Impossible Beauty Standards: Jessica Alba's Airbrushed Campari Ads

If Alba can't measure up to commercial beauty standards, what does that mean for the rest of us?

If there's one thing I've always said about Jessica Alba, it's that she's fat and ugly. So it's a good thing that Campari made sure to have her photos retouched for their ad campaign instead of using her au natural.

 

I mean, without the retouching, her clavicle doesn't have a hope in hell of killing a man with a single shrug. Not to mention her knee looking all round and shit. What has she got on that thing -- muscle? tendons? Whatever it is, thank Maude it's gone.

And I've no idea what she was thinking having wrinkles in her clothes like that.

 

 

Here's more, if you can bear to look at the "before" picture without throwing up.

LOL your impossible beauty standards.
