My face did the opposite of Sarah Palin’s when I saw Andrea James’ Iggymoticons on Boing Boing. Despite the disturbing nature of turning rocker Iggy Pop’s torso into furrowed facial expressions, one can’t help but laugh out loud at these photo-fixed emoticons.
One of Gawker’s writers noted the resemblance between the musician’s wrinkled abdomen and and a sad pathetic grimace, but Andrea James’ Iggymoticons prove the point well in these Photoshopped pictures. Featuring the celebrity facelifts of Alaska’s former governor, Don Draper and Iggy Pop, these images make it hard not to discern nipple eyes and a folded bellybutton mouth.
