Miley Cyrus shows off her gluten-free Pilates body in a corset: too thin or just fine?

This is a photo Miley Cyrus tweeted and then deleted (I can’t find it on her feed). Yeah… when I was 16 years old, I was obsessed with corsetry too. You can have a lot of fun with that stuff when you’re young and thin. Nowadays, I have to talk myself into even looking at Spanx because I know all of that shape wear stuff is so uncomfortable. Control-top pantyhose is my limit.

So, do we need to have a conversation about Miley’s really slender figure? I’ve said before that I kind of envy her life these days – she spends her days going to Pilates classes, getting high and having sex with her hot fiancé. But in the corset photo, and the photos of Miley shopping in New Orleans (below), you can really see how much weight she’s lost over the past few months. I’m not going to get all judgy – after all, we do know she’s been exercising a lot and she went gluten-free. And she still has her teenage metabolism. Maybe her weight loss is healthy. I don’t know though… personally, I’d like to see her gain some weight back. She looks so friggin’ tiny.

Meanwhile, just days after Miley announced her engagement to Liam Hemsworth, Miley’s big brother Trace Cyrus announced that he and Brenda Song have called off their engagement. Brenda and Trace’s relationship over the past year has been kind of sketchy – first, they announced their pregnancy, and then Brenda’s mom claimed Brenda was never pregnant, and then Brenda and Trace got engaged… it was all a big mess. Trace released a statement: “Brenda and I have decided to go our separate ways. We split up a couple of months ago. We will continue to focus on our careers. I wish Brenda the best and much success in the future. I hope everyone can respect our privacy about this situation.” Poor Trace. Ten bucks says Brenda dumped him.

    I know you can’t help your body type-but her no-neck situation is really unfortunate. Good for her for getting in better shape-she is tiny, but definitely super toned.

    • erica says:

      Totally agree. I think it may just be bad posture? I feel like her shoulders are stuck to her ears.

      • Isabel says:

        Think it is bad posture. Every pic i see of her her shoulders are tense. Supertense, always pulled up like she is a bodybuilder. Terrible, it makes her look very weird/in pain/constipated.

    • Rach Edward says:

      Ok any 19 year old or whatever miley is going G free will shed a whole lot of calories plus Pilates and a freakin hot fiancé will burn off the rest so yes she should have a damn tight body

  2. Amy says:

    That’s a weird jumpsuit and I’m not digging her hair. She’s naturally got darker hair right? I like that better.

  3. TheOriginalKitten says:

    She has one of the few Hollywood bodies I really admire. She has an insanely narrow waist. *sigh*
    I don’t think she’s too thin *yet. I think she’s at the line though. I hope she maintains and doesn’t lose too much more. Also, with such an insane body why the hell would you cover it up in an atrocious flowered jumpsuit?

    • Chatcat says:

      Hi Kit! I agree with you all the way…sometimes some of the clothes she picks to wear are head scratching…if I had that body, her money and all the time in the world I’d always look hot! lol. Oh and I agree with Kaiser too…”I kind of envy her life these days – she spends her days going to Pilates classes, getting high and having sex with her hot fiancé” I mean come on, aren’t we all deserving of something along those lines? Why her and not the rest of us I say!

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Hi CC-
        Totally agree! Hard to find a negative in her life right now. And that’s the thing about her body-I’m probably same as her weight-wise but my body could NEVER look like that because I’m an “apple”. Boo 🙁

      • Chatcat says:

        An apple…now now not so hard on yourself…perhaps if you could do pilates you could turn your apple with a bite taken out of each side? (come on picture it with me)!

        I was her weight 2 kids and 15 years ago maybe…but I do love my curves of today, I just need to get to the gym more often to keep them all toned or I’ll look like a pinapple!

    • jacquie109 says:

      I’ve got to disagree, when you can see the colar bones like that, it has gone too far.

      • Amelia says:

        To be fair, her collarbones have always been prominent. It’s just her bone structure combined with poor posture.

    • Stephanie says:

      She looks like what is expected of an actress in hollywood. She does look more fit than those on Meth diets.

  4. Lindy says:

    Could someone please explain the belt on the pics of Miley in that black… pajama… jumpsuit… thing?

    I’m afraid I’m too stupid to understand what’s happening with that outfit. And that belt.

    And she’s looking pretty thin, indeed. Probably okay for her age–I know that when I was in high school and college I could drop 10 lbs by running 5 days a week instead of 4, or just cutting out sweets for a few weeks, or eating only fruits and veggies for snacks. So hopefully she’s being healthy about all this.

