She's clearly very underweight. When your thighs are as thin as your calves, that's a problem. That picture is upsetting to look at.

FabIsDoingPrettyWell · 12/03/2010 17:23

She was so lovely before. She just looks awful now. Yet another skinny person to influence the younger girls.

My 6 year old likes weighing herself - though she has no idea what it means - but I have told her she can't do it every day as I don't want it becoming an issue. My 8 year old who weighs 4 stone has said he was fat. Where do they get this from?

bibbitybobbityhat · 12/03/2010 17:28

She looks like she's about to die.

MaMight · 12/03/2010 17:35

Oh how sad.

Wasn't she the one with the great legs?

Isn't it frightening to think of our daughters looking up to these popstars, only to see them lauded for trashing their bodies?

UnquietDad · 12/03/2010 17:36

So everyone who is stick-thin is automatically "anorexic" rather than just "not eating sensibly"?

She does not look more stylish. She looks like she might snap

UnquietDad · 12/03/2010 17:49

It's absolutely true - nobody can blame men for imposing some patriarchal ideal of how women are supposed to look on these women, and cite this as being the reason they starve themselves, because:

MOST MEN DON'T FANCY STICKS.

We like curvy women. Like Kimberley.

At last, something which is not our fault...

CirrhosisByTheSea · 12/03/2010 17:51

she looks more stylish? That is some weird relationship with reality you have there, brahms! She looks desperately ill when compared with her previous look. She completely clearly has an eating disorder poor girl. I bet there are people around her telling her she looks 'more stylish' too, sadly for her mental and physical well being.

AccioPinotGrigio · 12/03/2010 17:52

She is currently living in LA - 'nuff said. Poor woman.

cyb · 12/03/2010 17:53

The jacket is hanging off her, her bony malnourished wrists are poking out and her fragile legs look awful. That is not stylish.

She has a physique like a catwalk model now though, doesn;t she? Perhaps thats what she was aspiring to look like (posh?)

She could do with putting on maybe a stone I guess. But she dresses a lot better than she used to.

This was six months ago and she looks a lot better here than she does in any of the pictures in the OP

Yes but have you seen the battering men get if they admit they find, e.g. Keira Knightley attractive. Voicing the opinion that a size 14 is not as hot as an 8 in female company ain't worth your life...

UnquietDad · 12/03/2010 18:03

But finding Keira Knightley attractive doesn't necessarily mean you like sticks or that any size is "better" than another. I think her face is very pretty.

UnquietDad · 12/03/2010 18:05

It's not so much being hardwired to find someone who can nourish a newborn attractive - I don't want Kimberley Walsh to bear me any children, thanks. It's more a case of having something to hang on to. And not feeling like you are poking a pile of broken chairs.

ShowOfHands · 12/03/2010 18:10

I don't give a flying rat's ass about stylish. Clothes you take off at the end of the day. Health and positive body image are there to the core. She's such a beautiful girl, she looks very underweight indeed.

Who cares if she is more stylish. She's too thin, I've read before she battles with her weight. Hope she gets some decent support to help her get back to a healthy weight.

ShadeofViolet · 12/03/2010 18:20

YANBU - She started going downhill when she moved to the US and had a relationship with Jessie Metcalfe. She needs to come home now!

oldenglishspangles · 12/03/2010 19:48

stylish - she looks ill and very much like she needs help and most importantly a new manager

BuryNoelEdmonds · 12/03/2010 19:52

It's known she's swapped one eating disorder for another, sadly.

BrahmsThirdRacket · 12/03/2010 20:25

Presumably she is an adult and is making her own choices about how much she eats. Hopefully she will sack off the dieting some (but not wear the horrible clothes she wore before, ahem)

southeastastra · 12/03/2010 20:26

some gay old twat who is probably supposedly a 'stylist' probably told her to lose weight.
