People magazine denies 'Photoshopping' smiling Brangelina newborn

Washington, August 8 : Celebrity magazine People has denied using any computer software on its latest cover of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's smiling newborn daughter Vivienne, as New York magazine recently suggested.

"Contrary to blog speculation, People did not photo-shop Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt's smile. One can only guess that she is smiling because her parents are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt," Fox News quoted Sandi Shurgin Werfel, People's director of public relations, as saying.

The picture shows 3-week-old Vivienne Marcheline smiling or laughing as she lies next to her bother Knox Leon in her mother's arms.

New York magazine recently insisted an articled that babies did not smile from exterior stimulation until two to four months of age.

The article said that the picture was Photoshopped or "the babies could have been born earlier than reported to avoid paparazzi attention, as has been rumored. Or Angelina and Brad, predicting their future acting careers, are already lying about the infants' ages."
