Someone Decided To Gender-Swap Celebrities’ Photos And The Result Is Better Than Expected
Long before Instagram and Snapchat even existed, many of us have been using various filters and effects to enhance our photos. But have any of us ever thought about what the future holds for photo editing? Over the last couple of years, AI has changed our photo editing game tremendously. The newest apps make it extremely easy to improve our facial features, try on makeup, or even turn ourselves into fictional creatures just at the tip of our thumb. One of these apps, called Faceapp, even allows its users to change... their gender. Something that was seemingly impossible decades ago can now be done quite easily.
Why would one want to do that, you may ask? Well, one of the reasons is that it's very entertaining to look at! Inspired by how far AI has come and how hilarious some of the gender-swaps are, we gathered a list of celebrities whose photos have been enhanced with this feature. Scroll down below and tell us what you think of the results in the comment section!

Long hair + make-up doesn't equal women. Lots of women have short hair. All I see in this post is adding long hair or a beard, and adding/removing make-up
It's an app people! Lighten up. Without the (facial) hair and eye make up it'd be pretty hard to create an algorithm. Don't take it too seriously.

I LOVE THIS BECAUSE IT HAS MY FAVOURITE CELEBRITY BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG 🖤🖤🖤 AND MY THIRD FAVORITE GERARD WAY
Most of these just look like what it would be to have a twin sister/brother. Although some are just absolutely horrible!
A few of the "celebrities" I do not have first hand knowledge I had to look up to know which picture was doctored.
How long did it take to figure out that the original was the left one in every one of them?

MANY of them were ALREADY gender swapped! It is very common in their, uh, "culture".
You're right. It's more about swapping gender constructions / representations than anything else. Many of them could get the same result IRL just playing with haircuts, makeup and clothes, but the app is doing pretty well with less efforts. What it tells us about stereotypes is another level of discussion... I find them all attractive and funny by the way ;-)
