Singer Kelly Clarkson has told the world time and time again that she is comfortable in her own skin. Self magazine must not have felt the same way because they have altered her appearance drastically for the September cover of their magazine.

Lucy Danzinger, editor-in-chief of Self magazine addressed the new slim photo of Kelly. “Yes of course we do retouching, did we alter her appearance? Only to make her look her personal best.” Danzinger went on to say this was most likely the truest depiction they have ever put out on newsstands.

Inside the pages of the September issue Kelly addresses her appearance, “When people talk about my weight, I’m like, ‘You seem to have a problem with it; I don’t. I’m fine!’ I’m never trying to lose weight – or gain it. I’m just being.”

Oh, oh…what does that say for Self magazine? You can’t be yourself and look good! If you want an instant overhaul in the looks department–get yourself on the cover of Self!
