Skinny Celebrities

"and yes.. i know that was very mean.. but you've all forced it
out of me..."


Forced it OUT of you? Are you not responsible for your own comments? Incapable of restraint?

Interesting....

Well, getting back to your original post and back to Sarah Jessica Parker...she actually does "fess up". I read a few years back that she said that 1) the Hollywood ideal is unrealistic for most women, because most women can NOT afford the time or money for a personal yoga instructor for 2 hours a day and 2) many women don't naturally ahve that kind of figure, and she is lucky that she does. So, she basically says that for her it is BOTH hard work and genes. I can definitely see how at other interviews a comment that "she is naturally thin" can be construed to mean that she is claiming she doesn't work hard at staying in good shape, although she has definitely expressed that she does.
 
i'm so upset! how can they cast a blond as daisy?!?!?! lol, ok so i'm a hardcore dukes fan....gimme a break! :)

jessica simpson's transformation is amazing, she looks good, and healthy! the strangest thing with her is that when her record label first said she needed to lose weight, she was already under a 100 pounds (so i've read).

I read that Jessica started at 128 lbs.And she thought she was to heavy so she slimmed down to 110-115 lbs(can't remember which)She is the same height as me and I can't imagine being that small.We must have different bone structure or something.She doesn't look to thin though.I think these people look a lot smaller in person.
 
See, everyone, this is what I mean about different strokes for different folks. I find this thread extremely offensive. It's chick bashing at it's worst. Just read through the threads. It's awful. Much worse than a dirty joke because you are bashing real people here.

IMHO and in all due respect, several of the people that have posted here are the same ones thanking Cathe for "cleaning up the sight". Don't you think this is a bit hypocritcal. This is not sex, it's not drugs or rock and roll but do you want a child reading it??? Cathe asked us to be respectful of one another. This is one of the worst threads I've ever read but it stays alive and well.

I JUST DON'T GET IT x( (saying in frustration and banging my head against my desk).
 
Poor Cedie!

Cedie is beautiful -- and she is voluptous -- I have male friends who think she is a major BABE in Hardcore and that the rest look too ripped and mannish!

I am a size 2 to 4 to 6 -- it all depends upon the manufacturer. It's vanity sizing. I bet in the 1980's I was an 8 to 10.

I am 5'1" and when my weight drops below 120, people think I am tweaking or have some wasting disease! My body type is made to carry a lot of weight -- especially in my quads. I can deal with it.

Two years ago I was under a lot of stress and my weight dropped to 116.

My doctor asked me if I had an eating disorder or a drug problem -- she said if I lost any more weight, she was going to become very concerned and refer me to a psychiatrist.

My face looked terrible and cruel FALSE rumors spread that I was on cocaine or meth. Since both my parents were drug addicts who died young, I saw first hand what drugs do to people. Therefore, I "rebelled" by being illegal drug and alcohol free.

I was going through some serious personal traumas that made me unable to hold down food when I had an appetite at all. I literally forgot to eat! It is hard to eat when somebody you love dearly has a fatal illness!

I am happy with the way I look now -- for the most part. I mean, when I look at other 50 year old people in the general population, I feel darned PROUD! I know women who are size 16 who would KILL to be a size 10.

I never believe everything I read about anything. That includes academic journals. I used to work in academic research as a peon and watched head researchers LIE about their data to publish in a "publish or perish" environment.

Sorry....I am way off base here -- time to Work Out!

HMMMM! "Low Max" is calling my name!

As a side note, Europeans (esp. Italians, Germans, and people from the nordic countries) have an entirely different standard of beauty from Americans. I know this for a fact...
 
I know what you mean. My ex best girlfriend used to be really cruel to overweight people! She would cover her mouth with her hand and whisper to me that "She is so FAT, but her boyfriend gave her $300,000 as a wedding gift when they married).

It was like saying overweight people don't deserve happiness or joy -- some people really struggle with their weight due to illness or bad genes or like me -- MENOPAUSE.

She kept on and on losing weight, but out of her clothes she was very flabby and her triceps blew in the wind. The reason I know is because she was obsessed about finding the perfect bra and drug me to store after store to try on bras. I brought bras back and forth to her like a lackey!

Skinny is not always toned....people who look great in clothes look horrble out of clothes because as they age they have not thought to work out.

But when my "friend" went from a size 12 to a size 3 she got self righteous and I could not bear to be with her any more....we would have dinner out every week and I got sick of hearing her pronounce loudly to the entire store or restaurant "I've lost more weight....!"

Oh, and she always made fun of the way I dress -- I love hats and the old fashion stockings and wear them a lot. I turned 50 on October 2nd and after half a century, I'm entitled to dress a bit on the eccentric side!

Amy,
You replied to a post of mine above about my friend? Anyway...is that you in the pitcure below? Did you say you were 50!? If this is you in the picture and you are 50 you look great! You don't look a day over 30! The calves aren't to shabby either!

That sounds like a pretty sensible attitude to have, and I respect Sarah Jessica Parker for saying it. I think it's hard for celebrities, because someone will criticize them no matter how they look. It's part of their job to look a certain way, and they pretty much have to do whatever it takes to look that way, and then they get criticized for it or for doing/not doing whatever to achieve it! I think that's why they might not tell the truth sometimes about their training and diets. I'm not sure it's anyone else's business, either. If people asked me those questions and wrote about it in magazines I might tell them to buzz off the next time. Attitude is probably one of the reasons I'm not a celebrity. ;-)

It is about 5 posts above and she is very cute and has awseome looking calves! 50??? No way!!
 
Hi Lori,

Yes, that is really me in the photo -- it was taken about 3 weeks ago -- we actually had a nice day here in Northeast Tennessee. A lady in Florida designs hats for me and I took that photo to send to her -- she is such a doll!

I am a hat fanatic -- I wear them quite often -- but I did not join the Red Hat Society when I turned 50 on October 2nd!

I like clip on hair too - I saw where Cathe posted she used it in the videos! Clip on hair and also the "Fun Buns" are great for bad hair days!

Cathe's hair looks really cute in the clip ons.

I have a lot of formal dance training, but Cathe's hardcore is KILLING my calves! When she goes from zip zags and all that jumping to calf raises on the short step, I can't get through all the reps. My calves literally get to complete failure. How do they all do that?
 
I've never had a suntan.

I have never smoked.

I have never used illegal drugs.

I try to eat well, but am not a "clean eater" -- I enjoy my dinners out with my husband and/or my 22 year old daughter

But most of all I WORK OUT WITH CATHE!

Cathe Friedrich has made such a positive impact upon my life -- I have been so depressed I thought my world was crumbling for one reason or another and instead of sitting around feeling sorry for myself and crying, I would do a Cathe workout instead!

Cathe is a ray of sunshine and I just love her workouts!

I just wonder what she has planned for us next.....
 
You can look at SJP body and automatically know she works hard. She is so graceful & lithe. She has a very beautiful, well toned body. Like a dancer. So hope no one thought I was slamming her. SATC was one of my favorite shows.

Amy's picture is still posted. Just do a search on this thread for AmySteppe. You'll see it! Yes, she looks awesome! :)
