Hmm, On camera or onstage no-one is a "natural" beauty.
I think the objectification of women and the "requirement" for them to look flawless is absurdly troubling.
With makeup and photoshop we create a fantasy image of what these celebrities look like, and they should be required to look like that all the time?
Photographers can make anyone look great, even astoundingly beautiful -bare in mind that it's a trick of the art.
(even Jaime Pressly)
