Here are some photos of Taylor Swift at the Victoria’s Secret show in London this week. When I covered some of these Swifty photos earlier this week, I noticed (but didn’t say anything) that she seemed especially small in the pics. Swifty has always been a long, lean girl – she’s all arms and legs, and she really does have a model-type figure. But in these photos… yeah, she looks like she’s lost some weight. Considering she’s been on the promotional trail to shill her album, one theory might be that she’s simply under a lot of stress, plus she’s really busy, thus she’s lost some weight. Another theory might be this Star Mag story. “Sources” claim that Swifty has actually been trying to slim down to a “sub-zero”.
Taylor Swift’s startlingly thin figure has New Yorker doing double takes!
“Taylor has always had the appetite of a sparrow, but ever since she moved to New York she’s become fixated on her body image. She used to be a size zero, but she’s dropped down to a sub-zero. Her frame looks so fragile these days… it’s to the point where thigh is hardly thicker than her calf muscle.”
Factors contributing to 24-year-old Taylor’s increasingly skeletal physique are numerous – from the bad influences in her social circle to her own dangerous mind-set – but it doesn’t seem like anyone in her inner circle cares to confront her about it.
It’s all about the image: “Taylor’s terrified of looking fat in a picture, so her way of dealing with that is to be underweight… but the really worrying thing is how much emphasis she puts on food. She’s always talking about her baking and stocking her pantry with fresh muffins and bagels, but she never eats a bite of it. It’s all for her guests – so can give the image of someone who eats a lot.”
What she lives on: Coffee and salads. “She’ll add protein here and there, or have a piece of toast, but she rarely eats a proper meal. Some people are worried that she may even become anorexic.”
Workouts: “Taylor has convinced herself she’s building muscle because she’s using weights, but she’s not eating enough to actuall put on muscle. If anything, her workouts are burning away muscle.”
Supermodel friends: “Taylor sees her supermodel friends as the standard of beauty and wants to live up to that.”
Party girl: “Taylor has turned into the ultimate party girl. She regularly hosts wine nights at her house where she and her girlfriends will stay up until 6 am drinking and gossiping.”

Judging from the photos of Swifty leaving her NYC gym, I’ve never really thought she was breaking a sweat with her workouts anyway. I think she just goes to the gym for the photo-op, because she wants to be seen as a cool, normal New York girl who goes to the gym. As for the “living on salads and coffee” thing… could be. It could be that all of the cookie-baking is all for show. I don’t know though. My instinct is to defend her, mostly because I think she’s always had and always will have that long and lean body type, and she has been stressed lately. Cut her some slack!

Probably just stress. You can really notice the bolt ons now that she lost some weight.
That’s the first thing I noticed too–her boobs look SO fake now! She’s headed into Tori Spelling bolt-on territory…
The first thing i noticed was the fake boobs too..And then the horsey teeth.
Newbie here, Greek Chic.
I’m Australian and haven’t paid attention to any celebrities since I lost interest as a teen. I’m learning so much on Celebitchy! I know hardly anything about Taylor Seift, but the first thing I also noticed was the boobage, and then the teeth. My first thought was, “Sigh… Fake thripnies.” Are they her real teeth or the ubiquitous celebrity veneers? Not to be mean or body-shame her, but she appears to be all head. And teeth. She should eat some cream buns.
yeah, she looks a bit smaller but she doesn’t look malnourished at all. I don’t think she’s anorexic, just stressed and maybe more aware of what she’s eating.
I keep getting distracted by how much the left bolt on seems to be pushing up, while the right ones seems so much more…subdued. I did think that she is approaching not healthy levels of skinny (not body shaming, just commenting as a health care professional) based on the VS fashion show pictures. The proportions are just somewhat off~
Yeah…but bolt- ons aren’t nasty and saggy like my natural ones.
She’s always been tall and lean. If anything, she may have gone on a quick cleanse or diet prior to the fashion show since she was going to be performing in lingerie next to VS models. I would have done the same thing. It also looks like she got a spray tan, and that always makes people looks slimmer as well. Regardless, I think she looks good and healthy.
I agree. Her thighs look like they have some muscle tone, too. She looks very, very lean – but not unhealthy, IMO. Not that my opinion matters!
I imagine she knew she’d be on stage in front of millions of people wearing nothing but lingerie and watched her intake for a few weeks. NBD.
I’d buy that she dropped a couple pounds for the fashion show. Most people look like mere mortals next to me when I’m strutting in my bedazzled undies and angel wings.
Seriously though, she needs a couple pounds on so the bubbies don’t look so fake.
The bubbies do need that extra weight, Abbott. I wasn’t completely sure she’d gotten implants until she dropped the weight. They’re too round and odd looking to be real now.
That dress isn’t doing her any favors in that department either.
If I had to go on stage in my undies surrounded by all the VS models I would have killed myself at the gym and started eating like Goop. Seriously
This.
Plus she’s always been this body type. People are just nit picking.
She’s long and lean. Her legs have more definition than they used to, so I think the trips to the gym were legit.
Her arms are looking pretty good, too.
