40+ Nearly Perfect Instagram Photos That Were Hilariously Ruined

One Would Anticipate Better Photoshop Skills

No matter how famous they become, celebrities are still ordinary people, just like each one of us. And even though celebrities like Khloe Kardashian have tried to create brands to be more inclusive and break down barriers in Hollywood, even they give in to the photoshop rabbit hole.

One would assume that the work would be executed more proficiently.

That’s Way Too Much

Some pictures are photoshopped to a level that may actually start giving others trust issues. How are we supposed to know what is real and what isn’t anymore? Admittedly, there are times when certain giveaways such as makeup, angles, and poses are noticeable.

However, some individuals have become so skilled in the art of deception that it’s becoming more challenging to discern what is real and what is not.

“Am I Not the Cutest?”

Something about llamas is just too cute for this earth. Their perfectly asymmetrical faces give the impression of a constant smile, warming the heart of anyone who looks at them. So, when this llama unexpectedly photobombed a picture of the view of Machu Picchu from above, the fortunate photographer was left in complete amazement.

Now, they will always have a photo of a llama posing perfectly above Machu Picchu.

And We’re Back to Khloe Kardashian

For those who have been following the Kardashians for a while, or at least keeping up with the family through social media, Khloe Kardashian’s transformation came as a surprise, given that it was unexpected.

Even though the reality star has tried to keep things real here and there, we continue to learn that even she is not exempt from the wonders of photoshop.

The Queen of Social Media

It is widely known that Kylie Jenner has undergone extensive cosmetic procedures on her body. The social media pro has come under fire several times for procedures she has done, but never as much as that one time that she decided to get lip fillers.

This picture suggests that there may be something off about the fillers used by Kylie Jenner.

Coachella, The Instagram Farm

There’s something undeniably heartbreaking about this picture. It’s likely that most of us have heard of Coachella. That huge music and arts festival that counts with the presence of some of the most known Instagram and Hollywood stars.

However, this picture makes it evident that the thrill of the moment is not enjoyed by many people, as they spend a significant amount of their time seeking content.

Instagramers Are Ruining California’s Spring

Instagram users are willing to make considerable efforts to capture the perfect shot, regardless of its authenticity. They may even go as far as altering nature itself to capture the quintessential colorful California spring photo.

When someone started posting photos of this specific spot during California’s super bloom, others followed along and ended up killing hundreds of plants.

Kylie Jenner On the Same Day

Prior to Kylie Jenner undergoing any cosmetic “enhancements,” she already had a passion for experimenting with makeup and posing at different angles on social media. For example, the picture on the left was taken on the same day as the picture on the right-hand side, but it actually looks like we’re looking at two different people.

It seems highly likely that a significant amount of photoshop was utilized in this case.

Bye Bye Eyebrows

That’s quite an awkward situation. The girl put in a lot of effort to upload a stunning photoshopped image of herself, but she failed to verify if everything was in the correct position.

When she noticed that her eyebrow was poking through her hat in the posted picture, it became apparent that there were hardly any authentic elements in the image.

More Than a Few Distortions

Here we go again with a photoshop rookie mistake. As previously discussed, there are several factors that should be verified when publishing a photoshopped image. While most people won’t notice it if the picture is slightly edited, it is almost impossible to unsee that many angles that just don’t match.

For instance, if we consider the Colosseum and the fence in the background, how could they be so distorted?

Portrait of Melania Trump

It’s understandable that the First Lady would strive for a flawless White House portrait, particularly after years of establishing an impeccable image. But even Melania Trump is human and is prone to having some fine lines here and there.

Although her portrait cleverly concealed it, an alternative angle of the photograph exposed every unwanted line in her smile.

Leg Days Have to Get Better

We’ve heard countless jokes about muscular individuals who neglect or intentionally overlook the importance of training their legs with the same level of dedication as they do for the rest of their body.

Well, it seems like this person either loves that body shape, or she went a little overboard with the photoshopping situation. To appear more natural, she may have required slightly larger calves.

And We Go Back to Khloe … Again

There are so many things that are unsettling about this picture. The before-and-after pictures are so dissimilar that once again, it’s difficult to fathom how people are capable of distorting their images to this extent.

While we are aware that celebrity pictures are almost never left untouched, this level of photoshop is just an entirely different one. Despite everything, we still appreciate Khloe’s effort to maintain authenticity every now and then.
