Photoshop Fail? Coco Rocha Says There's Nothing Wrong With Her Longchamp Ads

Coco Rocha isn't holding her tongue about a perceived "Photoshop fail" in her current Longchamp campaign with Emily DiDonato.

One of the ads, shot by Max Vadukul, shows DiDonato sitting on the back of a bicycle while Rocha steers. Since viewers can't see DiDonato's legs, and because Photoshop disasters have become so commonplace as of late, The Huffington Post was quick to question whether DiDonato's lower extremities had gotten the chop. Rocha responded:

"As you can see in the behind-the-scenes pictures above (which were posted everywhere a few months back) she's just balancing with her feet on the seat behind me. Skillful, I know, but no Photoshop disaster this time. . . I believe you stand corrected!"

Indeed, Rocha has never been afraid to speak her mind about the use of Photoshop in advertising and editorial work. In July, she tweeted, "Hey, Photoshop guys! Can you please be sure to count two arms and two legs on the girls you cut and paste? Thanks!! Sincerely, Models." Just before that, when her May cover of Elle Brazil was retouched to make it appear that she wasn't wearing a bra, Rocha dedicated a whole blog post to making it clear that she was.

Sally Singer's First T Cover Subject? Reportedly Mick Jagger

>> Sally Singer has spoken about her vision for T, but how does that vision translate? Apparently into a Mick Jagger cover, shot by photographer Max Vadukul for Singer's first issue — Holiday-centric, and out Dec. 5. Singer has also reportedly assigned a piece on autism for the issue — causing some to draw similarities to the New York Times Magazine's subject matter (as opposed to Stefano Tonchi's more stylized, ad-heavy take on the book), but when contacted for comment, Singer emailed from Paris: "I don't really feel comfortable discussing the holiday issue because it's still being put together and all sorts of things could happen."
