Nikki Blonsky Makes the “A-List”
Hairspray star Nikki Blonsky blows kisses into the audience as she models on stage during Bravo’s First “A-List Awards” show on Wednesday at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
Unfortunately for Nikki, her entertainment managers filed a lawsuit against her for breach of contract.
According to Newsday, Blonsky, 20, and her mother, Karen Blonsky, reportedly did not cut Nikki’s firm into the money she earned her Hairspray role.

hideous and obese
Lisa, #95. NO ONE said ALL her fans are overweight. It’s sickening that all you people twist words around like you do. I said, I think her biggest supporters are overweight, because they want to see someone like them succeed!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO WHERE did I say ALL her fans are overweight.
I love Nikki and her talent, and I know she’ll actually be successful because of her talent. I’m just SICK TO DEATH of all the twisted fans who think she had anything with Efron and are delusional. It’s sick. Why is this delusion so important to you? It NEVER existed, and it’s just plain CREEPY to keep reading the, ‘oh, they had a mutual crush” crap. Those fans need a life.
Nikki is beautiful, talented, and yes, people, she IS overweight. But that does not mean we don’t like her or support her. And YES, I do think she is a role model for overweight young women everywhere!!!!!!
OMG Nikki Blonsky is grossly obese. She literally made me feel sick when looking at her in that dress, it is way to short, no one should have to see those grotesque legs. Nikki is a bad roll model for young girls, it is so unhealthy to be that fat and it should not be celebrated. She should be trying to encourage her fat fans to get healthy and not be like her. I don’t mean to be super skinny just healthy, Nikki could be using her celebrity profile for helping young girls to stop over eating junk food and get healthy. By doing that she would be doing herself and others a favour , no one can argue that being as obese as Nikki is good for you.
Although I don’t usually read a lot of comments, I love this site because it’s mostly fans and not haters. I love Nikki, I think she’s pretty, but she’s also talented and smart and a great person. She’s said she’s been insulted about her weight her whole life but that doesn’t make it okay, and I’m embarrassed for those of you for doing it.
what a tub of lard.
I wonder if Nikki will make the move to LA, as much of a New York girl as she is
For those of you who are posting all the comments about Nikki’s weight and the health risks, etc. I hope you’re going on threads for celebrities that smoke and post all the health concerns associated with smoking. Or the risks related to alcohol for those that drink. And the risks of automobile accidents for those that drive or ride in cars. And the risks of a place crash for those that fly in planes. Etc etc.
Yes, Nikki is overweight. However, it doesn’t affect my feelings towards her in terms of her talent, personality, reputation, or the work that she has done. Also, Nikki has lost weight since the fall. It is obvious to tell in her pictures in recent months. Unfortunately, this dress doesn’t show that. But it was made for her to wear, she didn’t design it herself.
Melinda, congratulations to you for losing weight. I’m sure it had an effect on your health. However, doctors agree that weight alone is not what determines health. Many people are overweight but are very fit. I’m sure that Nikki takes care of her health, and her doctor ensures that. Remember, also, that for Hairspray she danced for hours every day, so she must be fit.
Take a look at her photoshoot for “Harold”, where she’s wearing a great red dress. She looks amazing, and much slimmer than the early fall. I’m really proud of her for that accomplishment, but I would be proud of her no matter what because of her character and talent.
Anyway, these threads on Nikki always come around continuously to her weight, and it’s not that it doesn’t matter, but that it isn’t what her fans focus on. That is her business, and we like and respect her for who she is and what she does.
Just cause she can dance does not mean that she is in shape. High blood pressure comes from your heart having to push blood and work harder due to all of that extra weight. She is morbidly obease and that is very dangerous, also she should be concerned because other kids do look at her as a role model. What type of example is that, she is so young to be carrying around all of that weight. And for people who think that we should not dicuss her weight, you are wrong. Nikki even did an afterschool special where she was overweight and was trying to win a beauty pageant, and they talked about weight loss in the movie, etc. She is too large for her young age and she needs to loose weight, she has the money and resources to do so.
i think that it´s great to have famous people who look vulnerable and unperfect but she ISNT JUST FAT, SHE IS COMPLETLY OBESE. aND THAT PEOPLE, IS UNHEALTHY AND PROBLEMATIC. I SUPPORT THAT WE HAVE TO RESPECT EACH OTHER BUT I DONT THINK BEING OBESE IS A MERIT.Though this has nothing to do with her acting
I agree, plus sized is someone like Queen Latifah or that plus sized girl from High School Musical. Nikki is morbidly obease. Im surprised that Queen Latifah has not talked to her about Jenny Craig. I know Nikki said she looked up to Queen Latifah in the past.
Headband, you’re making progress! Two more words, wow! :-D :-D :-D
I’ll be watching your phylological career…
I’m going to say only one thing as regards Nikki’s weight and it comes from her herself:
“I have been told, ‘That’s great that you played Tracy. Now you should lose weight,’” says Blonsky, who is reading scripts and auditioning for roles. “I’m like, everyone is entitled to your opinion. It doesn’t mean I am going to use it.
“You have to live your life for yourself and create your own happiness at the end of the day,” she concludes. “If I wake up tomorrow and decide I want to lose 10 pounds because I want to, maybe I will. If I don’t, I won’t. But I don’t listen to Hollywood people when they say ‘Lose weight’ or, ‘Dye your hair.’ No. No, no, no! This is me, this is what you get. If you like it, great. If you don’t, okay. I will still be me, and I am still happy at the end of the day.”

End of.
