Graphic designer James Fridman has been taking the internet by storm by giving people exactly (and we mean exactly) what they ask for in photoshop requests. 

Unwittingly becoming a satirical genius, James is creating waves by exposing the ridiculousness of the requests he gets from people to 'alter' their photos. 

From looking to photoshop out an "embarrassment" to asking for a big butt à la Kim K, James is more than willing to teach people a lesson. 

Posting his final products to Twitter, the photoshop whiz is becoming a viral sensation. 

Though we can't imagine he'll be getting any more genuine requests as these bad boys start to circulate the internet. 

Take a look at some of his finest work below: 

 

And just when you thought James was all about making fun of people, he went and taught this young girl an invaluable lesson. 

Winning!

Lena Dunham has never been one to hold back with her opinions, and mostly she's totally on the ball.

Today though, there's been some unexpected drama, which started this morning when she called out a Spanish-language magazine for Photoshopping an image of her for their cover.

So far, so unsurprising. Plenty of magazines using editing tools, and Lena wouldn't be the first celebrity to hit back about it.

"[T]his is NOT what my body has ever looked like or will ever look like – the magazine has done more than the average photoshop," she wrote in a comment directed at TENTACIONES magazine, who feature her on their March cover.

However within hours, staff at the magazine responded – and explained they hadn't used ANY editing tools on the image. 

In fact, all they had done was crop the edges so it would fit their cover, a simple task that can be done using any PC.

"For the front cover of the magazine we used an image from the shoot you did in 2013 with the photographer Ruven Afanador, and which was published at the time by Entertainment Weekly," the open letter reads. 

"Here at TENTACIONES, we acquired the photo via the Corbis agency, and we used the original that they sent us without applying any kind of retouching. 

"Those who are familiar with and follow our magazine will know that we do not use Photoshop nor other digital tools to change the physical appearance of our cover stars, nor in the features to be found inside.

"On this occasion, the only thing we did was to crop the image to adapt it to the format of our front page."

They also linked to an original copy of the image, shared on Facebook by photographer Ruven Afanador back in 2013. Awks.

And they were sure to finish things off just a little cheekily, saying, "We are delighted to see that you still have your rebellious spirit. Let us have your address and we’ll send you our magazine as a courtesy every month, so that you can see for yourself that we like to reflect things the way that they really are."

Now to wait and see what Lena has to say…

Khloe Kardashian just got busted for photoshopping her gym seflie… and she's not happy. 

After receiving abuse on the Instagram picture, she quickly deleted it, but a few hours later took to the social media site with the unretouched image saying, "If only hatin burned calories how dope yall would be. Too bad it doesn't. Here's the OG shot. The petty movement ain't cute. Oh and I almost forgot… Namaste."

By posting the original image, Khloe made it obvious that very little was photoshopped anyway, just a small part of her thigh.

The reality star didn't touch her tummy area, which we have to say is slaying. Koko, you're killing it.

Even though it's bad for the company, we do love when a big brand make a big photoshop fail.

And the latest to enter the hall of fame? Snickers. 

The ad features a woman in a swimsuit, with a blue sky and calm beach surrounding her. But when you look again, there's not only a mysterious hand on the woman's shoulder, there's also a bag strap in her hand and her belly button is beside her boobs. 

But before you get annoyed at how bad it is – Snickers did this on purpose. The line on the ad reads, "Photo retouchers get confused when they're hungry."

According to AdWeek, there's a total of 11 photoshop fails in the campaign. Can you spot them all? Tweet Snickers when you do.

By now, most of us have resigned ourselves to the fact that the majority of fashion magazines heavily Photoshop their covers and photo shoots. 

Heck, even celebrities are photoshopping personal photos just to put them on Instagram. 

And with apps such as Facetune, absolutely anyone can a achieve a flawless selfie. 

However, some of these photoshopped pics are too ridiculous to be believed. 

1) Lena Dunham 

When Lena's gorgeous Vogue cover and shoot was released, everyone thought it was gorgeous. 

That was until Jezebel got hold of the untouched edits and released the images side by side pointing out every single change made to poor Lena. 

And there was a lot. 

2) Jennifer Lawrence 

Poor Jennifer Lawrence has had the life photoshopped out of her gorgeous figure in these two scandalous magazine shoots. 

