Diane Kruger: ‘I am not size zero – I wish!’
August 25, 2010 in Celebrity Weight & Measurements, Diane Kruger by Versus

Diane Kruger wants to share a little piece of body size info with you guys:
I am not size zero – I wish! I am a size two or sometimes a size four- it depends.
If I spend too long in Germany and eat too many cakes and schnitzel my weight goes up. But I don’t obsess about it any more. I just know I’ve got to watch it when my pants feel too tight. I love food.
… says Diane.









love the dress.. love the hair.. love her bodyyyy..
size 0? no way! agree.. prob 2/4 since she seems to have some curves, and def a toned bod.. gud for her!
Let’s say it unison: “Wtf Kruger?”
She wishes she was a 0?
Why?
She has a nice WHR and if she lost weight to become a 0, she would have those nice, yet still slim hips..
*wouldn’t : )
I so appreciate her honesty – she looks fit and it sounds like she has a healthy view of her body. She watches what she eats, yet doesn’t obsess about it.
God, I think she is so beautiful and stylish!
“I am not size zero – I wish!”
gross. A woman’s size zero in the US can be worn by an 8-year-old girl. a size 00 would be worn by a 6-year-old. that is so disgusting and NOT attractive
i wish i was too….down to a size 2 from a 6 but my hips just wont let me! dang………..she looks awesome and her body is bangin
You’re hips won’t let you as in you’re hips won’t let go of fat or your hip bones are too big or wide?
my hips are too wide
She doesn’t sound honest to me at all. She is really skinny, so I doubt if she ever eats those schnitzels and cakes she is talking about, LOL
She has to be super strict to maintain this weight. However, it’s nice that she is skinny but still has some curves, I mean, her WHR is amazing.
BTW, she’s a great actress and is absolutely gorgeous.
OMG when are people gonna realize its possible to be skinny without having a strict diet. I’m a US size 3 and I dont have a strict diet at all.
yeah, sure its possible but you can tell that she is not a size 2 if she wouldnt take care of what she eats.
so true, a lot of people can easily be a size 2 or 4 and eat what they want. But she did say that she has to take care of what she eats, that if she eats too many cakes her weight goes up… so maybe she’s not one of them.
true, but even someone who’s naturally skinny will gain weight if they eat too many cakes. even if you can eat a lot on a regular basis and still stay a size 2/4, eating more than you usually (in other words eating extra cake every day) will make you gain weight, no matter what your regular diet is
3 is a misses size.. how old are you out of curiosity?
Misses sizes are cut differently than womens…
Erm…unless she is seriously short, a size 0 is ridiculously skinny and she would almost certainly be underweight and undernourished. For her to WISH she were that unnaturally thin is disgusting- knowing that her comments will be read. What exactly would she achieve by getting down to the bone and having no fat or muscle mass? Fitting her whole body into a glove?
I get she might be naturally slender, but what has happened to the days when that meant being a size 2 minimum, and usually size 4? I guess Diane would consider a size 6 positively chubby.
hmm, I guess even though I was naturally a size 0 and healthier than 99% of you all before I was “ridiculously” skinny… as are the many many many size 0 girls out there who can barely help how they are. I’m gonna remember next time to say a size 20 or above is “ridiculously fat”, even though my best friend is a 22.
Sorry, but your health may be at risk just as much as any fat girl. Of course you may be healthy as you claim – as there are also naturally fat girls who happen to be 100% healthy.
Why would she wish to be a size 0? I mean if you’re made like that more power to you, but it’s not the be-all and end-all of beauty. She looks great as she is. She’s making it sound like being a “sometimes size 4″ is like a flaw or something.
LAME.
I agree! Its sad that she WISHES to be size 0. It sends out the wrong message..
Agree!! And she is already skinny!
Maybe she shinks SHE would look better as a size 0, thought I, for one, disagree.
She’s not saying that every other person would, nor that they should care about ever becoming that size or not.
