Yes, you guessed it. A headline from the here Daily Hate.

So what is wrong with being 10 stone if you have the height and body type for it?

Since when did beauty equate to looking like a skeleton?

Hmmm she doesn't look 10 stone to me, a good size 14 I would say, just goes to show that they cannot print the truth if their lives depended on it.

Social and physical sciences? I think they mean political.

Did anyone spot the probably-out-of-context bitchy comment about Gail Trimble?

pmsl - I am 10 stone!

Kathy - it is possible to be 10 stone and a size 14 you know, specially if you are short.

I love the comments! Someone said "Let's be honest, she's a bit hefty. And it's only downhill from her age" what a twat!

Serioulsy why do you ALL read the Daily Mail if it pisses you off so much...and don't say you don't because it is referred to and referenced on here more than any other newspaper.

Kathy - her weight and size would have been given to the paper by the girl/agency copy nothing to do with them making stuff up.

the vitriol agains the mail on here purely for the sake of it is laughable.

I'm a journalist and i see it's faults but I also think it's amusing that a bunch of mums who clearly read it on a daily basis (whether online or not) - then try and act like it's some awful rag.

you're their target market - and they're clearly doing their job because you all read it and debate it. DM must get mentioned on here about 30 times a day

She has nice hair, doesn't she that girl?

Can't judge her figure too much lying down like that or in the loose dress but she has nice arms and legs and if she plays handball in the national squad she must be pretty fit.

Can't believe anyone thinks she looks overweight. Surely not?

I only read the Daliy Mail when someone links to it on here and it gives me an opportunity to point and laugh at how shit it is

That was my point she weighs more than 10 Stone or else the camera and angles are very unflattering.

much heavier?

Report
Nancy66 · 31/05/2009 13:00

it's perfectly possible that she's 10 stone -she's 5ft 5 which would make her bang on average BMI - not skinny, not overweight - exactly as she looks.

How does she look heavier than 10 stone???

I think some of you need to get your eyes tested.

Sadly getting into Cambridge is no guarantee of having a nice personality. I went there for four years and there were just as many silly bitches there as in the rest of life.
