There’s been a lot of talk over the September 2009 Self Magazine cover story image of Kelly Clarkson… Like all cover images, this one has been airbrushed/photoshopped:

However, the cover story is titled “Stay True To You And Everyone Else Will Love You, Too”. Which, given just how photoshopped the picture is, seems a bit hypocritical and/or ridiculous to many people.

What do you all think? Discuss your thoughts in the comments section!

Here’s a recent photo of Kelly to compare to the magazine image:
