These pics of Jessica Simpson were snapped last night after the singer enjoyed dinner out with the family at Katsuya. Jess looks slim and smokin’ and ready to rock in all that leather and denim. Perhaps the pop-songstress traded in her cowboy boots and Daisy Dukes for a shot at rock n’ roll stardom. Maybe this way she’ll be able to sell some records.

Tori Spelling is steaming mad about the fuss that’s being made over her scary-skinny frame.

“Oh my God, I’m not anorexic - I acknowledge that I look thin in photos, I get it,” she told People magazine.

“Obviously I don’t want to lose any more weight, but people haven’t seen me not pregnant in two and a half years — I’m eating healthy, I just have a crazy lifestyle.”

She’s used this excuse a few too many times. I really don’t care how busy she is. Driving your kids from home to day-care twice a day doesn’t burn THAT many calories.

“I’m so blessed to have as many jobs that I have, but I’m the first to admit that sometimes I don’t have the time to sit down for a well-balanced meal,” she adds. “Usually like you kind of just finish whatever your child doesn’t eat. I’m like, ‘Cool, you have a few pieces of hot dog left and one broccoli floret and a fry, I’ll take it.’

Here’s a suggestion, Tori: instead of picking off your kid’s plate, why not ask whoever is cooking her meals to whip you up a little something of your own?

“I want to be a positive role model for my daughter. The last thing I want to put out there is that it’s acceptable to be too thin or have an eating disorder because you’re in Hollywood.” [Source]

How Tori Spelling expects anyone to believe this hocus-pocus is beyond me. If you really want your kid to grow up healthy and happy, Tori, you’re gonna have to do some growing up yourself real soon.

We love Scarlett Johansson for many reasons, not the least of which is that she refuses to just sit back and relax while everyone (present company included) makes a sport out of discussing her body.

Scarlett Johansson is giving the skinny on how she’s slimming down for her new role as Black Widow in ‘Iron Man 2,’ denying the rumors that she’s been on a crash diet. In a blog written for the Huffington Post, the actress says she’s taken her workout to a whole other level. “I’ve come to this conclusion: chin ups are near impossible and lunges suck,” she writes. “There is no magic wand to wave over oneself to look good in a latex cat suit. Eating healthy and getting fit is about commitment, determination, consistency and the dedication to self-preservation.”

Scarlett also posted the following on her personal blog site, firing back at folks who have accused her of employing unhealthy practices to drop 14 pounds:

“If I were to lose 14 pounds, I’d have to part with both arms. And a foot. I’m frustrated with the irresponsibility of tabloid media who sell the public ideas about what we should look like and how we should get there.” [Source]

It’s true: I’m irresponsible but at least I’m responsibly posting her rebuttal.

Tori Spelling finally got around to launching her new tell-all book the other night and she revealed a lot more than folks were expecting. The “90210″ star is looking so skinny these days, it’s hard to believe the poor girl ever gave birth to either of her children.

Dressed in an emerald green babydoll dress, the 35-year-old cut a rather sinewy figure compared to the healthier look she unveiled back in January when she unveiled her post-baby body.

The pictures are even more worrying as the low weight of Tori’s very thin young co-stars have sparked fears for their health.

One US magazine cover showed the new stars of 90210, Shenae Grimes and Jessica Stroup at a showbiz event looking extremely thin.

A source told Us Magazine: ‘The girls were all skinny when they started, but they’re definitely thinner now.’

It appears that Tori, who appeared in the original show may be feeling some pressure to keep up with its new young stars. [Source]

Tori is probably putting all of this pressure on herself. Maybe it’s time for a reality check. She’s got two small kids and a husband who seems to love her—isn’t all that worth more than a role on some lame show that nobody even cares about anymore?

Mischa Barton is so happy with her body just the way it is she’s decided to show us more of it. She removed some key articles of clothing for a recent Cosmopolitan cover shoot and seems just as shocked as ever that anyone would even care about her physique.

“Surely there are more important issues than if someone has cellulite?” she told Cosmpolitan magazine.

Yes, of course there are, Mischa, and people are talking about those issues in addition to your cellulite. You’re cellulite just happens to be one source of entertainment for some. Mischa’s inability to comprehend her own place in the universe went even deeper in the interview when she mused:

“And I don’t understand the point of people looking for bad things. Why bother? I know it’s human nature to want to pick on other people, but I find it a little shallow.”

It is shallow, you’re right. And if you’re so concerned about shallowness and lack of sensitivity, you might want to consider getting your skinny naked ass off the cover of Cosmo and taking a bus right out of Hollywood.

Despite her views the 23-year-old has recently shed a lot of pounds, going from a size 12 to a size 6-8 in six months, sparking rumours of health issues and accusations that she was now too thin.

But she professes to being confident about her body and at ease with her image.

“It’s human nature to be self-critical, but it’s possible to like the way you look,” she continued.

“I’m happy now – I wouldn’t change my body and I couldn’t anyway. The only way to be happy and be a more enjoyable person to be around is to embrace what you’ve got. Everyone has issues about their body, but I feel confident now. [Source]

Well, at least someone does. Lord knows there will be plenty of thirteen-year old girls feeling pretty bad about their bodies when they pick up the May issue of Cosmo. But who cares about them, really? They’re just normal people.

There’s not much else to say about these pictures other than the fact that Ellen Page looks cute as a button. She’s like a little Hipster Disney character in her Chucks, bandanna and flannel shirt. She even manages to pull off baggy skinny jeans, which is sort of an oxymoron and yet, on her, it works.

Tara Reid has had a rough go of things over the last several years but these photos make me think that she’s back on track. Reid doesn’t look scary-skinny and her skin looks great, which says a lot about what’s going on inside.

Poor Jennifer Love Hewitt just can’t win. First she’s being picked apart by the media for being too heavy. Now she’s finally lost some weight and people are scared that she’s too thin. The “Ghost Whisperer” star showed up at the Annual Academy of Country Music Awards last night in a free-flowing white dress and because her arms looked a little twiggy, folks are flipping out.

Jennifer Love Hewitt has been pictured looking skinnier than ever, sparking new health fears for the stunning actress.

The Heartbreakers star came under fire earlier this year for her curvy frame, which resulted in unflattering pictures being taken of her at the beach.

At the time Jennifer refused to be bullied into losing weight, and told fellow curvy sensation Jessica Simpson to do the same, after she too endured criticism for her weight gain.

However, it seems that two months is a long time in Hollywood land, because she has now slimmed down dramatically and unveiled her new look at the 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, in Las Vegas last night. [Source]

I don’t know. This picture doesn’t look so dramatic to me. What do you think? Is Jennifer too thin or just perfect?
