Penn Badgley to ‘90210′ Girls: Eat A Cheeseburger!
Gossip Girl hunk Penn Badgley heard that the blogosphere is abuzz about 90210’s skinny starlets and how they are too thin for TV.
The 21-year-old actor told Popeater that he’s “never been proponent of the thin L.A. girls” and is glad that the females on his hit CW show “aren’t bone-thin.” (He’s currently romancing his on-and-off-screen girlfriend Blake Lively.)
Penn had some advice for the girls of 90210 (also a CW show): “I hope they eat a double cheeseburger or something.”
Sounds like there’s a feud brewing between the casts of 90210 and Gossip Girl!

Penn Badgely usually sucks, but I agree with him: they’re horrifyingly skinny. Poor Jessica Stroup and AnnaLynne McCord….
It’s easy for him to say that but would he ever consider dating anyone who didn’t look like a supermodel?
Penn is right although he could have been a bit more diplomatic.
Blake and Leighton put those girls to shame, they’re beautiful and healthy.
Blake Lively and Leighton Meester are thin, but they do not look like the 90210 girls. They look healthy.
Taylor Momsen is a little scary skinny, but like others said, she’s only 15 so it’s possible she’s still just in the young awkward teenage body phase. The 90210 actresses are adults.
OMG SOMEONE Pleaseeeeeeeeee feed them
They are pretty darn thin.. but I think the girl that plays Silver is gorgeous and I love her characters style… yeahh she’s cool … skinny as hell but cool lol
K,
you ’sound’ fat-n-ugly.
.
zeggy,
stfu, if they nɛed to eat a cheeseburger, then they need to eat a cheɛseburger. why candy-coat it.. pʊssy!
.
Helena,
you stupid jīzz-filled-whorɛ. how you comparɛ a tweeny 15 y/o to adults. you should be beating by ā group of nʊt-sacks.
both shows suck but 90210 is worse i couldnt even make it through an episode….whats with all these attacks on skinny girls? would penn (is that his real name? why do his parents hate him?) make an annoucement that fat girls need to exercise? i doubt it…
number 3 ur a total idiot. Gossip Girl is still the highest rated show on the CW and the other night it pulled in the most viewers that she station has EVER had for any show. Since the premiere of 90210, its ratings have dropped by almost 2 million viewers. get your facts straight
Gossip girl is better and always will be. 90210 = Horrible acting, Fake, Disgusting fashion, and Two anorexics.
Gossip girl = Better actors, Hotter actors, HEALTHY actresses, AMAZING Style, and just way more popular. Sorry no one can top
a Best seller made into a tv show. Not even “americas favorite zip-cod that defines a generation”
Pfft.
@clara
LMAO.
Yes, you’re right. They are the highest, but highest meaning - the crappiest highest.
The ratings for such a highly, highly, highly promoted show are dreadful. Just because they’re at the top, doesn’t mean the top is outstanding numbers.
It just means the crap did better than the crappier.
#14, what the hell are you talking about? Taylor was never that thin. Rent Paranoid Park and see what I’m talking about. Nothing to do with growth.
I agree with him. It’s good that a man in hollywood is speaking out against it. Although, he should speak to Taylor because she is thinner than all 3 of them!
Yeah they need to eat more. It’s very scary, like is this the assumption that people who live in Beverly Hills are supposed to be stick thin people? Well the girls on GG are thin too, but not as skinny as 90210. I say they all eat some hamburgers and bulk up a little. haha
it’s true that the girls do need to eat, but he should not have said that. it’s rude. but they do look unhealthy.
not to be a b*tch or anything, but whoever says GG is the top rated show on the CW is completely wrong. Last year it was one of the lowest rated shows on the network. And the ratings it got Monday night weren’t the highest the network has ever gotten. 90210 premiered with almost 5 million, smallville one tree hill and americas next top model have all gotten over 4 million viewers numerous times, which is something GG has never even come close to doing.
He is f*cking rude, if this girl have anorexia, he should show some respect, it is a difficult and painfull desease, i can tell that.
wtf.. the girls of gg are not thin. blake and leighton are actually very healthy looking..
I like both Gossip Girl and 90210.But the 90210 girls do look skinny
So TRUE!!!
ugh sorry my comment double posted again
its great being skinny and those girls look amazing..
but dayummmm just EAT! your way tooo skinny..your not gonna b sooooo fat!
penn’s absolutely right. they are extremely skinny.GG girls are average girls, blake has a good healthy body.
i think they should eat 2 cheeseburgers
I hope now 90210 is such a success they can afford a cheeseburger. lol
no, but it is true though. I just watched the first episode of 90210 today because I heard it was really really really good. so i check it out, and the main female girl is extra thin. like, i really can’t believe they cast her. she’s a bad example for the me and my friends at school. but, the show is good though. and i can understand why penn is so upset. Gossip Girl is getting boring, and 90210 is on fire.
I can’t wait for watch the 2,3, and 4 episodes later!
Penn is so right! They need to eat!!