  5. rentho says:

    she is looking pretty thin, but some of these stars just cant win its either their to fat or to thin

    • olcranky says:

      if her face thins out significantly, that’s when you’ll know she’s definitely lost too much weight. She’s still at that age where she should have some baby fat left in her face. While losing a little of that fat does help a girl look more like a woman than a little girl, losing too much ages them considerably. If they’ve gone too far, they’ll always look a little worn an older than they are (take a look at Scarlett Pommers and how she’s lost some of that luster because she lost all the fat in her face way too young due to her anorexia and she looks much older than she is). I think that may be another reason so many hollywood women have so much work on their faces at such a young age, the extreme diet to be thin ages their faces prematurely (unfortunately, the treatments actually make things worse but they delude themselves into thinking it makes them look better)

    • corny says:

      yes! too thin and it’s anorexia; and a few lbs and it’s ‘packin on the lbs!’ then there’s the ‘cellulite’ and the ‘veiny hands/legs’ and if all else fails go for janice dickinson, that’s always good for a shocker, especially in a bikini if you can
      let’s just stick to that gosh awful jumpsuit that should only be worn to jump from a plane.

  6. NerdMomma says:

    Oh, to be 19 again.

    It’s hard to concentrate on anything else when Trace Cyrus is stabbing me in the eyes.

    • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

      I will shamefully admit that he’s kind of sexy in an equine sort of way.

  7. bea says:

    She looks great. A gluten-free diet and Pilates are both great for you! I commend her doing both and she shouldn’t be shamed for enjoying her youth and beauty.

    • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

      I just started going gluten-free (waiting for blood tests to confirm possible celiac) and I really don’t think it’s conducive to good health. The packaged foods are pretty high in fat and calories. So, unless I eat only fruits, veg, lean proteins (and no sauces), I’m not sure a gluten-free diet will do anything other than cure my digestive issues (as a high fat diet isn’t great for your cholesterol and heart). Other issues i’ve read re: going gluten-free is that people become deficient in certain vitamins and minerals (because the diet is so restrictive) and can suffer from malnutrition if they don’t supplement.

      • lucky says:

        no processed foods are good for you really and often going gluten free helps to cut a lot of that crap out of your diet. I am gluten free (for digestive issues but not celiacs) and I avoid all the gluten free bread, cookies, cakes etc. just like I used to avoid veggie burgers with more ingredients than I can count on both my hands. Switching to brown rice with your veggies rather than white pasta, or rice cakes with PB&J rather than two pieces of bread or lettuce wraps rather than buns or bread is going to make a difference though. It will only ever be as healthy as you make it!

      • Lovelife says:

        Not true Morticiansdoitdeader. Look into paleo diet. It is extremely healthy.. imo healthiest lifestyle there is. Saturated fat is not bad for you nor does it cause heart problems. Actually grains cause much more heart problems. Also, grains and legumes have a lot of anti-nutrients that cause deficiencies. By cutting out grains you will actually be able to absorb your vitamins/minerals much better.
        Here is some information if you’re interested in further research.

      • amurph says:

        I don’t know – I find that I’m much healthier since I had to go gluten-free. I usually don’t do the packaged food and stick with proteins, veggies, potato and rich as starches. If you do anything that requires flours, use the alternatives such as rice flour, potato flour, bean flour, coconut flour, almond flour, etc. I’m far more aware of what I’m eating than I ever was. The high-fat thing is also in what products/ingredients you use.

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        I can only tolerate the Zone diet, Paleo is a stricter form of it.

        I’ll eat my peanut butter with celery. When I eat bread or processed foods I get so sick.
        I can handle veg, fruit, lean protein, water and tea. And smoothies. That’s about it.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        Thanks for all the info ladies.

        @lovelife, I was speaking strictly about going gluten-free (not about a specific form of a gluten-free diet). The paleo people themselves say the Paleo diet is “superior to the Gluten free diet, as it not only covers all features of the gluten free diet, but also has lots of bonuses to offer to its loyal followers.” as I said in my original post, according to peer reviewed studies ” gluten-free products are often low in B vitamins, calcium, vitamin D, iron, zinc, magnesium, and fiber. Few if any gluten-free products are enriched or fortified with these nutrients. When Swedish researchers studied adult celiac patients who had been gluten-free for 10 years, half of the patients had vitamin deficiencies, including low levels of vitamin B-6 or folate, or both, and high levels of homocysteine (a risk factor for heart attacks, vascular disease, and strokes). Before the study, all the patients had biopsies to prove their intestines were healed and healthy, so these vitamin deficiencies could not be explained by malabsorption. Italian researchers have found similar deficiencies in gluten-free adolescents. When it’s time for an annual check-up, celiac patients should ask their doctor whether their vitamin status needs to be measured, and whether they should be taking folic acid and vitamin supplements.”

