Celebrity Photoshoppers?

[Doug Nelson]

Everybody needs a hobby, even moviestars. While many have hobbies made possible by their huge salaries (Jay Leno's car collection), there are also many that enjoy more mundane relaxations. Jeff Bridges is into photography. Wil Wheaton is known now more for blogging than acting. James Whitmore became so known for his gardening he became a pitchman for fertilizer.

So it seems inevitable that there's some celeb out there that enjoys Photoshop. For all we know, they're here amongst us with anonymous usernames. But then again, maybe there are some out there that are known by many for their Photoshop skills, only not to me.

So, have you read about any movie/TV/sports/etc. star that enjoys Photoshop? I've been wondering about this for a long time, but now recently I've been thinking they might make for an excellent RetouchPRO LIVE show.

Or just some fun forum posting. Let me know if you've heard of anyone (even better if they have a website we can all explore). And, if you are one of these incognito stars, drop me a line using the contact link.

This is close. It turns out Dick Van Dyke is a CGI hobbyist

Did a google search about this, but all I found are B&A pictures of celebrities on which photoshop has been used ...

Flora! my god, girl, we thought you had left the planet! welcome home!!

sorry, that was pretty off topic.

i've heard, over the years, of a number of celebs who photoshop. there was a really good show on tv that dealt a lot with photoshop, until it got bought out and became the crappy 'Attack of the show' and turned all to glitz and gaming. but leo and patrick and a few others were very informative and sometimes had celebrity guests, some of whom photoshopped. but, for the life of me, i cant think of any of them right now. you also hear sometimes on talk shows of someone who does a bit, but again, i've never paid enough attention to remember now who they were. lol. so, that doesnt help a lick, i know, but i'll now be more cognizant and maybe remember to post.

Flora!!
