LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- Film star Jessica Alba forgave Playboy magazine on Tuesday for making her an unwitting cover girl after founder Hugh Hefner sent the actress a personal apology and pledged to donate money to her favorite charities.

Alba had threatened to sue Playboy after the men's magazine printed a photo of the bikini-clad actress from her 2005 movie "Into the Blue" on the cover of its March issue -- which she said duped readers into thinking she was nude inside.

Hugh is a good. SMART man...

lol another celebrity thinking they are grace

Hefner should apologize to his readers. All three of them.

Smart....must have made a mint

And much publicity was generated for both!:thumbsup

It was about time.

hef is king

good move on his part

I expect nothing less from the man who now owns GFY.

"What was intended as a tribute to your tremendous popularity has been misinterpreted by some as something else for which we are truly sorry since we are among your biggest fans," Hefner said.

Smooth move.

Although I still think it was bad judgment on Playboy's part to put Alba on the cover after she'd refused their initial request.

Hef got enough publicity he needed.

...and along with that letter of apology is also Hef's invitation at the mansion. :pimp