      • bea says:

        You don’t really need to eat those ‘gluten free’ products to eat a gluten free diet. Many people seem to use those as transition foods. You can make a pretty tasty ‘sauce’ that’s low cal and gluten free for most dishes (at least I can) For me, the hardest part was skipping the bread and pasta I encounter at most restaurants & the best part is the weight loss.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        South Beach worked me, and I’m going back to it (as soon as I quit drinking wine). I also incorporate the GREAT advantage of the whole “free foods” thing that WW offers: I can eat all the pickles, cukes, watermelon, etc…that I want!

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @bea, I guess I was looking for substitutes for the gluten-filled things I enjoy and I’m a bit lazy, so I was trying to avoid cooking separate meals for myself and my family (hence purchasing pre packaged food for myself). I think I’m just going to have to bite the bullet and whip myself up some healthy gluten-free alternatives.

        @bells, watermelon is my favorite!

    • Amanda_M87 says:

      I heard that unless you have celiac disease or gluten intolerance that a gluten-free diet can actually cause more harm than good and can actually make you put on weight.

  8. Eve says:

    I think her body looks fine — very slim but I don’t see stick thin arms (like Diane Kruger’s), for example.

    I’m not going to hate on her for being slightly skinny just like I don’t want to hate on those who are slightly overweight.

    • EllaDee says:

      hi Eve! completely of topic, but I just wanted to sau that I’m a brazilian celebitch and I always feel well represented by your posts! go on with your crazy self,sister!

      • Eve says:

        Oh, why thank you!

        By the way, I’m taking the “crazy self” part as a compliment…and it’d better be! *side-eyes*

    • EllaDee says:

      hahahaha it’s a compliment for sure! no worries about that 😀

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        Eve, two of my super close friends on tour are from Brazil. I love them so much. So much fun, never in a bad mood, they love to live life.

        And she and my aussie friends will find remote topless beaches for us wherever we are.

        Brazil Crazy is great! You should see my pics of her bday party the other night! Go Eve with your Stefan:)

      • Eve says:

        @ Original Tiffany:

        I’m not exactly the typical Brazilian out there…in fact, many times I think I don’t fit here. For instance, I LOATHE samba and Carnaval. I actually think you’d pretty disappointed with “non-Brazilianness”.

        At parties, I’m the bored, sober guest — hey, at least I could be the designated driver for the night, right? 🙂

        P.S.: I guess the only thing I have in common with your Brazilian friends is the love for the beach (though I wouldn’t go to a topless one).

  9. jess says:

    Something is just off about her.

  10. Nicole says:

    Is she cutting herself?

    • Amelia says:

      I saw your comment and re-checked the pics, that’s a good catch Nicole. It’s quite noticable in the 3rd and last pic. There was a fair bit of debate about that a while back but the jury’s still out. I’d say yes personally, they’re too linear to be normal grazes and not dark enough to be another weird tattoo.
      I think the corset pic is ridiculous though. OTT attention seeking territory now, similar to going out sans panties. I know it’s great to have a fast metabolism but really, is there any context you could fit that photo with? I’d put money on it being a way to drum up interest about her rapid weight loss and just get her back in the tabloids more often. When all else fails, sell your personal life.

    • MaryMW in the MN says:

      That was the first thing I noticed too.

    • Emma says:

      I’d say no. If you cut yourself and has done so for a while (the rumours of her cutting have been going on for months) you will have more than “just” two faint cuts on your arm because that just isn’t enough for a person who is self-harming. Cutting escalates with time because you need more and more of it to get that kick. Also it is very unusal for cutters to not cover the cuts up, but with that said there is a possibility that she’s started on her arm and has now moved on to other body parts that are easily concealed (such as her legs), but then it wouldn’t make any sense as to why the marks haven’t faded.
      Based on the pictures it looks more like her bracelet has slid down and caused pressure marks.

    • LittleDeadGirl says:

      I’d say no as well. I’d imagine the cuts would have to be deeper and she’d be hiding them. On a side note I’ve been asked the same but it’s because I work with animals and I’m all scarred up -lol- So I won’t assume that without proof.

  11. Blue says:

    she’s getting there but i think she knows her limit.

