Britney Spears Goes Unretouched

4/21/2010 11:44:00 AM by Colleen Moody

They say when it rains it pours, and this proves true in the case of celebrities showing it all. First came Jessica Simpson on Marie Claire, next Kim Kardashian in this month's issue of Harper's Bazaar, and now Britney Spears wants the world to see her unretouched.

Brit released her Candie's ad last week and with it, both the finished version and the not so finished version of her at the shoot. We love that celebs are calling their own bluff to their super skinny airbrushed ads but this ad in particular pulled at our beauty heartstrings because Britney looks so normal.

We give props to Simpson, Kardashian, and all the other celebs going unretouched but even some of their shoots have had people scratching their heads wondering if there wasn't even the slightest alterations made. In this ad, you can clearly see Brit's legs smoother in the retouched version, along with some disappearing cellulite from her back shot. Here's the front:

Our words to Brit – you go girl! The best part about these ads is that we think she looks just as great in the unretouched version, because she looks more like us! It's refreshing to see her in a normal light and suddenly, that bathing suit we've been dreading wearing all winter long just got a little more appealing.

What do you think of Brit's ads? Do you like that celebs are showing the unretouched versions of themselves or is ignorance beauty bliss?

Guess what? Real Beauty is nominated for a Webby Award! Don’t forget to vote for us here!
