Miranda Kerr clears up doctored image mystery

Supermodel Miranda Kerr has apologized to fans who accused the star of releasing doctored images from her recent appearance at the annual Victoria's Secret runway show.

The Aussie stunner posed for snaps backstage at the event in New York City earlier this week (begs11Nov13) and then uploaded them to her Instagram.com page.

One snap of Kerr with Doutzen Kroes and Alessandra Ambrosio caused outrage when eagle-eyed followers noticed the image had been Photoshopped to make Kerr appear slimmer.

The model has now taken to Twitter to apologize for any confusion and deny any knowledge that the picture had been altered.

She writes, "Hi guys, here is the original VS image! When I re-posted the photo this week to support the girls I screen grabbed it off the internet when I was working in Japan. I had no idea it was photoshopped. All good intentions - sorry for the confusion and congratulations to the girls for such a great show!"