  12. Nina says:

    She looks fine in those lower photos. Of course she looks scary skinny in the corset picture … because she’s wearing a -corset-. She’s taking an already teeny-tiny waist and making it even teeny-tinier. I don’t think anyone needs to wring their hands just yet.

    Unless they are wringing their hands over that outfit. WHAT IS THAT?! Good god.

  13. Jil says:

    We all know that she does it only for attention. Her acting career failed, her music career failed. Now she just another former child star who is known for weigh issues and “interesting” private life.

    • Emma says:

      “her acting career failed, her music career failed” – Ehm, what? Her latest album sold 375 000 copies in just the US. The only unsuccessful movie she’s done is probably LOL but other than that she has been very successfull and continues to be so.

  14. aud says:

    she’d look better with some more curves

    but as long as she’s healthy and happy, whatever. she doesn’t look starved, just very very thin

  15. lucy2 says:

    I think she’s been looking good, but the corset photo is a bit much, and unfortunately isn’t the best image to be putting out there to all the young girls who still follow her.
    I hope she stays healthy.

  16. Crystal says:

    WTF is that jumpsuit? Ugh no.
    She has a hot little body though and it doesn’t seem like she does anything but work out and shop so that shouldn’t be surprising to anyone. I don’t think she’s too thin at all. She looks good.
    I heard her brother is a douche…is it true???

  17. Jenna says:

    I don’t know…that corset pic does makes her waist look almost scary tiny, but she looks fine in that other pic; so just say it was the corset? Though that jumpsuit or whatever it is, is fug.

    • LittleDeadGirl says:

      I was gonna say the same but I think its the corset. She is very skinny but corsets tend to make you look smaller than you are especially in the waist.

  18. johnnybadboytapia says:

    She looks FANTASTIC. she does not need to loose anymore weight tho. **Sigh… I wish***

  19. Flea says:

    I think she looks how anyone her age would look after doing as much working out as she is doing. I think the dangerous part is all the attention she is getting for being a particular weight. Maintaining that weight will be difficult long-term & she may eventually succumb to unhealthy measures to do it due to having all eyes on her body.

    She would be doing girls (and women) everywhere a favor if she would talk about how frequently she is working out & not just this gluten-free diet. I’m sure the restrictive diet has helped but it promotes this “magic diet” concept for weight loss that isn’t realistic for most people. Almost everyone could realisticly increase their excercise routine and notice a change in their body.

    So glad when I was a teenager I only compared myself to my peers, which was hard enough. Competing with rich people and their unlimited access to the best food, dieticians, gyms, trainers, etc would have been so depressing. Too bad health insurance doesn’t cover those things instead of just the results of not having access to them.

  20. Nia says:

    Her back looks healthy. No vertebrae showing. She looks healthy.

    • Lee says:

      First thing I checked too; her back is fine. She looks good.

      I had a friend in high school who became anorexic – it was painful to look at her in a swimsuit with her vertebrae and back ribs jutting out. I’ll never forget it.

  21. Lisa says:

    Take note, people: THIS is a healthy looking body.

  22. Jaxx says:

    I think she looks great. She still has meat on her bones. You can’t see ribs or spine knobs so she’s not too skinny.

    But her hair sure could use some conditioner.

  23. Marissa says:

    First of all, tweeting that corset picture, is a famewhore move. But she doesn’t look particularly thin. She looks toned and healthy. I think she knows her limits and won’t try to take it too far. However, some of you guys pointed out the scars on her arm that I didn’t notice at first glance. Hopefully she’s not a cutter.

  24. Gene Parmesan says:

    im so jealous of her life!! we are the same age, and now im looking around for a job blah, while my 3rd year starts up in the fall…..ugh fuck life

  25. kdogkelly says:

    did anyone else notice the cuts on her wrist?

  26. Jenna says:

    Just so it’s said Kaiser – corsets (properly made ones, not the crap from Fredrick’s or even VS. I’m taking the real ones) are actually shockingly comfortable.

    I’m a 34E these days, and at my largest I was a natural 40H (But hey, I’m also 6’2, so it doesn’t look totally freakish on me) and when working at Ren Faires – I got seriously hooked on corsets. Still am, even when not working. I broke my back (as well as pretty much all my ribs over the years) and a corset supports and holds everything wonderfully. Fitted into one correctly, I can run/climb trees/do just about anything I want in one, far more comfortable then a bra. ESPECIALLY if you are over a C-cup.

