...before all the weight loss, then she has since?

I don't get why she's so celebrated as a style icon for being skinny. She was lovely and had beautiful facial features in her early fame days

It worries me they they are presented as such successful types. 3 boys left private and expensive education and not a university degree in the offing. Her dress sense classy, her children not so much

I'm sure you wouldn't like people picking apart your appearance. It's a bitchy thread and reflects badly on you.

I think they were implying that comparing pictures from 20+ years ago is kind of pointless.

How about you post pics of yourself now and 20/30 years ago and we all judge whether you looked better then than you do now?

I don't think it's judging as you imply. It's an observation that's very valid re wider issues. Shes chosen to be a very public figure & style icon. Comes with the territory

She's been a stick for years. No idea if stories of her eating very little & the same foods for years are true but if so it's very sad. Life is there to enjoy
