Is that a Plutonium fiber dress?

Maxx said...

So what exactly happened here?
Was she naked so they had to photoshop a dress on her?

Does anybody have any extra limbs we can add to this picture? Make sure they have spots! We can't have anybody looking too good on this cover of Voe!

Xicão said...

Not a PSD. She is just starting to change into a mermaid.

Mrs said...

But I want to talk about the airbrushing . . . it's the AGE issue, and they've made the cover girl look like a 12-y-o.
sheesh!

Justin said...

Is it just me or is one of her eyes smaller than the other... her face does not look symmetrical to me...

Stephen said...

She became Queen of the Kitchen because she no longer had a sex life after her thighs merged into one.

David said...

And yet, I believe that Gwyneth Paltrow comes as a complete, ready assembled human being, not a collection of parts in a box with a diagram and a blue dress. You wouldn't know it from this though.

jambalie said...

So that's what Gwyneth Paltrow would look like as a badly drawn caricature brought to life in plasticine and partially melted wax. I always wondered.

George Widman said...

Appears to be use of a new (CS5)Photoshop edit option called Puppet Warp. Expect to see a lot more PSDs like this, as more use that option.

Ron said...

She has the correct number of hands. You guys are a tough crowd.

DanH said...

My honourable mention goes to the hand in the bottom right. Let's just crowbar that one onto the page shall we.

Morgan said...

Maybe they told her, "OK, Gwyn, pretend you're at your OB check-up an scoot forward another few inches for us. OK, a few more, but don't fall off the bench. OK, one more inch." But that wouldn't explain the weird edge by her left hand ... aw fergedit - PsD.

Kathy said...

Im not sure I see the problem with this one. The photo is a little weird, yeah, but Paltrow is soo skinny - she has a very tiny butt.

Melencolia said...

Can I call mrs. Paltrow butt ugly is is that off limits?

PoCoLoco said...

Oh C'MON NOW! It's not a total PS Disaster. The graphic artist responsible just needs a small hand... you know.... to go with Gwyneth's other small hand.

Ceferian said...

I didn't know Gwyneth was part Fiddler crab!

Monica said...

Twisted leg fusion. Oh God.

Jonny Dade said...

This is what happens when you go camping too close to the sun...

Davidikus said...

I shot a movie with her. Even her face does not look like that!

Lisa said...

This wasn't photoshopped; it was Picasso'd!

Donna said...

Come on now...Not even one comment about this just being a wide angle lens issue? You guys are slacking.

I bet if we look at another photo of a different angle of her, we would find a hidden wing.

Miranda said...

She's skinny as hell. What butt??? It might be a RL disaster.

VW: wines. YES PLEASE

Mik said...

My friend, who is a girl, has done that.

the bewilderness said...

It puzzles me that they seem to think they will sell more magazines by making the celebrities they put on the cover unrecognizable.

ewaffle said...

I would love to see a rendition of this image that showed both planes--one for her fused thighs and one for her hips, since they are obviously not on the same plane or even (possibly) in the same universe.

Uden Relevans said...

I seriously did not recognize her!

She doesnt look like Paltrow.
