Si hace un rato os contaba mi enfado con la creadora y protagonista de Girls por acusar a Tentaciones de haber abusado del photoshop en su imagen de portada sin fundamento. Ahora os escribo para deciros que Lena Dunham ha pedido disculpas a la revista española.

Lo ha hecho en Instagram, la misma red social que usó para el ataque. Aunque se excusa por la acusación y agradece a la publicación que le mandara las pruebas de que ellos no tocaron la imagen, Lena hace una reflexión y explica que lo que realmente le molestó ha sido ver una imagen en la que no se reconoce, que se elija una foto en la que luce más estilizada, no ofreciendo una imagen totalmente real de cómo es ella.

Además, explica que su intención no era culpar a nadie. Que lo que quería era reivindicar el modelo de mujer real.

Hey Tentaciones- thank you for sending the uncropped image (note to the confused: not unretouched, uncropped!) and for being so good natured about my request for accuracy. I understand that a whole bunch of people approved this photo before it got to you- and why wouldn’t they? I look great. But it’s a weird feeling to see a photo and not know if it’s your own body anymore (and I’m pretty sure that will never be my thigh width but I honestly can’t tell what’s been slimmed and what hasn’t.) I’m not blaming anyone (y’know, except society at large.) I have a long and complicated history with retouching. I wanna live in this wild world and play the game and get my work seen, and I also want to be honest about who I am and what I stand for. Maybe it’s turning 30. Maybe it’s seeing my candidate of choice get bashed as much for having a normal woman’s body as she is for her policies. Maybe it’s getting sick and realizing ALL that matters is that this body work, not that it be milky white and slim. But I want something different now. Thanks for helping me figure that out and sorry to make you the problem, you cool Spanish magazine you. Time to get to the bottom of this in a bigger way. Time to walk the talk. With endless love, Lena PS I’d love the Tentaciones subscription I was offered!
