On January 28th, Facebook user “Fantina” published a photo, which allegedly depicts Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada. The photo features Justin Trudeau wearing a dress designed for women’s beauty pageant, wearing a crown and holding a bouquet. In addition, Trudeau’s sash features the following inscription: “Miss Take.”
The disseminated image has been altered using a software. In fact, the authentic photo depicts an American model Olivia Culpo, winner of the 2012 Miss Universe beauty pageant.