    And 2 added spiffs – first: breathgasms. After wearing a corset for a whole day, if you are unlaced too quickly accidentally (or very much on purpose) the sudden rush of air that hits you can actually take you to your knees in slight swooning orgasm. Yes. Really. (Best to have your corset popped by a dashing/beautiful partner who can make sure you don’t hit the floor and instead and just ride the wave down gently!) And second – while it’s possible to do anything and everything (Yup. ~Everything~ Waggles eyebrows) while IN a corset, there is something about seeing a woman in one that turns 95% of the men on the planet (straight, gay, bi – it’s actually kind of weird. You would THINK it has to do with being sexually interested. But no, it’s some kind of cave man/lizard brain bit kicking in that totally overrides preferences. Which rocks.) into noble knights/dashing cavaliers/swashbuckling pirates/etc. So while you CAN do anything you want in a corset…

    You rarely find yourself HAVING to do much in the way of heavy lifting. When I work the Ren faires and camp for a week in garb, I end up never having to carry water/wood struggle with the fire, etc. It’s rather marvelous, really. I’m a total corset advocate and think every woman should have at least one as a matter of course. I’ve made dozens for friends, and made converts of even the most tomboy rough around the edges never gonna be in a skirt girls. Give it a shot in a REAL corset, and I promise you’ll be sold. (Hell. Come to northern Ohio sometime and I’ll get you fitted!)

  27. Happy21 says:

    I thinks she looks great. If she lost any more weight I don’t think she’ll look great but at this point she looks very healthy. Go Miley!

  28. nina says:

    she’s lovely, but she is SOOO not ready to settle down. lol As she shouldn’t at 19.

  29. kate says:

    I want that jumpsuit. anyone know who it is? preferably in white. she is 19 with a great body, and can pull of the granny flower print. she looks great. not too thin. oh to be 19 again

  30. DreamyK says:

    She looks fine. For a fame ho. She’s just really, really desperate and boring.

    Nice pajamas she made from the drapes.

  31. bobo says:

    I’m 33 and i’m glad i didn’t have the internet and twit stuff when i was her age cause i would have been alot douchier!

  32. little-red says:

    She looks small but not really that fit. If she’s going for fit, this is not it

  33. serena says:

    I think Miley’s fine. But she should stop with the fug dresses and the blonde hair.

  34. lower-case deb says:

    “oooh nice floral haltertop dress”

    “oh fugly back”

    “good god it’s a jumpsuit”

    i’d love it if it’s a maxi skirt haltertop thing.

  35. some bitch says:

    Bad posture, Miley…

    Still, holy moly, what a body. Way, way more discipline than me.

  36. only1shmoo says:

    This really complements the subsequent headline about ‘narcissistic personality disorder’.

    I admire Miley’s commitment to saving dogs, but so far that’s the only flattering thing I can say about her, the rest just screams “hypocritical, attention-craving, smarmy, immature child”!

  37. Ramona Q says:

    I think she’s down to 80 lbs now because she’s trying to thin that moon pie face. Didn’t work.

  38. Dee Cee says:

    I just love when these hyper-narcissistic wild and slutty female star characters get their weight down to skin and bones perfection, find a handsome man just about to break into stardom and want to marry them or else.. So she settles down.. they are just a regular happy, happy couple, predicable and boring responsible adults?

  39. Me says:

    I dont want to be that thin, but its not terribly thin… just somewhat not feminine thin.

  40. Shazza27 says:

    She’s young & she looks fine…look at all the other young girls her age…they look about the same..& her pajama outfit thingy-majigy looks real hot from the back….

  41. Lola says:

    She has grown into a beautiful young lady. She looks wonderful. Taking very good care of herself.

  42. erin says:

    she has a great figure but her face will just never do it for me.

  43. annaloo. says:

    To Trace Cyrus: WHAT career? Where?

    • Trillion says:

      totally, right? Are they publicly asking the media to “respect their privacy” for real? Is that some kind of cry for attention or what?

  44. Isa says:

    She looks good.. But her shoulders are wide. They remind me of my own.

  45. skuddles says:

    She’s thin – not scary thin, but she needs to stop with the weight loss now. What is UP with that gawdawful hair color??? Horrid and tacky and cheap looking.

  46. Mourning the Death of Music says:

    The stellar level of “Don’t Care” that I have for all things Miley Cyrus has reached biblical proportions.

  47. Nicole says:

    I’d say to thin…but not by much..maybe 5-8 lbs? possibly 10 would do her good, but then still keeping the tone. She certainly doesn’t need to lose anymore. When your head looks to big for your body..you’ve gone to far.

  48. becauseican says:

    Her hands look SCARY! They sure don’t look like hands of someone her age…

    Also, is she cutting herself? Are those cuts on her left arm, or am I mistaken?
