30 Times People Uncovered How Fake Some Pics On Instagram Are And Just Had To Share (New Pics)
Most of us are probably guilty of polishing our social media accounts. Some, however, don't stop there. They go above and beyond, inventing a totally new self. Luckily, the subreddit r/Instagramreality is dedicated to exposing these fakes, and allow us to see their true colors. With 598k active members, they regularly post new findings that sometimes look too bad to be true. Yet they are. If you're done scrolling and wish to check out more similar pics, fire up our other Instagram vs. Reality posts here and here.

People Really Think They Can Photoshop Themselves Ten Pounds Lighter And Then Walk Out In Public Like No One Will Notice
I am not a trump voter, but I don't think we should bully the only adult child he has that keeps her self out of US politics. Besides, many of us have gone up and down on the scale, so comparing these pics doesn't prove she is faking photos. There are many thin pics of her that were taken by media that were not faked.
I'd probably be a fat, alcoholic drug addict if I had Trump for a father.

She’s in college. The attendant stress puts weight on you. I dropped 20lbs, without even trying, in a couple months right after graduating.
That is true, I mean this weight gain on her is recent. People need to be nicer.

Honestly I feel kind of bad for her. She gets all the crappy parts of having a trash bag for a parent without any of the perks that his other kids get. I imagine the last few years have been... not fun for her.

"Do you have any photos of you?" "Yeah, but only older ones..." "Oh, okey are you looking the same now?" "Yeah, kind of." (I can actually relate even if it maybe seems wrong 🙈)
and photoshop... come on. No amount of makeup contouring is getting rid of that extra chin.

Ok one thing I leanered about this website is that it's full of bullies, you people stay insulting and looking down on influencers who have offended no body other than making money, you are worse than these people, evil eye is a real thing. Instagramer I know are nice people and don't sit on the internet all day insulting people they don't know.
I don't know who this is or the details but some people can put on 10 pounds or lose ten pounds really fast so how do we know this is fake?
She's been getting heavier since before they went to England + had din-din with the Queen!
Never a beauty. Her mother is. This poor baby got all the worst Trump genes. and comes across as an airhead. BUT - she in law school at Georgetown - and quite brilliant. There is always nip/tuck and a change in style. She'll prevail.
Sadly - this young woman will never be a beauty - nips/tucks might help, but she got the worse Trump genes. Understand she is brilliant and a law student - she will prevail.
Maybe she actually looked like this 5 years ago. Only her hairdresser knows for sure.
Poor girl, her father is so critical of her, it must be hard on her self esteem. She's a beautiful girl.
That's the thing though... They look that different on Instagram, nobody actually recognises them when they go out. They look so different in real life.
10 lbs? Try 30. And strategically placed hair waves, oh and neck, cheek and nose shading.
its too bad that she looks more like her father in his 70's than she does like her mother at any age, so sad.
its too bad she came out looking like her father (in his 70's) than she looking like her mom at any age., so sad
While that comment is... I'll go with rude, that's Tiffany Trump I believe. Really though if you get work as a model you're not "calling yourself a model," you are a model.

Idk not gonna lie but I feel kinda bad for her because there’s kind of an expectation for her/celebrities in general to look amazing forever and 100 percent of the time. If she doesn’t look exactly like she did when she was 15-20 when she’s 30-40 pics of her are immediately photoshopped to high hell just because of the expectation so :/

Some of these people reached a level of desperation they should see professional medical help.
What pisses me off the most is edited booties. Like, I've got the same a*s these birds are Photoshoping onto themselves, yet I've been bullied for it for most of my life.
Same her just with big boobs. A f*****g nightmare in every aspect (clothes shopping, the way people treat you, back problems) but on pics it seems to most desirable thing. Whcih it really isn't !

