When your body is so skinny that you look like a bobble head doll, there is a problem.

They are beautiful.

I agree with Neil. Angelina, Eva Longoria, and Kate Hudson look just as skinny and yet the public adore them. It’s the celebs who used to be chubby then lose weight that get critisized.

I’m not trying to be Dr. Phil or anything but I think it has to do with people’s insecurity about themselves. If a celebrity has always been skinny then it’s okay because “that’s just the way they are, I can never compare myself to him/her because I just don’t have those genes”

But, if a slightly more curvy celeb loses the weight then it proves people’s much coveted theory that “they just don’t have the genes” to be false. (Of course with exception) Most people can in fact do something about their weight but are not motivated/strong willed enought to do it.

Therefore, they project their anger on the celebrities who lost the weight.

Otherwise why do people get so worked up when others lose weight? Why would they care so much and let it get to them?

That’s just human nature.

neil, what you said is right on about the gap. those fashionistas are fascists! i wonder if the gap ever stops to think there is a reason all the XLs are sold out while the size 0s are on the sale rack? hmmmm. that’s it, i am starting a revolution!

I don’t think any of them look good. Are guys really attracted to skeletons with skin??

Mischa looks least frightful of all those ladies. But, just a question - Would we all be thinking Nicole looked so “horrifying” if she’d ALWAYS been so thin?

Terri has never been an overly curvy, heavier woman (has she?) the way, I s’pose, Nicole used to be. And no one really has been targeting her on these comments. Yet, she looks equally skeletor-ific.

I’m just saying — maybe we are all entangled in this when we judge the “former chubs” so harshly.

And before you all attack me - yes, I think they all need to go eat a pork chop or two!

After seeing this post, Sophia called me over to watch last night’s Nightline, which had a story about the difficulty of women over size 12 to find clothing (or size 8 in Los Angeles). One of the most interesting tidbits was that the Gap doesn’t have plus-size items in their stores. OK, it’s a free country. They don’t have to. But what’s this?… they do have plus-size items online. So, why don’t they just sell these clothes in their stores, especially since they already have the product? I think the answer is obvious — they don’t want fat people in their store ruining their sexy image. Reminds me a little of keeping the blacks in the back of the bus, doesn’t it?
