Christina Hendricks in a Swimsuit
May 28, 2011 in Christina Hendricks by Versus
Finally: today we get to take a look at Christina’s voluptuous bikini body! Here she is in a black swimsuit, relaxing by the pool in Italy.
See one more on the next page!
First!!
love the swimsuit
Currently, my breasts are 32DDD. When I gained 20 pounds, I swear it was allllll in my boobs. After I couldn’t fit into Fs, I just gave up. Point being, smaller size=smaller boobs; bigger size=bigger boobs.
wait, what? are you christina hendricks?
LOL! They will get on these sites from time to time and comment. “They” being celebrities.
Eh? I’m a bit confused. If you’re Christina Hendricks, why use the name “Amanda Piersall?” And if you’re not Christina Hendricks, then your comment seemed a little… out of the blue. Someone please explain- am I totally missing something here? :S
What do you not understand? Amanda’s telling a personal anecdote. What makes you think she’s saying she’s Christina?
Jess- I think I understood it as a personal anecdote… until Rebecca made the comment “LOL! They will get on these sites from time to time and comment. “They” being celebrities.” After that, I got a little confused and started thinking I’d totally got the wrong end of the stick, probably because like I say, Amanda’s comment seemed very out of the blue and in no way linked to Alia- or anyone else’s comment.
Alia said “First!! love the swimsuit” then Amanda replied saying talking about her boobs, which, to me seemed totally unrelated, hence the confusion. If she’d posted as a separate reply, I don’t think I’d have been confused but even that, to me would have seemed a little odd, considering there was nothing to instigate the anecdote- It’s not as though it was posted as a reply to someone accusing Christina of having fake boobs- it just seemed like a random reply to an unrelated comment. That’s why I was confused! It was almost like, “Oh love the swimsuit”… “Well let me tell you about my boobs!?”
I’m not saying Amanda is being an attention seeker at all- from the start I saw her comment as just an anecdote (with a little confusion along the way!) but that’s just the thought process my mind went through ha ha
I think her swimsuit is a tad too small…
Obviously her breasts are real.. She is a very curvy voluptuous woman. Very attractive and confident.
i disagree. i think her breasts look fake. she looks like a heavy set person with implants.
if you look at her old photo shots, her breasts are ‘proportionate’ to her body. which is very different then just 25-30 extra lbs.? i actually think that she carries them off well. i
have a 32 DD bra, and i have a 21 inch waist and i have always worn larger tops and turtle necks to hide them a bit. they are wasted on me cuz i don’t ‘work them” . she knows how to use them, which also makes them seem fake-i’m not hatin just sayin!
Yeah, I have to agree
Some people gain weight in their breasts. My grandma is built just like this. When she was slim in her 20s she had normal sized breasts (34C). Then when she gained 20-30 pounds in her 30s her breasts were about this size, maybe even a little bigger.
you have a 21 inch waist??? wow! but as far as christina goes, she is a lot heavier than she used to be, and i know a lot of people who get very disproportionate when they put on weight. i just find it impossible to say for sure, but she always had fairly big breasts so I’ll give her the benefit of the doubt.
I agree. Looks like big implants to me.
Even if you forget all about her old pics and don’t speculate on how much weight she has gained and where it’s gone, they still look like implants. If they were real and she was wearing such a tight suit, they would be “cut” into i.e. Double boob. However they look solid. It looks like a naturally large chested woman with large under the muscle implants.
But wouldn’t implants look more perky and less long than this? My grandma had way perkier DD boobs at 85 than this lady. I recognize your valid point about the double boob you would expect at the neckline however. I have a small chest so what do I know LOL
Breasts should fall about halfway between your shoulder and elbow. Hers do. Women with naturally chests as large as her breasts need a lot of support to to have their breasts rest at that ideal point. If you look at the upper pole fullness of her chest, it is very exaggerated. If her chest was real, her breasts wouldnt start only a fee inches under her collarbone unless she had way more support than that bathing suit provides. Plus her chest would be resting in the cups and not stretching up her chest. I would guarantee she has breast implants.
Not all fake boobs look fake and “solid.” I have them under the muscle and they look and feel like regular boobs.
Either way, who cares if her boobs are real or not? All that matters is that she is happy with them.
