| Khloe Kardashian is being accused of editing her face in a photo again - Insider - INSIDER Posted: 30 Sep 2020 09:53 AM PDT
Khloé Kardashian is being called out on Twitter after photos from her collaboration with Ipsy surfaced on Monday. Kardashian is the new brand partner for the makeup-subscription service, but Twitter users were more focused on her face in the photos, saying the editing made her look like Beyoncé.
Others made references to Jaqen H'ghar, one of the Faceless Men of Braavos on "Game of Thrones." Users joked that Kardashian, like H'ghar, has the ability to change her face at any time.
And some made jokes about just how frequently Kardashian changes up her look.
This isn't the first time Kardashian has been called out on social media for appearing drastically different in photos. In May, after the reality-TV star posted a picture on Instagram, people were quick to accuse her of editing the photos and getting cosmetic surgery. And in August, a fan recognized the outfit Kardashian wore during an episode of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" as the one she wore in the Instagram photo — and subsequently posted a side-by-side comparison of the images, captioning it, "Khloe... girl..." Representatives for Kardashian didn't immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.  |
| 10 years of (over)sharing - Daily Mail Posted: 03 Oct 2020 04:03 PM PDT What was your first Instagram post? Mine was a fresh-faced selfie. A 28-year-old me is peering up at the camera from my sofa. There is no caption – seemingly, I had nothing to communicate. Yet Instagram ignited an irresistible urge to share something with the world, and the world shared right back. This month, Instagram turns ten, though it's hard to believe it's not older. It launched as a simple photo-sharing app in October 2010, the brainchild of US software engineers Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. It quickly became a household name. When Facebook bought it for $1 billion two years later, the company still only had 13 employees.  Looking sharp: @lionelthehog spikes a pose for his 151,000 followers  Drink this, to look like this… yeah, right. Khloe Kardashian plugging weight-loss shakes to her 121 million followers  Revealing the lengths people go to get that 'perfect' shot has earned @influencersinthewild 3.5 million followers Even if you've never used Instagram, you can't have escaped its impact: a billion of us are active on it each month. What happens on the 'gram' hits headlines, shapes global conversations and shifts the culture. Perhaps most obviously, it has transformed the world of celebrity. Prior to Instagram, we had two ways to know famous people: via polished media appearances or the paparazzi. But today not only can I peer into the homes of the rich and famous, I can also access their thoughts. While there are some celebs who still give the app a wide berth – including the Clooneys and Kate Moss – they're the exception. Beyoncé (154 million followers) announced her pregnancy with twins on there in 2017 with a styled, semi-nude photo; the Duke and Duchess of Sussex used the app to announce that they were stepping back from the Royal Family, apparently before they'd even broken the news to the head of the Royal Family, the Queen. Even the long-resistant Jennifer Aniston joined the app last year, racking up 11.5 million followers in her first day and briefly crashing the service. 'Instagram has been a gamechanger,' says Andrew Bloch, co-founder of PR agency Frank. 'It's enabled celebrities to build a relationship directly with their fans. It's given us the chance to talk to them directly. It's also become a great commercial opportunity: many celebrities are being paid huge sums of money to endorse brands.' The Kardashians and their Jenner half-sisters have led this phenomenon. Last year, their 'momager' Kris Jenner revealed that they're paid up to six-figure sums for every sponsored post. And many TV shows now work the app into their marketing strategy. Watch Netflix's smash-hit show Queer Eye and when you flick on to Instagram, the stars will be there waiting for you to click 'follow'. On the recent series of Love Island USA, the islanders' social-media profiles were flashed up as they were introduced.  Insta inspirations: Pop star Lizzo's posts promote body positivity While in 2013, Instagram nudged 'selfie' into the Oxford English Dictionary, last year the Merriam-Webster version added 'influencer' – a new species of celebrity born on the app. An influencer is a person who rises to fame via their Instagram feed – whether their area of expertise is fashion, cleaning (take a bow @mrshinchhome) or parenting. At its worst, this has been annoying – influencers have been criticised for trying to score free holidays, or forming scrums outside other people's picturesque houses in an attempt to get a good photo. But at its best, the app has become an empowering workplace on which to build a business. 'We've seen a huge rise in female entrepreneurs who are selling directly to other women,' says Sara Tasker, author of the Instagram guide Hashtag Authentic. 'Many women have caring commitments or are at home with young children – so instead of trying to break through the glass ceiling, they've gone round the edge.' Instagram has also changed the way we shop. Hundreds of 'direct to consumer' fashion brands have found success by choosing the app as their way of reaching customers. Perhaps the most surprising development for a photo-sharing app is that it's also become a place to share words – not just a few pithy ones, but essay-like captions that explore traumas, body confidence issues, feminist manifestos and denouncements of racism. During lockdown it also came into its own as a broadcasting space, packed with celebrities, experts and 'normal people' hosting debates, virtual parties and cookalongs on Instagram Live. Jennifer Aniston racked up 11.5 million followers in her first day and briefly crashed the service That's not to say it's all good. The Instagram decade has also been one in which a mental-health crisis has emerged. A survey of 14- to 24-year-olds in 2017 found that they rated Instagram the most damaging social-media platform in this respect. The app has subsequently introduced tools to fight cyber-bullying and weed out abusive language. Often Instagram fights for both sides – take the body positivity movement. On pop star Lizzo's profile I see a powerful larger woman celebrating a body type that has long been vilified. But I also see body-sculpted women in bikinis with obviously airbrushed concave stomachs. Similarly, it's opened up new areas of our lives to scrutiny. Previously, if you wanted to show off your newly decorated living room, you'd have had to invite people over and ply them with booze. Now you can share it online. And you can make your name as a culinary marvel without anyone tasting a bite. On a more worthy note, it's a place for social action. From the 2014 ice bucket challenge (which raised £90 million in the UK for the Motor Neurone Disease Association) to the posting of black squares this year to support Black Lives Matter, Instagram allows people to display their values. So what's next? The recent addition of the video function Reels has renewed enthusiasm, and it's notable that while the Kardashians' reality TV show is ending, there's no question of them abandoning their Instagram presence. And many of us are still posting our selfies and projects. Why? Because for a billion of us, Instagram is still irresistible.

