Rumors started to circulate this week that reality T.V. star Kim Kardashian is paying an assistant that could photoshop her photos and it reportedly costs US$100,000 annually.
According to E! News, the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star asks the assistant to fix the photo first before she would upload it to her social networking sites and before her fans see them.
When asked about the rumor, Kardashian's representative released a statement saying that the reports are absolutely false. However, some believed it as they think that the photos of Kardashian especially on her Instagram account are flawless and looks really perfect.
But then again, she was dubbed as the "selfie queen" so she knows how to work her angles, good lighting and filters on the photo-sharing site.
Also, according to OK Magazine, a source reportedly shared that Kardashian used to ask a friend of hers to touch up her photos but it would take hours to get it done so she decided a pro who could do the work for her and who can be on call 24 hours a day and seven days a week.
The alleged expert also has to watch and be alert for any calls from Kardashian as she often travels and takes a lot of photos at a much different time zone. The source also revealed that the original shots are not to be exposed to the public as she had the expert sign a "nondisclosure agreement" and that in the contract all the originals must be destroyed.
Kardashian is not alone on this one as singer Beyonce Knowles is also being criticized for photoshopping her pictures as there have been many occasions where her photos on her Instagram account appear to be warped.
Meanwhile, Kardashian missing in action during the after party of the 87th annual Oscar Awards is much talked about and the reason behind this is that they she and her husband Kanye West have no one to watch over their one-year-old daughter North West.
