Not for the first time, selfies that Beyonce posted to her Tumblr page have come under fire for appearing to show an unnatural and digitally altered image.
After posting these pics of her very slender looking waist to her Tumblr page, Beyonce has been accused (not for the first time) of having her images retouched to make herself appear thinner.

If you peer in closely at the new images it seems that her waist is unnaturally tiny after being digitally altered to pull it in, giving her arm an unnaturally flat look where her elbow crease and muscles disappear entirely.
If critics are to be believed, Beyonce has been something of a serial retoucher, with several of the pictures that she posted to her Instagram or Tumblr this year apparently being manipulated to make her waist appear smaller or her thigh gap bigger.
She’s not the only celebrity to be caught out doing it either – flick through the gallery to see the other serial re-touchers.
It seems Queen Bey is up to her old tricks again. The superstar has come under fire yet again after she shared this sexy swim suit snap, which appears to have been majorly photo shopped, on her website.

Bey’s waist seems TINY in this snap compared to her booty and thighs.
When Beyonce posted this snap in September, it seemed that her thighs had been retouched to make it appear as though there was a larger gap between them than what there actually was. If you look closely you can see the lines of the stairs between her thighs do not match up with the lines on the outside.
Perhaps in retaliation to all the photoshopping reports, Bey then posted this bootylicious snap of herself in a white bikini – showing no thigh gap (but the, she did have her legs crossed!)
Beyoncé also posted this shot to Instagram in which she appears to have morphed solid objects. Experts say that features such as this are a clear indication of digital image manipulation.
These Instagram snaps of her playing golf in a bikini while on holiday earlier this year also came under fire as they seemed to display a disproportionately large thigh gap.
Beyonce’s not the only celeb who’s been caught out photoshopping. In this pic, it seemed Ajay Rochester had an all-new look, but she isn’t even pretending this one is real. She captioned it: “Hahaha look closely! Cldnt resist sharing this. My friend photoshopped this for me (yes Kim K we know your secret now) Check out the fat shadow!”
Quite a few of Britney’s Instagram followers seemed to think that it appeared her abs looked “drawn on” in this snap that she shared with them.
The world learned a bit more about digital retouchingcourtesy of this “butt-selfie” that Kim posted with friend Blac Chyna in which their waists appear disproportionately cinched in compared to their rears. Photo-experts everywhere widely criticised the snap for clearly showing signs of manipulation because of the way the lines at the door and in the tiles all appear to curve in towards Kim’s waist – a sure fire sign that it had been pulled in.
Kim Kardashian on Instagram vs Kim spotted out later that day in the same outfit. It seems she seems to have stretched out somewhat in her selfie….
Kim’s little sister Kylie Jenner was also accused of retouching after a she uploaded what appeared to be a dodgily retouched bikini-selfie with bad pixilation clearly visible around the edges of her body (left) before deleting a few minutes later and then re-uploading a seemingly perfect version (right).
Unretouched photos from Lady Gaga’s fashion campaign for Versace were also leaked online earlier this year by website Gagafreshnews showing a highly different and washed out Gaga than what appeared in the official released ads
Lady Gaga’s September 2012 cover of *Vogue* magazine looked markedly different from how she appeared in the behind-the-scenes video that was posted online by Vogue.com.

Mariah Carey cut quite a different figure on the cover of this year’s album “Me, I am Mariah, The Elusive Chanteuse” to what she presents in real life!
Mariah was called out a second time when the un re-touched images from a photo shoot with celebrity photographer Terry Richardson for Wonderland magazine were leaked by *Jezebel* this year too.

Miranda Kerr came under fire when an image she posted from a Victoria’s Secret show (left) seemed to show her waist cinched in remarkably more than it appeared originally. To be fair, Miranda did repost the original image a week later (right) with an apology, saying that: “I screen grabbed it off the internet … I had no idea it was photoshopped”.
We can’t put it past Miranda though, note the melting wall in the room behind her when she posted this shot of herself doing ballet.
…and another one in an evening gown. Note how the lines of the carpet all appear to curve in towards her thighs, making it seem that the image had been cinched in around there.
Something odd seems to have happened to Zooey Deschanel’s nose in her ad campaign for Rimmel London (left) as it appears to be stretched out, her face lengthened and her skin unnaturally smoothed.