3) Kate Winslet 

Kate is a gorgeous woman, but not even a new born baby has skin like this. 

4) Kim Kardashian 

Kim K already looks flawless simply going about her day to day life but even she is not free from the photo editing trolls. 

5) Lady Gaga

Vogue photoshopped Lady Gaga into a totally unrealistic body shape. 

6) Britney Spears 

The Queen of Pop has suffered too. 

7) Keira Knightley 

This promotional picture of Keira for the film King Arthur properly gave her a boob job.

Irish beauty Vogue Williams regularly updates fans with behind-the-scenes snaps from shoots, showing off her downright AMAZING body.

Despite being very open about the gruelling lengths she goes to in the gym to keep her lean figure in check, Vogue was the subject of some controversy recently after one photo in particular earned her some negative attention.

Writing in her Sunday World column yesterday, Vogue referenced a photo she had posted last month showing her in underwear, a sweater and knee-high socks.

Many commenters suggested Vogue had Photoshopped the area around her thighs to make her legs look slimmer, pointing at her large thigh gap as evidence that editing software had been used.

"I posted a photo to my Instagram last week during a shoot I was doing. Now I know I shouldn’t read comments on websites but I can’t help myself sometimes," she said.

"I also got some direct mails on Instagram telling me I didn’t need to Photoshop myself, so I thought I would use this opportunity to set the record straight.

"I didn’t Photoshop myself in this picture at all, I used filters, but I don’t even know if it’s possible to Photoshop a picture so small.

And I don’t know how to use Photoshop either!"

If you're wondering how exactly Vogue does get her perfect body, we'd suggest ignoring those Photoshop claims and directing your attention to this:

James Franco loves Emma Watson so much that he just went and got a tattoo of the star inked on his NECK. 

The actor revealed his new tattoo in a topless Instagram post, with the caption, "I love Hermione. Ink by @idiangiver."

 

A photo posted by James Franco (@jamesfrancotv) on

The tattoo is a portrait of Emma with her hair up in a bun and below it is her name. 

Now, thanks to Ed Sheeran sparking a huge debate over his lion tattoo, the Internet is VERY sceptical as to what is real and what is fake – and many IG users are right with this one; it's a fake. 

In fact, it's the clever work of artist Cheyenne Randall, who uses his Photoshop skills to add ink to pictures of celebrities. 

He tagged James in his original post, writing: "@jamesfrancotv #shoppedtattoos."

You almost fooled everyone James, fair play.

Many stars turn to Photoshop to slim down their curves, but not Zendaya.

The 19-year-old knows she should be promoting a positive body image to her young fans – which means taking a stand against excessive editing of her images.

After photos from her recent Modeliste cover shoot were published on the magazine's site yesterday, the singer noticed that one picture in particular showed a drastically slimmed-down version of her hips and thighs.

She took to Instagram to address the issue and show fans the "real" her, but not before ensuring the offending image had been removed from Modeliste's site.

"Had a new shoot come out today and was shocked when I found my 19 year old hips and torso quite manipulated," Zendaya wrote on Instagram this morning. 

In the retouched photo seen on the left, both of Zendaya's thighs have been airbrushed down, and her waist size has also been noticeably decreased.

"These are the things that make women self conscious, that create the unrealistic ideals of beauty that we have," the young star continued.

"Anyone who knows who I am knows I stand for honest and pure self love.

"So I took it upon myself to release the real pic (right side) and I love it. Thank you @modelistemagazine for pulling down the images and fixing this retouch issue."

This isn't the first time Zendaya has spoken out in favour of natural beauty, of course.

Back in February, she took to Twitter to slam the Fashion Police hosts for mocking her red-carpet dreadlocks – a scandal which led Kelly Osbourne to quit the show and Giuliana Rancic to issue a public apology.

The moral of the story? Don't mess with Zendaya.

North West may only be a toddler, but sometimes we feel like she's already more mature than her dad, who seems too busy planning to run for Prez with Taylor Swift to think about growing up.

We're not the only ones who feel that way, if these photos are anything to go by.

Kim kardashian and North visited Milk Studios in New York yesterday, and one Imgur user decided to transform this sweet snap…

…into this.

And this…

And (best of all) this…

AMAZING.

Earlier this year, an unretouched photo of supermodel Cindy Crawford posing for Marie Claire magazine went viral, appearing on countless websites around the world.

