Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice's hilarious response after being called out for photo editing fail
Epic photo editing fails are something not even the rich and famous are immune to, and that's something reality star Teresa Giudice showed her millions of followers this week.
But The Real Housewives of New Jersey personality, 52, is taking it in her stride, laughing off criticism of a quite clearly Photoshopped Instagram photo with an even more epic response.
It all started over the weekend, when Giudice shared a birthday tribute to fellow Real Housewife Larsa Pippen, writing: "Happy Birthday to my girl [Pippen] wishing you all the best to come. Love you 💕".

It wasn't Giudice's sweet message, however, that drew attention.
Rather, it was the fact that it was obvious that Giudice and Pippen, who were in their swimsuits in front of the ocean in the photo, hadn't actually taken the snap on the beach.
It appeared instead they had been dropped into the background.
Fans were quick to point out the editing fail, with one writing: "What in the AI Clip Art is happening here?!"
"It's giving Zoom background," another said.
Another commented: "Were y'all teleported to the beach or..."

Other commenters highlighted how both Giudice and Pippen appeared to have been placed on tyre tracks in the sand, though their feet had not created any indentation.
It wasn't just in the comments where fans responded to the now-viral fail, with many creating their own versions of the photo.
Some edited Giudice and Pippen to appear in front of the pyramids of Giza in Egypt, the desert in Africa, Paris or Rome.

"Be a woman who roots for other women," Giudice wrote, adding, "supporting and encouraging them to always believe in themselves."
