Black VS White! Kate Beckinsale VS Sofia Vergara!

Black VS White! Kate Beckinsale VS Sofia Vergara! | kate beckinsale body comparisons

2 enviable slim & curvy figures, 2 ladies in opposite colors, but similar types of dresses. That settles it:

Who’s the hottest on this occasion? Black VS White! Kate Beckinsale VS Sofia Vergara!

P.S. Apparently, this particular position of the leg extends your figure and makes you appear leaner and a little slimmer. It’s not my theory, it’s Victoria Beckham’s. Let’s all experiment it!

Real Kate Versus Photoshopped Kate!  | photoshop job kate beckinsale

Dear photo editors,

Allow me to ask: Do you love your job so much that you end up doing it (your job, that is) even when it is SO NOT necessary? Like in Kate’s case right here. You see, Kate’s got an amazing body, a body which besides being amazing, is also REAL. I’m not the only one saying so, I’ve got a website called www.skinnyvscurvy.com and my readers are saying the same thing (people, back me up here), while their jaws drop at the sight of Kate’s figure – REAL figure, excuse my repetition.

Also, we would really like to know why you attempted to metamorphose Kate’s hips from convex to concave, why you had to liquify (yes, I know the terms) her (already small) waist into something that would usually require extracting a rib or why you felt the need to take an inch (or two) from her thigh and use the same inch (or two, or three) to extend her legs.  

But I guess we should all look at the bright side here: a “Thank You” is in order for not going as dramatic as you did in the “OMG, that’s not her body!”-Jennifer Lopez cover. So thank you, but next time, please don’t equip yourself with as many Photoshop guns tools and start a war with Kate’s (or Jennifer’s / or Mariah’s / or -insert curvy girl’s name- ) curves. 

Regards,

Versus

Kate Beckinsale Talks about Her Body, Diet and Workout

Kate Beckinsale Talks about Her Body, Diet and Workout | kate beckinsale

In case you were ever wondering “What does Kate Beckinsale do to look that good?”, yet you weren’t interested to read the same old high in protein / low in carbs, generic diet that tabloids claim all celebrities with skinny bodies follow, here are Kate’s own words about what she does to look like her fit and fab self:

Kate Beckinsale admits she isn’t always confident about her body. “I’m entirely normal. I have my good days and my bad days,” she tells the December issue of British Elle. “I am a lot more body confident now I’m in my 30s and am in better shape, too.” When she was in her 20s, she says she “didn’t have a clue” about healthy eating. “I’d eat a small breakfast and lunch and then have a baked potato for dinner and feel really horrible,” she says. “Now my typical daily diet is eggs or oatmeal for breakfast, a chicken or vegetable wrap for lunch, then fish and vegetables for dinner.

“But if someone turns up with cupcakes mid-afternoon, I’ll have one,” she continues. “I’m not aiming to be Gisele. And I’d hate to be one of those people who won’t allow themselves a slice of birthday cake.” She says she is “amazed that people obsess over my body image so much. Why do we encourage this war on women’s bodies? It’s a horrendous way to live, and I refuse to.” Going to the gym can be tough, she admits.

“I just can’t make it part of my daily life,” says the star. “I go to the gym when I have to, and if I have to bulk up or slim down for a film, I will. “I’ve recently got back into exercising four times a week. I run for half an hour at a time but never outdoors, as I don’t exercise in public,” she says. “My gym’s in my garage at home.”

Fitted Versus Puffy! Kate Beckinsale Versus Jennifer Lopez!

No no, I’m not referring to their bodies, but to their fitted, respectively puffy white dresses.

Which type of dress do you find more flattering?

The fitted dresses define your figure nicely, but they can reveal any minor flaws (lumps, bellies, bumps, rolls). Lucky Kate, she’s flaws-free.

The puffy dresses can make you look… a little puffy, but they can also hide all the imperfections (lumps, bellies, bumps, rolls) successfully.

Which dress would you rather wear? And who looked better last night?  Kate Beckinsale Versus Jennifer Lopez!
