Which for our dear Brad is saying A LOT!

While yes, this particular question was wholly inappropriate (literally why ask someone how much they weighed in a movie 35 years ago????) it seems to me that the issue isn’t about who gets asked most about body changes in regard to gaining or losing for a part. Actors and actresses will talk your ear off about how

Literally the only thing I remember about that movie is his hair.

Yeah, if she needs a coach, my rates are quite reasonable.

she is just like one of us

Couldn’t they just hire an actress who is already that size? I mean, Charlize is good, but like. I’m sure there’s tons of amazing actresses who never get roles because they are over size 4. (Apart from the amazing actresses who are starving themselves to stay skinny just to get/keep roles. Hire one of them and they

He’s so selfish* I bet the answer is no one.

Yes he believes it but so what? His belief is based on bullshit he could easily verify by reading up on it in the time it took him to make his “sincere” but totally stupid statement. In a world teeming with internet access and public libraries to enlighten Barden for free, there’s nothing endearing, admirable or even

I suspect just about everything helped that weight loss because I don’t care how much you starve yourself, absent gastric surgery and all kinds of plastic surgery, decades old fat and excess skin are not just shrinking away because of your will power.

Nah, he was always contemptuous of women. He lost all that weight after his remarks to the effect that designers shouldn’t offer plus sizes for because if heavier women wanted to wear couture they only had to slim down made him a laughingstock.( I even think a cereal company has an overweight Lagerfeld lookalike

The best villains always do.

I understand completely - I want a city hall wedding when the time comes and my mom gets really upset whenever I mention that. Still, I know compromise can be rough (or even impossible sometimes) and if you’ve got your heart set on a colorful dress then what can you do?

Those are so trashy.

YES. That’s exactly what bothers me so much about it, it is an attempt to appear fashionably casual (or casually fashionable?) but in reality is sooo high maintenance and not at all practical.

This should be a musical.

He should just send his clothing down the runways for his shows on actual plastic mannequins. Just put them on a conveyor belt and send them out. They could be as thin as he likes, faceless, and void of all personality which also seems to be a thing many designers like in runway models. In any case, all live models

I think that’s why fashion and beauty standards for women are so hard, and for some of us impossible, to achieve and maintain. The people who have set the standards from the beginning are largely men who truly despise women. I hope that starts to change at least a tiny bit.

Fashion does seem like a hands-on line of work. Obviously too hands-on for some people’s tastes. Crossing someone’s boundaries is never acceptable, but I can see how in the frenzy of a photo shoot or show everyone is so busy thinking about getting the look just right that they forget they’re tugging on and kneading a

He’s right though, if you don’t like the job, don’t be a model. There are plenty of good careers that don’t involve strangers manipulating your bust to look it’s most inviting, modeling is not amongst them.

“Isn’t anyone who’d murder the innocents she’d been looking after and loving for over two years insane by any measure?”
