Jezebel has done an expose on the extensive photoshopping of the Sex and the City girls by Entertainment Weekly. Their focus is the arms, and I’ll leave you to Jezebel for the body breakdown.

I’m focused on the faces and especially some editor’s need to make Kim Cattrall look 25. If she wasn’t with the others, I wouldn’t recognize Samantha. This cover is another example of the needs of editors and graphic artists to remake women in their own vision. The ‘real deal’ isn’t good enough.

Samantha’s real personality is totally gone, transformed into a sweet young thing, just like Carrie.
