Is Catherine Zeta-Jones too thin?

100326m1_jones_b-gr_01

The weirdest thing is happening with Catherine Zeta-Jones. Two publications – The Daily Mail and The New York Daily News – have called Catherine out for being “scary skinny” and having a “diminished” frame with tragically thin legs. What’s weird is that while looking at some recent photos of Catherine, I didn’t really see a big difference. Sure, she looks like she’s lost a little weight over the past year, but “scary skinny”? Not really.

The Daily Mail claims she’s “been steadily losing weight over the past few months as she performs eight shows a week in A Little Night Music. Instead of her previously curvy frame, the star’s frame has diminished, with her weight loss most apparent on her sinewy legs.” They also use one of Catherine’s old quotes against her: “How could I ever, ever be anorexic? I’m just working out and not chomping down what I usually chomp down.” Meanwhile, the NYDN claimed last week that “The once-curvy actress Catherine Zeta-Jones has been pictured stepping out in New York on a few occasions this year, showing off her scarily skinny legs. The 40-year-old actress… has knobby knees and thin, shapeless calves.” Strange, right? It’s like everyone decided all of a sudden that she was too thin. And she’s not, really. Just my opinion.

    She’s thin by normal standards – but nor scary skinny. Not Renee skinny!

  2. Joan says:

    She definitely looks more muscular but not sickly, rail-thin at all. Her figure has most definitely changed since becoming a mom but that unfortunately is usually in the cards. I think she is still lovely … one of the modern-day great beauties. I just don’t get the Michael Douglas thing, even after all these years!

  3. Gwen says:

    I don’t see a difference. She probably pissed some media person off and this is their revenge.

  4. lucy2 says:

    Her legs look a little skinny, but the rest of her looks the same to me.
    Even if she has lost a few lbs, it’s probably due to working so much and stress about her step son.

  5. Kitten says:

    She looks good . What is wrong with these mags . She looks natural . No plastic surgery or fillers . She dresses her age . She dose not look to thin .

    Ive said it before and Ill say it again: she is one of those women who carries their weight not in their legs but in their torso. she has a bigger broader thicker torso and small legs. when she loses weight, it comes off her legs first, but she has always been a little thicker through the torso.

    She doesn’t even look as skinny as she was in Chicago – now THAT was scary-skinny.

  8. simplicity says:

    Possibly her acting and singing on stage has created a demand for more work-outs. I do see a difference between her appearance today and that in Chicago. Her face was beautifully full.

    I love the curvy look in women, ie., Streep, Winslet.

  9. Cheyenne says:

    Looks fine to me.

  10. Jana says:

    She has alot of her mind with the recent prison sentencing of her meth-head stepson.

  11. brenda says:

    She’s always been bigger on top with really skinny legs. Doesn’t look scary to me.

  12. LondonLady says:

    I think she dresses way old for her age

  13. Victoria says:

    She looks fine! I dont get this it all, she is not too thin. CZJ has always looked great.

  14. Lilias says:

    No on the harem pants. Just no.

    She looks fine and she wasn’t scary skinny in Chicago. She, as others have said, has skinny legs and is thick around the middle and shoulders. She appears to be apple shaped.

  15. Jaxx says:

    I’ve never believed the long standing rumors that she has subtracted a decade off her age. Here I believe it. Those legs are 50 if they are a day.

  16. LolaBella says:

    She looks good to me.

    Love her leopard print ballet flats in the first pic.

  17. Daddyoh says:

    You can’t be too skinny or too Rich!

  18. Paula says:

    Overall, she’s not scary skinny. Her thin legs are especially noticeable because her waist and torso are relatively broad by comparison. She is top-heavy in an unattractive way, IMO. I thought she had a great figure several years ago, before the boobs got bigger and the legs got smaller.

  19. Aussie Mama says:

    yep, lookin’ like posh and losing her looks with every gram she loses too.

  20. mia says:

    Dresses like an old woman.
