152. Purpleman - I think you're sadly misinformed about what a size twelve means. The sizing of clothing has changed over the past several decades, so to put today's size twelve in perspective, Marilyn Monroe would be a size twelve today. Rita Hayworth would have been a 12, as would Jane Russell (although, *gasp*, she might have been a size 14!) Size twelve is actually a healthy size for women to be, speaking from a medical perspective. You know, for the majority of women, it's not good for them physically to be a size 0, 2, or even 4. The majority - and as you say, the average - of size twelve women are right in the middle of their prime weight. So quit judging, and quit propagating unhealthy attitudes toward women. Or else we women will have to start fighting back, and judging all men out there by the size of their anatomy, and I doubt you'd like that so much.
155. RMC,
You asked why they've articulated most "normal" people as "fat and unattractive". It's probably because most "average" (I agree that normal is the wrong word to be used) people in our country today ARE FAT and thusly, fairly unattractive. I find that as a general rule the "average" person today does NOT take care of themselves and does NOT care what they look like! You might be a size 4 (I happen to be a 0 and far smaller than most) but do some people watching the average American is NOT! Look around you and see how many people look dated, don't bother to take the time to style their hair or put a touch of makeup on in the morning and while being overweight, they don't even bother to wear clothing that suits their body type! As a country, we're a train wreck!
158. What a shame that you only use fat people and a midget...
This is why this countries young woman are obsessed with their weight and think that emaciated celebrities are the ideal.....
What a crook of crap...
These people are generally not HAPPY PEOPLE = that is why they are ending up in rehab, drunk driving convictions, suicides etc...
Give our young people someone to look up to that is worth looking up to.
Your photoshop nonsense is a waste of time and further promotes highlighting the wasted lives of celebrities.
159. its a shame that some people don't see beauty, i think that the picture of Jennifer Aniston, Kansas City accountant and mother of two was pretty, the look in her eyes was special as i am sure she is
160. WOW!!! It's a good thing we have these celebs to look at and admire because the rest of the world is starting to look like this....fat and disgusting. STOP eating junk people and exercise. You don't have to be a celebrity to not look like this...you just have to have some self control and respect for yourself and your body.
161. the only people who enjoy stupid pictures like these, are people who are jealous. get a life. not all normal people are fat. and by showing all these celebs that way proves my point. try as hard as you want to make them look the worst, but when it comes down to it they still have more money and fun then you.
164. Fabulous photoshopping...have an idea how you did this but, wow, know it took you a while! Going to get some celeb lypo when you're all done? ;-) People have been knocking that overweight=average...seriously, I thought these pics looked average & that was good because for most of the celebs that were shopped here, they are in need of more brekkie if you ask me!
165. so thats what a movie star would look like as a "average person" and if they didnt have millions to spend on a private excersize instructor and chefs. If I had that much money and time on my hands Id look like a plastic fantastic barbie too.
P.S. people need to lighten up and stop cutting so many people down on here. This is meant to be entertainment!

154. The AVERAGE (meaning mathematical average, folks) clothing size for women in America is a 12, so these are really not far fetched.
