Candy Girls Reality Show Trailer ( VIDEO VIXENS )
“You’ve seen them featured in music videos with the likes of Kanye West, Outkast, and Jay-Z, but don’t let their supporting roles fool you—these women are anything but background players.”
Ok so the idea of a video vixen reality show has been floating around for years. E! television is taking a shot at it with the premiere of Video Vixens. Honestly we don’t really recognize most of these “vixens”. We’ll see if they get it right at E!

A World with NO PHOTOSHOP
February 16, 2009 by tierra
Filed under All, Tierra's Corner

Imagine a world.
A world with no war.
A world with no disease.
Imagine a world… with NO PHOTOSHOP?!?
There was once a day where we didn’t worry about war on American soil. We didn’t worry about dying from having sex. We didn’t worry about hiring a model based on her portfolio, and having a completely different person show up. “The digital age” has changed that. Have you ever wondered why you have seen a model who takes amazing photos but you have never seen in a video, or even in person for that matter? Probably because a lot of models are unhireable for any job that can’t be photoshopped.
I remember a shoot with a model, a beautiful girl nonetheless but whose eyebrows were unkempt, had bad bikini-line razor bumps, a peach fuzz mustache, and was a bit bloated around the mid-section. I heard her tell another model she would have gotten her eyebrows done, but “they” could “fix” it later. When the photographer told her to suck in, she replied “Photoshop”. When did we become this generation of lazy, complacent, second-rate professionals?
Imagine if you actually had to have flawless skin to be a model. If there was no such thing as the “HEALING BRUSH TOOL” to smooth out acne, razor bumps, stretch marks, discoloration. If you actually had to eat right, drink water, take supplements, hire a dermatologist, cleanse, tone & moisturize properly to achieve perfect skin.
If you actually had to have a nice body to be a model. If there was no “LIQUIFY TOOL” to shrink your waistline down to 24″. If you actually had to go to the gym and hire a trainer, do crunches, sit-ups, squats, and lunges, limit your fat, sugar and carb intake, run, do pilates and yoga to give you the perfect waist to hip ratio.
If you actually had to have beautiful makeup to be a model. If there was no “fixing it later” in PHOTOSHOP. If you actually had to seek out and pay a talented makeup artist that could perfectly blend your eye shadow, manicure your eyebrows, apply your foundation flawlessly, contour your features, and choose a blush and lips to compliment your look.
If you actually had to take amazing photographs to be a model. If there was no “CUT & PASTE” to drop in scenery to the background of a picture. If you actually had to pose, work with the lighting, communicate with your photographer, the terrain, and the weather all while looking beautiful to have an outstanding overall photograph.
But you’re just a girl
You don’t understand
How it feels to live without photoshop
But if you tried, I bet you probably can…
LOL… OK, so I’m no Beyonce, and in real life, none of us are perfect, and we will never be. But why not strive to be the best YOU you can be? What ever happened to aiming for the moon so even if you miss you land among the stars? Do you know where you will be if you aim for the stars and miss?
Right back where you started.
Photoshop is like a spare tire. You should use it when you need it, but it was not meant to be a permanent addition to your vehicle. Anything worth having is worth working for, HARD.
I say to all “Industry professionals” Stop relying so much on photoshop and work harder in your careers.
Thanks to Crystal!!
