LeAnn Rimes was on the cover of Shape magazine back in October and it apparently didn’t sit well with some readers. After receiving numerous complaints, the editor-in-Chief, Valerie Latona, sent an email to some of those who complained. That email was leaked and reads:
Subject: To my dear Shape readers
You are all in good company (why I’m e-mailing you all together) as you all agree Shape has made a terrible mistake in putting LeAnn Rimes on the cover.
Please know that our putting her on the cover was not meant to put a husband-stealer on a pedestal-but to show (through her story) how we all are human. And this woman in particular found strength in exercise in what she said was her most difficult personal moment.
But it did not come across that way … And for that I’m terribly sorry.
I hope that we can do better the next ...
