makeup artists and hair stylists. And everything is done this way because of the model's "imperfections." So it just goes to show that there is no such thing as perfection in someone. Just because they are skinny, perfectly tan, no acne, etc...that doesn't mean they are beautiful. Everyone is beautiful.
by tennisroxursox on 7/2/2010 5:17:46 PM
I dont think that it should be okay for magazins and such to air brush and photoshop celebrities...there is really nno point other than to make young girls feel self consious...no one is perfect like that so why even try to make it look like that.... How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? I feel as if I want to see what that person looks like in person. Sometime i do feel self consious about myself....but i get over it.
by tdyumyum on 6/27/2010 2:40:04 PM
Q;Is it ok to photoshop for magazines and posters? A;Why not? As long as watch how you think about them,I think their pretty harmless as long as its known that alot of hassle and work was used and that its ok that others and yourself don't look like models. A;Some people do look up beacause the pictures can be inspiring or nice to look at, as long as the message in the photo doesn't advertise "bad things"(example, Drugs) using stars models to make them look like " good things". Q;wear make up? A: nope I don't.
by sunofelder on 6/23/2010 7:13:35 PM
Is it O.K for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? -No, natural beauty is what young teens should be looking up to these days, not some photoshop process of a body. Are these good role models for us to have? -No, not really. If they feel the urge to doll themselves up with a computer program than do the "normal thing", it's not very good for society. Do you like to wear makeup? -I do a lot, but only if it matches my skin tone and looks calm (and feels calm too) on me. When I was littler, I used to put a BRIGHT blue eyes shadow on and ruby red lipstick. I look back at those days with disgust. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? -I feel like my body isn't good enough. I look at them and want to get a tan, have a perfect face and eyes and lips and hair. I feel...bad...about my body. God only knows how many plastic surgeries these "role-models" have had. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? -Put on your favorite lip-gloss, a little eyeshadow that compliments your skin tone. Don't forget to smile, eat healthy, drink plenty of H2O, exercise, and sleep well. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? -I can only say that you are perfect in the eyes of the Lord. If you really want to change, do something all natural like: exercising, eating healthy, drinking plenty of fluids, get 7-8 hours of sleep, and relieve stress by writing your feelings in a journal or talking it out with bud you trust.

Is it okay for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities?- sure i mean if you could do that to your picture you would right?? Are these the good Roles models for us to have?- yea it's their actions that matter. Like if someone looked like a godess and was a totally meanie then no they wouldn't be a good role model; it only matters what they do with their lives. Do you wear makeup?- yea sure just no so much that i would look like a doll or a racoon How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star?- Well it doesn't make me feel bad because their lives are already bad enough i mean they HAVE to be perfect all the time, otherwise the press with get every little dirty secrect they have even it it's not real...my life isn't like that at all. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup?- be yourself and don't care what other people think if you feel good than who cares right? Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see picture of stars?- Just remember that no one, not even stars look like that.

I think I wrote too much.. lol! Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No, I don't think so! they are putting out a role model, a flawless girl and everyone wants to be them, but in reality they never can! I think that wrinkles, untoned skin, pale faces and stubbly legs are all natural and no one can be perfect every inch of their body. People should realize that THAT is what women (and men) are! Because all of us are being pushed to be more and more perfect! Plastic surgery, lazers, plucking, injections, waxing, ironing... and it goes on and on! I am fed up with it when I get on the topic because I just can't get that perfect skin or smooth legs! And the huge billboards of perfect women only shun me and make me feel out of place. Are these good role models for us to have? No! Like I was saying before, they only set a goal that isn't capable unless you aren't the natural, beautiful YOU. YOU, YOURSELF are perfect because no one else is like you!! Celebrities in magazines and TV ads are all clones.. Big knockers, no acne, and unbelievable smooth legs and no skin rolls. Its alien and unnatural and sad too because the whole 'celebrities' deal has forgotten TRUE beauty and they don't resemble themselves... Do you like to wear makeup? No. I would never wear foundation or cover my whole face, not even blush. For me, whenever I can wear makeup, Its mascara, eyeliner and chapstick. I just hate the feeling of everything covering up and clogging your face, I feel suffocated. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Pretty bad.. But I feel worse for them because I know they are fakes. I can't compare myself to a pixeled version of Oprah! What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Be yourself..! There's nothing to it. If you are healthy and work out, wash up and take care of yourself you know you are pretty. I know I posted "oh help me im uglyyy" stuff but now I really don't care, (Not PMS, I just know now!) Cause those women on the Venus commercial aren't real. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? I personally don't even go down that alley! I'm not involved in celebrity gossip or drama, though I feel kinds depressed when I see it in my magazines. But I laugh when I picture them falling because their plastic surgery if too heavy for them!