@Bunny Feet:
I´m not sure I understand your evidence… You´re assuming her bathing suit isn´t strong enough to support her boobs up there. Even if it has thin straps it might be quite strong and full of padding. A bikini with good quality padding will easily push you breasts up there and also contribute to the fullness you mentioned, it can even avoid the double boob. To be honest, I don´t think we have enough pics here to assume that her breasts are fake.
@Sharen, i understand your point and it’s a good one. However the straps are cutting into the flesh on her shoulders so clearly the straps are doing a lot of the supporting. It’s a pet peeve of mine when celebs acknowledge attractive parts of themselves and attribute it to nature rather than admitting they had some work done. It creates an unrealistic image that isn’t attainable by most most women. Mostly it’s lovely thin celebs with tiny little noses ala rhinoplasty and c cups that the surgeon created for them that are doing the lying.
As a woman with breats implants who has a lot of friends with breat implants of all sizes, Christina’s are natural. Implants are ore rounded at the top, even if they are not pushed up. Hers are long with some sag to them and way roo soft looking.
*too
Having breast implants does not make you an expert. Like i said, the evidence points toward her chest being enhanced. Not to mention breast implants should look soft. Maybe you and your friends have botched boob jobs. The rounded look at the top of the implant is caused by above the muscle implants but who even does that anymore?
i only know two people with above the muscle and one of them if a body builder and they other one has sagy boobs.
I didn’t say that I was an expert on implants but your statement is ridiculous. Just because she went from being smaller with smaller boobs to bigger with bigger boobs it doesn’t mean they are fake. My mother was quite flat chested and when she gained weight her boobs got really big.The same with my best friend.
@jenn I never made that statement at all so your accusation is ridiculous. I listed other reasons as clues that she has breast implants. You’re putting worse in my mouth and I wouldn’t have made such a stupid statement.
Words* bad ipad autocorrect
I have big breasts and a small waist so obviously mine are fake too…right.
You might have a small waist but Christina doesn’t
once that corset is off she has no waist. but for the record i don’t think her boobs are fake, she is just fat.
To the lady below (br****) you are so incorrect I can hardly believe someone actually thinks this… No fake, plastic, surgical implant will ever ever ever ever feel like real, organic, living with blood flowing through it flesh. And you are extraordinarily ignorant, insecure, and pathetic for saying so. Any woman who says she loves her body WITH FAKE PLASTIC has some serious mental issues.
DID YOU EVEN READ WHAT I SAID?!
@Chi
Who are you to tell someone how to love their own body? I, as well as most people who have them, got them for personal reasons that you know nothing about. If you don’t have them yourself, then you really have no place commenting on what they are like. TV shows/movies make a joke out of how they are “hard” and ridiculously fake looking, but that is not the reality for a lot of women. Yes, I’m sure some people get theirs messed up, but that’s not how it normally is. Mine do look real, they do feel real, and no one who didn’t already know they were fake would ever be able to tell the difference. I would love to allow you to feel up my boobies, then maybe you can finally get off your high horse, lose your ignorance and quit judging other people.
Ew. You’re partly made of plastic. Also, I’m certain your boobs feel nothing like my exquisite REAL 34C breasts. And also I’d rather spend thousands of dollars on something other than myself. Selfish, vapid, vain girl.
Chi…you should add two Ls to your name and take that advice: CHILL.
Calling someone that has plastic surgery a “waste of life” is too far. What about women that have lost one or both breasts to breast cancer? Or the people that were born with deformities and had to have plastic surgery to correct them? Are they a waste of life too? There are many reasons that people get plastic surgery, and for you to group them all into one category and call them a waste of life is completely ignorant and unfair. Just because YOU would never get plastic surgery doesn’t mean that the people that would and do have mental issues.
