Reese!! I doubt Beyonce is around 140… try 155-160.
beyonce! she looks awesome.
beyoncee but not when she balloons lol
tho I think she is the hottest of them all!
beyonce! although reese has more discipline and the better shape for a mother of 2.
also i hate beyonces jeans – camel toe, ouch!
beyonce !
i prefer reece’s bodytype, probably because im 5″2 and slender; but i love the way beyonce carries herself and she’s gorgeous at any weight.
Both are beautiful in their own unique way. Reese has her mother, so genetically she fights and works extremely hard to stay thin and in shape. Always fighting inner thigh issues, cellulite, flat boobs. While they are both lookers, here’s the key though, it is the inner woman that makes each beautiful. What makes them both tick, you can see it watching each in their acting, you can not hide integrity and moral strength and common sense and decent parents who raised you right.
REESE REESE REESE!!!!
bey is still sexy too i just dont like her hips..
Its a tough one, I hate Beyonce’s legs…they are way too big but Reese doesnt have the greatest shape either, even though she’s alot smaller.
Beyonce doesn’t weigh 140, more like 133-135.
rese!!! siendo consecuente con lo que soyyy, me quedo con ella
Beyonce because she’s hot say what u want about her body whatever she wears she looks great in! Reese is just blah she’s petite but there’s no hot factor around her
If a “hot factor” means dressing 10 years younger than one should…and also regretting 10 years later the clothes one wears today…then you can keep it. I think both ladies are stunning in their own unique ways. Calling Reese “blah” is just unkind. She works very hard to keep herself in shape, and her sense of style is timeless, classic and tasteful.
Gabe theres no way Beyonce weighs less than 140, if she is actually 5″7 she has got to weigh at least 140 if not more…she is very voluptuous and bottom heavy
beyonce is not 140. maybe when she diets for her roles in movies, but woman is heavy, curvy, and big. saying she weighs more than 140 is not an insult. shes proud of her curves. as you can see she managed to squeeze herself in them skinny jeans and create the most horrid scene (cameltoe) yikes.
Who cares how much Beyonce weighs? What… are you guys all experts? First off, there is no way she is 155-160…Musko is smoking the pipe on that one. I have seen her in person, I was lucky enough to meet her and go backstage when she performed at the staple center. She has the smallest upper body and waist you can imagine. You all are just going off of pictures. She is much smaller in person than you can imagine. THEY ALL ARE. My best friend is a similar size/shape and fluctuates between 135-145. But who cares! Muscle weighs more than fat anyways so WEIGHT SHOULDN’T MATTER!!
It is nice to see a straight guy have that opinion of women.
And in case you all have never seen beyonce in a video dancing, although she has muscular, athletic, runners legs, they don’t move. They are like a rock. I despise people that say her legs are “too big.” That is the body that she was given and she is gorgeous. At the end of the day the people who think she is “thick” or “too big” “fat” is a minority compared to the people who embrace her womanly body and find her to be one of the most beautiful women they have ever seen.
PS I love hetero guys comment.
Im a 5’7″ black chick. Me being kind of tall I carry my weight well. Beyonce is the same,black women are solid,so we can weigh more and still look good. Beyonce probablly weighs 150-160. When I weigh that amount,I wear size small & 5-6. which is too skinny for me. I digress. white women are fluffy,so they like to weigh much less to look their best. i think Reese Withrspoon is adorable. if I were 5’2″ Id need to weigh 130 not to be fat. Me being a sista and Beyonces height, I prefer her shape..
GO LAURA!! i totally agree with u. girls like beyonce have a tiny upper body and then widen at the hips and have damn sexyyy legs!!! beyonce is tightt as well. everythings toned to perfection. want that bodyy.
reese is normal…not too skinny and not at all over weight. Beyonce regardless of her body has a very beautiful beautiful face which can diguise any weight gain or lack there of.
Reese is so not that weight- I’m 122lbs ,5’6” and quite toned but do not look half as good as her!!
My vote goes to Reese I like curves but I prefer some-one who maintains rather that yo-yos!!
I stand by my opinion…. but maybe went too overboard. I’ll say 150lbs
hummm for the people whining about Beyonce looking like she is more than 140.
I am sorry I am 5ft 6…..170lbs. and skinnier than her.
I think you guys are veeeeeeeeery exagerating.
Liandra.. I believe you. i weigh 173 ,5’7″. i wear a medium. You shouldnt tell ur weight though. let someone see u and they guess 130. i love it. we must have good genes!
howcome?Anyway don’t forget that cameras add weight
Love them both, they both look great. If I were gonna be biyest, I’d pick Beyoncé but that’s purely because I’m more of a fan of hers.
I’m going to be non-biyest though and say that both have great figures and are beautiful.
