Kelly Clarkson fans continue to express their outrage over the singer’s heavily airbrushed appearance on the new cover of Self Magazine.

While the 27-year-old award-winning singer says she is happy with her figure, Self editors dramatically photoshopped away Kelly’s natural curves in a set of controversial snaps in the magazine’s September issue. Lucy Danziger, editor-in-chief of the women’s health magazine, took to the publication’s original site on Tuesday to defend the retouching of the star for the second time in less than a week.

In a post on Self.com, she wrote: “Yes. Of course we do retouching. Did we alter her appearance? Only to make her look her personal best…I think this photo is the truest we have ever put out there on the newsstand.”

Clarkson fans aren’t buying it.

“Taking out red eye and airbrushing a pimple would be making her look her personal best,” fumes one angry commentor at Jezebel.com, where the controversy is brewing.

“You completely changed the way her body looked. Why even bother asking Kelly Clarkson to pose in your magazine if you didn’t think her body fit into your idea of what was best?”
