The singer was so bothered by her issue of GQ that she took to social media to slam the publication for editing her pictures beyond recognition according to her. “I don't even know where to start this message... Today my GQ magazine cover was made public, a cover with an image that DOES NOT represent me,” she started her message.

She accompanied the warning message with a serious-looking photo of herself wearing a white robe and pink hair with platinum blonde highlights. “My face does not look like this, my body does not look like that and I feel very happy and comfortable with how I look naturally.”

The “TQG” singer shared with her fans that a conversation was had and there was an understanding that she s very happy with her natural look and no retouching is needed. She slammed the publication for ignoring her wishes.

“Despite making clear my discontent with the number of editions you they did the photo, they didn't do anything about it, as if to look good I needed all those changes.” Karol is focused on being a good role model, this move does not help that image.

“I understand the repercussions this can have, but beyond feeling it's disrespectful to me, it's to the women that we wake up every day looking to feel comfortable with ourselves despite society's stereotypes.”
