Carnie Wilson and Tracey Gold and their families are starring on Celebrity Wife Swap in an episode to air tomorrow, January 3. As is expected for this show their families are polar opposites. Tracey and her husband have three boys and their household is very regimented and rule-oriented. Carnie has two girls and she and her husband are lax about discipline. So it could potentially be interesting to see how each of the moms deals with the other’s rules when they switch households for a week.

As part of promotion for the show, Carnie has a new interview with Fox News. Everyone focuses on Carnie’s weight since that’s what she’s made headlines for since she lost 150 pounds through gastric bypass in 1999 and posed nude for Playboy in 2003. It was in early 2010 that she got weighed on the Dr. Oz show and was described by Oz as “morbidly obese” at 218 pounds. To Fox, Carnie admits she’s gained a lot of weight and says she hopes to take it off this year. She admits she’s addicted to food and needs to learn better coping methods to deal with stress.

Carnie also said that she was nervous about putting her family on television and exposing them to scrutiny. I need to point out that this woman had her own reality show just two years ago. From what I understand it focused more on her than her kids, but I believe (I didn’t watch it) her family was shown on TV. So this is ripe that she’s super worried about it now.

Since last year’s hilarious appearance in ‘Bridesmaids,’ [Wilson Phillips'] career has been on an upswing. A reality show called ‘Still Holding On,’ will air in April, and concert dates and a new album in the works.

FOX411: Were you nervous about doing ‘Wife Swap’?
Carnie Wilson: Yeah I was actually. I was nervous for my children. Sometimes reality T.V. can be stressful. I didn’t want them to be exposed to any pressure or Hollywood weirdness. [My husband] Rob and I were a bit apprehensive. We knew it was going to get personal. We were going to be compared to their parenting styles, the marriage, the lifestyle, whatever. We knew we were going to feel a little bit vulnerable. We were willing to take the risk because something cathartic always happens, there’s always good lessons learned and you know it keeps me on T.V. and pays the bills.

FOX411: What did you learn?
Wilson: I could not believe how well behaved Tracey’s four boys are especially when they’re asked to do something.

FOX411: Did it make you realize your kids don’t do that?
Wilson: Oh yeah. I was like, ‘Oh s**t.’ We have loose rules. For me it’s like, ‘God, why do I have to ask you to do something four times?’ I know they’re not deaf, that they hear me. When Roby [Tracey Gold’s husband] asked his kids to do something they were like f**king trained seals.

Also it made me realize the most precious thing between Rob and I is that we have to stay strong and get stronger in terms of the way we honor each other. I realized that I have to slow down. I work so hard, I’m so busy. I realized that I don’t have enough time with Rob and when I saw the way Tracey and Roby are together, they keep that going so well.

FOX411: How is your weight these days?
Wilson: I’ve had so much stress in the last year so it’s really struggle. I never hide, when I walk down the street, someone’s going to take my picture, that’s what I look like. It’s usually a sh**ty picture. I’m definitely up in weight. I’m looking forward to getting an exercise routine again. It’s like a daily decision. Am I going to eat healthy today or am I going to make some sh**ty decisions?

I always think I am one of the the millions and millions of people that struggles with an addiction to food. I don’t know how to relax, that’s my problem. I can’t smoke a joint, I can’t have a glass of wine because I want 10 joints and 10 glasses of wine. That’s my obsessive compulsive and addictive behavior. I’ve really struggled since I’ve become sober. How do I balance that? How can I relax and not overeat? Because I have a lot of pressure in my life. I’m a working mother. I have a two year old and a six year old. You try to pay the bills, you try to keep your life going and there’s pressure. It’s kind of a funny time right now. Negativity has thrown a dark cloud over this whole country and I feel for everybody. I feel very blessed in my life but I also work my ass off. At the end of the day I don’t know how to unwind.

FOX411: Do you worry about how your eating issues impact your daughters?
Wilson: I find communication is the most important thing. Lola knows I struggle with it. I see Lola loving sugar like all the other children but I also see her pay a little more attention like when there’s a birthday party, I see her being the first in line to get the cake. I see me in her.

I’m glad she’s open about her weight battle and her career. It’s brave to let it all out and admit that she’s gained weight and that she’s doing these shows for money. That doesn’t mean I particularly like her. It’s so obnoxious to call someone else’s children “trained f’ing seals” just because they’re well behaved and listen to their parents.

