• 18. I think these pics are a horrible attack on beautiful people! Its really not any photogs business what someone else looks like. If they're so "ugly" why are you taking pics of them? I guess you dont mind being mindless rag sheet photographers instead of actual photographic artists! Anyone who gets some kind of thrill by taking or looking at pics of people, (anyone) taken at horrible angles, bad lighting, while eating, rushing somewhere or taken at exactly the one bad second that we all have from time to time has more problems that an "overweight" person will ever have!

• 20. Whoever put this site up should get a life or a mirror. I think all these people look human and beautiful in their own natural way. Nobody is perfect, and what really matters in life is so much more than what perfect image some ignorant people in society think we should have. After hosting a cancer survivor dinner the other night, and seeing so many children survivors there, including a precious, beautiful five year old little girl bald as can be from chemotherapy, never made me feel, as a survivor myself, so blessed that I have my hair back and I'm still alive. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. It sickens me to sometimes read these crazy articles because somebody has nothing better to do than put other people down, or to try and make a quick buck? Shame on you!

If people only like you becauase your a twig ..do you really need them??I love how these shots are taken @ awful angles and light to show them worse as possible ...Nobody is PERFECT and never will be...Remember karen carpenter?, All because some S**tHead said she looked fat on TV .. she wasted away to nothing taking laxatives and it finally killed her.. all because of one comment ..It is terrible what one thing said out of your mouth can detroy a persons life... she was a beautiful and talented lady .. but she let the public get to her...my guess... the people taking these pixs..weight 300 lbs LOL! So there ya have it ...

• 23. While I think this is mean to post these kind of pictures, I do think that Mrs. Brosnan should NOT be wearing a bikini. And Renaissance painters DID love to capture the larger woman, but NOT a woman with a body like that. That is not beauty...even to the great painters. She needs to lose a lot of weight for health reasons if anything. Otherwise....leave these poor people alone and let them age with dignity.

• 24. People are saying that some of these people are "old" and therefore have a right to look like they do. These people are not old, 80 may be a little old, but certainly anyone under 60 is not old. You do have a right to be fat or too skinny or just plain unsightly, but please have enough respect for other humans that have to look at you. And have a little respect for yourself. Hanging all your fat or flab or cellulite may be your right, but it is UGLY, and sometimes can make someone else gag. A bikini? They can even be unsightly on someone with who thinks they have a good fugure. Why in the world would one want to hang all that uglyness out for the world to see? Do they really think they are so important that they couldn't possible look disgusting to others? Years ago people had respect for themselves and would never appear in public letting themselves hang out of their clothing.

• 25. TMZ has no class. Shoul be ashamed of the awful photos they take. Go home & take awkward photos of your own family members & exploit them! See how good & how funny is it going to be then. Leave Kirsty Alley alone, she is not hurting anyone.

• 27. My problem with obesity in America is the fact that obese citizens are much more likely to have heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, etc., which means that all of us, heavy or slender, have to pay more for health insurance. It's the double and triple-wides that cause the higher premiums with all the extra weight.

• 28. SHAME ON YOU FOR POSTING THESE PICS. THIS IS WHY CHILDREN ARE STARVING THEMSELVES IN ORDER TO BE ACCEPTED. I THINK THIS IS A TRUE INVASION OF PRIVACY. SHAME, SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!

• 30. I think TMZ should be ashamed of themselves, I mean get real people, i bet everyone at your company has a flaw, yet its so easy to pick on other people, why dont you start fresh and try something new like reporting something meaningful, and stay out of other peoples lives and business, and vscations or downtime for that matter. I read the full story on valerie, and i am sick that you people dont know the rules in dieting, you have to be able to reward yourself evrery once in a while because if you dont you will never stick with a diet plan of any kind, and whats that i read about her wanting to start her own talk show... How many of you at TMZ can say you have the drive or backing to do the same, oh wait i forgot all you know how to do is follow celebs and hang out like star struck stalkers everywhere they go just to snap a photograph.
