Jessica Alba, Carmen Electra, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Aniston, Angelina Jolie, Cameron Diaz, Emma Watson, Halle Berry, Keira Knightley, and Jennifer Lopez are just a sample of Worth1000.com's Celebrity Cyborg photoshop contest—and despite being turned into cyborgs, they still look fabulous.
Worth1000 entrants are talented and always introduce viewers to cutting-edge Photoshop technology and creativity. No celeb is off-limits, and there are similarly no restrictions as to the extent of image manipulation.
Implications - Looking through the litany of celebrities being used for these designs, it is clear to me that no one tops Jessica Alba. Considered one of Hollywood's most beautiful actresses, Alba shines in almost anything. And here, as a cyborg, she shines even brighter. Take a look through the gallery and find your favorite!