A few months ago, Kelly Osbourne rather gleefully declared that Christina Aguilera’s weight gain meant that “Christina is becoming the fat bitch she was born to be.” This came after years of alleged and not-so-alleged back-and-forth between Christina and Kelly, and I should point out – it does seem like Christina started it when she really started criticizing Kelly’s weight years ago. Back in August, when Kelly first called Christina a fat bitch, Christina was only slightly larger, mind you, because as we’ve seen over the last week and a half, Christina has really been boozing it up hard, and it’s written all over her face and body. When Kelly and the rest of the Fashion Police crew were discussing Christina’s weight gain and general disastrous appearance during the Michael Jackson tribute, Kelly once again took some shots at Christina.

Kelly Osbourne sure holds a grudge. On E!’s Fashion Police Friday, the 26-year-old slammed Christina Aguilera for her weight. “She called me fat for years,” Osbourne said. “I was never that fat.”

Osbourne was criticizing Aguilera’s performance look at last weekend’s Michael Jackson Tribute Concert. The 30-year-old paired a pantsless ensemble with fishnet tights, heavy makeup and supersized hair.

But Ozzy’s daughter wasn’t the only cohost to attack Aguilera’s figure. “Lady Marmalade got into the peanut butter again,” Joan Rivers sniped.

“I’m looking at this and thinking, ‘Well, she’s put on weight. This just isn’t flattering,’” George Kotsiopoulos said. “But this is just a crappy outfit, regardless. No matter what shape your body is in, it’s just bad.”

Kotsiopoulos pointed out Aguilera was “still probably a size 2/4,” but Osbourne was quick to disagree.

“Trust me,” she said. “I’m a 2/4. That is not a 2/4.”

This isn’t the first time Osbourne has criticized The Voice coach. Last month on E!’s Fashion Police she called Aguilera a “fat bitch.”

“She called me fat for so many f***ing years,” Osbourne vented, “so you know what? F**k you! You’re fat too.”

Ironically, Osbourne battled with her weight in the past, but after her 2009 stint on Dancing with the Stars she shed 48 pounds and kept it off. “I took more hell for being fat than I did for being an absolute raging drug addict. I will never understand that,” she told Us in 2010. Osbourne checked into rehab for drug and alcohol addiction three times.

CB thinks Kelly is full of it for declaring “I was never that fat.” Because Kelly was as heavy as Christina at one point, although to give Kelly some credit, she wore her extra weight a lot better (I’ve included older photos of Kelly at the end of the post). I think Christina’s frame is more petite, so her weight gain is more noticeable. Also: Kelly is a size 2/4 currently? Just like Kim Kardashian and Kirstie Alley, I suppose.

Here are some photos of Kelly when she was as heavy as Christina – the ones where Kelly has black hair are from 2007, and the blonde spiky one is from 2009. Kelly’s body then looks pretty similar to Christina’s body now.

Following last weekend’s rather rough showing at the Michael Jackson tribute concert in Wales, Christina Aguilera and her boy-toy Matt Rutler are back stateside, in LA, where they headed out to the pumpkin patch with Christina‘s son Max. I always dislike this time of year in Celebrity-ville, just because every famewhore with a kid somehow ends up at the one paparazzi-friendly pumpkin patch in LA, where they pose in a series of “Look at me, I’m a great parent!” situations. Now, many of them might be great parents. And yes, this is the one pumpkin patch that includes “extras” for the kids, like a slide and maybe some face-paint stations. Still! Grumble, grumble. I know, I know, I’m a curmudgeon about these things. I should just let go and think, “Hey, celebrities at the pumpkin patch, with their cute kids!” But I end up thinking, “Is this really the ONLY pumpkin patch in LA? Seriously?”

As you can see, Christina is following the Kirstie Alley School of Style. Whenever Kristie gains weight, it’s all spandex and layers, always an odd mix. I have a theory, though. Remember how Kirstie used to claim she was a “stretchy size 6” when she was obviously, like, a size 18? I think Christina does the same thing – as that random nutritionist said the other day, Christina is likely “unaware” of her weight gain, and the spandex pants probably help that delusion. And before you start yelling at me – look, as I said before, if I thought Christina just gained a few pounds because she liked food, no one would care. But she looks unhealthy, and my un-medical opinion is that her significant weight gain is from her heavy, extreme boozing. She’s not a healthy girl, emotionally or physically. Sorry to get all concern-troll-y. But she bugs, and she has a crappy personality anyway, so who cares? Oh, and Matt Rutler is looking kind of rough too, right?

