Celebs true weights
|
|

Hi all
I bought 'Now' magazine today and in it they had a 6 page artical called 'Celebs' true weights EXPOSED'. I thought it was quite interesting, they gave the heights and weights of a load of celebs and then I worked out their BMI from it. I was suprised to find that my BMI is lower than some of them, even though I swear I'm bigger - made me feel a lil' better  Anyways, my scanner isn't working so I'll post the celebs' and their stats:
Britney Spears
Height: 5' 4
Weight: 10st 1lb
BMI: 24.2
Victoria Beckham
Height:5' 6
Weight: 7st
BMI: 15.8
Fergie
Height: 5' 4
Weight: 9st 3lb
BMI: 22.1
Carol Vorderman
Height: 5' 6
Weight: 8st 9lb
BMI: 19.5
Catherine Zeta Jones
Height: 5' 7
Weight: 9st 3lb
BMI: 20.2
Jessica Alba
Height: 5' 7
Weight: 7st 2lb
BMI: 15.7
Tyra Banks
Height: 5' 10
Weight: 11st 5lb
BMI:22.8
Kate Moss
Height: 5' 7
Weight: 7st 7lb
BMI: 16.4
America Ferrera
Height: 5'
Weight: 10st 1lb
BMI:27.5
Kelly Osbourne
Height: 5' 1
Weight: 10st 7lb
BMI: 27.8
Beth Ditto
Height: 5' 1
Weight: 15st 2lb
BMI: 40.1
Coleen McLoughlin
Height: 5' 3
Weight: 9st 7lb
BMI: 23.6
Lily Allen
Height: 5' 6
Weight: 9st 9lb
BMI: 21.3
And that's it. Not totally thinspiration, but interesting

Are they the actual photos they used, cos most of them look a lot bigger than they are 'supposed' to be?
Maybe they paid the people off

The pic of Britney is the same pic they used in the artical. The others are different. I couldn't find the same ones. I tried picking pictures that closely resembled what weight they are now, but some were harder to find than others. The pics are more for reference anyways

sorry sweet, wasn't a criticism of you, just curious.
Hopes you'd say that, cos I think carol vordeman looks pretty wobbly there, and shes the same height as me and only a few pounds heavier, and jessica alba looks bigger than i would have expected at that weight
Hey ho, (BTW who is the whale lady?)

She's the lead singer of the band The Gossip - they sang "standing in the way of control", from the popular Skins show on E4 if you know it.
She's size 22 and "loving it"...

It's ok, I didn't mean for it to come across as though I was 'having a go' or anything
