Hands up if you thought Shane Warne’s unnaturally smooth face and wrinkle-free forehead were the product of artificial help…
In today’s cynical world it’s all too easy to jump to the conclusion that a weirdly plastic-looking 45-year-old man may have had cosmetic surgery to enhance his appearance. And it seems quite a few people did just that after pictures of him on Twitter seemed to show almost no signs of ageing.
Thankfully Shane was on hand to set the record straight, and there’s a perfectly logical reason why his face has that plastic sheen to it. Apparently it’s all to do with filters.
That’s right, all those photos of him looking like Joan Rivers are due to settings on his smartphone.
“Hahahah, you Muppets, it’s called filters! Way to easy to wind people up,” he tweeted.
That doesn’t quite explain why everyone else in his photos look normal, but who are we to question his logic? The king of spin indeed.
