Gabourey Sidibe cover lightened by Elle Magazine? (Photos)

In a recent media frenzy Elle magazine has been accused of lightening Gabourey Sidibe’s cover and cropping in closely to hide her body. There are three other covers this month featuring: Lauren Conrad, Amanda Seyfried and Megan Fox. The other covers are three-quarter shots and clearly show the bodies of the actresses. Elle Magazine released this official statement to Yahoo:

“Nothing out of the ordinary was done. We have four separate covers this month and Gabby’s cover was not retouched any more or less than the others. We had 25 cover-worthy subjects in our portfolio and we chose Gabby because of who she is. We shot this as a story of exuberant young women changing the world. If you take a look at the portfolio, each of the women were shot in different ways and for different reasons.”