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? no Are these good role models for us to have? no Do you like to wear makeup? not heavy little blush maybe mascara if i feel like it How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? it makes me fell bad about my body and that i need to be skinny to be accepted What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? wearing something that makes you feel good about yourself Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? remember that it isn't what they actually look like and they arent perfect everyone has flaws including them
by tayswiftfan13 on 6/6/2010 2:16:51 PM
I think it's okay for celebrities to be 'edited' in magazines and things, but I think the amount of changes and effort for the pictures to look really perfect are unrealistic. I think that when we look for role models we should look for people who are true to themselves and have a good personality-airbrushed or not. I like to wear makeup because it is fun to play with. Honestly, it also makes me feel more grown up, like I can handle myself. It makes me feel not very pretty. I'm overweight and it's really tempting to compare myself with everybody else. I think a way you can feel better about yourself is to be happy with what you're doing. If there's something you aren't happy with than I think helping to fix or work through that helps you to feel prettier. I would suggest that they remember how much extreme, crazy effort goes into a single perfect photograph. There are celebrities who literally spend days only drinking special mixes, and then taking an enormous amount of time to do hair and makeup. Everybody's beautiful in their own way.
by hyperpuppy on 6/4/2010 1:40:11 AM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? NO! It is absolutely not ok. You shouldn't use PS to cover acne, make you look skinnier, NOTHING! Photoshop and all those programs are great to use, but I think it seems like when celeb's get their body edited, it makes them seem embarrassed to be their true selves. Are these good role models for us to have? Personally, a lot of people think they are good role models because some people think its not edited, and thats how they really look, or its just SLIGHTLY edited. It makes people think that they need to look fake to be pretty. Do you like to wear makeup? Yeah, personally I do. But I don't wear anything near stars. A little concealer if I'm feeling tired and gruggy in the morning, and light eyeshadow. For special occasions maybe a teeny dot of liquid eyeliner, then smudge it to look natural. A little mascara. And the eyeliner would be brown, and barley any. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Personally, I know that its edited. Nobody is that perfect looking. When I see them, I become a little more concerned about my weight, but then I realize, that I should be who I am, and just be healthy. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Without tons of makeup, like foundations, cover-ups, thick eyeliners, dark eye-shadows ect. is by realizing that you are beautiful. Everyone has true beauty. Sure, makeup can brighten you up on a glum day, or make certain facial features stand out, sure thats OK, but you don''t need alot of makeup to be pretty. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Girlies, don;t feel intimidated. Nobody is that perfect. They all have personal trainers and makeup artists and all the pictures are edited. About 98% of stars won;t let a picture pass through their view into a magazine without being edited. Remember girls, "We live in a world where seeing is not believing, we're only If you know what truly happened."
by jillkrikorian on 6/1/2010 9:18:34 PM
1. no 2. it depends just because a photo has been edited doesn't mean they are a bad person 3. i don't really i do once in a blue moon 4. i know i can feel confident without having to have a photo edited i know its the real me 5. i love to dance and reading is like an escape i get to me free for hours haha that may sound lame but... you are all beautiful even if you don't see it know you will some day (not really advice oh well)

How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? It makes me feel fat, and ugly
by modmodmod on 5/19/2010 4:57:31 PM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No it isn't. Actually I think airbrushing makes people look uglier. Are these good role models for us to have? Depends on who that celebrity is some are good role models others aren't Do you like to wear makeup? I don't need to wear it. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Slightly uncomfortable, but at the same time happy with my awesome body. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Playing my piano, drawing, writing, and exercising Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Everyone of those stars probably does not like the airbrushed version of themselves.

