Even without the retouching (alleged), this new NBC promo pic of Jay Leno is extremely odd. He looks gigantic, almost like it's a giant wax-duplicate of Leno.
But the real story is that retouching that Newsweek says NBC has done with this pic for The Jay Leno Show. I don't really know if the skin tone of the hand is that different than the face, but it's certainly odd because it's not even touching his face like they want us to believe. Also: either he has had major plastic surgery or there's retouching on the face too.
I wonder why they wanted the hand there anyway. To make him look "contemplative?"

Gotta awear makeup on TV or you look like crap. Do they ever apply it to hands as well?

It's a photographic caricature.

Wow, it's not really that bad. You guys and Newsweek, find something more productive to do than analyze photos. This is asinine.

Strangely enough,... if you look at this photo
http://www.blogcdn.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2009/09/lenotca200a.jpg
You can see Leno's hands, specifically his right hand, which has slight lightening of the skin tone on the pointer finger and his hands and lower arms that are showing in the photo are darker than his face.
So I guess the "that isn't his hand" theory is kind of shot to hell.

Leno was interviewed in this mornings PGH Post Gazette. Claims he is filthy rich, but just a normal guy. To prove it he mentions that he still drives the same 1955 Buick that he had when he dated his wife. He fails to mention that he also has more than 20 Duesenbergs, countless hot rods and collectors rarities and way too many bikes, trucks, buses and locomotives to name. So I guess that makes him pretty normal....

Question: Did the doctor pull him out by the chin when born?