If that’s really what she thinks, up to now, she’s kept it for herself, as I think she should.
*though
I don’t understand why people equate a certain clothing size with skinniness? being a size zero is not just about weight, it’s about bone structure. Diane Kruger is super skinny, but she is also tall and doesn’t have narrow enough hips to fit into a size zero. In fact, given the right bone structure, someone could be anorexic and still not be able to fit into a size zero pair of jeans.
so true! I used to be anorexic years ago, and even when all the fat was gone and all my bones where showing, I only managed to fit somewhere between a size 6-8…it’s all bone structure.
I agree.
Height plays a huge part in it.
A woman who’s 4′ 10” and a size 6 can be chunky, but a woman that’s 6′ 0” and a size 6 would be slender.
I’m 5′ 1” and I wear a 00-2 (but my measurements are a true 0)
I’m not scrawny.
If I was 5′ 10”, I would be.
Well said.
ehm, i´m not sure about her comment… she wishes that she is NOT a size zero or does she WANT to be a size zero??
She does want to be a size zero. How pathetic. I mean, she is such a skinny woman, not even a girl, and sounds so stupid with her “wish”.
Actually, size zero is only possible and looks good when somone is really short and has very small frame. That’s why models, who are tall look ridiculous when they are size zero. And, of course, unnatural.
I don’t get this obsession about size zero, why do most girls are trying so hard to get that skinny? I mean, if you don’t have the right bone structure, skinniness will never look good, poking out bones are not attractive. Gaunt faces either.
Size is not that important, it’s all about how you look, what your proportions are and, most importantly, how you feel. Being size zero and starving yourself to get to that point is useless and not healthy, IMO.
You posted the best comment I´ve ever read at this page!=)
Gee thanks. How about me? I’m 5’9, but have a very small frame. Glad to hear I look ‘unnatural’ at a size 0.
I knew someone will take my words personally. Lynn, it’s totally fine you’re a size zero without efforts. But generally speaking, most girls who want to be a size zero are not meant to be that small. And even if they achieve that holly number zero on their clothes tags doesn’t mean they look good. Actually, in most cases they just look like bags of bones, skinny and shapeless. And what I find really really sad that they sacrify their health and their well being just in order to be impossibly skinny.
I know many girls who are naturally skinny, small or large framed; but they all look good, because it’s obvious they are born skinny and look healthy. That was my point, didn’t want to insult anyone.
I agree with the general consensus here – why would she “wish” to be a size 0 when there is clearly not an ounce of extra fat on her? She looks great but if she were to go from being a 2/4 to a 0 it would not look attractive. She is making it sound like size 0 is an aspirational size, there should not BE a clothing size to aspire to. Since when is looking good about a number on your jeans rather that what looks attractive and healthy? Its a bit mad. I have known girls in real life who aspire to be size 0 like its the holy grail or something, its so silly, I wish people would stop focusing on size and just think about what actually looks good rather than fitting into some elite group of “size 0′s”.
Well said.
It’s ridiculous how obsessed we are with lables and measurements. People want to be able to say ‘I wear a UK size 6′ or ‘I have measurements of 36-24-36′ like it holds some kid of status. Well, I guess it actually does, but at the end of the day if you look good then what does it matter?
I’m not saying there is anything wrong to aspiring to a size or weight – it’s a common thing for women to do – but it should be because you think it works for you, not because it’s stated as being the most popular. With my big head I know a size zero will not look good on me so I’m not even going to go there.
Yes, I agree. Our obsession with numbers is rather silly. In the grand scheme of things does it really matter?
She wishes she was a size 0?
I think she looks a bit too skinny here, she looks too skinny for her frame or something weird, she looks alot better in a bikini though.
because being a 2/4 isn’t good enough when you already look great? just gotta be a 0 for whatever reason…
ironic how the number 0 means so much.
delusional.
I though her hips looked huge in these pics, but not in the bikini shots. What body type is she, Versus?
