Ashlee Simpson Defends Curvy Jessica

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Television, Rants

In a recent interview, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz shot back at the media for commenting on her sister’s weight.

“My sister has an incredible body. I feel sorry for anyone who would judge her, because she’s one sexy lady. It’s disgusting that people would say those things.”

Ashlee, who landed the cover of this month’s Women’s Health magazine, also added that she cannot wait to gain the pounds: “There’s gonna be a time when I’m way curvier, and that’ll be sexy too. What defines sexy is not someone’s weight. Personally I like curves. ... I wanna look good [for me]. I wanna feel good.”

The weighty backlash from Ashlee comes shortly after Jessica wrote an angry post on her Twitter regarding her sister’s swift departure from her show Melrose Place.

Those Simpson sisters sure do know how to get each others’ backs.

Sharon Stone Physically Challenged by Casino Role

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies

Sharon Stone nearly starved to death while making Casino. The actress didn’t eat for a week before filming a crucial scene because she was so desperate to impress director Martin Scorsese by looking “skinny and out of it.”

Sharon recalled prepping for her Oscar-nominated role for an interview with Prestige magazine:

“I nearly actually physically killed myself making Casino. We did the death scene on the last day because Scorsese knew I wanted to get just so completely skinny and out of it. In the final week I didn’t eat, I didn’t do anything, I just made myself a complete wreck so that I could get skinny, skinny, skinny, skinny and down to nothing. I lost so much weight.”

Was Mischa Barton’s Cellulite a Photoshop Creation?

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Photos, Oops Photos

You know - I would have been perfectly willing to come to this poor girl’s defense.  I mean, who doesn’t have cellulite?  And for the first time in quite some time, Mischa Barton looks like a normal woman!  (Okay, maybe except for that headband get-up.)  But when the actress’ rep claimed the Daily Mail pics weren’t real, I had to laugh. 

Lisa Perkins told the NY Daily News, “Those photos are doctored.  I’m not saying she’s perfect, nobody is. But they’ve given a 22-year-old woman the legs and bottom of an 80-year-old.”
