Blake Lively joins in criticizing Kate Middleton for her photoshop controversy, following remarks from other American celebrities such as John Oliver and Kim Kardashian.
The incident sparked a heated discussion on talk shows like “The View,” with Whoopi Goldberg defending Middleton.
Lively’s Instagram post promoting her new product line received backlash for its edited content, drawing criticism from fans and fellow celebrities like Hugh Jackman.
The incident is part of the larger “KateGate” phenomenon, which has garnered significant attention in the US media, with mentions of Middleton skyrocketing following the photoshop incident.
Comedians like Oliver and shows like “The Daily Show” have also weighed in on the controversy, with Oliver making tongue-in-cheek remarks comparing it to the movie “Weekend at Bernie’s.”
Despite the rare misstep, Middleton’s overall positive public image reмains intact, though her relationship with the press has faced increased scrutiny, particularly surrounding her recent surgery and the Mother’s Day photograph controversy.