*thought*
Maybe a thin vase – proportionate, shoulders = hips, defined waist… even though she does not have a big bust.
an hourglass.
She would look sooo good with another ten pounds on her- and her ass would look amazing. Right now she looks unnaturally thin despite her curves.
I agree…i feel like she probably struggles to be ‘skinny’, as it doesn’t come as naturally as people think. A little extra weight would mean she is still slender, but with squeezable curves- her whr ratio is great and those hips would make a lovely ass
I agree! Did you see her in Troy? She gained at least 10 pounds for that and looked really good. I think it suits her frame more to have the extra weight – she does looks a little on the thin side for her hips and shoulders the way she is now.
“I am a size two or sometimes a size four- it depends.”
As are most Hollywood actresses. There are very few actresses who are truely a size 0, even if people keep saying Hollywood is a size 0 industry. No, Hollywood is a size 4 industry. High fashion is a size 0 industry, and the only one. So no, there is very little pressure to be a size 0 unless you’re going into high fashion modeling.
The only reason why people feel the pressure is people keep making it continue to exist by perpetuating the belief that their favorie actresses are size 0.
Unfortunately, unless you’re pretty savvy on this reality, you’ll take the press at face value.
True.
I just feel like there’s a huge discrepancy between what the weight standard is, and what people think it is. And I feel like if people would become more aware of this discrepancy, a lot less people would feel horrible about their bodies, since only a very small portion of the population can be a natural size 0.
It would definitely help to an extent. Odd thing is that many people that advocate the size 0 trend are not size 0′s themselves or anywhere near close. People may be somewhat justly ignorant to the fact that not all celebs are size 0′s but they can blatantly see that the everyday people around them are not typically that size. I think women will feel better about their bodies when they realise that our bodies are not to designed to follow fashionable trends and stop putting pressure on each other to do so.
There is some serious doublethink going on in the media at the moment. One minute it’s scary skinny is bad, and then its look at skinny minny’s enviable figure, and then we get voluptuous curves, in the same breath as piled on the pounds. It wouldn’t surprise me if I found a quote of Diane saying she wishes she could be curvier.
You are so right. Completely agree.
why?? she’s already curvy. anything curvier would look as ridiculous and artificial as say Christina Hendricks.
Since when does anyone need to justify why they are not a size 0???
As if size 2/4 is not small enough, esp. for a girl of 5ft8!
Oh my gosh she is my same height and dress size. I am 5’8 and usually a 2 or 4. I however find myself the perfect size for my height because i have hips and a waist but still able to eat what i want when i want. I feel like if i was a size 0 i would look sickly.
I love that dress. Her body is awesome! Does anyone know her height?
Whether she is or not 5´8, seems to be controversial. I think she looks taller than she is. Pretty skinny girl and great bone structure.
I think Diane is beautiful and her body rocks, especially her WHR and legs.
bullshit, shes not a size 2
more like 4/6 imo
British or US?
She`s beautyful and i saw her infront my own eyes when she was in my country MALTA when they filmed Troy and i was there as an extra
she is part polish.
otherwise she’d be huge all those gorgeous german/dutch models have roots somewhere else.
lord knows northern women have the tendency to be heffas.
you sound like a real idiot you know, I hope your comment gets deleted.
She doesn’t have pole ancestry.
Doutzen Kroes is full Dutch
Heidi Klum is full German.
There are large women in all parts of the world.
But lemme guess you’re an eastern european and feel the need to let us know how you are all ‘superior’, as I’ve heard so many times?
I don’t believe she is a size 2 either.She looks like a size 4 no but wait Jessica Simpson is a 4?? lol… just kidding. At least she is not as bad as most celebs that always say they are a smaller size than they actually are.
