Zooey Deschanel Says Many Stars Are Too Skinny

Zooey Deschanel on Weight in Hollywood

When you look at some of Hollywood’s stars today do you think they are too thin? I know I do. I think please eat a hamburger or something. Where are your families?

Well, actress Zooey Deschanel tells Glamour magazine she doesn’t feel the pressure to be a certain size in Hollywood, but does think many stars are too skinny.

Thank you Zooey.

“Actresses have definitely gotten thinner over the course of my lifetime . . . There are a lot of actresses who are unhealthy-skinny — much, much too skinny. You can’t Pilates to that,” she explains. “I’m a very small person, and if I lost 15 pounds, I’d look like them; it’s scary. For young girls, what does that say? You need to look this way to be successful? That’s not true. You do not need to look or be anorexic to be successful in Hollywood. The range of what’s acceptable is larger than what people believe.”

This is very true. It’s ok to be who you are but it’s not like Zooey is overweight. Many people struggle with weight and to see what is going on in the media is quite disgusting. TV, Magazines, Movies and the Music industry all say they want it to change but yet everyone picks on the people that are overweight. How do we change that?

Zooey has the right idea it’s just more people need to jump on the wagon.
