Rosamund Pike revealed that her likeness has been digitally altered on numerous movie posters during an interview with Kelly Clarkson.
Speaking to Clarkson, the “Gone Girl” actress said that she was first made aware of apps like FaceTune (which allows a user to alter their facial features) after a fellow passenger on a plane made an unsolicited comment about her appearance.
“I was on a flight with this guy, and I took a selfie, and he looked over my shoulder – someone I didn’t know – and he said, ‘Oh, no no, babe, you’ve gotta FaceTune that.’ And I said, ‘Sorry, what?'” Pike revealed.
“That was my introduction to the world of FaceTuning,” she said, adding that she realized her face and body have been changed by photo editors throughout her career.
The actress explained that in the poster for the 2011 comedy “Johnny English Reborn,” her breasts were “augmented,” giving her a “very impressive chest,” which Pike joked that she doesn’t have in real life.
She also told Clarkson that her eyes, which are green, were changed to brown in the poster for her 2020 film "Radioactive," in which Pike plays scientist Marie Curie.
"Those are the obvious times, when you do notice like, 'Oh, I've got brown eyes,' or 'I've got massive breasts,'" Pike said. "But there are probably countless times where our image is doctored and we don't notice it."
"I think we're all losing a grip on what we really look like," she told Clarkson.
Pike isn't the only star to speak out against photo-editing.
In the past, celebrities like Lady Gaga, Zendaya, and Jameela Jamil have all denounced digital edits of their likenesses, with Jamil even calling airbrushing "the devil."
