Charice, Jinkee Magazine Covers: Power of Photoshop?

            Year 2012 has truly started with a BANG especially for two of the most influential women in the country, Manny Pacquio’s wife Jinkee Pacquio and internationally-acclaimed singer Charice Pempengco.

            The two made news when different reactions flooded online when the January issues of fashion magazines Preview and Mega were revealed. Preview had Charice on its cover, looking stunning and absolutely more beautiful than she has ever been, while Jinkee’s on Mega’s cover, looking dazzling and very sophisticated.

The reactions online vary from admiration to outright disbelief saying that the pictures of the two were heavily edited.

 

           The news was so hot that Jinkee Pacquio and Mega Magazine trended on twitter, as has singing sensation Charice Pempengco.

            Make-up artist Juan Sarte tweeted,” Charice for Preview Behind the Scenes video. Eto ang pruweba. Hindi po yun Photoshop (here’s the proof. It’s not Photoshop).” He provided a link to the behind-the-scenes footage on Youtube.

            While Mega’s creative director Suki Salvador defended Jinkee saying that the magazine’s cover featuring Mrs. Paccquio was “the product of photography, styling, hair and make-up magic.” She also released the behind-the-scenes footage of the photo shoot.
