When a company photoshops models' photos, models' and girls' self-esteem plummets to unhealthy levels. It's not just about manipulating their bodies, it has the potential to manipulate our minds. Everyone has something about themselves that they're insecure about, whether it's a part of their physical appearance or something internal. The American Medical Association (AMA) takes a stand against Photoshop, as it believes it will lead to unrealistic body expectations, eating disorders, and other emotional feelings. And it's actually true, 40% of models could suffer from eating disorders; most commonly anorexia. “The average American model weighs approximately 117 pounds and is 5'11 tall while the average American woman weighs 140 pounds and is 5'4,” (Media Influence). If this doesn't prove that models feel conscious about their weight, I know it will. A model named Cleo Glyde was eight days away from her runway show and didn't feel thin enough to fit into her outfit for the evening. So he followed the Eleven Grape Diet, consisting of three grapes for breakfast, two for snacks and six for binge eating. She eventually collapsed in the hotel and was taken to a nearby hospital. In fact, models weigh 23% less than the average woman. Celebrities, on the other hand, have very mixed opinions about Photoshop. Some love it and insist on it being done on their photos, while others, like Kate Winslet, are very against the idea of ​​Photoshop. GQ magazine retouched an image, more like a cropped image, that Winslet covered. This was done without her permission and made her look unrealistically thin, when she is known for her curves. This may have affected Winslet because she also suffered from an ailment.
