14 DAY TRIAL // Since it was first announced last week, Kim Kardashian and Kanye Wests Vogue cover and spread, has been sparking a lot of controversy. There are two sides: people who think Kim and Kanye don't belong in the magazine, and people who think they are entitled to be there thanks to their success and relevance in the pop culture.
While those debates are still going on, the spread became available online, and as soon as people got a look at the photos, some mistakes were immediately made evident. The biggest one of all, according to Gizmodo is the fact that Kanye doesn't seem to have a reflection in a photo he takes of Kim and North in front of a mirror.
As we know from so many Hollywood horror movies, only vampires don't have a reflection in the mirror and this would indicate that Kanye is, without any shred of a doubt, a vampire. However, there are some issues with the theory, since Kanye has been seen walking around in the daytime and, judging by the amount of jewelry he wears daily, he's not allergic to silver.
The other, more plausible, theory would be that a major Photoshop fail has occurred sometime between the taking of the photo and having it published in the fashion magazine. What probably happened is that, in an effort to remove the cameras and the photographic equipment from the mirror in the background, some overzealous editor also took Kanye out in the process just to keep things level.
We're not even going to mention the fact that the photo on Kanye's iPad seems to be placed there in an awkward move to replicate what is being presented to us in the original picture. The dead giveaway is that Kanye's tablet and Kim's phone seem to run parallel in the photo he's taking, whereas in real life, they're nowhere near to that position.
Internet photoshop experts also claim that the lighting is all wrong in the photo, indicating some serious tweaks using manipulation software. Also, there is wide speculation that Baby Nori was also altered, which brings in a whole new batch of moral issues about our society's view on what children should look like.
The image has sparked even more debate than Kim actually making the cover so, at this point, it's only going to be a matter of time until the photo becomes a public internet meme, with people replacing the photo on Kanye's tablet with whatever crosses their devious minds.
