British actress Emily Blunt, 26, who stars in the new movie Wolfman, with Anthony Hopkins and Benicio del Toro, in U.S. theaters today, has spoken out about her views on airbrushing photos in magazines and the unrealistic expection of women to maintain the stick-figures of her character Emily Charlton in the movie The Devil Wears Prada (2006). The Devil Wears Prada gave an insight into the fashion world, where women are notoriously thin.
However Emily Blunt reported to LA Times magazine that:
“…It’s unfair to represent an image of yourself if it’s not true. They’re going to see what you look like on film anyway, so why try to cover your wobbly bits in a photo.”
Although Emily Blunt really hasn’t got anything to worry about yet, with vital statistics not far of those of many models, she has got a point. Airbrushing seems to becoming the ‘norm’ in a world where we expect women to maintain figures of role models seen on screen and paper; more often than not, the woman you see in the photo has been airbrushed in one way or another. What you see isn’t always what you get!
