HOW BADLY PHOTOSHOPPED WAS HALLE BERRY FOR THE NEW HARPER'S BAZAAR COVER?

Halle Berry appears on the cover of May's Harper's Bazaar, prompting the NY Daily News to label her the "latest victim of overzealous Photoshopping." A magazine-cover subject (gasp) Photoshopped? They don't say. The paper notes that she looks "older than usual." The retoucher did not, you'll notice, completely remove the bags under Berry's eyes. You know, the ones that basically everyone in the world has. In the world of retouching, that's pretty rare. Though they did smooth her wrinkles. Maybe the problem is the unflattering side lighting on her face. And that her hair is, weirdly, almost the same shade as her skin.