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? NO!!!!!!!! A lot of girls out there make thmselves puke and diet and stuff because they see unreal pictures of celebs and want to be like them. and i know no girl wants to be unreal. Are these good role models for us to have? not necessarily. sometimes camera people just do that without any permission. some people are good role model such as that girl in Precious but other, don't look at them. Do you like to wear makeup? How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? I imagine how fake and eternaly ugly i would be looking like that because all of us are preety is is just the way you look at your self. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? You write a list. things you like about yourself. then see what you like about other people and compliment them. It makes their day. No one likes anything better than getting a compliment. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Just think almost all pictures of celebs are edited so just think of it as a scam.
by mileycrazy99 on 5/16/2010 12:35:30 AM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? i believe that the only part that should be airbrushed is their skin and only if it's because they have a break out or something. they should never photoshop girls to be thinner, or tanner or anything like that. Are these good role models for us to have? they're not bad role models just because they get airbrushed/airbrush others. it's part of their job. but girls need to realize that to be successful they don't have to look 'perfect' in today's standards Do you like to wear makeup? yes, i'm 15, i wear powder, mascara and eyeliner and i apply it well so i don't look trampy. i no longer use makeup to hide my imperfections but to flaunt what i do like, and i think it's a great way to go. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? usually i feel inadequate at first but then i realize that i'm fine the way i am and if they edited me as much as they edited the model then i'd look just as "perfect" so in other words, the actual celebs are just like us. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? obviously. i think tons of makeup shows insecurity, also, guys don't like that, wear natural looking makeup, like brown mascara instead of black, and easy on the eyeliner. no glitter, no sparkles, that's trampy. you can feel good about yourself by buying clothes you love and look good on the type of body you have. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? you don't need to compare yourself to anyone else. everyone is different and has different qualities about them that make them attractive. find yours. i've struggled with self acceptance until i thought of all this stuff. i've been told many times that i have pretty eyes. maybe you have awesome hair, or sense of style. girls need to quit competing with each other to be the best, because we are all equal. and remember that inner beauty is always better than outer. i mean, do u feel like you'll never be popular because you're not 'pretty' enough? well what's popularity gonna help anyone once ur out of school and in the real world? at that point it's ur rockin personality that gets you far.

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No. It's teaching girls to look like Barbie. Are these good role models for us to have? It's not that THEY did anything! Yes! Do you like to wear makeup? YEP! How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? I want to see their NATURAL body! What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Drinking lots of water, good sleep. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Every girl is unique, so there is no such thing as "fat" or "ugly"
by MusicGirl399 on 5/4/2010 5:44:51 PM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? Yes, its their job to make them look ncie but they also need to keep realistic impressions in mind.

by animallover234 on 4/30/2010 8:30:48 PM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? Are these good role models for us to have? Do you like to wear makeup? Yes, I wear make up. Just mascara and eyeshadow. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? It makes me feel fat, and ugly. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Maybe write down something that you like about yourself, or you body. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Yes, and I am one of them. My suggestion is to just stop looking at those photos, and looks really dont matter. Sometimes looks cover up a persons personality, so make your personality shine through you looks, and people will see you for who you truely are, and not just your gorgeous face ;)
by Music4life123 on 4/28/2010 9:54:20 PM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No, because they can give you false information on a product. Plus, they make you feel ugly, no matter how pretty you are. Are these good role models for us to have? Photoshopped models? Um heck no!!!!! But celebrities who donate money and do community service on their own time? Yes! Do you like to wear makeup? Yes, but not too much. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Ugh it depends on the mood im in. If im in a bad mood, it typically makes me feel terrible. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Exercising and eating right! Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Just tell yourself that the photos have been messed with by computers and that their makeup is done by a professional and that most people in the world look nothing like that.

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? Are these good role models for us to have?

by tatertot71798 on 4/24/2010 10:03:42 PM
oh I hate it! makes me feel so ugly. Some celebs are just naturally pretty however like Taylor Swift. No, I don't wear make-up just lip gloss.

People like Taylor Swift, yes, but if the star does these crazy, nasty diets, no Do you like to wear makeup? Mascara and this matching skin tone stuff, but I hardly wear the skin stuff How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Um Hello! I am a reasonable size in clothes! Not some 40 year old star who wears size 7/8 for kids!

Just wear clothes and light shades of make up that look good on you. It works! Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Yeah! just be yourself! BTW girls! You are all beautiful, so don't forget that! In fact, I am jealous of some of you girls out there 'cause some girls look good in everything!

