Fashion influencer Danielle Bernstein emphatically denies using a filter to edit her abs.
“I shouldn’t even be addressing this but I don’t use filters on my videos,” the WeWoreWhat founder clarified on her Instagram Story Tuesday.
“I take [my videos] directly on my iPhone and upload and most times through instagram direct — you guys are crayyyyy.”
Bernstein, 31, then explained that Instagram was prone to “glitches,” which may have led followers to believe she was using a filter.
“My abs are my abs, sometimes they show more than others depending if I’m flexing, the angle, the lighting etc.. if only I had the time for that much editing lol,” the designer added.
She concluded, “Also the zoom feature on insta stories glitches all the timeee.. sorry you haven’t caught me doing anything here!”
Bernstein defended herself after a fan wrote via Instagram DM, “girl I love you but your filter is glitching HARD here. Just be you.”
The embattled influencer has often been the target of public criticism following accusations that she has copied indie designers.
Last year, she was also slammed for her “tone deaf” Instagram caption that appeared to use the Ukraine-Russia conflict to help raise her company’s visibility.
However, Bernstein is not the only influencer who has been called out for allegedly altering their images online.
The Kardashian-Jenner family, who boast millions of followers online, are often slammed for their alleged Photoshop fails. Most recently, Kim Kardashian was questioned over a pic that appeared to be missing a finger.
Jenna Bush Hager recently spoke out against the use of filters on social media.
“Y’all, are we turning everybody into a Kardashian? Is that the point?” she said on “Today With Hoda & Jenna” in April, adding of an edited photo and her co-host of herself, “We look so fake!”
