Kim Kardashian accused of photoshopping shoulders in new post

Kim Kardashian has been accused once again of photoshopping one of her social media posts.

This time it’s not about trimming legs or waistlines, but her trapezius muscle around her neck and shoulders.

A viral TikTok video posted by user @caroline_in_thecity revealed that the water pattern behind Kardashian’s neck was warped, suggesting that the photos had been edited.

Caroline, who is a commercial photographer, used the liquify tool in Photoshop to show how the original picture would have looked.

The TikTok video has more than 6.5 million views and thousands of comments from viewers who were shocked, but not surprised by the photoshop faux pas.

Some viewers commented on the impact of such edits, especially on young women with body image issues.

“This is actually so not okay,” one person wrote.

“You would think that now that they have daughters they would think about the impact of this more.”

The Kardashians are notorious for editing their pictures, and have been exposed many times over the years for their alleged photoshop fails.

Earlier this year, Kim deleted a bikini picture from her Instagram page after fans pointed out her right leg appeared significantly smaller than her left leg.

The star also faced backlash when fans noticed her “third hand” in a snakeskin-inspired photoshoot.

In April, Kim Kardashian admitted to photoshopping certain posts for the first time.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum addressed speculation that she had edited her then-boyfriend Pete Davidson’s jawline, and took to her Instagram to shut down the photoshop rumours.

However, Kardashian did confirm fan theories that she photoshopped pictures of her daughter, Chicago West, and Khloe Kardashian’s daughter, True Thompson, which were taken at Disneyland theme park.

The Kardashian-Jenner family has often been exposed for editing their pictures, whether it’s trimming their legs, waistlines, or even photoshopping their children.

For one person, their issue was not that the Kardashians edit their photos, but the “fact they deny it/avoid talking about it”.

Another user said: “I swear the Kardashians’ Instagrams are why I have body image issues.”

In Kardashian’s Instagram post, the reality star also included an unedited video from the photoshoot, which Caroline screenshotted and used as a side-by-side comparison of the photoshopped image.

“We also have a behind-the-scenes video from the shoot to compare as well,” she said, showing the before and after shots of the edited post.

“There’s the before for reference, and here’s a screenshot from behind-the-scenes video where you can see her neck and trapezius.”

Although Caroline’s TikTok video exposed the photoshop fail, some fans pointed out that they wouldn’t have noticed it if it weren’t for the video.

“The fact that I would never have noticed but it’s painfully obvious after the fact,” said someone else.

“I don’t understand why they do it, the non-edited original is so much better looking,” another user commented.
