July 2006? That was quite a while before her breakdown. Something seems a bit fishy about that photo. Obviously the cover is airbrushed to fuck but she would only have been 24 then, and it was well over a year before she went into proper breakdown mode.

[AkuMifune]

She can't be that bad.

[Yaboosh]

There are multiple typos on the cover. So fake.

[StriKeVillain]

Yowch! I had to scroll past that as fast as I possibly could.

[Riggs]

This thread will be good : )

Oh how weird... Google is telling me this was Marie Claire's July 2006 issue. With "lives" spelled properly, along with another more obvious and major difference.



What a stupid thread. Did you research this at all, OP? Did you even look at the pictures for such glaring mistakes that could indicate it would be fake?

Take photos of yourself with multiple pure white studio quality fluorescent lights blasting your face, with a told-to-be-pouty expression on. Be sure to post it for us, sans editing.

I'm not a Britney Spears fan. I don't give a shit about her or really any other celebrity one way or another. But I seriously do not get the boners some people have for finding every possible opportunity to shit all over how someone looks for... fuck's sake.

[DECK'ARD]

Fake Britney killed GAF?

PopGAF you have a lot to answer for.

faaaake

Lindsay Lohan looks good to me all of a sudden.

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Which is funny because Mariah has spent her life looking like a BEFORE SHOT.

[Dreams-Visions]

all i'm going to say is...

<3 <3 <3

lol glad I came into this thread.

[Scullibundo]

why do I click? WHY DO I ALWAYS CLICK?!!

This is EXACTLY what I was going to post. Word for word.

[Mumei]

That is also a rather ridiculous looking photo of Mariah.

Aren't they all?

She was looking pretty rough in whatever talent show judging commercial I saw her in a day or two ago.

This. I can't stand it when people expose someone's real looks for derision and hate around here. If I look that good when I'm 30 (and under absolutely shitty lighting conditions) then I'd consider myself lucky.

[Lasthope106]

I call bullshit. I've seen some pictures of celebrities where they were made to look a lot older than their current age, just for shock value.

[Trent Strong]

And why do we have an unrealistic view of beauty and self-conscious body/image issues? Because they can photoshop that beast to look like the second picture and pass it off as a real person who's looks are attainable. When they photoshop girls that are actually good looking to begin with, the unattainability is even more stark.

Why would people base their body image and views of beauty on magazine photos and people on TV and not on comparisons between themselves and the real people they see around them everyday in real life?

[strafer]

She looks like a mom.

[ClovingWestbrook]

Those fingers!!! MY GOD THOSE FINGERS. ughhhhh. Horrible. She makes Christina look good all of a sudden:/

what

because they're famous

hahaha

[Koodo]

FAKE.

Both pictures come from different photoshoots. The left is a maliciously edited version of an outtake from her Cosmopolitan photo shoot (2010).



Here is the true magazine cover for that photoshoot:




Can't quite find the source for the right picture in the OP, but it likely comes from the Circus album photoshoot (2008).

[tino]

Yeah but the first photo was also photoshoped, in the reverse direction.

Look at the level and contrast. Both photos are heavily photoshop.

[Steelrain]

If this is real, it's hilarious.

Hell, even if it's not.

[Willkiller]

If a train wrecked I'd expect that train to still look like it had been in a wreck years later.

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

She looks like a mom.

Worse than a typical mom because they don't go on a hardcore drug benders in Tarzana.

[Femmeworth]

Gasp, she looks human.

[ClovingWestbrook]

Bahahaha

[McLovin]

She looks like a+ milf.

[Solo]

She has the weirdest earlobes.

[Replicant]

You're in danger OP .....

[big_z]

shes looked worn and emotionally dead for a long time. that said the airbrushing is awful. her forehead and neck are one giant splotch

Candid picture circa 2007. Woman looks 15 years older than her years, deal with it.

Everyone seems to be ok with blasting celebrities for their looks, but when the target is someone they like (even if they don't admit it), it's suddenly petty and unfair.

[Jarmel]

There needs to be a source for this or bans should be handed out. It's stupid trying to guess whether these are legit or not without knowing where these came from.

You make it sound like 30 is old. It's not. I work with a lot of women over 30 and (unless those photos are faked) most of them look better than Britney. (at least in the face, some of these women are overweight).

[ClovingWestbrook]

You're probably serious too lol

[Dark Stalkers]

she looks so heavenly and blessed

Oh, are you a mod now?

Indeed. How embarrassing for them to have misspelt Lucius.

[McLovin]

This is why internet standards suck, most of the women we want to bone aren't real.

But this is gold!

[fly high ~ayunite~]

The "unphotoshopped" photo is clearly photoshopped lol

[botty]

Brave enough to release a picture without photoshop. When will your faves?

If this is bravery I would hate to see what her fear looks like.

[Jarmel]

Oh, are you a mod now?

I want these pictures to be real but it's a waste of everybody's time if we don't know where they came from. This is just as bad as someone saying Half-Life 3 is coming out next week on Gaming Side without a source. The pictures hopefully are real so I can laugh and wonder whether Lindsay or her is worse.

[CrushDance]

You guys have some ridiculous standards. She looks fine in the original pictures.