As we talked about on Sunday, Christina Aguilera stunned a lot of people when she performed at the Michael Jackson tribute in Wales. Christina has gained weight since her divorce from Jordan Bratman, but it seems like in the past two months or so, Christina really became noticeably heavy. Of course, part of the problem – at least regarding the concert in Wales – is that Christina has no idea how to dress, heavier or smaller. Even when she’s slimmer, she doesn’t have any idea how to wear clothes that flatter her figure and her petite frame, and now that she’s heavier, the problem has gotten worse. She appeared at the concert in what was basically a leotard with a belt – she tried to Spanx her whole body in what must have been a fishnet catsuit, but she still looked like hell.

By the way, I’m not saying Christina looked like “hell” just because she’s gained a little weight. I’m saying she looked like hell because she gained a lot of weight rapidly, and it looks like severe booze-bloat to me. I’ve felt for a long time that Christina is a raging alcoholic, and her alcohol consumption has caught up to her body and face (as it often does in one’s 30s). Anyway, Radar has this interview with a “nutritionist” who talks about what could be going on with Christina’s figure:

Even though Christina Aguilera’s weight has been steadily increasing over recent months, fans were still shocked at the Grammy Award winning singer’s appearance when she performed at the Michael Jackson tribute concert in Wales on Saturday.

Squeezed into a skimpy corset and fishnet tights, the 5’1 1/2″ singer seemed completely oblivious about the considerable curves she has added to her once svelte figure.

“She is totally unaware of how she looks, no one dresses like that unless they think they look good,” nutritionist Jackie Keller, CEO of Nutrifit in Los Angeles, told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Christina’s unflattering outfit and wild, unkept hair brought gasps from the crowd when she took the stage.

Keller went on to explain that because Christina, who is rumored to have suffered from an eating disorder in her teens, has gained and lost so much weight over the years it has distorted both her self-perception and her metabolism.

“Even if it was years ago, if she did suffer from an eating disorder then the effect of that stays with you and causes a distorted body image,” she revealed, adding that the physical side affects are just as extreme as the emotional ones. “Yo yo-ing in weight completely throws off your metabolism, which is why it is important to feed your body properly.”

Aguilera has admitted to being a junk food addict when she was younger, which adds to the problems of trying to maintain a steady weight.

“Going through periods of eating really bad food and then not eating is a form of binging calling ‘disordered eating,’ which destroys the metabolism because you are always at a war with food,” explained Keller, who provides calorie-controlled delivery meals to some of Hollywood’s hottest stars.

Now the Beautiful singer’s weight gain has steam-rolled to the point where she doesn’t even seem to be aware of it.

“When you start gaining it cascades and just piles on and on,” said Keller. “You only see what you want in the mirror, it’s the same as with anorexia. You only see yourself from the neck up and are unaware of how under or over-weight you are.”

After messing up how she processes food at a young age, 30-year-old Aguilera’s alcohol consumption could also be emphasizing her weight issue.

“If she is drinking as much as people say she is, then she just needs to stop, as that would immediately change her body’s metabolism,” Keller said definitively, explaining that the body deals with the calories from alcohol first, and then stores all the additional food calories in favor of processing them.

“People don’t have any clue how bad excessive calories are from alcohol. Stopping drinking would make an enormous difference in her body, and then she can go on to whittle away her other bad habits one by one, such as cutting out processed food and exercising,” she explained.

The 5′ 1 1/2″ pop star appears to be around 150 pounds, estimated Keller, who thinks that 100 to 110 pounds is a healthy weight for her.

Although this guy doesn’t treat Christina and I usually hate when “experts” chime in about people they’re not treating, I think this guy is made of truth. The quote that stood out to me is “She is totally unaware of how she looks, no one dresses like that unless they think they look good.” It’s true. And it’s keeping with Christina’s on-going delusions about her career and her alcohol consumption – remember her W Magazine interview? That’s where she sat there and refused to accept responsibility for anything in her life, and she came across as a delusion, lie-filled, pity-party-throwing monster. So in Christina’s mind, we’re the ones with the problem.

