A new technology allows actors'/actresses' digital images to be tweaked like never before. A person puts on a bodysuit containing thousands of sensors that record every move. Now, artists have the data to change physical aspects of celebrities on screen without changing what it is that makes them famous - their mojo. They can be made thinner, more voluptuous, less bald, etc. See what it did for me... just kidding, I didn't have a picture to go along with this story.
