If you're going to run a story on how celebs sometimes get sweaty armpits, it's probably not a good idea to goof up faking the images. Three-armed Beyonce is not amused.
Thanks to Just Katie, original is here.

Have you seen a truly awful piece of Photoshop work? Clumsy manipulation, senseless comping, lazy cloning and thoughtless retouching are our bread and butter. And yes, deep down, we love Photoshop.
If it is commercial and awful then please let us know! Anonymity can be arranged for the easily embarrassed/canned.

there is actually another arm above her head also...
yeah, I want to say this is a back up dancer arm
Omg there is too!!
HAHAHA
And her belt seems to go right into her hip on her right side.
I don't even think those are sweat marks... they look more like shadows.. Lol
To Ian Aleksander Adams:
A back up dancer that is standing directly behind her that you cannot see ANY other part from them besides their arms?? And wearing exactly the same clothes as Beyonce..
I think not my friend.
heh, saw these on tmz. almost all of them are badly done.
That is terrible! Fantastic find!
Okay, I count 5 arms. They two she's raising, the one hanging down on her near side, the one that's behind her head, and another arm hanging down on her far side.
Anyone got anymore? :D
pretty obvious that they pasted her over herself and forgot to clean up...
Does the back up singer in the background appear to be playing the retarded saxaphone?
Lets just say there's too many photoshop errors with this.. Lol
Her thumb is on the wrong side of her hand - looks like they flipped her right hand and put it on her left arm.
>Lou
Hold your hands out in front of you. Are your thumbs facing in or out?
wow that's really bad. I mean someone should get fired over this. This and the next one remind me of a poster my mate got from maxim or something, an obvious comp of 6 or 7 sultry ladies with extra arms, missing hands etc. I'll see if I can get a copy.
This is not a 'backup dancer' behind her. Because anatomically that would mean the person has no head AT ALL!. I don't know what to make of this photo. It's like you wonder how people can be so careless and stupid to leave something like that.
I love how this blog's comment threads are the exact opposite of the rest of the internet. Anywhere else, post a picture and there's a good chance you'll hear cries of "Photoshopped!"
:P
you guys are retarded, back up dancer is obvious
That most certainly could be someone behind her. If you look at the left side (her right), there is another arm peeking out from behind the belt, belonging to someone who may simply be shorter. If the pshopper had enough skill to insert a completely new arm with that much detail, this would be on a skill level that would not include that degree of a mistake. I say the poster is a complete douche, not the photographer.
As the previous person says, look at the belt on her right-hand side - unless it goes through her body, it's someone else behind her. It's not an arm, however; that is raised above her head (behind Beyonce's).
Actually folks, I'm afraid this ISN'T a photoshop goof. A post on Urban-hoopla.com from April 2 has 4 photos from the same event. 2 photos clearly show at least 3 backup dancers wearing remarkably similar dresses and sporting slicked back hair (as compared to Beyonce's fluffier hair-do)
But that IS a backup dancer behind her.
Here's some more angles to this event.

