Check out this video done of how they take a regular normal looking woman and make her look like a supermodel for billboards. I never really paid much attention to billboards of sprawling women in clothes before - but now when one catches my eyes, I cannot help but notice the alien sized eyes.

It's a sad truth that advertisers think they need to do this to sell. And honestly, they're not selling to guys - we don't care about the clothes she's wearing or the perfume she's apparently sprouking. They're selling to women. So is it a case of 'mind of a madman' - the monkeys stop other monkeys from getting the banana? an accidental dead-end evolution in marketing? May be sometime this century we'll see the end of this bizarre trend.