Our poor kids these days don't stand a chance. It was bad enough when I was young with magazines and their unrealistic photos but kids now days are completely inundated with it. Not only do they see it but are encouraged to do it themselves. They are completely immersed in this fake lifestyle.
And their parents immerse them in the fake lifestyle from Day 1, making them pose for photo ops as soon as they're born.
Load More Replies... I don't know, this is depressing. All these people are lovely without the Photoshop (disregarding any personality traits, since I don't know them). The fact that they can't just be happy with who they are is rather sad.
I get a little bit of photo editing (emphasis on little). I tend to get horrific cystic acne on my chin. Think acne that you can see from across the street—even though I’m on oral & topical medication. If I take an otherwise nice photo with my family I will edit out the acne because it’s awful and I hate seeing it. But I don’t understand editing your whole face and/or body?
Azelaic Acid has improved mine a lot. Not perfect, but a LOT better. Don't know what you are taking but I've had various pills and lotions and none of them have beaten this. Threw away my prescription cream and stopped taking pills. I'm sure it doesn't work for everyone but might be worth a go.

so many kids didn't get any love and care when they were Young. its sad and pathetic
Photoshop is a horrible tool. I could understand if you want to buff out a zit you have, but to morph yourself into a whole different person? That just makes it out to be you have huge self-esteem issues and you’re spreading it to others who think that’s what they’re supposed to look like
I dunno, these people aren't trying to hurt anyone and they're obviously self conscious. We all know Instagram is edited, I feel like "calling out" these people is a waste of energy. I'm ok with getting downvoted for this, I very well might be in the wrong.
I'm so glad this c**p wasn't around when I was young... Great times.
I feel really uncomfortable with this photos. They look like ghost of their mental illness. they are not images but symptom....
And the moral of the story: Don't even try to pretend to be something you're not! Artificial pics, artificial personality, artificial people.
was there a mass breakout at Area 51 or something? Either that or Slenderman has unleashed all of his children upon the earth.
Anyone else feel queasy and a bit upset after looking at these pictures? These people need therapy not filters and fillers.
Isn't it less sinister than what most comments think? Aren't photo shopping and posting the results just a trendy game these days?? Like a mass shooting??

The young women doing this to their pictures should be bloody ashamed! There are young, impressionable tweens looking at this rubbish thinking they aren’t beautiful because they don’t look like them. I have 3 beautiful daughters and I’m angry as hell about this self promoting S#*T!
I feel so sorry for these people. Maybe it's funny, but also making fun with someone's bad psychology. If it's only funny, then there is also problem with the one who laughs with these people. And finally, maybe a lot of who criticize, also change their view to others in many other ways.
The saddest ones are those who were naturally beautiful and fresh-faced, then permanently disfigured themselves. Ex: # 23? (What Happens Over 3 Years As An “Influencer”. Her Skin Looks Burnt To A Crisp). They all look the same after plastic surgery. It's scary how younger people think it's beautiful.
I think it’s nice to see beautiful stars without photoshop and tweaking. It’s good to see that many of them are just above average.
When you look like a hip chicken at insta or FB, but in reality you are a turkey...
Then we people who want to look like that and they risk their life to change permanently with extensive surgeries.
Seriously, Instagram is kind of website where you can make yourself so perfect that people are too jealous and getting suicide

Half of these make me think they were posted by incels who are outraged that women wearing makeup is "false advertising".
What a shame. I'd hate to have their view of themselves! Cannot be a nice way to live :(
I'll be glad when the whole talons/claws look for fingernails has passed. They look dangerous and completely impractical.
I feel so sad for those people. How much self hatred do you need to have to change yourself so much....
I don't understand the need to be accepted being so strong that you create a fake image that is ridiculous, sometimes to the point of physically impossible, and is proven as much the moment you walk into real life.
I know they don't see what we see and it IS a form of mental illness. BUT SHIIIIT! Look at it! I feel so good now. I look the same whether I go buy toilet paper or go celebrate my birthday out on the town. Proud of it!
Hahahaha, Thanks for sharing this hahahaha, This made my day and week ahahahaha
Do these people realize that no one with half a brain would buy into those fake bodies and faces? I just don't get it. Desperation, maybe - but desperate for what??
Women have been doing this shite for centuries... before faking it on Instagram, it was called "Wearing Makeup".
First, a lot of these are horrible but how many times can you pick on Kailey? We get it. Second, I wish the author had chosen a better selection overall. Many of these are so horrible, they shouldn't have been included at all. I would have rather enjoyed ones that were a bit more subtle. The obvious ones are just too obvious.
I don't understand how people see themselves in pictures this way and think "yeah, that looks good, that's believable!"
thats why I delete my intagram..too much fake people, also I used to follow so many artist and I Only the same draws every time.
Or you could just let them live their life...not like its affecting you
Except it does, they set themselves up as role models and people waste a lot of time/energy and possibly their health trying to live up to their standards.