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No.. why have girls look up to people who can't even look up to themselves? Are these good role models for us to have? No way, we can never achieve looking like that if you makes their legs stick thin. Do you like to wear makeup? Yes.. makes me feel better. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? It makes me feel self consciencous.. like I should look like that. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? You can have a healthy lifestyle and remind yourself everyone is beautiful and GOD always loves you. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? No, unfortunately.
by ILoveBuck on 4/16/2010 8:16:03 PM
Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? -NEVER Are these good role models for us to have? -Sure, but it depends on who it is. Do you like to wear makeup? -Yeah, I guess How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? -I feel beautiful because I know that that persons picture is fake and that they really don't look like that in person. And that all the pictures of me of the REAL me looking BEAUTIFUL. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? -Who even needs more than two ounces of makeup? Thats my question...but always make sure you look at yourself in the mirror and say to yourself "I am beautiful, no matter what anybody else says or thinks". Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? STOP PAYING ATTENTION TO THE STARS!! Think to yourself "Most pictures are edited...this probably isnt real...I'm beautiful and nothing can change that."

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? - It's kinda lame but I guess it's not that bad. Are these good role models for us to have? -No, some girls will look at them and try so hard to look at them and will feel ugly compared to them. Do you like to wear makeup? -Yeah, but not too much. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? -I actually sometimes look in the mirror and feel ugly. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? -Just be happy with what you have and thereis no such thing as an ugly girl. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? -Look, we all have bad days when we want to put a paper bag over our heads but celebs do too. They are just like us. In those pictures, the girls are wearing tons of make up and the photos are all editted. We can all look beautiful without that!

1. Is it okay for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? well it's not only celebs but a little is okay. airbrushing out a zit is okay but it can get a little over the top 2. Are these good role models for us? if they're good people who do good things then sure... they didn't chose to be airbrushed 3. Do you like wearing makeup? no 4. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? i know i look great... who cares? 5. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? just think about this- would you rather have people say "wow look at how much make up that girl is wearing!!" or "wow look at how pretty that girl's eye's are?" 6. Do you have suggestions for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? they don't look real, you do and that is beautiful in itself.

1.) No, not at all. 2.) It depends, the celebrity cant control whether shes airbrushed or not. If its a celebrity that I like for other things besides their beauty, then sure. 3.) Yeah 4.) I dont think too much of it, sometimes I wonder how much work it took to make her look like that 5.) Be the girl with the confidence. The gorgeous girls dont have to be the best, a girl who can laugh at herself and can stand up for herself is the best kind of girl I think. 6.) Just remember that in magazines, those girls had a team of hair and makeup artists working on them for hours, and then even after that, every feature is technologically perfected. Think about the fact that your beauty is real and natural, not airbrushed and made up. Thats not a realistic standard to set, so just keep in mind that you are beautiful inside and out, without the help of a computer

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No. Are these good role models for us to have? We should admire celebrities for what they do, not what they look like. Do you like to wear makeup? yea How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? I wish I could look like them. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? not overexposing yourself to media. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? don't overexpose yourself to the media!

Is it okay for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebs? no. i mean, it's like unless you see a celeb without makeup on, how do you know what they really look like? Are these good role models for us to have? Not if it's based on their fake beuty. if it's based on their characteristics then some celebs, like taylor swift and selena gomez, are good others, like paris hilton and britaney spears arent good. do you like to wear makeup? only lipgloss,thin mascara, adn eyeshadow. how does it make you feel about your body when you see a edited picture of a star? great! they're fake, i'm not. sure sometimes i might wish i had they're color of hair or something like that, but otherwise, it don't bother me. i know that God made me for who i am. He gave me light skin, limpy golden brown hair and blue and brown eyes. what are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? wear something that your confident in, like that shirt that so highlights your eyes, or that pair of jeans, you know the ones. do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? yeah. remember the many pictures of stars are totally fake. try to accentuate the natural beuty in you, like your blue eyes, or your brown hair.

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No, I don't think it's OK. It gives girls unrealistic images of what people really look like, and it can lower your self esteem. They should show natural beauty! Are these good role models for us to have? Well it depends. Just because someone's airbrushed doesn't mean that they're a bad role model. But I also think magazines should show responsible celebrities that make good choices. Do you like to wear makeup? Yeah, like some eyeliner and mascara and lip gloss. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Sometimes I wish I were that skinny or that perfect-looking, but most of the time I don't care that much. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? I think every girl needs to love the way they look without makeup, cuz that's how you were made to look! Learn to love your natural, beautiful features, and go without makeup once in a while. Also, pick out one (or more) feature that you LOVE and always think of that once you feel down. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? You are BEAUTIFUL. You may not think so, but you have beauty in you! If you have something that you want to change, maybe ask your mom if you can do something about it. For example, if you don't like your eyebrows, ask her if you can groom them a little with tweezing or waxing. Just learn to love yourself and make the good things about your appearance count for more than the things ou don't love.