I definitely think they look real. I you compare them to some large implants like Heidi Montag. I realise Heidi is much smaller everywhere else but fake breasts are hard looking
i have to disagree also. she was smaller overall when her breasts were smaller. mine shrank significantly when i lost 30 lbs (used to be 36 DDD now 32D)
Her breast are real……..Pamela Anderson has painstakingly fake boobs not Cristina hendricks
shes had children remeber your breasts get larger the more kids u have they cn get out of proportion to ur body my sister who was a 32B is now after havign 3 kids 32D her boobs are all natural it cn happen once a woman has children soooo
I look just like her, pretty much identical. I am 5’7” and 176 pounds, yes, overweight, but pretty good proportions. I bet she is around the same.
yes but don’t go rely 100% on bmi because your frame is also to be taken into account if your bone structure is small, medium or large
You are lucky it’s very rare to find hourglass figures these days which are the most appealing
You are lucky. I think Christina is a really beautiful and gorgeous woman and i’d love to have her body. I have the same height and weight than you (well, weight fluctuates ! and more 185 these days !) but my breasts are smaller and i’m more bottom heavy, with bigger thighs.
I think she is very heavy around the middle, but her breatst are real.
Despite her tendency to put the girls on full display, I think her best asset is her skin. I love seeing an actress with natural, creamy skin who doesn’t feel the pressure to bake in the sun or slather on the bronzer.
I have to admit I love her skin its like alabaster.
agree Amy, her skin is gorgeous, like a porcelain doll.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. It’s perfect, and I’m sure she’s wearing some sunscreen! Beautiful woman.
I know, I also love her skin. 2 years ago I always wanted to have such nice pale skin and in summer I wore sweaters/ Long Jeans so I didn’t got tanned
but this time is over now, because I realize, if you don’t have such a Skin naturally, it doesn’t suit you.
Ha ha
– aww Bless you Laura! Can I just ask why you didn’t wear a lot of high SPF sunscreen instead? I mean I agree that Christina’s skin is beautiful but the sweaters in summer can’t have been comfortable for you! 
I think she could have found a more flattering swimsuit one that suits her shape something vintage even, that has proper bust support she needs to keep them babylons supported as much as possible.
agree… i would have liked to see something red or blue. i feel like her personality is very outgoing but she looks demure here. i guess it’s just a picture though, doesnt mean much haha
Wow, she looks so much bigger than I thought…
Because her curves get photoshopped to the max on shoots that allegedly celebrate her body.
I just wish she stopped showing her tits to her face. Ok, she voluptuous and curvy but girl give it a rest. Plus, don’t stone me when I say this but besides all of her voluptuousness and curvyness she should lose some, cause that waist is gone. And I am not hater of curvy girls by no means, but for me one thing is curvy (Sofia Vergara lovely lovely) and completely the other slightly overweight woman who is abusing corsets.
I prefer her showing some tit than Rhianna who is flashing her snatch to everybody in the last days.
i wish some women would just cover up sometimes.
I wish women could live in a world where they were shamed or chastised for dressing how they want to dress.
i agree edith!
i don’t think women shouldn’t be ashamed for how they dress but it would be nice if some women had some clothes on instead of flashing every part of their body.
you don’t think women SHOULDN’T be ashamed? so they should?
and who is “flashing every part of their body” anyway? certainly not christina. yes she has clevage, who cares?! she’s still wearing a bathing suit, which – last time i checked – was definitely appropriate clothing for when you’re near a pool or swimming location.
And my earlier comment obviously forgot the “not”
Edith, True Say!!
i said women shouldn’t be ashamed and i know she is wearing a bikini. i was referring to the comment about how one person would rather see christina’s breasts than rihanna’s private part. i’m talking about women who constantly show off their body without bathing suits. maybe i should’ve explained it more but that’s what i meant.
You said you DON’T think women shouldN’T be ashamed – meaning you do. I now realise that was a typo. Apologies for misunderstanding.
Incidentally, when has Rihanna ever worn an outfit where she didn’t cover her vagina? I’d be genuinely interested to learn about this occasion. And I’m not talking about a short skirt where some pervey photographer looked underneath, I’m talking about an outfit that actually intentionally exposed her vagina.
I agree with that
dude wth? she’s chilling by the pool in a bathing suit, and some creepy guys decide to take a picture of her, invading her privacy, and she’s the one showing he boobs off?
and besides, when you have breasts that large, you can’t really put them anywhere else.
Exactly! Some pap is spying on her, she’s not showing off. and i’d like to point out that she’s wearing a one piece. which is very demure. how much more covered up can she be? does she need to wear a tunic to the pool?
