Known for her sense of humor among other things, Blake Lively poked fun at Kate Middleton and the controversies around her to promote her brands.

The health of Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, has been a topic of public speculation since she disclosed her need for abdominal surgery earlier in the year. This curiosity intensified when several prominent news outlets removed a photograph of Middleton and her kids, citing concerns over potential manipulation. Kate admitted to not being adept at photo editing, which did little to calm the media storm.
Blake poked fun at the editing scandal.
In a now-deleted post, Lively had shared an image that was clearly edited for comedic effect, featuring an oversized lemon tumbling from the heavens, a humorous nod to photo editing exaggerations. She posed for the photos as well, and they were used as promotional images for her beverage brands. «I’m so excited to share this new photo I just took today to announce our 4 new…products! Now you know why I’ve been MIA,» she captioned it.
The actress posted an apology.
Taking to her Instagram story, the actress wrote — «I’m sure no one cares today, but I feel like I have to acknowledge this. I made a silly post around the ‘photoshop fails’ frenzy, and oh man, that post has me mortified today. I’m sorry. Sending love and well wishes to all, always.»
Blake left out Kate’s name from the apology, and the fans are not happy. «We don’t need your love and well wishes. You owe it to one person!!» commented a person on Blake’s photo. «I really liked u but to jump on the bandwagon n make fun of the Princess has made my opinion of u drop immensely! Shame on u…coz at ur age u should know, u can’t take back hurting someone,» added another.
4 times Taylor Swift went makeup-free and looked flawless
Swifties, her devoted fan group, are well-known for her gorgeous makeup appearances in addition to her musical prowess and amorous exploits. Ever before her breakout single “Tim McGraw” reached the top of the Billboard charts in 2006, the singer has dabbled in a range of cosmetic appearances. In addition to lengthy lashes, Swift has also dabbled in pink tones, blue eyeliner, dark, smokey eyes, and cat eyes that are “sharp enough to kill a man.” Not to mention how flawlessly she’s worn every red lipstick. Have you ever pondered, though, how Taylor Swift looked by herself?
The star has openly admitted to have the reasonable but unwanted tendency of forgetting to remove her makeup, despite her appearing flawless beauty. In 2011, Swift told Allure, “I don’t always remember to remove my makeup. Alright, pretty much all the time.” The pop queen, though, appears just as stunning without makeup as she does when taking the stage at her sold-out gigs and appearing on TV.
paired with a grin
On January 22, 2019, Taylor Swift shared a carefree selfie wearing a denim jacket, lovely dirty blonde hair brushed to the side, and minimal makeup. She put a smile next to her “Cats” character, Bombalurina, with the proper hashtag, “Meow,” in the caption of the picture. Even without makeup, the celebrity had gorgeous eyes, full lips, and clear skin. With raised eyebrows and a slightly menacing appearance, this selfie radiates a dynamic feeling, which is enhanced by the absence of cosmetics.
Still, what can we say? You really are lovely.
On October 24, 2022, Taylor Swift demonstrated that makeup is not required to take a depressing photo, especially when she was announcing the release of her most current album. The musician, dressed in fairytale-inspired clothing, looked stunning without makeup, gazing off into the distance with her hair styled in a braided bun. The ad image’s description went on, “Midnight, such a famous and storied hour… This sparkling evening, I’ll be offering my personal interpretation of a well-known fable. Given the success of her “Midnights” album, this picture not only demonstrated Swift’s natural beauty but also her inner and outer brilliance.
True Swifties all know that Taylor Swift loves to look nice in sweaters, or should we say, cardigans. On October 24, 2018, the artist disclosed her love for turtlenecks—possibly more than her taste in makeup. The music diva flaunted her famous blond bangs and gorgeous blue eyes in a photo she took while sporting a black, form-fitting turtleneck. The post’s description joked, “Here we can observe an Australian swiftlet in her natural habitat, a turtleneck.” The subsequent images in the post showcase Swift experimenting in a natural Australian location, contributing to the grounded and organic vibe of the selfie.
Never go out of style
During the COVID-19 lockdowns, almost all active social media users posted at least one picture of themselves taken at home without makeup and captioned it with something about how bored they were. Following the trend, Taylor Swift shared a stunning makeup-free selfie on Instagram on April 27, 2020. She added, “Not a lot going on at the moment,” as the caption for the photo, her characteristic blond curls hanging just over her clavicle as she looked straight into the camera. Swift’s caption discussed the lockdown experience, but what really caught viewers off guard—or not—was how beautifully makeup-free Swift appeared.
