Does Reese Witherspoon have three legs? And does Oprah Winfrey have three hands?
That’s the question Twitter is asking after the Oscar-winner appeared on the latest Vanity Fair cover for its annual Hollywood issue along with megastars like Nicole Kidman, Tom Hanks, Jessica Chastain, Gal Gadot and Robert De Niro. Instead of focusing on the star power, fans are more concerned for Witherspoon’s lower-limbs and Winfrey’s extra left hand.

Witherspoon herself weighed in, announcing, “I have 3 legs. I hope you can still accept me for who I am.”
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;) https://t.co/6GyrfWxNSY

Winfrey also got in on the fun, telling Witherspoon, “I accept your 3rd leg.”
I accept your 3d leg. As I know you accept my 3d hand👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾❤️

The Legally Blonde actress, 41, is pictured lounging on the arm of Winfrey’s chair while giving the mogul a squeeze, but her leg position appears… odd.
“Her flesh is not the same color as the inside of her dress,” one Twitter user wrote.
“Could be a Photoshop error,” mused another.
One fan went further, tweeting, “I just tried to arrange my leg in that position and tweaked my knee. Poor Reese.”

Weird. Could be a Photoshop error, but I’m not sure why they would have to Photoshop her leg into a different position. Most likely, what we see as the third “leg” is just the fabric of her dress that seems to match her skin tone because it’s in shadow.

Oh no, there are definitely 3. Look at the top of the slit. One leg upright/standing, then 2 legs angled/crossed. pic.twitter.com/g1VK5yDI1v

Vanity Fair eventually responded, saying:
While we would have loved the exclusive on @RWitherspoon‘s three legs, unfortunately it’s just the lining of her dress. https://t.co/HJjvbc037S
