What Happens When I Edit Body-Shaming Magazines

Who even reads inTouch?

What Happens When I Edit Body-Shaming Magazines

It could be for being too fat or too skinny, or even too pregnant, but our female celebrities can’t seem to catch a break. I doubt anybody even reads this tabloid nonsense, but these offensive versions of literary click-bait always find a way under my skin. Therefore, I’ve taken matters into my own “too skinny” hands and have decided to use my ace editing skills to fix one of these nasty articles!

Graphic design is my passion.

Notice how most of the main article is missing—with my fabulous Microsoft Word editing skills, I have hidden it. That would be because the whole darn cover was criticizing Kim for being pregnant. The smiley face is covering a picture of Kim eating to provide that sweet scandalous evidence of her weight gain. Overall, the whole magazine is a mess, but with my help, it can succeed. She's pregnant and in love, and inTouch magazine still finds a way to drum up those sweet, sexy scandals. They also manage to take her weight (a rather private number) and plaster right on the front page! The only positive I can find here is Heidi Klum saving her family—way to go, Heidi! Basically, inTouch should hire me ASAP to work on this troubling trend of body-shaming pregnant celebrities.

Here's the original for your viewing pleasure.

Now, here we have the original article with its shocking expose on women who gain weight while pregnant. I mean thank goodness Heidi Klum saved her family though maybe she can save this magazine after. Now, I apologize for not providing the original in its entirety, I understand my readers are eager to know why Kim forgave Nene. After what you did Nene? You're lucky she's even giving you the time of day buddy!

Here's another classic edit. This time, they are roasting women for being too skinny! Everything about this was so awful that I just had to cover the whole thing up except for their smiling faces. Also, because that first edit with Kim Kardashian took so long you can only imagine the suffering I've endured. The only other part worth keeping was Justin's beautiful face because how could I remove that? Although I recently heard he was "busted" with another woman, so I'm clearly not the only person who appreciates his sweet face. With all this drama and cutting-edge reporting, it's clear these magazines don't need to rely on body-shaming. This article can and will serve as my graphic design resume as it is one of my many passions.

P.S. This edit took me literally hours. Every minute I worked on this was Microsoft Word hell.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