She has more definition because she has lost what little fat she had.. probably more a symptom of not eating than actual muscle building.
I watched a rerun Letterman show because Bill Murray, but Taylor was also on. She is incredibly boring, the end.
Shake it off, Kidoo, yu jelly h8r.
Yeah, no. There’s too much bland to evoke any emotion. That would be like passionately hating unsweetened porridge or lightly toasted, un-buttered, white bread.
Milquetoast it is. Maybe some glasses would make her look more interesting. Oh, wait, wrong thread.
Agreed.
Then again she’s famous for shit*y songs, not monologues, so I guess I give her a pass on being boring in actual life. Her music is a different matter, can’t forgive that piece of c***
Thank the Lord! Someone on this site actually said it! Haha
She’s been looking skinnier and skinnier the last few months. No matter what these actresses and singers say about loving themselves blah blah. They always try to drop weight. It’s a shame.
I’ve never heard her talk about weight either way, honestly. She talks about loving herself, but never about her actual body.
I think it’s just her body type. She doesn’t look a lot different from usual to me, to be honest. The only thing that’s surprising to me is that it’s taken this long for the media to try and make a story about it.
“She regularly hosts wine nights at her house where she and her girlfriends will stay up until 6 am drinking and gossiping.” LOL, so wild! Even her party image is too cutesy.
totally – if drinking wine and gossiping are wild and crazy nights, this star writer must be a damn mormon.
Seems to be the “in” thing now to get bony everywhere and fit in to What, sub Zero size dresses? Didn’t know that “size” existed, thought you have to shop in teen section after adult size zero! She is always been lean and pretty though.
I’m not digging it. I hope she gets her weight back. Her boobies look like the bolt ons they are and her shoulders are scary to me.
She looks slender but healthy and fit to me, nowhere near skeletal. But I could see her being fixated on weight and body image now considering her supermodel BFF(s?). I hope she never resorts to cotton balls in orange juice or some other nonsense.
She doesn’t look any smaller than before, to me. If anything, I’m thinking it’s the fake tan and fake tatas making her look smaller…that and as many posters pointed out, it was in preparation for the VS show. If I had to be in my underwear next to underwear models, I’d put away my cookies and hit the gym for a few weeks, too.
Maybe she lost weight because of what that bitchy model Jessica Hart said. I personally think Taylor makes a better vs model than her.
She’s always been long and lean.. but she’s definitely smaller of late.
Hanging out with models will do that to you. Being skinny can be addictive and competitive.
She’s 5′ 11″ and really does look super thin. I’ve noticed this for a long time, all those NY pictures of her leaving the gym dressed like she’s on a runway. I was beginning to think she had started to dabble in the white stuff since it flows freely in the modeling world. But, yes, her being so thin does showcase her bolt ons.
Her cheeks are really sunken in and it makes her look drawn and tired. A few more years of this and she’ll look totally haggard before she hits 30. Shame.
I think she have some weight issues … like a lot of Celebrity
I think her body has changed a bit, but in a more toned sort of way. You can tell she’s been working out. Before she was really just a stick figure and now you see definition in her legs and arms. I think she has lost some weight in her face, but that can happen when you go from teen to adult.
Gawker just released some pictures of TAYLOR and KARLIE KLOSS kissing in a balcony at a concert. I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. Lol.
I am not shocked at all. Karlie and Taylor were holding hands at a basketball game recently. They are very affectionate and touchy. Someone should interview Taylor’s Scottish fold pussy Olivia Benson to unravel the truth. Meow.
I looked up the video, but I’m not sure what to make of it. It would be kind of awesome of Taylor turned out to be a lesbian, but the video is too grainy for me to be 100% sure that’s what’s happening.
I wish there was before and afters of these weight loss stories.
I do agree she naturally has that long and lean look, but I would buy that being in New York has made her look more critically at her food choices. But they make the bolt-ons look even more bolty, like a bad Renaissance-era sculpture.
ETA: The extra skinniness has made her look weird in heels, I think, like her shoes are too big for her frame.
It’s cocaine.
Yup. But no one is going to believe you because Taylor is being worshipped right now and can do no wrong, she loves the snow, people.
She looks the same as she had always. Looks fine. We’re all built different, she’s tall and lean. Her boobs are being pushed up by the dress, don’t look like fakes. I’m lean but not as tall. I’d love to have legs that go on forever
Eh…I definitely buy that she’s obsessed with image, given the demands of the industry and her own comments about her looks. I don’t get the feeling she’s necessarily in eating disorder territory. She has lost a a bit of weight, but she doesn’t have that creepy, bobble-head look you see on women who are just way too thin for their body type. This being said, hanging around models do much, I could see it heightening her self-awareness of her weight.
shes just working out like karlie kloss 🙂
Uh, since when does hosting your girlfriends for an all-night wine marathon make you the “ultimate party girl”? Like. . . really? This word “party”. . . I do not think it means what you think it means.
No one can take the crown from Lindsay – even if she is behaving *now*, she set an all-time record.
She’s looked tall and super thin for years now.
