Julia Fox & Grimes Discuss Dangers Of Photoshop For Celebrities

by

Some celebrities, such as the Kardashian-Jenner sisters, are constantly being called out for Photoshop fails on Instagram. Others, like Julia Fox, are now using their platforms to discuss the dangers of altering images – especially when celebrities do it without offering any form of transparency. For the latest episode of her Forbidden Fruits podcast, the mother of one sat down with co-host Niki Takesh and Canadian artist Grimes to discuss the future of artificial intelligence, as well as some of the problems that can come with such advanced technology.

“A lot of celebrities Photoshop their images, so girls have unrealistic expectations, like, ‘Why can’t I look like that?’” the Uncut Gems actress pointed out. While normal people may envy their favourite stars, Fox cautioned listeners, “Boo, they don’t even look like that!” Grimes then chimed in with, “Yeah I feel like the idea that the average person is a 10 right now is very impressive if you’re a kid… It’s very concerning, it’s the most irresponsible thing tech is doing right now.” From Fox’s perspective, the new features constantly coming out are “demonic.”

Of course, the Italian-born starlet has previously been candid about undergoing plastic surgery herself. Seeing as she’s been transparent about having liposuction and Botox, fans have commended Fox for her realness. The problem seems to lie with those who aren’t straightforward about the work they’ve had done, or the alternations they make to their Instagram uploads, leaving followers to desperately desire to be or lust after something that isn’t even real. Following today’s episode, the “Player of Games” songstress will be back for another appearance later this month, likely to spill more tech tea.

Others who have already been interviewed by Julia Fox and Nikki Takesh include Emily Ratajkowski, Amber Rose, and Billy McFarland, who was the first official guest on the podcast’s second season back in March.

Amber Rose & Julia Fox Discuss Dating Kanye West In New “Forbidden Fruits” Episode: Watch

by

The list of women who have been involved with Kanye West throughout his career certainly isn’t short. In the early days of his rise to fame, the father of four was previously on and off with designer Alexis Phifer and spent a brief period with Harlem Heights star Brooke Crittendon. Not long after those ended is when his first high-profile relationship, with Amber Rose, caught the public’s attention. They were also making up and breaking up from 2008 to 2010, though some of their most iconic fashion moments remain imprinted in the brains of pop culture fanatics everywhere.

Following that romance came the birth of Kimye as Kim Kardashian dissolved her 72-day marriage to Kris Humphries in 2012. In December of that same year, the socialite announced her pregnancy with their first child, which the “All of the Lights” rapper followed up with a proposal. They went on to welcome three more children, though their marriage was unable to stand the test of time and ultimately ended in 2022. West went on to spend time with models like Irina Shayk and Candice Swanepoel, though it was his short-lived union with Julia Fox that really had the masses talking.

As the second season of her Forbidden Fruits podcast kicks off, the Uncut Gems actress welcomed Rose onto the show to discuss what it was like to date the 45-year-old. At one point, the OnlyFans creator recalled West offering to come to a close family member’s funeral with her, which she adamantly refused. “I called Kanye like, ‘F*ck, I need a ticket home right now. My aunt just died, she’s like my favourite person on Earth,” she shared. “He was like, ‘I’ll come to Philly with you. I’ll come to the funeral, whatever you need.’ And I was like, ‘You can’t come to the funeral. The whole [thing] is gonna be about you.”

“Not you pulling up to your auntie’s funeral with Kanye West,” co-host Niki Takesh joked. “You know he’d find the AUX cord, and he’d start playing his new song, Julia Fox chimed in with a laugh. Elsewhere in this week’s episode, the Forbidden Fruits personalities and Rose discuss how she “ascended to fame on her own terms” while correcting some of the misconceptions around her come-up.