Adrianna – your comments made me laugh so much. You speak such truth.I think the Body Police commenting above expect large-breasted woman to strap them away so they can’t dare to be seen.
She is MUCH bigger than I thought too. But you know what I like? She’s not all flabby and all over the place.
She’s got a butt, hips, and chest. So what? She’s a woman. She’s got a body. Good for her!
THAT’S right! and she’s 36! Come on, I really don’t think it’s that easy for women around 40 to weight 130 lbs!! Let’s go back to real world where people prefer happiness and serenity than stick to a crazy diet just to look fit all the time. Relaxing doesn’t mean being unhealthy
omfg her boobs are ginormous!! and the black makes them stand out more! omg they look 7 feet long oh lord!!! i just noticed they were that huge
I looked at the pictures closely. She is not really fat at all, just somewhat plump and soft. She is always dressed like one of the people on Trinny and Susannah’s makeover show before the new look is created.
BEAUTIFUL
I think she gained weight she used to look much thinner and toned!
Wow she looks horrible, I guess when she’s not wearing her magic corsets all signs of curves/waist disappear. And to think that black is slimming…. not on her. The sad thing is, that bathing suit is holding her chunk in, cause it’s a tight spandex-y material, God knows what she looks like when she’ naked. Rolls rolls everywhere.
Hope you look like an angel if you re calling somebody horrible based on their figure.Either that or you re just immensly arrogant.
So according to you a person must look like an angel before they are allowed to make any negative comment about this removed by admin*?? Hahaha.
It’s perfectly okay to make negative comments about someone you don’t find attractive – it’s the venom and immaturity behind your comments that makes it intolerable. We get it, you don’t think she’s beautiful at all – but ‘rolls rolls everywhere’ and ‘puffy overrated marshmallow’ are just immensely callous and childish ways to express your distaste.

I agree with Anastacia as regard the way she looks and it’s all right for everybody to express their opinion but everybody has to say oh love her, great body, looks happy, healtthy if someone says a tiny comment about something they didn’t like instantly the get attacked. I also so this on some topic of bar rafaeli pic taken from behind even though a person said she looked good but commented on having small dimples of cellullite she got attacked
don’t get me wrong it’s great to stay positive but please if somebody disagrees once they get attacked so who’s worse than the other.
replying to this instead of anastasia’s because hers doesnt have a reply button:
anastasia: you come across as incredibly spiteful and immature. YOU shut up. be a bit more polite.
removed by admin* I have been here a very short time and you are already annoying he hell out of me. We all know you are a bigger girl and you feel like you have to stick up for every “Curvy” girl posted here, but for once, removed*
Agreed. I always take the opinions of a mature and diplomatic individual over a negative and angry one despite whether or not I agree with them. Some people are just naturally negative and they are annoying.
removed by admin*
every magazine has been telling ”us” that we want to be her, and men want to be with her
basically, magazines try to make us feel like shit because she is the best thing since slized bread
i guess thats why there is such an outpour of venom and immaturity in comments on a post with not very flattering pics of christina.
i agree that there is no excuse for it. but i thougt it was a good idea to look at it from the other side
Any reason your comments are so hateful and bitchy, Anastasia?
No you don’t have to be perfect to criticise other people, but there’s no need to be cruel and childish either. You can present your opinion in a tactful and well-though-out way, you know.
@ edith the elf
when I want your advice on how to word my thoughts you’ll be the first to know. Until then be quiet.
Anastasia can f**k right off. what a jerk.
When you stop being such *****, let me know and I’ll start engaging with you as if you’re a normal human being.
LOL , I love Anastasia’s comment (not the initial ones, but the one directed at Erica)
VERSUS: seriously can’t you ban Anastasia and Chi if not for being a spiteful commenter then for name calling. calling erica (who is always polite and respectful) a puffy marshmallow is beyond the pale.
Both Anastasia and Chi are in moderation now.
Why would you “love” it when someone else blatantly bullies another person? Get a life!
Well apparently a lot of people agree with me
You are awesome Anastasia! I love what you said to Erica. All the other comments are from girls who felt personally assaulted by your comment because they themselves are removed by admin*. Why else would they care. It’s not like christina is going to find them and thank them haha. removed*
@ Chi
thanks love, agree with what you said!
