Ah, Two More Robsten Pics: Real or Manip?

manipkrisrob

I saw this picture this afternoon, and it looks like Rob and Kristen are happy to be seen out in public together now.  Is it real?

It looks like Kristen and Rob had their coming out this past weekend!  They even got cuddly at the Teen Choice Awards.  What do you say about this picture?

The delight at seeing Kristen and Rob out and about in California last week has evidently sent people flying to their computers and digging through pictures in order to…

…I don’t know.  Hone their Photoshop skills?   Live out their fantasies?  I don’t get it.  Nevertheless, these are super easy, so let’s get to it.

The Evidence

Photo Number One

The first of the shots got a lot of attention when Perez Hilton linked to the photo on his Twitter with the following comment on his tweet:

“Robsten, it sure looks like it’s official! Holding hands in Vancouver! http://bit.ly/Xd95T Why R-Patz? You can do MUCH better than K-Stew!”

Alas, since details are not Perez Hilton’s strong point, he did not bother to notice that the link took him to a post on twifans.com called manipkrisrob.

Yeah, rather a big hint there, don’t you think?

And indeed, it is a photo manipulation.  Here’s the original, which was taken during the filming of New Moon with Kristen Stewart and Michael Angarano.

They just took out Michael’s head (poor fellow) and slapped on Rob’s noggin’.  Easy enough.

Photograph Number Two

rob-and-kristenThe photograph of Rob and Kristen at the Teen Choice Awards was sent to us by a reader, and to be honest, we haven’t been able to track down where it originated.  Perhaps a reader or two would be able to help us with that detail.

Our first clue that it wasn’t real was that this photograph was not splashed on the cover of every tabloid, gossip column and website within 2.7 seconds of being released after the awards show.

And Kristen’s hand looks really odd there, too, doesn’t it?

So, yes it’s a manip.  They took the two following shots and combined them.

The Verdict

People, people, people.  We just don’t understand it.  Why spend the time creating these manipulations again and again? 

Honestly, we’re not sure if they do it to have some fun with the fans, bolster their Robsten case for the non-believers that are annoying them, or just to stare at and sigh.

And it is a bit annoying when more mainstream sites put up these manipulations without doing even a tiny bit of research into whether they are real or not.  Yes, Perez, we’re talking to you.  

Perhaps we should be positive and look at the bright side.  This provided us an opportunity to dig through and stare at all of the Teen Choice Awards photos again, so I suppose we will count our blessings! 

These photos, though?  Soooo busted.

    Yay! Awesome job again!
    I love seeing someone tackle these rumors and manips. And its great that you don’t waste time on the stupid tabloid stuff.

  2. Susan says:

    Glad you posted the truth…yet again.

    And for the umpteenth time, I knew when I saw these on the internet….people would run with it. This time I remembered the original photos and new instantly which ones they’d used. Could this stuff get any more insane? They can’t get any thing so they make it up or don’t care if there is a shread of truth in it? Whatever happend to journistic integrity?

    You guys are simply FANTASTIC! I love what you do. I am extremely experienced at using Paintshop and Photoshop and I’ve used them for years but I did not realize those two pics above were fakes. They look SO real!

    But yeah I should have known especially with the second pic, cuz I have all the ones of Rob from the TCA and I remember that pic, but then later I also saw that one of Kristen leaning lovingly on him.

    I’m with you, all this Robsten garbage is getting tired and old. These fans that want to believe in this fantasy, some of them are so going to the extremes of creating their perfect little visual fantasy I guess. It’s really kind of sad, you know?

    Anyway thanks and keep up the good work ladies! :)
