Faith Hill
Gossip

It's not exactly Lindsay Lohan nude as Marilyn Monroe, but this photo shoot does conjure up images of some of the beautiful celebrities of yesteryear.

In the new issue of Redbook, Faith Hill was transformed into some of that magazine's past, iconic blonde cover girls in a serious of beautiful photos.

Here's how she felt about portraying Twiggy: "She had such an innocence ... Her version was beautiful and flawless, but for me, as a woman who's come into her own a little more comfortably, it's just a different kind of beauty."

On portraying Brigitte Bardot: "I felt least like Brigitte of all three women we did. Brigitte possesses this sensual essence that is so powerful ... if I could possess that sensuality, I would want to possess it like she does."

On portraying Grace Kelly: "My mother-in-law has always told me I remind her of Grace Kelly. I think it's probably that I have this seemingly high-profile life, like Grace did, and that we were both the mother of three children."

Faith Hill has a simple message for fans around the world:

I'm no Kanye West.

The rapper has earned a reputation for reacting bitterly when he doesn't win an award - and now the country music star is in similar danger.

Of course, Faith says she was just joking when cameras showed her screaming ‘WHAT?' in apparent anger when she lost the female vocalist of the year award to Carrie Underwood at the Country Music Association Awards on Monday night in Nashville.

"The idea that I would act disrespectful towards a fellow musician is unimaginable to me," Hill said in a statement. "For this to become a focus of attention given the talent gathered is utterly ridiculous. Carrie is a talented and deserving Female Vocalist of The Year.'

Media outlets and blogs zeroed in on Hill's reaction after Underwood's name was announced at the ceremony. While other nominees - Sara Evans, Gretchen Wilson, Martina McBride - gave the typical gracious loser smile, Hill, who was standing backstage, turned to the camera and shouted ‘WHAT?'

Although her voice could not be heard, it was clear from her lips what she said. And it sounds like the biggest vernacular faux pas since Britney Spears said "I do" to Kevin Federline.

She may be off the market, but Faith Hill is still the hottest female country singer, according to a reader poll in Country Weekly magazine.

The 38-year old, whose marriage to fellow country star Tim McGraw has gotten her almost as much publicity as eight #1 hits, easily won the poll over a number of talented younger competitors.

"Faith has classic beauty, a superstar career, a great marriage to Tim and three lovely daughters. No other country star projects a sexier image," the article states.

Rounding out the top five most beautiful women in order were Sara Evans, American Idol winner Carrie Underwood, Martina McBride and Shania Twain.

Surprisingly, Natalie Maines and the other two Dixie Chicks did not make the list. A pair of newcomers, Jennifer Nettles (#6) and Miranda Lambert (#8) made the list along with country mainstays Terri Clark, Trisha Yearwood, Reba McEntire and Gretchen Wilson.

For those of you keeping score, yes, we realize that's 11 names. Give the magazine a break -- these are country music fans we're talking about. Just kidding. McEntire and Wilson actually tied for 10th.