I already know that I’m going to be yelled at for pointing this out, but in my defense, it would be big news if a celebrity woman walked her first red carpet in more than a year and showed off her noticeable weight gain. These are photos of Luke Wilson at last night’s premiere of the new Showtime show Enlightened, which Luke appears in. Luke has gained noticeable weight. But I was looking through all of the photos of him, and it’s not like he has some beer-and-nacho-gut. Most of the weight seemed to go directly to his face. What does this mean? Is it the result of some kind of medication that I shouldn’t even speculate about? Or is it just too much beer and pot and refried beans and butter?

Despite his reportedly douchey attitude at times, I’ve always sort of liked Luke Wilson. I was recently watching The Royal Tenenbaums for the millionth time, and I was reminded again of how talented he is. He’s an underrated actor. I suspect that he’s not very ambitious, though. Eh. It’s not the worst thing.

As for this new show, Enlightened, it sounds… meh. Laura Dern plays a woman who has an affair with her married boss, and the boss transfers her out. Thus begins her character’s “journey of self-discovery” which includes Hawaiian vacations and counseling and new-found “bliss”. Luke plays Dern’s pothead ex-husband. It sounds meh to me. You can read more about it here.

Here’s what Luke looked like back in April of 2010:

And here he is now:

Yesterday, we previewed Megan Fox’s appearance on the September cover of Amica Magazine, an Italian publication. In that post, I noted that in recent photos of Megan, she looks like she’s put on some weight. Nothing drastic or anything, she just doesn’t look so slim and bony, like she did before. If anything, I think Megan looks wonderful with an extra ten to fifteen pounds – it fills out her face a bit, and makes the tweaking look softer. These are new photos of Megan from the set of This Is Forty yesterday – you can see her weight gain even more in these pics, I think.

Previously, Megan’s trainer has claimed that Megan has never had an eating disorder, and that she just has crazy metabolism and she struggles to put on weight. Of course, Megan has a history of saying quite the opposite – in past interviews, she’s claimed that when she needs to put on weight, she just binges on sweets, and when asked if she had an eating disorder, she gave a non-committal non-confirmation.

Of course, in the Amica interview, Megan once again claimed something different – she said, “For a year and a half, until about four months ago, I followed a strict vegan diet based on raw fruits and vegetables, no bread, sugar and coffee. But I had lost too much weight. So now I eat a bit of everything. I train three times a week doing circuit training with my trainer Harvey Pasternak.” She also disrespects Marilyn Monroe and says that MM was bipolar and a “negative energy” that Megan didn’t want in her life, and that’s why Megan was getting rid of that gaudy MM tattoo.

Anyway, I still say the extra weight looks good on Megan. Her body reminds me of Kristen Stewart’s – you can tell that both of them are going to have weight struggles in their 30s, when their “skinny” metabolism goes to hell.

Here are some new photos of Kirstie Alley in NYC. Yes, she gained some weight. If she had just put on a few pounds while she was truly a “size 6” – as she claimed, since she was a “size 12″ when she started out, then dropped down to a six – then it wouldn’t be a big deal. But since Kirstie is delusional and she lies all of the time about her size, I guess we should take note. According to the Enquirer, Kristie has been “packing on the pounds” ever since she lost Dancing with the Stars. They calculate that she’s put on 12 pounds… which… um… no, it’s more than that.

After triumphantly slimming down on DWTS, Kirstie Alley has gone on a wild eating binge – and quickly packed on 12 pounds.

“No one expected her to keep up with the demanding 2000-calorie-a0day diet or grueling seven-hour dance sessions once the show was over, but Kirstie has returned to her bad old ways.

Losing DWTS – combined with not having a man in her life – has left her miserable, according to her friend. And Kristie has “been consoling herself by eating the best food the Big Apple has to offer… she’s put on about 12 pounds since the DWTS finale.”

[From The National Enquirer, print edition]

The Enquirer has more stuff about how lonely she is and how her double chin has returned, etc, but after a while, I feel kind of bad for the delusional bitch. Yeah, she struggles with her weight, and yeah, she’s been putting on weight after she stopped exercising all of the time. It happens and it was completely predictable. I guess I just feel like we should only make fun of her for lying, not about her actual weight. Like, I bet in Kristie’s mind right now, she’s maybe gone up to a size eight. THAT we can make fun of.

