LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Miranda Kerr posted a throwback photo of herself with fellow models Doutzen Kroes and Alessandra Ambrosio to her Instagram account this week in honor of the Victoria’s Secret runway show.
Followers quickly noticed that Miranda’s tiny waist had been altered to appear even smaller than normal in the picture, and the Aussie beauty took to Twitter to defend herself against accusations that she altered her own photo.
“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,” she wrote, including the non-altered image. “I had no idea it was photoshopped.

“All good intentions- sorry for the confusion and congratulations to the girls for such a great show!” she added.
The former Victoria’s Secret angel, who parted ways with the lingerie empire earlier this year, posted the altered photo on Instagram on Tuesday, with the caption, “Sending love and best wishes to the #vsangels from Japan xxx.”
