Do the Kardashians use photoshop?

The following is a fictionalized account.

Therapist's Notes:

During today's therapy session with the Kardashian sisters, the topic of their involvement in photo editing controversies was discussed. Khloe initially defended herself against accusations, claiming her photos reflect her natural beauty. However, Kim and Kendall pointed out various incidents where editing seemed apparent, leading to a back-and-forth debate among the sisters. The conversation turned into a playful argument, with each sister bringing up past instances of Photoshop mishaps in an attempt to deflect criticism.

As their therapist, I emphasized the importance of addressing body image struggles and the impact their edited photos have on their fans and society's perception of beauty. They expressed concern about living up to the expectation of flawlessness due to their brand. It was challenging for them to accept responsibility for promoting unrealistic beauty standards.

To foster a healthier self-perception and promote authenticity, it was suggested that they consider embracing imperfections and showing the world the real Kardashians. The session ended with mixed responses, as the sisters were eager to conclude the therapy and continue with their busy schedules.

Next steps will involve further exploration of body image issues, self-acceptance, and understanding the potential positive impact of genuine representation on their followers. It will be crucial to help the Kardashians adopt healthier coping mechanisms and become more mindful of the influence they have in shaping beauty ideals.

Transcript:

Dr. Nygard: Good afternoon, ladies. I see we have quite a collection of... interesting incidents here. Let's start with Khloe. It seems you've been quite popular when it comes to Photoshop accusations. What's going on there?

Khloe: It's not my fault if people can't handle my fabulousness! I didn't edit my photos. Tsk, it's just my natural beauty!

Kim: Oh please, Khloe. We all know that booty looks way too perfect to be real. It's impossible not to raise an eyebrow, darling.

Kendall: Don't be so hard on her, Kim. We've both had our fair share of Photoshop mishaps. Remember my extra long hand?

Kim: [rolling her eyes] Oh, Kendall, your hand was reaching for Mars in those photos. Why didn't you just Photoshop another planet in there to make it a little more realistic?

Kendall: You're one to talk, Miss "let's superimpose my niece's face on my daughter's body." How do you explain that?

Kim: It was an artistic choice, Kendall! And it's not like you haven't faced accusations yourself, Miss Long Fingers. I bet you could wrap those things around the entire room!

Kourtney: [sarcastically] Oh, please, Kim. Let's not forget your famous trapezius muscle that mysteriously disappears in some photos. What kind of workout magic is that?

Kim: At least I don't go around looking like Toni Braxton with a warped ab machine. That's just next level, Khloe.

Khloe: [defensively] That was the paparazzi's doing! They caught me at a bad angle. You know they love to make us look ridiculous.

Dr. Nygard: Ladies, let's focus here. The whole point of therapy is to address these issues and find healthier ways to cope with body image struggles. It's important to understand the impact your edited photos have on your fans and society's perception of beauty.

Kim: But Doc, our edited photos are our brand! People expect us to look flawless all the time. It's not fair to expect us to be real.

Dr. Nygard: Ah yes, the Kardashian brand. But is it really fair to perpetuate unrealistic beauty standards?

Kourtney: We're not responsible for the world's self-esteem, okay? We're just living our lives, enjoying the perks of fame, and bickering about finger lengths sometimes.

Kendall: And let's not forget the time Kris tried to cuddle Chicago in a photoshopped picture. Seriously, Mom? Your fingers were longer than a giraffe's neck!

Dr. Nygard: It's essential to establish healthier self-perceptions and promote authenticity, both for yourselves and for your followers. Maybe it's time to consider embracing imperfections and showing the world the real Kardashians.

Khloe: [huffs] Fine, whatever, Doc. Let's just get this over with. Can we go now? I have a photoshoot to attend.

Dr. Nygard: We'll continue our work in the next session. Remember, honesty and self-acceptance are key to a genuinely fulfilling life. Good luck, ladies.
