Miranda Kerr's very own Photoshop fail? Former Victoria's Secret Angel is accused of making her waist slimmer for Instagram
|
With more than 2.6million followers, former Victoria's Secret Angel Miranda Kerr is one of the most active model's on Instagram -- posting personal snaps, behind the scenes images and professional shots daily.
But one image in particular, which the 30-year-old posted on Wednesday, has drawn more attention that usual; for all the wrong reasons.
Kerr's fans have accused the model of Photoshopping her waist to appear slimmer in the image, which shows her standing in the center of Doutzen Kroes and Alessandra Ambrosio, smiling backstage at the 2012 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Spot the difference: Miranda Kerr's fans have accused the model of Photoshopping her waist in this image she posted on November 13, 2013 (left); she posted the original image in November 8, 2012 (right)
This year, although Kerr was reportedly still asked to walk in the show, she was unable to attend due to commitments in Asia. So the 5ft 9in model posted the year-old image with the caption: 'Sending love and best wishes to the #vsangels from Japan xxx'.
Kerr had posted the original image, taken by a Vogue photographer backstage, in November last year -- just six months after Ms Ambrosio had given birth to a baby boy.
'Who is Miranda trying to fool with Photoshop?' The Fashion Spot forum member CommanderTMugler asked .

'That is not her waist, this is the actual picture taken last year by Vogue of Alessandra, Doutzen and Miranda backstage,' he wrote and posted a comparison between the original shot and the version posted on Kerr’s Instagram.
Designer Ange Langton shared her view of the image directly on Kerr's Instgram: '@mirandakerr maybe address this image? It's been photoshopped very obviously and it might be a good idea to communicate to your fans why it has happened.'
One observant commenter even claims that Kerr has a history of Photoshopping her own Instagram images.
Australian-born Kerr, who has been featured on the cover of magazines like Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, rose to prominence in 2007 as one of the Victoria's Secret Angels (pictured, November 7, 2012)
'I can't believe no one else has commented on this yet! I noticed starting a while ago that her Instagram photos have been Photoshopped to narrow her waist,' they wrote. 'As if she needed it anyway. It's bizarre and totally unnecessary. So disappointing!'
While Kerr did not get back to MailOnline's request for comment, she has since deleted the image from her Instagram and denied the Photoshop claims.
'When I re-posted the photo this week to support the girls I screen grabbed it off the internet when I was working in Japan,' she wrote. 'I had no idea it was photoshopped. All good intentions- sorry for the confusion and congratulations to the girls for such a great show!'
