Is Taylor Momsen too skinny?
Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen has recently alarmed some fans with her thin figure, but she says she doesn’t feel pressure to be skinny.
The 5′ 8″ actress, who plays Jenny Humphrey in the hit TV show, said she didn’t even workout, blaming it all on her good genes.
“I’m just kind of naturally thin,” 15-year-old Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen explained to Us Weekly. “My mom’s really thin, and I’m tall. Good genes.”
The 5 foot 8 inch star credits a healthy diet and exercise for keeping her trim, pointing out that she walks a lot in New York City where she lives.
“I just eat healthy. I walk a lot because I live in New York,” she said. “So I try to walk a lot instead of taking cabs.
“I should probably start working out or something,” she added. “I dance, so I guess that’s a full workout. I’ve been dancing since I was three, so I guess that would be it.” [Source]

Not only is she WAY too skinny, the results thus far of your poll show how people do not have a healthy view of a woman’s body.

[...] lot of people have voted in my poll regarding Taylor’s weight and it appears the opinions are mixed. Half of you think it’s natural to be so skinny at her [...]

She is skinny naturally. HOWEVER, she is NOT that skinny naturally. She lost aroung 20 pounds since the beginning of the year. She’s now around 100 pounds.
Why? Not because she have good genes. It’s because she is modelling now. That’s the only reason. She may or not have an eating disorder, BUT she is surely eating less and making big efforts to maintain this weight. The agency probably wanted her to be skinnier (around 100 pounds is good for agencies - 120 for a 5′8” is too much)

I think she looks a lot more skinnier, than she did when she started out in gossip girl, if you watch throughout the season she started to get thinner. . =S

You guys are so lame. I was 96 pounds my freshman year of highschool, and around 88 in 7th grade.
I ate whatever and whenever I wanted, and I didn’t throw up or do drugs or take anything to get rid of it.
She is the same way. Big deal.
She’ll fill out once she gets older.

I have a similar body type to her and i get shit from f*ck bags all the time. Oh My GODNESS! PEople really can be naturally skinny! Hey america, you’re population consists of lazy scumf*cks who waste their time thinking about some Gossip Girl’s body weight. And Now I am wasting my time. Cheerio! And Damn, don’t you guys wish you looked half as good as her?
