I know you've seen the kerfuffle about Angelinas' leg. Joke, staged PR event, rare slip-up, call it what you will, her pose got all the attention at this years' Oscars, sparking a viral meme and this photo appeared almost immediately.
which kind of took the attention away from this:
Look at her arms.
She is almost skin and bone. Her elbow is the largest part of her whole arm.
I'll confess now, I have a girly crush on Ange. (only partly because of Tomb Raider)
I think she is honestly one of the most beautiful women alive, but this skeletal frame is ugly.
It looks unhealthy, physically and emotionally.
It sends the worst kind of body image to women and girls everywhere.
This is how she used to look
Was that not beautiful enough??? Do you have to look like a bundle of broomsticks to be acceptable in Hollywood?
While looking for an image of Angie Before, I found a story expressing concern at her figure. You can read it here.
I agree with all that you say ... but have a theory about how thin Ange has got ... its to do with running after all those kids!

Angie is beautiful, but by heck she needs a few of my Mum's Sunday roasts!
ReplyDeleteWith gravy. And dessert.
Why do women do this to themselves? Why? Why? Why?
I am with you on the girl crush on Angie and yes, there was no need for her to diet!
ReplyDeleteWhen one of the most beautiful women in our world feels insecure about her looks, it makes me question our society more strongly.
Excellent post.