The photo, supposedly a "pre-Photoshop" version of an image that appeared in Marie Claire Latin America's December 2013 issue, was praised by many for showing what a "real" body looks like, even that of a world-famous model.

Now though, Cindy has spoken out about the leaked photo for the first time, and admits she felt "blindsided" by the whole affair.

The 47-year-old model claims the image was digitally manipulated to enhance any normal flaws even further, and that it wasn't an accurate representation of her body. "That picture didn’t reflect what I saw when I looked in the mirror—even in the worst dressing-room lighting," she tells Elle Canada.

"It was stolen and it was malicious."

Despite believing that the image had been altered, Cindy says she felt under pressure to appear unfazed by having her flaws on show to the whole world.

"I was very conflicted, to be honest," she admits. "It put me in a tough spot: I couldn’t come out against it because I’m rejecting all these people who felt good about it, but I also didn’t embrace it because it wasn’t real – and even if it were real, I wouldn’t have wanted it out there."

The mum-of-one adds that the photo definitely put a dent in her confidence. "I know my body, and I know it’s not perfect, but maybe I have a false body image; maybe I think I look better than I do. I think that most women are hard on themselves," she says.

At the time of the image's publication, celebrity photographer John Russo released a statement claiming it was "a fraudulent altered version" of the originally published photo.

While she was far from happy that the image was ever circulated, Cindy says she can understand why so many women took comfort from it.

"Somehow seeing a picture of me was like seeing a chink in the armour. Whether it was real or not isn’t relevant, although it’s relevant to me."

In a refreshing change from the norm, actress Emma Roberts has launched a new lingerie campaign without any image retouching whatsoever.

The 24-year-old is the newest face of Aerie, and as part of the label's #AerieREAL project, her first shoot is completely Photoshop-free. The campaign has already featured a number of unretouched models over the last year, but Emma is the first celebrity to sign up.

Emma's shots show her posing in a bra and underwear, and while she looks nothing less than gorgeous as always, it's definitely a positive development to see normal bodily features like freckles, varying skin tone and stretchmarks not being edited out for once.

The actress said she was delighted to be approached, especially after seeing the other #AerieREAL ads on billboards around New York. "Unlike other ads that make me feel like I need to work out more, or I need to buy this for my face — those made me feel good, not like I had to hide behind anything," she told Refinery29.

Despite going without the Photoshop safety net for the first time, the Scream 4 star said she didn't have any pre-shoot nerves. "I've actually never felt more confident and comfortable on a set — which is amazing, because you don't have that safety net. But I saw the photos and was like, you know what? This is great — this is just me, in clothes I feel good in, being who I am."

Growing up in the spotlight, Emma's no stranger to Hollywood's high beauty standards, but she says her real motivation for the shoot was to reassure other young women that it's okay not to be perfect. 

"I have a little sister who's 14, and I see how insecure she gets looking at photos on Instagram and Twitter. People post photos that aren't real. So to be able to be like, 'This is me as Emma, not Emma Roberts,' was important to me."

The actress isn't the first celebrity to give fans a glimpse of the person lurking behind all that retouching. When Khloé Kardashian bared her newly toned body for Complex last month, she was quick to share a 'before-and-after' shot of one of the images to prove that her flawless look wasn't all down to Photoshop:

We hope others soon follow in Emma and Khloé's footsteps.

About a week ago, Chrissy Teigen made women extremely happy everywhere by posting a picture of her legs to Instagram showing her stretch marks.

This sent women into a frenzy because the stunning model appears to have flaws just like the rest of us.

She has now explained to Meredith Vieira the reason for the photo.

She said: "I actually am working on a cookbook and I was bumping around in the kitchen and the door handle would just nick me every single time."

She continued: "And I was actually just taking a picture of the bruises and then I saw the stretch marks in there. I have those apps, the Facetune and Photoshopping ones, and I just didn't feel like doing it anymore—and I'm never doing it again, because I think we forgot what normal people look like now."

We can definitely relate. 

​She claims: "It started with Botox and everything, of course, but now it's just grown into this Photoshop phenomenon and I've seen these women in person, they are not like that. Please know that. I've shot in barely anything with them and it's just amazing what people do to tweak themselves."

Good job Chrissy.

Hopefully the model and wife of John Legend has started a trend.