When I see actresses or models who have been airbrushed and perfected, a lot of times it makes me feel better about myself, not worse. Wanna know why? Because I know that as a regular, everyday person I can look amazing WITHOUT doing all of that!! Plus, I know I am beautiful inside and out. What's better than that?

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No! They do it to make us feel bad and buy more of the stuff they use! Are these good role models for us to have? If they don't agree with it, then yes. Do you like to wear makeup? Sure, but just when I have really bad zits or it's a special day. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? God made me special, and I love my body. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? By trying to keep my skin clean so I don't have to worry about what I look like Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? No, I'm not good at that

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? No. They already spend hours with makeup artists and stylists! Are these good role models for us to have? Some are, like Selena Gomez or Taylor Swift but some aren't, like Paris Hilton, ect. Do you like to wear makeup? Yes. Usually just eyeliner and lipgloss. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? I don't really care because I know it's not real. I've never been jealous of a celeb. Just other girls my age. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? Do what makes you happy, whether it's shopping or playing soccer. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Realize that they're fake.

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? I think it's okay, as long as girls look at it as a work of art and a nice picture, and not as a goal for how they should to look. Are these good role models for us to have? No, girls should set realistic goals instead of trying to look like pictures in a magazine. Because, news flash! It's next to impossible! Do you like to wear makeup? I wish i could, but i'm too nervous to ask my mom. How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? Not great, but then it motivates me to work out and eat better. So it can actually be a good thing sometimes. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? I think you just need to have confidence. Ya know that saying, confidence is the best accessory a girl can have! Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? Don't use that as your idea of beauty. If you're confident and you act like yourself, that's all that matters!

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? -No! Celebrities should be shown for who they really are. No one should like fake people. Are these good role models for us to have? -The ones who want to be photoshopped, no, because they are not famous for who they are-they are famous for who they apparentely choose to be. This is being a good role model because you are showing girls that when you are not perfect, you change how you look. That is not good because then girls will keep being unhappy with their body. This is being a horrible role model. Do you like to wear makeup? -I like to wear makeup that makes my eyes look bright, but around them dark, and I want my makeup to look natural, bright, and fun! How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? -Just remind yourself of the time that your BFF had a huge pimple in the middle of her forehead. You don't see people making fun of her about it two days later! Just get support from your friends and share flaws about yourself, but then tell each other how beautiful they are on the outside-but, more importantly, how great a friend they are on the inside. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? -Just remember that celebrities are how they choose to be. They choose to be fake. You are real! If real means having flaws, then so be it. You are who you choose to be. You are beautiful inside and out. Don't let anybody change your mind. Get support from your friends like I said before. Whenever somebody says something bad about you, or if you feel insecure, just remind yourself of your useful talents. Think about it-you aren't going to get a job (besides working in T.V., fashion, etc) because you look good. You are going to get a job because you are nice, caring, smart, and talented! Instead of thinking about the pimple on your face, think about how well you can play the flute! Good luck! *J

Is it ok for magazines and posters to photoshop and airbrush celebrities? -No! Natural beauty is best! Are these good role models for us to have? -Some celebrities are great role models while others are terrible role models. Do you like to wear makeup? -Sure How does it make you feel about your body when you see an edited picture of a star? -I feel as if I want to see what that person looks like in person. What are ways you can look and feel better without tons of makeup? -To look better is easy. Just smile! To feel better you can smile, eat healthy foods, exercise, and get a good night's sleep. Do you have a suggestion for girls who feel bad about themselves when they see pictures of stars? -Remember that many pictures of stars are edited. However, there is no need to feel bad about yourself! I know from experience that when you think negatively about yourself you just end up making things worse. If there really is something that you want to change about yourself you have to somsider a few thigns. How would I change this? Would it be safe? What is my purpose for doing this? Just keep in mind that you are beautiful! Everyone out there has standards. Just worry about your own.