Face-wise, I’m more into Beyoncé’s look, she’s prettier to me. So she wins face-wise.
Body-wise, Reese wins. Even though pear shapes are beautiful I prefer Reese’s petite but not too skinny figure.
Reese is slim, but not skinny. Beyonce is fit and curvy. She looks great!
wait hold on… how come resse is only 20 lbs less than beyonce? when clearly she’s much thinner than beyonce?
As far as is Beyonce heavier than 140 or not I do think that body shape has a lot to do with it. Wherever it “settles” you can really mask your weight. Anyway I do prefer Beyonce’s type. I’m more of reese’s right now I’m about 5’4 and definitely gain weight in the middle. I wish to gain weight in the booty and not the belly!
Comparing Reese with Beyonce isn’t fair though because Reese has had two kids and we all know that most of our bodies do not bounce back after having kids. That being said I wonder what Bey’s “after” would look like after she had a baby.
i have had three kids, and to be honest women with beys body, tend to bounce back quicker than stick figures, because that is how God has designed women, to appear to be smaller in the middle, and bigger in the bottom. I am 5’7, 145 and 36-27-38 and in the best shape of my life. i do not have to work very hard to stay in shape, but i do exercise everyday. Hourglass figures in fact do bounce back quicker, and they do not get stretch marks on the front of their stomachs after giving births. Thankx
I dont think anyone is doubting the fact that Beyonce is beautiful, she definitely has a gorgeous face. However this is a site for commenting on body types and weight and she is a larger girl with very big legs. I do not agree with Laura that it is only the minority who thinks that she has big legs, im pretty sure that most people agree that she is bottom heavy.
Well, UNLIKE SOME PEOPLE, I think Laura’s comment is perfect!!! She is so telling the truth. Beyonce is not a large, big girl just because she is curvy. Curvy and Fat are two different things I wish some of you can see that. I would much prefer Beyonce’s body type because even though she isn’t skinny (which isn’t a bad thing at all!) she is well fit and toned (not fat!). Even though she’s 150 lbs. or whatever, keep in mind that she’s taller. So that makes it okay. Beyonce looks good, she has a womanly figure that men love and many women would love to have. To tell you the truth I don’t even think her legs are that big.
Well Susan, I belive there are several people who love Beyonce’s body and believe she isn’t fat. You’d be surprised on how many induviduals love Beyonce’s curvacisous body. I too agree with Laura’s comment. Even if she was 150-160 that wouldn’t be a bad weight for her becuase she’s a tall woman. Now if you’re 4’11 and weigh 150-160 then that’s a little different. but being a tall women you can get away with that. I’d rather have Beyonce’s body becuase she’s thick in the right places and men love that.
and Jessica, I’m sure there are several individuals who would agree with you when it comes to Beyonce’s legs. I also feel they are not big at all! She’s well fit.
I’d rather have Beyonce’s Figure, but that’s just me (and I’m sure several others lol). Reese isn’t skinny skinny and that’s great!!! But I love Beyonce’s body it doesn’t matter how much she weighs she still looks great!!!!
Yeah, lol I would prefer Beyonce’s shape anyways. I think some of you are overexaggerating when it comes to the size of Beyonce’s legs. You guys make it seem like her legs are super humungus. Their just athletic legs. I say she looks great thick or thin. I don’t care what any of you say about her. At least she has hips, ect.
Reese has bigger hips then Beyonce.
are u kidding or what?common,are you serious?give me a break!
would it hurt beyonce to wear a jean size bigger? shes hurting herself!!
Beyonce wins!!. She is really hot!!!
Being a hourglass shape myself and around 130lbs and short.I shall side with beyonce she looks REAL and not sick looking like reese who looked better when she had more curves.
They both look very good in their own way.
Reese has what it takes. Beyonce is more of a fun date that you just don’t call after the next morning. Reese is someone you could have an intelligent breakfast conversation with (or sleep in and make it a brunch conversation). Petite always beats meat. Besides, Reese is an authentic southern belle!
you need a crash course in enlightenment
Reese because it’s closer to mine
It depends on if you want mens opinions or womens opinions. Men have ALWAYS loved an hourglass figure! They are always more flattering!! You see people like reese everywhere.BORING!! But, a beautiful face, and a toned hourglass will always beat a boring, stick, figure like reeses. God made women to be healthy AND curvy. That is why i have never figured out why women are so obsessed about exercise, and have competitions to see who can be the skinniest. Shouldnt we care what are significant others think about us, rather than what other people think!!God designed our bodies to be naturally curvy, and exercise a little each day. I am 5’7, 145lbs and measure 36-27-38 and am very proud of it!!
