Re: ay caramba! scary skinny

  • ohhh- that's gross skinny!  I didn't watch the video but just from the photo that pops up you can tell.  Look at the reflection of her leg in the mirror!  yikes!  ... off to eat a cupcake in her honor...

  • She looks skinnier than some of the runway/fashion models I work with if that tells you anything... I wouldn't say scary though.  But then I probably have a skewed view of the female body from doing what I do...

  • She is pretty skinny, but I hesitate to call anyone scary skinny because I have lived my whole life with, "Ugh, EAT A SANDWICH" comments from complete strangers. She might have an eating disorder or that might just be her natural size, but either way I don't want to make judgments on her figure.

    (please read: not saying that in a snarky way to the OP or any other responder, just my personal opinion on the matter)

  • if you actually do watch the video, around 1:18, she turns to the side with her arms up, and i just feel bad for her.  to me, she looks like something's wrong.  not naturally skinny.

  • I hope she's healthier than she appears.  I can see where some people are unfairly judged, though.
  • All I see is a video of a sushi place? Which makes me wish I could eat sushi! Or at least that there was some food in my house ...
  • I doesn't appear to me that she is scary skinny.  I have been told to "eat a cheeseburger" my entire life as well and believe me, I do.  Some people just have genetics and a high metabolism that keeps excess weight off.  If a person who is prone to be skinny, works out/exercises/eat wells then she typically won't have any extra body fat.  Not to say that the girl in the video does any of those, but I wouldn't judge her based on what you see in a video.
