The Model & Celeb Weight Thread [Read post #1 before posting] #2

[masquerade]

A note from the Moderators:

tFS weight discussion guidelines were created to encourage a more constructive and mature discourse regarding weight issues as they relate to fashion, models and celebrities. Prior to our weight discussion guidelines, celebrity style threads were completely derailed by weight comments and the actual style discussion was lost. This is a problem considering we're a fashion focused forum. Moreover, we had numerous members posting pro-ED comments and photos. We have a lot of young members at tFS who may be negatively influenced by such ideas. By creating a single forum to discuss weight issues, we can easily monitor such discussion.

Previous weight threads have allowed the discussion of personal weight issues. Despite our best attempts and guidelines to the contrary, extreme personal issues, misinformation, and diet and medical advice were continually present. In order to refocus discussion toward more fashion industry related issues, personal issues will no longer be allowed. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Thats a little bit hypocritical of her considering her husband went on Howard Stern and talked about how heavy she was when she was pregnant.

perhaps the pics of cat and lara are just stetched a bit?

[ablazex]

tbh i don't think they looked 'bloated' at all. catherine's face has always been kind of that shape. and lara looks the same.

I have to admit it may be the lighting.

In other pics Vlada looks skinny as always, perhaps even a bit skinnier:

But can't a model look absolutely georgious, even if she is obviously underweight??

While Jessica Simpson is not fat or overweight by any means, I can't really sympathize with her at all. She's made, for the most part, a career based on her image and when your image changes people will notice. If she wore more flattering clothes for the size she is now, maybe people wouldn't care.

saw this cartoon on jessica

this ran on the new york post!

[carmen_kass]

^Disgusting. Although McDonalds is sentencing so many kids to death....

[.amahlia.]

poor jessica she seems happy though...

[XxXRedRubYXxX]

Lara looks the same in my opinion, but Catherine looks different from when her face was smaller in FW 2007 shows.

[icelynn]

I really don't see how there's that much of a change in Jessica Simpson. Everyone was like "shocked" and she's maybe 10, 15 pounds heavier than previously. She's not "fat" I don't get it...
An unflattering outfit however

Do you really think Lara is overweight?

[edwac]

everyone disagreed with me when I first brought up the subject of Anja's weight, saying she was always like this.

and now everyone's on the bandwagon.

I don't think this issue with Lara and Cat is uncommon.

[XxXRedRubYXxX]

Are you ****ing serious? Lara is the farthest thing from fat, she isnt thin as say Anabela Belikova or Alyona Osmanova (both models whom i admire ALOT ) but she definitely is NOT FAT. Maybe my perspective is different from yours but I can't see how this:
is "alittle fat".

[Grunged]

Models are humans too, can't their faces get bloated without people accusing them of being bulimic? Sometimes people's faces get bloated due to ordinary every day things and these things don't happen to models I guess

As for Cat, her face has always been like that at least for the past two seasons. So I guess she's a full blown bulimic.
