While drawing inspiration from celebrities is common, critics argue that Meghan's attempt at mimicry falls short, with noticeable discrepancies in the pose and body shape becoming evident.
Social media users and professional photographers have pointed out alleged Photoshop alterations in Meghan's Vogue cover image, particularly in the area of her lower body. The lighting and shadows around her body have raised suspicions about possible retouching.
Users have compared the differences between Christy's and Meghan's poses, highlighting variations in body proportions and muscle engagement. Some argue that Meghan's pose lacks the elegance and authenticity seen in Christy's effortless execution.
Beyond the yoga controversy, Meghan has faced accusations of imitating Christy Turlington in her humanitarian efforts, specifically in the realm of safe birthing practices in Africa. Christy Turlington is known for her work in founding the non-profit organization Every Mother Counts in 2010.
As the discussions continue, the public remains divided over whether Meghan's tribute to Christy Turlington was genuine or a mere imitation, reigniting debates on the use of Photoshop in the media and the complexities of celebrity influence.
The controversy sheds light on the challenges and scrutiny faced by public figures, as well as the constant evaluation of authenticity and originality in the world of fame and influence.
