8. Zendaya Coleman Photoshopped
19-year-old Zendaya was not happy about how drastically she was photoshopped in a photo from Modeliste. She took to Instagram to sound off, where she posted a side by side of the original image and the altered image with this caption:
“Had a new shoot come out today and was shocked when I found my 19 year old hips and torso quite manipulated. These are the things that make women self conscious, that create the unrealistic ideals of beauty that we have. Anyone who knows who I am knows I stand for honest and pure self love. So I took it upon myself to release the real pic (right side) and I love it.”
The magazine pulled the pictures to which Zendaya referred. Zendaya is always one to be all about self-love. At the 2015 Oscars, she wore her hair in dreadlocks, which was received with much praise, and a fair share of criticism as well. Apparently Mattel disagreed with the criticism because they created a special, one-of-a-kind Barbie that replicated Zendaya’s Oscar look.