Well the truth of the matter is, when you are as petite as Reese you either show your weight everywhere or you have to keep it in check. Women gain in different areas and Reese’s body type tends to gain weight in the midsection. Therefore staying in shape is a must; she will NEVER look like Beyonce does no matter how hard she tries. It’s just the way she is built. And how do I know this? I used to be tiny tiny tiny, just like Reese. I could eat whatever I wanted and I never went to the gym. Now I have two toddlers and it is a struggle to get this extra weight off. I never want to be 100 lbs. again, it was too skinny for me, but I’d love to be 120 again. I’m currently at 150 and I am 5’4″ and I have dropped a cup size from 36D to 36C. My stomach is a flabby mess (thanks to pregnancies, and both children being delivered via cesarean), I have cellulite on my thighs. I even gained weight in my face and it sucks. I have a muffin top and a gut overhang even though my clothes are not skimpy or tight-fitting. I am working towards being 130 for now because that’s realistic but if I can hit 120 again I’ll be happy (putting me roughly at a size 4 in jeans; I’m a size 10 right now). I could NEVER look like Beyonce because I’m not as tall as her and I’m not built like her. I will always be closer to a shape like Reese and THIS is why she is so small…because if she doesn’t keep herself in shape she will look like she swallowed an innertube! Not trying to be mean, just being honest…because I know. I’m there right now. Ugh.
If you are a man like me that likes very attractive women, then Bey is hands down the ideal body type. So of y’all are smoking crack or something. Beyonce is a 34b-25-39 and it is something that makes a man love being a man. I’ve been with quite a few women that are in the 5’10″ 150 area with tremendous body, so I estimate Bey to be around 135 lbs. She was down to 120 for Dreamgirls and up to 150 for Cadillac Records.
Reese is too little and has no shape. She is built more like a young twelve year old about to hit puberty. This is the point of view of a REAL MAN. BEYONCE in the shiznit, although Halle Berry is my ideal…36c-22-37….I’m just being real.
Then you tell me why my husband married me before I looked the way I am now, and why all of the girls he was interested in before I came along had similar body shape to me (and consequently Reese).
Not everyone can look like a Coke bottle or an hourglass. Reese works hard to stay in shape – and so does Beyonce. They both work themselves ragged. It’s just displayed differently because they’re shaped differently.
I LOVE Reese. But recently I have really come to like Beyoncè too! But Reese’s body is fab and I bet she works hard too, 2 kids and looking better than ever !
reese has my vote any woman with two kids
is far ahead in my book.2kids out of the twentys
and not a fat pig she will have a fantastic life
unlike the lower 40 s age bauties who have nothing
but a failing carrerand years of face lifts to look foward
to young reese has it all that is the kind of friend
people want
resse
Reese hands down. Take it from a person who has a Beyonce body type. When you get a certain age, that stuff falls hard unless you are almost gym obsessed. The only saving grace Beyonce has it the fact that she dances all the time. Other than that, I want Reese so that I can bounce back after children.
I think both Reese W. and Beyonce look beautifull in this picture, and have excellent measurements for their sizes (short and tall). Yes, I am sure they do workout (or keep active), and eat healthy to look this good.
Reese is about 105 pounds now, don’t you think so ?
You’re probably right. After she had her second child she was a size 6 for quite some time. She’s down to a size 2 now.
Beyonce looks like she needs to move up a size or two in that outfit. Reese needs bigger breasts or a padded bra. Neither, I guess. Jen Aniston looks the best. Oh wait, she wasn’t a choice now, was she? I wonder why…
Beyonce always wear padded panties and we all know that….but still Beyonce coz i like her waist and upper part ..it is so petite…:)
Depends. If you like the typical barbie body. Reese has the larger breasts and then the slimmer lower body. If you like booty more with voluptuousness then Beyonce. I gain weight in my hips more and am small chested so I really like to focus on having a smaller waist and larger but with toned breast but if I were like Reese and that was harder . I would put on the tight pants and not be afraid to show a little more cleavage. Not that Beyonce doesn’t have that but just a little less. I would say on the whole Beyonce is the smoky classic woman body they preferred in Roman times and Reese is like the beach barbie with the larger chest and smaller (yet feminine ) hips. They like that in Milan and Paris where the fashion babes are.
definitely Reese Witherspoon. She has the perfect petite body that matches my girlfriends
Love Beyonce’s body. By me being 6’1 162lbs, I cannot obtain Beyonce’s ,meaty legs, but I have been able to maintain her Brown Sugar body pic from back in her destiny’s child days.
This long evaluation has produced the reactions of some
rude doods, mostly in Beyonce’s corner. One even claimed Reece to be figureless: view Vanity Fair and think again, I say. Beyonce is very attractive, not least in pour-on blue jeans stretched tightest at the thighs. But petite Reece has my vote because her on-screen vitality and unique face set her apart from Hollywood’s run-of-the-mill “beauties”.
