The Worth1000 Gender Bending Contest invited Photoshop gurus to mash two of their favorite actors together. The catch? Those two actors had to be of different genders. From Will Smith and Halle Berry to Chris Hemsworth and Scarlett Johansson, the resulting images will have people rolling on the floor in laughter. Especially when it comes to the ones that simply cannot mask the masculinity of the actor in question. The Sean Connery submission is one example.
Nevertheless, some of those Worth1000 Gender Bending Contest submissions are still more convincing than others. Some are a little too convincing. A young Leonardo DiCaprio and Keeanu Reeves could very well be mistaken for beautiful and confident women if they ever decided to start cross-dressing. Perhaps this contest will inspire them.
