Sarah Murdoch Untouched on Womans Weekly

Shock Horror, Sarah Murdoch on the cover of this month’s Women’s Weekly and.. wait for it…. SHE IS NOT AIRBRUSHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What’s worse, is she looks fantastic, not that she has looked anything less than stunning, but I think this is a great step for magazines in this country, and it will be interesting to see how long it lasts, lets hope this is the start of something positive.
What’s strange though, is I was flicking channels this morning, and came to Channel 9’s Today Show where Sarah was a host for a short period, so they were giving her big raps, I was also wondering who owns 9 and who owns Woman’s Weekly, but that’s besides the point, not more than 20 mins later, they were interviewing the trainer to the stars, who helps Hollywood celebs maintain their anorexic look, and then around the same period they had their Hollywood gossip section.
What is also interesting is one of the vocal few promoting change used to edit a girls magazine which one would assume airbrushed its photos for years.

David, I for one think this is a fantastic initiative by womans weekly, support real women, not fake airbushed corpses!

David, Didnt you work for an advertising agency that was very well regarded in the skill of airbrushing?

stop picking on Mia! :) http://mamamia.com.au/weblog/2009/08/are-cotton-on-on-crack.html
This is a fantastic step forward for the industry here in Australia and plastic surgeons everywhere must be smiling.
Not all of us show up in pictures as smooth faced and well maintained as you, Mr Goldberg.

sadly, yes, Amelia. while her crows feet are endearing, her forehead looks distinctly frozen… and you don’t need airbrushing to guess she’s been ‘toxed.
