'Everybody knows I have three legs!' Reese Witherspoon shuns Vanity Fair controversy during LA outing... after poking fun at THAT Photoshop fail
She was victim to a major Photoshop fail after earning a coveted spot on the cover of Vanity Fair's Hollywood Issue.
Yet Reese Witherspoon found the humour in the situation as she headed out in Los Angeles on Thursday just hours after posting a tweet reading: 'Well...I guess everybody knows now...I have 3 legs. I hope you can still accept me for who I am.'
The 41-year-old looked stylish in a simple jumper and jeans combination as she chatted on her phone with a broad smile on her face - seemingly unfazed by the widely-discussed fail which befell both her and Oprah Winfrey.

Photo-who? Reese Witherspoon found the humour in the situation as she headed out in Los Angeles on Thursday just hours after posting a tweet reading: 'Well...I guess everybody knows now...I have 3 legs. I hope you can still accept me for who I am'
For the magazine's 24th annual 'Hollywood' Issue, Oprah, 63, posed for renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz, alongside A-list stars such as Robert De Niro and with Reese sitting on her lap.
Although the pictures are undoubtedly stunning, there appears to be not one but two major Photoshopping mistakes that went unnoticed before publication.
In one of the images, Oprah has a hand on her hip, a hand on her lap, and then a third hand wrapped around Reese's waist.
The two appear to be laughing at something Tom Hanks said, and while Oprah's hands are firmly in front of her, four of her fingers are hugging her A Wrinkle in Time co-star's side.

Laughing it off: 'I guess everybody knows now...I have 3 legs,' Reese joked on Twitter
The mistake prompted people to poke fun of the magazine on Twitter, joking that the superstar does indeed have three hands and Reese three legs.
Despite this, Reese was spotted chatting away on her cell phone as she took a stroll in Los Angeles. The actress carried a cup of coffee and wore a big smile.
The outpouring of humour over the fail has been backed by the star after eagle-eyed readers took to Twitter to point out that Reese has three legs on the cover.
The blunder caught so much attention, that Reese responded to the controversy with a graceful tweet, penning: 'Well...I guess everybody knows now...I have 3 legs...

'I hope you can still accept me for who I am. ( and I will never apologize for snuggling @Oprah .. if you get the opportunity, I highly recommend it.'
Reese was dressed in blue flared jeans with distressed hems and a pair of leopard print boots. She added a black and cream striped sweater and sported sunglasses.
Her blonde locks were coiffed into a bouncy waves while she pulled on a pair of black sunglasses while also rocking delicate gold hoop earrings.
In a case of true LA glamour, legendary actor Dustin Hoffman was seen standing nearby while Reese strutted her stuff.