These are some new photos of Jennifer Love Hewitt out shopping yesterday in LA. As you can see, Love has finally forgone even the pretense of wearing something that would show off part of her body – like that hideous sleeve-button Sister Wife dress, or that recent, unflattering tent dress. She’s now just throwing on a muumuu and calling it a day. Take that, haters!

I mean, I get it. She’s gained some weight. It’s not the end of the world, nor is it some kind of situation where Love is deserving of mockery… for her weight. I couldn’t care less about her weight. But I do care that no matter what her weight, Love rarely knows how to properly clothe her pear. This muumuu – in the guise of a long, oversized, long-sleeved sweater-dress – says to me that Love is at the point where she’s over trying to make the pear look cute. It says, “I’ve given up, bitches.”

By the way, regarding Love’s weight gain – last week’s Star Magazine had a bitchy story about it, called “More to Love!” There are references to how Love is “losing the Battle of the Bulge” and how she’s likely gained 20 pounds in less than two months. They even got a doctor to talk about how much weight she’s gained! Ugh. That makes me want to defend her.

For whatever reason, Kelly Bensimon consistently gets pap’d whenever she’s on vacation in Miami. I’d like to think she’s not calling up the paparazzi to take photos of her while she’s wearing a bikini, but the bitch is crazy, so I wouldn’t put pap’ing herself out of the question. Anyway, last year many of us we horrified when we saw several sets of Kelly-wearing-a-bikini photos. Her body… was not good. And I wasn’t even really a question of her being too heavy or too thin – her body just seemed really, really strange. Even though she wasn’t “emaciated” there was just weirdness going on with the flesh and bones. She didn’t look like a woman who takes care of herself, at all – which she probably doesn’t.

So these are new photos of Kelly in Miami this weekend. Having just glanced through the old photos, I have to say… she looks better. She’s put on a little weight, and she has better muscle tone, and basically she doesn’t look like a drunk transvestite with an eating disorder, frolicking in the beach. Maybe she finally got some medication that works for her or something. Well done, Kelly.

Yesterday, I covered the early excerpts from Star Magazine’s Christina Aguilera cover story this week, all about Christina “hitting rock bottom” with her boozing and diva antics. As I read through Jezebel’s tabloid round-up, it seems like most tabloids have “Christina is a drunken hot mess” stories happening. So… either it’s all true or this is a series case of tabloid group-think. Here are some of the highlights from the stories:

Life & Style – The Christina Aguilera “Refuses To Get Help” story here begins: “Looking at the concerned faces of those nearest and dearest to her, Christina Aguilera could feel her anger growing. As one of them began to tell the singer that they wanted to talk to her about her drinking and partying, she snapped, ‘This isn’t happening — and if it is, you’re all fired.” Basically, Christina’s peeps want her to get help (sure sounds like an intervention) but their jobs are on the line.

ITW – Christina Aguilera’s been drinking alone, pouring herself a glass of wine or a shot of vodka whenever she knows she has to go out in public. “It’s the only way she can get herself ready to be in a good mood,” says a source. Someone else claims she has mood swings and a severe drinking problem, and the booze contributed to the end of her marriage. She ALLEGEDLY used to scream at husband Jordan: “I make all the money. I’m the star of this family! What do you do?” And! “The real Christina is mean, nasty and horrible,” says an insider.

Star – Christina Aguilera has “lost her confidence” since she split from Jordan Bratman, and “She gets terribly sad,” and “all the awful memories” come flooding back. So! “She ends up numbing herself with booze and food.” She’s “in denial” and “seriously depressed,” says a “friend.” And, when she’s hungover, she “devours pizza, french fries, and other fattening foods,” which is just SO WEIRD AND UNUSUAL. A doctor who does not treat her claims: “She looks about 40 lbs. overweight.”

[From Jezebel]

At this point, I really do tend to believe all of the horrible stories about Christina. Of course, I believed them before her booze-soaked downward spiral. I believed the junk about her picking up women at bars while married, I believed that she cheated on Jordan repeatedly, and I believed that she’s probably a monster to work for and with. The boozing just enhances and accentuates all of the old stories, and gives them a new flavor. And the kicker is that Christina isn’t going to be getting help any time soon. She and her team have already started blaming Matthew Rutler for being a “bad influence” on poor little Christina, so once he’s out the door, she’s still going to keep on with the badness.
