Britney Spears On Cosmo: "Worst. Photoshop. Ever."'

By Elizabeth C.

BRITNEY'S BACK, BITCHES! Everybody's favorite pop tart graces the cover of the August Cosmopolitan. Or at least her head does, looking oversized and affixed to another person's body. Not because Britney doesn't have a good enough body -- she does. But because the photoshop job is horrifically bad.

Which brings me to Cosmo, Helen Gurly Brown's how-to-guide to stereotyping girls and life in general. Does Brit Brit adorning this tired mag mean she's already aging off the A-list? Come on, girl, make motherhood work for you the way Angelina does. Or does that require marrying up?

I am always glad to encounter like-minded commenters on the Internets, and I found no shortage of them at EW where the Brit cover was provoking spew. And I didn't even get passed the first page of comments!

"That is one ugly picture for a pretty pretty girl,'' writesBee. "Why does Cosmo like to disfigure its cover girls?

It seriously looks like bad photoshop with her face cut and pasted onto another blonde’s body." You took the words out of my mouth, Bee.

And Ambee writes, "I actually sent it to a coworker because it was alarming… terrible photoshop!"

Someone signing as etm comments,"Can’t stop staring…her chin is dipping way to low against her neck…It is the worst photoshop job ever!!!' TheLaura snipes: "Worst. Photoshop. Ever." (Thanks for my headline, TheLaura!")

And an exasperated mscisluv feels the need to apologize: "Sorry EW, I know you want us discussing the content of the article, but it’s almost impossible to get past that photo."

Oh yea, in the article Brit talks about what she'd do if her kids told her they'd want to follow in her footsteps. Brit's response: "I’d lock them in their rooms until they turned 30." Can we tell our kids the same thing if Cosmo comes calling?
