“She’s got a big head and a skinny neck… and she’s not got humungous breasts and so they say she’s anorexic. She’s really not. I’ll vouch for her. I’ve felt every part of her in many scenes in Atonement and she is fine! There’s meat on those bones, I guarantee you.”
-James McAvoy (Co-Star in “Atonement”)

So if you’re not smiling 24/7 you’re depressed?
She certainly doesn’t look unhappy in this pictures taken yesterday:

Saying that she’s depressed without any proof except for a few photos where she looks pissed is a huge assumption to make. She’ probably just pissed at being followed by the paparazzi. But I agree with the critics that think she is way too skinny. She seems like the naturally skinny type but she was chubbier before. I think it just sucks that her size in Hollywood is considered the norm or ok. No wonder normal size 10-12 women feel like cows and really do end up being anorexic!

How can you say that she’s too skinny? (And I absolutely disagree that she was “chubbier” before. You can find pictures of her being this size at least since she did The Hole in 2000)
People come in all shapes and sizes. What is a healthy and natural weight for one person won’t be for many others.
If only society would embrace variety instead of trying to force one single “ideal” on everybody.
No one should feel pressure to be skinny if that’s not natural for them. But abusing skinny people for being what they are is just as bad.
Anorexia is a serious mental illness with complex, profound causes, and it often runs in families, probably because of some interaction of both genetic and environmental influences.
To hint that images of skinny celebs cause anorexia is like saying that sad songs cause suicide. The skinny celeb and the sad song are trivial and ephemeral while anorexia and suicide are the results of massively complex, lifelong, profound histories of suffering. Even if a sufferer were to level blame at the skinny celeb or the sad song, that reads like a desperate attempt to find a simple explanation for a complex problem.
A mom who blames her daughter’s anorexia on pictures of skinny women in the press similarly (and quite understandably given the vast suffering involved) seeks an easy answer to a profound problem. I can forgive such a mom. You do what you have to do to survive. But for the rest of us to believe such a simplistic link between pop culture and a terrifying mental illness is shallow, irresponsible thinking – the sort of shoddy thinking that tempts us to live shallow, irresponsible lives.

come on people. just bc she isnt smiling as someone takes her picture (prob w/o approval) does not mean she is depressed.
she looks a bit unhappy in this photo and she looks skinny as always but I dont know if all this means she’s depressed (and/or anorexic)
