**Vanity Fair **achieved something amazing when they got '12 extraordinary stars' together to celebrate 'one very momentous year', but it's the Photoshop fail that has really got everyone talking.

The full photo features Jessica Chastain, Robert De Niro, Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Harrison Ford, Zendaya, Michael Shannon, Tom Hanks, Gal Gadot, Nicole Kidman, Graydon Carter and Claire Foy looking amazingly glamorous for the Hollywood Issue. However, it seems whoever was editing the photo got a bit carried away as many have spotted that they gave Reese Witherspoon an extra leg and Oprah Winfrey an extra hand.

However, the mega-stars took it in their stride. Oscar winner Reese tweeted, '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;)' [SIC]

And Oscar winner Oprah Winfrey also had a sense of humour about the whole thing tweeting, 'I accept your 3d leg. As I know you accept my 3d hand👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾❤️'

The amazing cover photo was shot by esteemed photographer Annie Leibovitz.** Vanity Fair **describes the Hollywood Issue on their website as, 'This year’s portfolio goes inside the cover’s creation, which took place in L.A. and New York as Annie Leibovitz photographed 12 of film and TV’s most iconic actors—with a non-actor corralled for the shoot for his last V.F. hurrah.'
