Is it a trend these days that celebrities getting thinner?

Question

i mean look at j.lo, she seems to have lost her famous booty
and beyonce, she slimmed down, and nicole richie, catherine zeta jones, etc

Answer 1

yes and I think it is a shame... they were way hotter when they had a lil meat!

Answer 2

These days? Its been fashionable to be thin for ages and I honestly don't get it. When the fashion started about fifty years today men complained saying that they thought it was sick and unattractive that women should try and make themselves look like boys but now its come acceptable. I still, however, thinks its ugly but I am now, apparerntly in the minority. My flatmate even said the other day "I like the annorexic look."

However, your right, it does seem to be getting worse. I think its become a new way for celebreties to compete. Its so sad though. Just look at Linday Lohan - she used to be so beautiful and now - urg! And Madonna's album where she's in that pink leotard. Yuk! Doesn't she know that women her age are meant to be rounded?

Sorry for the rant! I am bisexual and I find it annoying that so many women make themselves uglier whilst believing they are improving thier looks!

Answer 3

Media culture, rampant obsession with the looks;
Dominate a society increasingly shallow, no more interest in books;
Sad fate created to boost profits and ratings.

Answer 4

ladies a approach or the different get a false impression with reference to the dimensions they think of that they must be for a guy to love them.............maximum adult men which contain myself want ladies who're curvy i assume is a thank you to declare it.........I advise the main adult men do choose a woman to have some meat on her bones....... some adult men like greater meat than others yet this guy sounds like he likes you basically the form you're........................ distinctive human beings carry weight otherwise via your age and the relatively build of your physique yet when I have been to guess at 5'3" a sturdy suitable weight could be one hundred twenty to one hundred thirty possibly even one hundred thirty five reckoning on the dimensions of the upstairs and down stairs in case you realize what i'm asserting..............

Answer 5

Yeah, the pressure is on to be just about as skinny as possible. As overweight people begin to lose weight, those who are already just about normal, are trying to get even skinnier as if they are trying to outdo the those who were once or are still overweight.

Answer 6

it's been that way since Alley McBeal first saw that dancing baby. It seems to be stumbling in some areas, while flat-lining in other (read: Kate Bosworth).

Big shout out to Kate (both of them) and Lindsay for showing us that eating disorders don't just make you skinny; they make you look disgusting!!!

peace out!

Answer 7

i honestly think so. from mary-kate, kate bosworth, nicole, hilary, and others they've all lost so much weight. there are the exceptions of those celebrities who have actually gained weight. the skinny thing is really getting ridiculous.

Answer 8

oh, do you mean in comparrison to that time when they were all packing on the weight? face it, a womans image has always been a problem, those poor women are put under a microscope. i know they are rich and envied but i still feel bad for them.

Answer 9

these days??? try the last 20 years!!! all the ads and celebrities and men tell us that we are not perfect! people do not walk around the street looking like crack fiends, but the media keeps telling us we should! no wonder chicks go bulimic and anorexic!

grrrrr!

Answer 10

It's frightening to look at these women. You can see every vein pop in their neck and forehead when they speak. Their skin looks so transparent and their arms look like skin over bones with no muscle.

Answer 11

yeah they think it's the only way they'll get a job but it's not healthy and it's not a good influence on teenagers that want to look like them