I can’t wait to hear more about the tv/comedy deal she has in the works. Most Nikki fans know she’s experienced in improv so I’m guessing good times ahead whatever route the project takes :D
It’s great and all that she’s happy with herself but…she really shouldn’t be. I mean look at her. She’s disgusting. Utterly disgusting. It’s repulsive that somebody would let themselves get that big. But, I guess she didn’t really know anything else. I mean look at her parents, they are morbidly obese as well. Theoretically It is a great thing that she is confident in herself but realistically it’s terrible. If she wants to live a long and healthily life she has GOT to do something. And I can almost guarantee that she is not as happy with herself and she claims to be. It’s all for show. Nobody of that size could possibly be okay with themselves. I know that I wouldn’t be. Well, actually, that would never be an issue with me because I would never let myself look like that. Ever.
Jen, +1 No matter how talented Nikki is there always will be people who think they’re “not perfect but they’re far better than her” (quotation from above). It’s like “why do people like her and not me, I’m so much better”. Kindergarten level of hatred and primitive jealousy, that’s what I’d call it. What’s the use to explain then? Most of them don’t even read previous comments. Margaritas ante porcos…
As for the weight comments… Giving advice is everyone’s favourite sport :-) We always know what is better for the others. We are all great psychologists and teachers and doctors. Why does Nikki refuse to see that she is making this world far less perfect for at least ten people :-D ? So selfish of her :-D
And I wonder how many haters would post here if Nikki and Zac Efron didn’t know each other? Oh, this magic name! It’s like a red cloth for a fighting bull :-D C’mon ladies, the more comments the sooner we get another Nikki post!
Still no news on the show she has in the works. :/
I think she will rock in a scripted comedy show. And I know she was just joking but it would be pretty cool to see Ben Lyons, or others she is friends with or has worked with make appearances on her show. :D I just wish we knew more about it.
Irish, that is a wonderful quote from Nikki. And She actually had lost a lot of weight since her HS days, you can see it in her face. I think she looks beautiful either way. :D
I could come up with a million words to describe how ugly and fat and annoying and attention-seeking she is. But do you really think I’m gonna do it when two words will get it across perfectly fine?
Nikki is fabulous,she is beautiful,she wonderful,thanks JJ !!!!!!!!!
Right, Imo she has lost a lot of weight! if you notice it’s the style of dress, it is supposed to puff out…but if you look at the waistband you can tell she realy has lost so much weight, not that I didn’t love her in the first place. Now for being ugly how the flying duck could you call this girl ugly? insecuruty perhaps? don’t bring hate onto here it’s for fans who actually appreciate her for who she is not what your childish, jelous little heads want to imagine her as being like. This girl followed her dreams and made it buig whilst making a lot of celeb stars along the way including a certain Mr Efron who fyi is actually her best friend. She is a talented beautiful girl and has special quality, that being she doesnt care what people say about her she just lives life how she wants to and ignored the put downs. Your all just hating because tbh your probably all jelous of her, she’s amazing and the people who don’t see t are most likely in denial. So leave this place for positive comments please. Thankyou.
Headband you are annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!
Somebody knows which is the Mistery Man of Nikki ???
Yay Nikki looking fabulous as always in these new pics!!
So I’m guessing that I’m the only one who likes Nikki’s dress…I really do. I’m odd like that I guess. :D Thank you Jared for posting some more Nikki news. So…A TV show? Can Ben Lyons be her love interest!? I would so watch that! lol
# 139, I’m sensing some serious sarcasm…Am I correct? :D
I wasn’t going to address the haters, but I wouldnt be true to myself if I didn’t…You all need to fall back and shut the **** up! Especially you Headband. Do you honestly think Nikki gives two ***** about what you say about her? Um…No! You can bash her until you’re blue in the face, she’s still gonna do her thing whether you like it or not. :P
139) Zima your whole comment was awesome but i love this especially: “Why does Nikki refuse to see that she is making this world far less perfect for at least ten people :-D ? So selfish of her :-D” bwahahaha
She’s not here to decorate your world, people. Get over it.
First, some of you—and you will never admit to this—have a phobia and prejudice against people who are obese. That is proven fact. Many studies have been done on this. And as I have said in a previous post, be careful when you say “I would never allow myself to get that fat”. You don’t have a clue as to what may happen to you. It is a very dangerous thing to say “I will NEVER…” Most of the time it comes back to bite you in the butt.
BUT losing weight is not that easy for many reason. I would say most of you who are complaining about her weight and who do NOT have a wight problem have never experienced this kind of problem so you have no clue as to how hard it is. IF it was so easy to lose weight, nobody would be fat. IF it was so easy to stop taking drugs, nobody would be an addict, etc.
Think of Oprah. How MANY times has she lost weight? How MANY times has she gained it back? Do any of you know WHY? It is in her genes. Her body simply is use to that and it is how it responds. Ricky Lake, she has been fat and she has been skinny AND she has been fat AGAIN. Then there is Carny Wilson who was suffering medical problems because of her weight and had surgery. She lost a lot of weight BUT she was still not that small even at her smallest weight. AND what has been happening to her now? The weight is going back up. That is just the way it is with some people. You who are so judgmental may ought to look at your problem…
Also, I have never found it to be helpful to constantly tell people they need to lose weight. It never is helpful to tell someone there is something that is not perfect enough about them especially when it comes from someone who has never had the problem or who just wants to be insulting. I hope Nikki can do something in controlling the weight while she is young because it is a fact that as a person ages, they get heavier.
(#52) LOL
There is actually a size that is 1.
A lot of models are size 1s’.
So your just making an idiot out of yourself.
& like you said ppl can always catch when someone is lieing.
So i suggest that you stop lieing’ about you are supposedly a size 0.
when you are actually arn’t.
Yet, i weigh 110pounds & is at the age of 15.
I’m a size 1.
So (#56) stop making up lies.
It would make a big impact.
