多少人可以不化妝、不修圖,勇敢呈現真正的自己?常常我們會因為在乎他人的眼光,用盡各種辦法,藏住自己的缺點,呈現看似「完美」的自己;美國創作歌手蔻比·凱蕾(Colbie Caillat)她就受夠了這樣靠Photoshop、化妝,只為取悅他人的生活,因此為了激勵大眾勇敢做自己,她特別創作了一首歌曲《Try》,提醒大家多愛自己一些,歌曲發行後短短數日就感動了4百多萬人。
在《Elle》雜誌訪談中,蔻比被記者問及,她是否需要為自己的音樂、形象所傳遞的訊息負責?蔻比表示,自己確實也很想和那些模特兒、歌手一樣很美的呈現給大家,也知道自己若是沒經過Photoshop修圖的話,在大眾眼裡會是一個有點醜的人,可是這也是因為大家已經習慣了,慣於看那些修過的照片、那些「美」的照片,不過其實那有多麼的不真實呀!蔻比反而覺得自己在鏡頭前沒有化妝,顯得更酷、更特別。
