Photoshopping Celebrities' Dark Sides

— September 13, 2008 — Art & Design
This Worth 1000 Photoshop contest challenged participants to make celebrities into super villains, and there were some particularly brilliant results.

Being from the UK, Prince Charles as a joker is just too funny. Angela Jolie as a robot is really strong as well--she really does look like a hardcore super villain.

Some of the images are so changed, however, that it is hard to tell who it is at first. I guess this is all part of the fun. Can you identify all ten celebrities?
