Kim Kardashian doesn’t seem to be content with just Photoshopping her face and body, or superimposing her niece True Thompson into pictures, as she has now gone one step further by Photoshopping her 28-year-old boyfriend Pete Davidson too!
And we’re not talking about a little bit of carpet retouching so as not to give away her exact location (which fans speculated was the reason behind her last bizarre picture editing) we’re talking about the Saturday Night Live comedian’s actual face – nose and jawline to be specific! And as you can imagine, the internet had so many questions!

The alleged picture editing was first brought to the internet’s attention by the Instagram account @ProblematicFame, which focuses on “spreading awareness on how instagram can impact beauty standards.” It shared a side profile picture of Pete from Saturday Night Live and compared it with a close-up from Kim’s post on Instagram and Twitter on April 11th. And now that we can see a few side by side pictures that show Davidson with a different nose and a more chiseled jawline, we can’t unsee them!
However, several insiders have weighed in, and have deemed that there was no Photoshopping to Pete’s face in Kim’s social media post from April 11th. “Pete’s nose and neck appearance were not altered in any way,” an insider reportedly told Page Six. “The image shown in the side-by-side shows his face at a different angle, and he is smiling larger so it cannot be an apples-to-apples comparison.”

Social media is, as usual, divided with its opinions. "That’s definitely photoshopped lol," one person wrote on Twitter, in reference to the Photoshop or no Photoshop debate, while another thought that Kim had edited far more than her new beau's nose and jaw, saying, "And cleaned up his bags under his eyes. He don’t look like that photo lol." Someone else speculated: "I thought to myself when I saw those photos...he looks....different..."
Other people on Twitter thought that different lighting and angles were the only explanation for the difference in the two pictures. "Lighting in the restaurant and angles," one Twitter user commented, while another added, "One picture he's laughing the other he's smiling big difference." Another said: "It’s actually a slightly different angle." We wonder if we will find out the truth either by a deliberate confession or an accidental slip-up, as was the case for Khloé Kardashian and the infamous True at Disneyland superimposing scandal.
