Be a COVER GIRL now.

To all women in the world, we have everrry chance to be on ANY cover of any CALENDAR or MAGAZINE. They’d just crop our sides to whittle the waist, smooth color to even out skin tone, brighten our teeth and make us look like the Goddesses that we are.

Take Angelica Panganiban, for example. (aww… sweet face)

Her pictures elicited violent reactions nationwide and the ruckus was entirely due to the obvious niceties of digital enhancement done to the pictures themselves. Observe the actual pictures and compare them with the dressing room pics.


the bra style on the red bikini changed

notice the bra strap

the side strap of the bikini botton suddenly is thick

Flash news everyone: it doesn’t look real. Nothing like Adobe Photoshop to make you vavavoom gorgeous right? Women will forever feel bad seeing that it will just take digital magic and a very practiced mouse grip to whittle waists despite all futile efforts of dieting, thanks to Angelica.


Look are deceiving… but think about Preview magazine. They fix their cover girls to make them appear to have a face that will people will have a hard time recognizing – through makeup.

A few months ago, Zsa Zsa Padilla and Lucy Torres-Gomez were on the cover of Preview and you really have to do a double-take before telling who is gracing that month’s cover. So, makeup v.s. digital enhancement, which is better? Oh well, makeup cannot give you a boob lift and a flat stomach. Photo Editing can do both.

Essentially, being on any cover entails responsibility and most definitely owning up to anything related to it. How can Angelica lie on national TV with a straight face and claim nothing has been altered? She even was upset over the Internet pictures of those alleged edited pictures

There is absolutely nothing wrong with baby fats, honey. Had you had been embarrassed about it, you wouldn’t have had gone through with the whole thing, you think? What does that say about how you think about your own body when you knew all along that it was digitally enhanced?

The Angelica Panganiban Edited Photos controversy will blow over in a few days but hey, some great heads up: If you happen to have the face and a very skilled Adobe photoshop editor for a friend, don’t fret. You have a greater chance of gracing any cover at all – Bandera, Cosmopolitan, Preview, White Castle Whiskey Calendar, and even [high hopes ] Playboy.

I might drag Bong Edralin to take mine and post it soon. *wink*

  • Hello, Your site is great. Regards, Valintino Guxxi

  • sobra galing ng nag edit na katawan ni angelica. sumobra ang seksi…….
    hindi halata na talagang inayos ang katawan….

  • The hoopla is from the ten of thousands of people who know nothing about airbrushing. MAlay ba nilang retokado yung pictures…

  • ..and those photographers are Gods. woot.

  • I don’t understand the hoopla over Angelica’s photoshopped pictures. Every self-respecting photographer does it.

  • Adobe foreverrrrr rulez.

  • oh, really? yeah i noticed it.
    tsk tsk.
    says a lot but I’d love her Canon pictures.
    however she fixes that up is beyond me.

  • betsey johnson.. hmm.. the legend :)

  • pls see articles below to show how much of a liar kc is.
    she said she uses sony cyber-shot when in fact what she uses is canon (http://showbizandstyle.inquirer.net/lifestyle/lifestyle/view_article.php?article_id=31644 )
    in the 1st pic is a canon digital (http://kooki.multiply.com/photos/photo/97/55)
    in the 2nd pic, which before was “me & my powershot” became “me and my cybershot” after she
    became the endorser of sony (http://kooki.multiply.com/photos/photo/21/19.JPG)
    in the 2nd pic someone asked what kind of cybershot it was but she refused to respond
    i won’t be surprised if she would remove the pics later on
    and even if u research the website of sony, the camera kc claims as a cyber-shot couldn’t be found.

    thanks for ur time.

  • i know how to do it. liquify ang tawag ana sa photoshop madz! hahaha =)

  • adobe rules!

  • Yah! Isn’t she in her mid 60′s?

  • hahah! i saw that! she’s like a cartoon! :)

  • Everyone airbrushes pictures now. Okay..maybe not everyone but because of photoshop, people can manipulate photographs to their liking. If you’ve seen Betsey Johnson’s latest perfume ad, you’d bust out laughing. The only thing that’s authentic in the ad is the perfume bottle.

  • sad that its becoming an industry now. airbrushing angelica’s flaws might drum up more publicity for GSM but clearly someone must have hated her that much to expose those pictures.

  • Wasn’t she practicing a some sort of martial art to keep fit? What happened? She could have prepared for this shoot by working out instead of relying on the photochopping powers of the editors. There are more creative ways to hide her unflattering form. Them San Mig peeps (or whoever the culprits are) are just plain lazy.
