Khloe Kardashian responds to claims accusing her of using Photoshop and excessive filters to enhance her photos in the new episode of her Khloe In Wonderland podcast. The Kardashians are no strangers to allegations of using Photoshop to give their pics the flawless look visible on their social media pages and public snaps. While some of these allegations focus on unattainable beauty standards that these snaps seem to promote, some of them target noticeable Photoshop fails, pinpointing extreme abnormalities in certain body parts.
Khloe Kardashian has mostly found herself at the receiving end of these Photoshop allegations, with numerous filter busts littered across social media. Most recently, the Khloe In Wonderland star faced the heat after fans spotted noticeable differences between the original shots of her from a photoshoot captured on The Kardashians and the edited copy eventually used on the cover of her podcast. Several fans admitted that the edited photo made her appear unnatural, with the glaring Photoshop effect.
Khloe Kardashian Addresses Photoshop Allegations in Podcast
After facing Photoshop allegations for years, the reality star finally spoke up to address the claims. On Wednesday’s episode of her podcast, Khloe Kardashian addressed several myths and conspiracy theories about her and her siblings that have flooded the internet for years. One of the speculations she addressed on the show involved her use of Photoshop. Reading out a fan comment accusing her of photoshopping every picture she posts, the TV star went candid about her use of the technology, letting the fan know she simply embraced a trend just like everyone else. The 41-year-old divulged,
“I think there was a time we were all consumed by this filter lifestyle and we couldn’t see ourselves without a filter.”
Khloe admitted that while she had her not-so-great days when she did not feel great about her appearance without the filters, showcasing her natural look was sometimes inevitable, especially when shooting a video. Regardless, she generally favored her appearance on videos over pics, as she considered herself unphotogenic. She divulged,
“I do like myself better on video than stills. I don’t think I’m the most photogenic, but I’ll take 500 photos to get the one that I like… That’s Ok, I’m allowed to do that.”
Kardashian Makes Shocking Photoshop Admission in Vulnerable Moment
Despite owning up to her heavy photo editing, Khloe Kardashian insisted she no longer relied on Photoshop to achieve the best snaps. The reality star explained how she’s reprogrammed her mind in a way that favors her raw look over the heavily edited version. She shared,
“I really had to reprogram my mind, like, we have to lay off the filters. This isn’t real, that’s not how I look, and I don’t want to look like that – but currently now, no.”
Khloe Kardashian made a vulnerable admission about her days of using the photo shop and heavy filters indiscriminately. According to her, looking back at most of these heavily edited images, she could liken herself to a cartoon character in them. With her reframed state of mind, she found it humiliating that she once thought such snaps were versions of herself.
The mom of two dedicated the rest of the episode to debunking other misconceptions about the Kardashians and Jenners, while also answering pressing fan questions. Other myths the Revenge Body star debunked on the podcast included rumors of Kim Kardashian having a 6th toe, whispers of a hidden Kardashian, Khloe’s phenotypic difference from her sisters, her relationship with Tristan Thompson, and even the dreaded Kardashian curse.