| Posted: 03 Oct 2020 05:59 PM PDT  Before clicking the Instagram video, the sight intrigued most. Sarah Palafox, a Black woman, held an iPhone while standing in front of mariachis. When users turned on the volume, they heard a woman belting out a heartbreak interpretation of Jenni Rivera's "Que Me Vas A Dar" in perfect Spanish of Mexico's Zacatecas. Instagram users said the short clip made them cry. Others demanded more. But most wondered: Who was this woman with a voice like the late Tejano star Selena? And what's her story? Palafox, an African American woman raised by a Mexican immigrant family, has generated excitement online with her versions of regional Mexican music. Born in Southern California but raised in the Mexican state of Zacatecas, 23-year-old Palafox, who goes by the stage name Sarah La Morena, has sparked emotions following a series of viral videos on social media. The clip of Palafox singing with mariachis spawned a half of million views on Instagram and another 200,000 on Twitter. Other videos of her singing banda — another form of regional music from Mexico's southwest coast — also have been shared thousands of times. (She is working on an album.) However, as Palafox has been stroking a frenzy with her voice, she's also been to the target of a racist backlash online over her love of Mexican music. A few Black social media users accuse of her being ashamed of her Blackness. Some Latino users sling racist slurs and accused her of appropriation. The insults come in English and Spanish. In an interview with The Associated Press, Palafox said the scorn is similar to what she faced after her family returned to Southern California when she was in middle school. That has led to bouts of depression and a suicide attempt in 2018, she said. "Just the fact of how I was brought up, and what I was born into, and what I got raised in, I mean, I have like the best of both worlds," said Palafox, who sports a Selena tattoo. On social media, Palafox has shared her story of being born addicted to drugs and thrust into a foster care system after authorities took her away from her biological mother, an African American woman. A devout Christian family from Mexico offered to foster her but soon fell in love with her. They officially adopted her and moved to Zacatecas, where Palafox learned to milk cows and care for horses. When the family returned to the U.S., kids in school didn't know what to make of Palafox, a Black girl who spoke no English and saw herself as Mexican. Palafox, who began singing in church, threw herself in music, specifically, the music of her parent's homeland. "That kind of music just brings back a lot of memories," said Palafox, of Moreno Valley, California. Today, as a mother of two and a recently signed artist to California-based Silent Giant Entertainment, Palafox is focusing on the positive responses to her music as the U.S. faces a racial reckoning over police shootings and systemic racism. For years, a few African American artists have tried to sing in Spanish to reach Latino fans in the U.S. and abroad. For example, Nat King Cole recorded three Spanish-language studio albums in the late 1950s and early 1960s. His Cole Español album used orchestral music recorded in Havana and he added his vocals out of California, but it was clear that Spanish wasn't his first language. Other Black artists, such as Beyoncé, have recorded Spanish versions of their popular hits at the time. Her 2006 "Irreplaceable" called "Irreemplazable" is sung entirely in Spanish. Michael Jackson also recorded a Spanish-language version of "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" called "Todo Mi Amor Eres Tú." But rarely has a Black artist embraced and authentically captured Mexican regional music like Palafox, according to Alexandro Jose, a Chicana and Chicano Studies professor at California State University, Fullerton. "She takes authenticity to a whole new level. Not only is her Spanish better than most Latinos, she identities with a village in Zacatecas. She is Mexican and this music is hers," Gradilla said. Gradilla said she is facing a backlash from some because her music represents "Black-Brown love" and highlights how close Mexican American and African American communities have been living together for decades. "And if you focus on Black-Brown love, it destroys how we look at race in the U.S.," Gradilla said. "That's why her music brings some of us to tears." Palafox said she had more music projects but declined to give details. She would only say the music will be different and she's not listening to critics who tell her she shouldn't be singing regional Mexican music. "I was told you can't wear braids, you can't wear your Afro and go on stage and sing Mexican music," Palafox said. "And to me, I'm like, why not?" Suggest a Correction |
