The last time Faith Hill was on the cover of Redbook magazine, the original photo was leaked and posted on Jezebel.com, which proved that Hill's appearance was brazenly re-touched by the magazine.

SLIDESHOW: More Faith Hill Cover Shots

In case you missed that July 2007 brouhaha, it was widely agreed that it was outrageous for Redbook to go to the retouching extent it did. The magazine smoothed a clavicle, corrected crow's feet and did away with Hill's right hand. The extreme Photoshop makeover of a woman who, by all definitions, is naturally beautiful, was outrageous.

What a difference a year and a half makes. Hill is on the cover again, and inside, she poses as three other iconic blondes -- Grace Kelly, Twiggy and Brigitte Bardot. Hill says in the interview that Redbook approached her with the idea. Was it a make-good for the cover mess of a few years back? That doesn't seem to be the case. "Faith Hill is one of our favorite cover girls, and our readers can't get enough of her -- so why not do four covers?" editor in chief Stacy Morrison asked.

And although Morrison doesn't come out and say there was absolutely no retouching this time around, it sounds like it was avoided for the most part. "When you are bringing together a world-class beauty and a world-class photographer like Gilles Bensimon, the results are guaranteed to be breathtaking, Morrison said. "Gilles' use of light is so skilled that his photographs were nearly flawless as taken."

If there are any sore feelings over the cover of 2007, they've been forgotten, and Hill is happy with the current results. Her publicist Paul Freundlich said, "We couldn't be more pleased about the photos that were taken. The reaction has been overwhelmingly positive. The images are incredibly original. They were beautifully done."
