National Enquirer cover Hollywood's deadliest diets

Last week’s National Enquirer has an article about Hollywood’s “deadliest diets”.

On the cover, there’s Janet Jackson (who dropped 72 pounds in a relatively short time), Britney Spears (”pills cause heart attack drama” - I haven’t heard about that story yet), Tara Reid (who was supposedly secretly hospitalized), Jodie Foster (whose “sudden weight loss” might not be as dramatic as they make it sound) and Beth Ditto (the “guess who?” on the left, who apparently eats a whole bucket of fried chicken and two cartons of ice cream for dinner).

I’m not sure how true these stories (and how real the photos) are, but I agree that eating too little (or too much) can be very dangerous, and even deadly in some cases.

Keira Knightley wants to look like Beth Ditto

skinny keira knightley wants to look like obese beth dittothis woman is keira knightley's body role model

Now this is something weird/funny/hypocritical/gross/disturbing (depending on how you look at it). I am quoting the article exactly as it appeared in the Metro:

Super skinny Hollywood star Keira Knightley says she would prefer to look like Beth Ditto than an anorexic.

The actress said she has tried to put on weight after being labelled a role model for anorexics and added the chunky Gossip lead singer is ’so sexy’ and has the ‘most amazing body’.

Miss Knightley said she was devastated when 19-year-old Sophie Mazurek died of anorexia and her mother blamed celebrities citing an image of Miss Knightley looking particularly thin after filming Pirates of the Caribbean.

The image was also used by pro-anorexia websites. She said: ‘I went to the doctor to be checked out and asked him what I could do to put on weight. He told me that for someone of my body type to get to a size 12, I would have to eat a lot of shit food, stop exercising and drink loads.

‘Basically, my body type is naturally thin. There is nothing I can do about it.’

Talking about seeing Ditto at a Gossip gig she told Elle magazine: ‘When she was performing she started taking all her clothes off. I stood there watching her strip, thinking, ‘Oh my God, that woman is so sexy.’

I say this is bullshit. Why couldn’t she pick a normal-sized and HEALTHY woman as a body role model? I think it’s funny how all these very skinny celebrities (first it was Kate Moss, and now Keira Knightley) seem to be fascinated by this morbidly obese woman, who is clearly not healthy.

Feel free to express your opinions about Keira’s statements in the comments section.

I am also posting some more pictures of Beth Ditto. Beware, they may disturb you! (And no, I don’t have anything against her because she’s overweight, but I have everything against her because she is ugly and ridiculous.)
