Kim Kardashian has once again been hit with Photoshop accusations after fans noticed her disappearing muscles.
The 41-year-old has come under fire in the past over claims that she alters her pictures – and previously admitted to editing a picture of Kylie Jenner’s daughter Stormi at Disneyland, instead placing an unrelated photo of niece True Thompson over the youngster.
Yeah, we’re not sure why either…
In a new video on TikTok, commercial photographer Caroline Ross has alleged that the Kardashians star slimmed down her trapezius muscle, on the back of her neck, in her recent Instagram upload promoting her Beats collaboration.
Caroline, who posts under Caroline_in_thecity on the platform, shared a clip in which she appeared to unveil the alleged edit by highlighting tools on Photoshop.
‘Kim K is notorious for Photoshopping out her traps,’ she began. ‘Why? I don’t know, maybe it makes her neck look smaller? But this area right here has been Photoshopped out.
Nerd out with me and test your media literacy skills! Can you tell what is fake in this image? #medialiteracy #photoshopskillsonfleek #carolinesediting #photoshopgametime #greenscreen #greenscreenvideo
‘When we zoom in, we can see that the water pattern behind her has been warped.
‘Using the liquify tool on Photoshop, I’m going to now show you what it would look like without the Photoshopping applied to it.’
As the image changed, she continued: ‘As you can see, the water reflection in the background starts to look a lot more natural as well, we don’t have that warped effect.
‘We also have a behind the scenes video from the shoot to compare as well.’
The clip ended with Caroline comparing the differences between the image and video that Kim had shared with fans.
The mom-of-four’s muscles were evident in the video but were not as clear in the picture she uploaded in the carousel post.
Fans couldn’t get over the post, and questioned why the apparent changes had been made in the first place.
‘The fact that I would never have noticed but it’s painfully obvious after the fact,’ a follower penned.
‘Such a strange thing to photoshop imo,’ another agreed.
One said: ‘I’m trying to figure out why they photoshopped the pic in the first place. Nothing is wrong w her lmao.’
A TikTok user questioned: ‘How are they not totally embarrassed by some of these photoshops?’
As a fan added: ‘Why are we photoshopping our shoulders now HELP.’
Kim is no stranger to Photoshop allegations and has been hit with claims she has altered pictures of herself – or others – in the past.
Earlier this year, she made headlines after she confirmed that suspicions surrounding edited pictures of a family trip to Disneyland were indeed true.
The theory was floating around on Reddit for months before it resurfaced in April, when Khloe Kardashian confessed that snaps her sister had posted showing Chicago and True enjoying a fun day out at the theme park had been altered – as True wasn’t actually even on the trip.
After some digging, it was revealed that Stormi was there instead, but Kim had decided to place her cousin’s photo on top of hers.
Yes, seriously.
Eventually the Skims designer came clean and shared the reason behind the doctored photos, while sharing the originals.
‘The original pics were Stormi,’ she penned. ‘However I asked @kyliejenner if I could post them and she said she wasn’t really feeling posting at the moment and so I respect that!
‘But it wasn’t going to mess up my IG feed. Chi was wearing pink and it matched perfectly.’
We’re still not entirely clear on why, but anyway…