Why does she admire to have a size zero? She looks so good. She’d loose her charisma and charm when she’d loose weight to become a size zero. I’d kill for having a body like hers!
her CHARISMA and CHARM would magically disappear from her personality and attitude if she lost some weight???? care to make some sense?
its the same old same old. one minute they are defending their skinniness saying how they just can’t put on weight no matter how much they eat, then the next they are complaining about the ‘junk in their trunk’ or some other pitiful cliche and trying to pretend they are just like the average girl in the street. the really stupid thing is that anyone still pays attention to anything celebs say on this topic.
I always thought her body was just perfect.
She is already thin and has a beautiful shape. I hope she stops wishing to be a size 0, because I can’t picture her body more gorgeous than it already is (with that height and bone structure).
shutup, you don’t eat cake
shutup, you don’t know one iota about her.
…you know, I actually had dinner with her once…and she eats well, and doesn’t look as thin in person as she photographs…but don’t get me wrong, the girl doesn’t need to lose weight. Clothes wish they could wear her…
‘I wish’ ? Ugh, keep your sick-ass complex to yourself
actually dianes grandmother is polish, look it up
and no im not eastern european, im english but those northern women are bigboned just spend a day in holland or germany.
well I haven’t been able to find that infomation anywhere.. but that still makes her 3/4 German.
I live in Austria. I’ve been to Germany and Holland many times. I’m also on holiday in England right now.
There are more overweight women here than I ever saw on the continent.
Oh btw I am of partially austrian ,bavarian and lichtenstein stock..
true, our land holds many a heffa.
but doesnt take away from the fact that yall northern women are big-boned
but german women tend to differ alot
also theres a small group of pretty dutch women
once they grow older though..smoking, tanning + drinking= disaster
I’m going to throw another opinion in the lot…
I have a hard time believing she REALLY wants to be a size zero… I think the “I wish!” is one of those colloquial things you throw into conversation to indicate modesty (Fashion slanted interviewer probably asked her “Can you fit into sample sizes/size 0?”), which is why she follows by listing her real sizes and saying that she’s even a 4 sometimes (when’s the last time an actress actually admitted she wears a larger size?)
She has the guts to pick some edgy fashion choices on the red carpet, has a fit but healthy body, has an amazing boyfriend who’s also supportive, and isn’t really into the whole Hollywood scene. I think these things really reflect her confidence in herself… which is why I think the “I wish!” is not serious.
(*That’s my slant on the context of the quotation, if she becomes anorexic in 6 months I’ll gladly eat my words)
she looks like a size zero too me….
Sources say her measurements are 33.5-23-34.5 so that would make her about a size 2, although I question the waist measurement.
I don´t think she meant that so literately.
She is gorgeous, she has a stunning face and beautiful delicate features. Elegant is the right word.
Hello girls! I have one little request .. I know that weight and measurements are not exactly the theme of the post.My height is 165 sm, I weight 54 kg and my measurements are 98 – 56 – 95 in sm .. I’m not from America so I don’t know how to turn centimeters into inches and kilograms to lbs. I would be very happy if someone turns them for me.. Thank you and sorry again for asking this here :s
I wish i was a size 0 too im a australian size 6 (u.s 2) and a size 6 is the smallest we sell here so i will NEVER know if im a true 0.my measurements are 29-24.5-32.5 and im 5’6 and btw this girls arms look photoshopped in the 1st pic…
so you will all hate me for saying this but someone’s got to do it….. I think its disgusting that women can sit here on the computer and bog about how a size zero is unattractive .. you are obviously all fat , I mean how could u not be. its pathetic that there even making clothes size 8 and up .. why are they promoting obesity and diabetes
do some research! and find out the facts
eat organic brown rice chicken and veggies ppl ! you will never be over weight! and will add years to your life
actually many tall women are size 8 or higher.
but I agree with the rest… almost everyone here hates skinny women, especially if they are ruler shaped like the media stupidly and rudely makes ALL skinny women out to be (unless they have big boobs like Beyonce, Kim K., ScarJo, etc).
IM A SIZE 4-6 US I BET SHE WOULD CALL ME OBESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND THE FATTEST GIRL IN THE WORLD
