Thin, but non-anorexic actresses do exist

Maybe some of you out there in blogging land can help me out. A friend and I were having a conversation about the state of actresses in Hollywood and such. We both agreed that we're fans of curves, as most guys are. However, we got on the topic of actresses that are too skinny. The issue is, as much as people defend actresses that put on a pound or two and chastise those that lose 20 lbs in a week, we totally forget those that are naturally thin. This caused us to rack our brains. What actress can you think of that is naturally thin and not anorexic?

There were only 2 1/2 that we came up with.

Cameron Diaz


Not really sure how naturally thin she is, but she was a surfer girl back in the day, so that may be a reason, but as you can see she's very thin, but no bones sticking out and she's far from being anorexic.

Stacy Kiebler



Legs for days! She was in WCW and WWF(E), competed in Dancing With the Stars, now she's an actress, but before all that she was a dancer and model. Like Cameron, she's thin, but not anorexically thin.

Bet you read earlier and saw the 1/2, right? Well, its debatable about Kierra Knightley.



She says she's naturally thin, and she very well may be, but she seems to be shrinking with each role she takes on. Just look at the three Pirates of the Caribbean movies. She's noticeably thinner in the third installment, then she was in the first. So, it's a toss up on this one, whether she's a healthy thin, or borderline anorexic. Mayhaps its a mix of both?

Other noticeably thin, non-anorexic actresses that I just thought of, Anne Hathaway, Kate Beckinsale, Diane Lane, Eva Longoria,Debra Messing, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Sarah Jessica Parker, Uma Thurman, and Gwenth Paltrow. These are all women that are thin...although Anne hasn't always been as thin as she is now.

Guess what I'm trying to say is that we forget that each woman's body is different and that we can't just assume they're anorexic because they're thin!

Don't you agree?
