And then I thought, "Maybe they photoshopped Katie's head onto an opera singer's body."

Always a bad idea. Your arm was in the foreground of a wide angle shot, notice the tiny heads? You could have a whole blog about why are our heads so tiny and it would be right as well. Two-shots should always be with a normal to slightly telephoto lens and not closer than say five feet? Even TV camera folks seem bent on showing molars and roofs of mouths. This photo people need to giver their subjects room to glow and be photogenic.