@ Violet,
removed* My comment about marshmellows wasnt even directed towards erica. removed by admin*
dont take this the wrong way……. but you guys seriously need to get jobs or some sh*t. get off the f**king computer, grow up, and get a real life.
removed by admin*
When has Erica been rude and nasty? I’d genuinely be interested to know. You are making all these accusations but you have no proof.
Yeah you’re right anastasia, looking at these photos, its so terribly “sad”. *rolls eyes* Sheesh, relax a bit!
Looks like she is having a nice relaxing time, wish I could be doing the same, its just rain, rain, rain at the moment.
@ edith
Thanks for the laugh.
When you grow up and realize that there are other people in the world who have differing opinions than you, then and only then will I maybe consider talking to you as a normal and rational human being capable of handling adult conversation. Until then I will look at your writing as the comic fodder it is.
I do realise there are other people with different opinions. But “adult conversation” does not consist of name calling and bullying, which is what you are doing. Adult conversation consists of reasoned and rational arguments, which is what Erica has been doing.

You find me one instance where Erica was manipulative and rude, and I will stand corrected. I have not seen it.
And I also do not agree with everything Erica says. In fact we have disagreed on a number of points, but we always do so respectfully.
Erica does follow the rules everyone else does…I don’t even understand your point.
Well you know Truth you just might get your wish! I am really getting sick of this and I’m seriously considering not commenting on this site any more. (And I’m not saying this to get sympathy – it’s been on my mind for a while now) I don’t see anyone else getting attacked in the same personal way that I have been on several occasions and it’s starting to get very hurtful. Thankfully I have had some personal messages of support and I know that most of the people on this site don’t agree with the bullies – even if they don’t always agree with me! So I just might stick around to be a fly in your intolerant soup for a little longer!
I do not always bring myself up in comments, but I do sometimes when it will illustrate my point. It’s fine if you don’t like that, but I personally like to read comments when people have something to say about themselves that relates to the topic. I’m assuming that to you all those who say on one of the slim women posts ‘my body is basically just like hers’ or ‘I’m a size 2 and I look way smaller than her’ are fine, but if I say I have big boobs that might look like that in the same swimsuit then you have a problem with it? That’s ridiculous!
Admit it, you don’t like the fact that I’m big and not ashamed of myself! It’s very easy to see through you and your bigotry.
Hi Erica. I’m really sorrry to hear that you feel this way. I have on one instance agreed with Anastasia about something she said to you, but it was more because although Anastasia’s opinion about Christina Hendricks was kind of harsh, I’ve seen on more than one occassion that you (and a few other posters) almost always comment on comments such as that, berating the people who say slightly harsh things, and saying things like what you said here to Anastasia —>
“its perfectly okay to make negative comments about someone you don’t find attractive – it’s the venom and immaturity behind your comments that makes it intolerable. We get it, you don’t think she’s beautiful at all – but ‘rolls rolls everywhere’ and ‘puffy overrated marshmallow’ are just immensely callous and childish ways to express your distaste.’
I just find it kind of annoying that she cant say what she wants to say without people almost SCOLDING her. I mean, sure, I don’t necessarily agree with what she said, but I wouldn’t give her such a long lecture. If she said something towards you or another poster specifically, then yeah, that would warrant some lecturing, but a comment made about the celeb itself should be allowed by anyone without others constantly chiding them about it.
And I think the reason people say things to you more than other posters, is because a. you post a lot and b. sometimes your posts come across as being sort of preachy which can be annoying for people to read.
Ofcourse, a lot more of your comments are great and make a lot of sense! Again, you are allowed to say what you want as well, but I just wanted to let you know why people probably seem to be ‘attacking’ you more than anyone else, but I really hope tha doesn’t stop you from commenting, because really, who cares what some anonymous people behind a computer godknowswhere have to say about you! You’re having a good time discussing things on here, and majority of the people on here seem to like your comments.
