90210 Stars: Too Thin For TV?

90210 Stars: Too Thin For TV?

Two of the stars of the new 90210 take the latest cover of Us Weekly.

The mag claims that two of the show’s lead actresses, Shenae Grimes (left) and Jessica Stroup (right), are too thin for TV. Shenae (est. 90 lbs) and Jessica (est. 100 lbs) have reportedly been ordered to gain weight and their costars are planning an intervention since some of them have “never seen them eat”.

Entertainment Weekly also poses a very, very similar question in one of their latest articles: “Are the skinny starlets of 90210 setting a bad example?”

One casting agent who works frequently with The CW reveals to the mag, “I know in discussions at ABC and CBS that ‘too skinny’ is no good. They talk about it as a minus point. But at The CW it’s a different story. They’re trying to pull in the Gossip Girl audience and that’s the image: hyper-skinny models.”

WHAT DO YOU THINK of the 90210 starlets — TOO THIN or JUST RIGHT?

The GG girls aren’t skinny. These 2 on the other hand…-_-

Hollywood can’t seem to up make it mind. As the article at some studios these two girls are too thin but at some studios they are perfect.

When I was about 20, my weight dropped to around 110 lbs. I am 5′4″. My mother became very concerned about me as she indicated that I was too thin and needed to eat. This from a woman that has harped on me most of my life about my weight. Yes, they should not be allowed on the show until they gain weight. They look sick.

They are way too thin, the look of the actors on this show is really sending the wrong message, I watched the first episode and that was it. They can’t even read their lines well, everything looks so ridiculous.
The GG girls ARE skinny, but don’t look sick. I mean, have you seen Blake Lively’s legs anyone?!
The girls on that cover are walking on toothpicks

They look amazing.

30- ur disgusting. they dont look amazinfg! its pretty clear the one with dark hair has an eating disorder. im natuarlly thin and I have a blake
lively type figure. these girls are NOT naturally this way. its pretty obvious

They look way to skinny. Not only is it a bad influence to young teenagers, but, c’mon, does that look like a healthy weight? They definately need an intervention before they wither away. My goodness…it is just sick.

def. 2 skinny
blake and leighton are skinny, but pretty
these 2 are just wayyy 2 skinny, it cant be healthy!

defenitely to thin!

i love series that’s all xD

anorexic?????? omg! I think they chose the whorest girls of the USA.

they need to gain some weight, hopefully they’ll do it the healthy way. like good food, exercise and positive encouragement.

that girl in the orange is pin thin! EAT something! i don’t even watch that show. the CW or WB is not the same anymore. i can’t even tune in to that channel.

The other chick looks anorexic. Sad.

these bulimic b!tches cant even act.

They look great. I’m sick of seeing disgusting fat people everywhere I go. If more girls looked like them I would be a lot happier. Yep I’m shallow, and I could care less.

Why is it their fault if stupid girls want to emulate what they see on tv. Get some self-esteem.

leighton meester is skiny but she looks healthy, blake lively is normal size and shenae and jessica are way too skniny…it looks gross!!!….but jessica’s face is ******* gorgeous!!!…

They look sick and gross. They’re supposed to be the hot girls on the show and I wouldn’t touch them with someone else’s… well, you get what I’m sayin’

WAY too thin. It rewards destructive behaviour, and set an unattainable (and really, undesirable) standard for other teen girls who are too worried about optics and not worried enough about what is real and healthy.

shenae looks like shes just tinyyy but the other girl looks like she rly starving herself. u cud tell when someone is naturally rly skinny compared to someone who is aneroxic ..well at least i cud…

I agree, way too skinny and probably anorexic. Sad, I hope the “intervention” helps.

thank you im glad they realized these chicks are waay too thin. Its a disgusting image for young girls

DEFINITELY TOO SKINNY!!! EWWW Go eat some food! pleaseeeeeeeeeee

I think these girls look HOT! We have an obesity epidemic in the US, and I’m tired seeing fat young women! These girls are good examples for EVERY young woman!
