From Keira Knightley's digitally enhanced bosom in King Arthur to the Sienna Miller bra-stuffing allegations that plagued the set of G.I. Joe, Hollywood has a long and sordid history of using visual trickery in an attempt to make its leading ladies seem more appealing. But now, the Internet is rife with allegations that Jake Gyllenhaal's abs in Prince of Persia might be ... *gasp* ... painted on! Frankly, we're not sure how to react: Should we be happy that Hollywood might now be an equal-opportunity offender or upset with Jake for possibly taking a shortcut with regard to crunches?
