The Kardashian Kollection Promos Spark Controversy



Or should we say, Kontroversy… Get us, being all clever, playing along with the Kardashian K brand; Kris Jenner will be so proud!

Annie Leibovitz is no stranger to controversy, but that's why we love her. Her Miley Cyrus shoot was slammed for over-sexualising a young Miley and let's not forget that John Lennon and Yoko Ono foetal position shoot, but now we have a fresh new scandal with Annie's name on it…

Feast your eyes on the above image of the Kardashian girls; they look good don't they? Heavily made up with their complexions receiving additional help from everyone's best friend, the airbrush. But it isn't their faces that are attracting the negative attention, oh no…it's their bodies. Shrinking bodies.



The airbrushers didn't shrink horizontally, i.e. making their waists and hips smaller; they shrunk vertically, mainly in the form of Khloe Kardashian. Any fan of the K-Klan will know that Khloe is considerably taller than her two older sisters, but in this campaign they appear to have almost identical height. So what happened there then? Well the truth is, no one really knows! No official men in suits have sent out any statements so all we can do it guess; in this modern world though where top technology is at everyone's fingertips, it's easy to see how the picture turned out the way it did - there wasn't any dramatic limb-swapping or supernatural/Alice in Wonderland style activity…so, let's just all chill and enjoy the gorgeous (albeit very airbrushed) pictures of our favourite American/Armenian reality TV stars.
