Sophia, I remember reading an interview with Claire Danes about a year after the cancellation of MSCL in which the interviewer admired her rail-thinness and asked her how she did it. She rolled her eyes forever, then sighed and said that of
course
she was starving herself, that everyone she knew starved themselves and ate the bare minimum because they were all teenagers and wanted to do nothing but eat like horses, but their managers and agents howled at them if they did, so instead they'd all sit around for hours after auditions talking about all the different foods they'd be eating if it weren't for their fucking careers.
It was a sad interview. She sounded extremely bitter about what she was missing out on, and aware that this was all unhealthy, but also completely resigned to the fact that if she gave in and ate like a human being she'd be unemployable.
ION,
Dude, you are turning into Andy Rooney before my eyes.
reminds me of one of the funniest things
Spy
ever did, a short quiz entitled "Rooney or Seinfeld?" with about a dozen unattributed "Didja ever wonder..." Bemused Every Whiny Man quotes from either AR or Jerry Seinfeld, and it was
completely impossible
to tell whose was whose.
Dana: Not a cop. Telemarketing liar trolling for idiots.
Hmm. But he didn't want a credit card number or anything. There was talk of sending an invoice.
Not that it matters, since we don't give money over the phone. But man, regardless of who it was, hanging up on a prospect just makes it way less likely that they'll get something out of me if they ever call again.
I think losing the baby fat mostly just thins the face.
Sue, I just saw the
Daily Show.
I didn't realize your tagline was serious.
When I lost the babyfat, I had collarbones and hips and a waist as well as the thinner face. Then I gained it back, but still had the hips and the jaw (even though it is round to begin with.) It redistributes weirdly.
Rachel Bilson lost too much damn weight, is what happened to Summer's breasts. Sadly. At least she stopped before she became skeletal.
Also, re OC: Does anyone think the Theresa mention means there's some chance they'll actually remember and wrap up that storyline this season, or will they just have Theresa show up with a toddler in two years?
Who does Kim De-whoever play on The OC? Alex?
Seriously, is it just the natural growing up and losing baby fat process that leads all these girls to be so nice and lush in the first season of shows, and then become really straight up and down (Buffy, Jen on dawson's creek,even Faith/Eliza Dushku)
Except in S7 of BTVS, Eliza was really lush and yummy.
Is anyone else watching the Happy Days reunion show?
JZ: I remember that interview, too.
The thing is: The 19 thing. All these TV goils get the big boost when they are nineteen. Every woman on the planet has an extreme fineness of the bod when she is 19.
Male Buffistas: Calling for a cross-check, here.
It is around drinking age, when you start to see the real woman emerge. So, if she is 30+ and got the tits you are looking for, glom on.
To the girl. Get your mind out of the gutter.