And if u look at the more pics from the above link you will see the belt issue is a quirk of her outfit. The same weird seam is there in the other shots. It has to be a dancer behind her and not a photoshopflub.
Dude! You post this pic and put YOUR watermark on it!
What a tool!
Go back to ebaum's world!
but but, he put a red oval on it! That's a copyright-able action, isn't it?
There's someone standing behind her - this is not a PShop "FAIL" as some have so insisted.
amazing!
i loved beyoncee before i knew she had 3 hands, now i just cant stop thinking about her!
btw, its just me, or it seems that the third hand is white, even the arm is black?
anotgher girl is standing behind her and waiving to the left. Lost your common sense while playing to much Photoshop??? Really bad photo but no photoshopping....
so long
longj0hn
How long will you leave this up, insisting it's a bad p-shop job? Looking closely at the pixels you can see very clearly that it's not at all - and from looking at the (12!) other images from the same event, you can see that there are 2 backup dancers behind her.
Yaay. Another post in which the owner of the blog has done no research whatsoever and can't tell the difference between a bad photograph and a bad photoshop.
Never mind, why find photoshop disasters when you can simply make them up!
I wondered when this blog would jump the shark. And here we are.
Yep, that backup dancer beat you.
Something is definitely up with this pic. I mean - there may be a second person behind Beyonce but has anyone considered that maybe that second person has been photoshopped out (to a degree) in order to make Beyonce appear thinner/less messy/stand out more? Looking at the perspective - something is amiss. There's no way that back up singer is that skinny - her butt or her hips have been removed.
Word.
This is actually not photoshopped-the shots were taken April 2, 2007 at the Today show concert series, and when you look at other shots from the same event, you can clearly tell that it is simply an awkward angle, with backup dancers behind wearing similar outfits. If you have an account on WireImage, you can search for event # 267584, and see all of the similar shots, showing beyonce in front of backup dancers.
That hand looks off ... I don't know much about Beyonce, but the coloring is much lighter than her skin farther down the upper arm
good point on the left hand (hers). You can see a distinct line between pinkish flesh and darker - and it's not shadow as the shadow is already further down her arm against the sleeve.
Grasping at straws on this one.....
I think if you do the leg work its obviously a back-up singer / dancer
http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/0avodhl9Li6Wb/340x.jpg
You can see her here.
Nice work on listening to reason and admitting when you're wrong.....
That sweat stain looks like pubic hair or maybe a black bra cup! That is so not sweat. Sweat does not have neat edges like that.
Oops.. time for a retraction.
back up dancers... kinda obvious
Blogs are serious business people. Has the author even responded to any of this whining? You're all acting like someone personally attacked you.
meh...
People complaining about complainers are just hypocrites. Much like complainers about complainers who complain about complainers.....
Makes sense right?
P.s Take things you read on the internet with a grain of salt. I can personally say that everything I write is light hearted and not meant to be taken seriously. Its just hard to convey this in text.
Errr...hello! People who say its not a photoshop error, it is. Because even if there WAS a backup dancer behind her, doesn't her hand look suspiciously pale from the wrist upwards, as if she stuck another person's hand on her arm?
And her belt doesn't look right either.
You have it all wrong--this is the unaltered picture. The fact that Beyonce normally appears to have only two arms is just mirrors, lighting, and camera angles. Thank god TMZ was there to uncover the truth! Long live freedom of expression, and investigative journalism!!
http://www.beyonceworld.net/gallery/performances/2007/TodayShow/images/003.jpg
The photo clearly shows a dancer clad in a dress almost similar to that of Beyonce's.
believe it or not there is actually a dancer or backup singer in an identical outfit behind her
http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/9612/13458070melodyrcr422007xy5.jpg
I thought this was a bad one too till i found a pic with the back-up singer right behind Beyonce.
Check it out here:
http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/9612/13458070melodyrcr422007xy5.jpg
You can see the backup singer is wearing the same outfit and has one arm extended over her head, this is the one that appears above Beyonce in the original photo.
I do believe the "sweat" is merely a shadow though. Most sweat appears in a more ircular shape doesn't it?
Do your homework.
http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/9612/13458070melodyrcr422007xy5.jpg
It's a backup dancer, not a shop. Though it's not sweat, probably. Just a shadow.
allllll of those pictures on that site were so shooped.
I zoomed in on her left shoulder. Yes. It is a photoshopped picture. You can see a defined line that actually shows her shoulder, yet behind that is her shoulder again, only higher. By an inch or so. You can also see her hair going over this second shoulder and it matches her hair, that is visable on her "third" arm.
There is no person behind her.
There is a dance behind her so this image isn't edited. See here

I think this picture was taken about half a second earlier.
http://img104.imageshack.us/img104/9612/13458070melodyrcr422007xy5.jpg
very similar picture but you can still see that its another person
It IS someone else's arm:
