• 76. Anybody with sense knowos that as we age, our matabolism slows down too. why fault someone who you've admired for being HUMAN? They are the same talented people; give 'em a break.

• 78. I ‘m so sick of the weight and looks issues. If the people are skinny, they get pounced on, if they are heavier, they get pounced on, if they age, they get pounced on. Try accepting people for who they are and not just what they look like. Sure, we can wish skinny and beautiful are the norm, but let’s face reality, it’s not.

• 79. ...why is William Hung on this list? He's not famous. At least Daniel Baldwin is kinda sorta famous, right?

• 81. Aretha Franklin needs to show her body a little respect!! When you are damn near obese you don't have to degrade yourself in the public by dressing like you don't know that you look like a whale. All that flab is not beautiful so cover it! Damn It! What has she become? The Queen of Flab? Respect yourself and others will respect you as well.

• 86. Vaughn D. Gale wrote, "As my momma told me ONLY A DOG WANTS A BONE!!!!!!" Nice. The further I read through these comments the more I see that none of your readers, or accidental readers seem to be happy with this repetitive theme TMZ. One needs to look at these photos you posted, the captions and the comments to understand how far off topic you are about entertainment news. I'm thrilled that your community of readers and accidental readers all seem to feel the same about your own obsessive-compulsive need to use "fat" as a weapon. It's clearly being turned in your direction. Looks like it's time to get ahead of the curve instead of clutching to the end of it. I'm so angry you use your space and advertizers to attack people who bring joy with their talents to the world. Sadly, Christy

• 88. Did you notice they all look happy? Have you noticed the tide has changed on having to be a slave to unreal and frankly, unhealthy guidelines mostly set out by an airbrushed fashion industry that wants people to be 'racks' so only their clothes show? What have you accomplised? What is it like to make a living making fun of those who have accomplished much and have entertained many people? Sad. What makes you the stone thrower. Why don't you post your picture very young and then 15 to 25 plus years later? You need to get a grip... that false world is falling away quickly and real people are emerging. Just consider the repsonses here. Remember, what goes around, comes around. Keep these replies and read them in 15 years as you stand naked in front of your mirror, mirror on the wall.

• 89. Janet has a history of going up and down. Unfortunately it is very unhealthy. I too hopes that she finds a healthy balance to maintain an average size. TMZ is ridiculous by taking pictures that are in some cases 20 years younger and comparing them to recent pictures. Give me a break, I bet there staff isn't all fit and trim.