@ Kruel Intentions – I understand what you are saying and I appreciate you explaining it to me. I know I can come across as preachy and I have been commenting a bit too much lately (I’ve been home sick!) and I should stay out of it when I’m offended by someone’s comments – believe me, I’ve learned a lesson now! I don’t want to stop people from saying what they want to say, I just want to remind people that name calling and incredibly negative comments can and do hurt peoples feelings if they look like the person being criticised. But you’re right, it’s not up to me to tell someone how to comment and I’m not going to do it any more – the nastiness that gets directed at me personally is not worth it! I don’t know if you have read Anastasia’s comments on other posts but they were all of similar cruelness – if it had been the first time I had seen such a comment I would not have written what I did.
But I still don’t quite understand why I have been singled out. edith the elf and other commenters have also made similar comments to anastasia and the like both on this thread and others and have not had such personal attacks as I have had. If you look at the post on Anja Rubik my comment along got jumped on for saying what many others said – that she would look better with a bit more weight. Sometimes I just feel that I am singled out because overall these commenters don’t agree with my viewpoint and especially dislike my preference for ‘softer’ women. If it was really just about me being preachy sometimes or reactionary then I can think of several other posters on here who are similar, but don’t have the same preferences that I do and don’t identify themselves as a plus sized woman.
I appreciate your opinion and thanks for replying to me! You seem to have a very balanced view and are not as sensitive as me – good on you!
I totally agree with kruel intentions. Not everybody has to be reprimanded for every snotty or rude thing they say. I guarantee celebs don’t read these posts. I am not being rude btw. I just think that was good constructive criticism.
hahahaha u crack me up! and i agree she doesnt look good at all
Agree with everything you said Kruel Intentions. Also, I never personally attacked erica until this last post and only because she got on my nerves since she feels that she has to comment on absolutely everything, which is fine, but don’t get all upset when you get called on it. Otherwise I have never said a word to her and don’t care to. All I told her in essence was to mind her own business. I don’t think that’s asking a lot. No one is name calling….. except her.
@ Erica, please dont stop commenting on this website, i like that you have a different voice from most commenters. never hear a cuss word whatsoever
and why you are picked on. well sometimes i read your posts. and i feel like you defend softer/bigger women. but you call thin women harsh looking a lot. and i think thats not very nice thing to say. i dont think it comes from a bad place.
but maybe you get attacked because it seems like you can be (unintentionally) mean towards thin women. and if you ad that up with defending plus beauties it feels like there is ”this side” of the camp and there is ”the other side” which is bound to make people react to your comments.
I hate that. Plus size women standing for themselves by putting thin women down. It is so ouble standard an immature.
So if you’re chubby it’s fine to make mean comments about thing girls? But God forbids a thin gal says anything about a chubby girl.
So sick and tired of that.
An I’m sorry if this offends anyone. But I just don’t buy the the “I’m overweight and proudof myself”.
I agree , it’s the corsets that make people think she has an hourglass figure. She is more of an apple. Only her arms are slim, the rest of her is big. She isn’t that much smaller than the Plus sized model posted up on this site last week. I really don’t get the appeal at all. She has big boobs and that is about it. I don’t think she is pretty either, just like many regular women you see in Walmart.
Well at least she didn’t choose to wear a bikini. That would have eliminated her entire male fanbase like a domino effect. I have an image of what she would look like in one and I’d rather not even go there.. lol.
Oh but of course hollywood says she’s attractive because she’s ”Curvy”– how about they get a reality check already! she’s heavy and long passed the point of curvy ages ago. Calling her curvy and desirable is such a joke.
Oh shut up! You think that men can’t live with a little softness around the middle? She doesn’t have a gut, it’s not her shape.
Ok I’m 34-24-34 and I honestly feel like 95% of the women that come to this site are overweight, or non athletic in the least bit, insecure, ignorant, and band together to make themselves feel better about looking in the mirror. It’s both pathetic and humorous. Skinny, beautiful, young, fresh girls against overweight, unsightly, used up, old gals.
Oh wow, you’re that lucky 5% huh. And we are, of course, all beneath you physically. Well, 95% of us. Lucky me that I’m also in that 5% category or I’d feel horrible about myself!
Jade-lol for someone so upset by her comment, you sure are quick to affirm that you yourself fall in that 5%. removed by admin*
Oh and those measurements you gave were um, fascinating? And oh so true I’m sure. Thanks for sharing your unwanted info with us!
Sam, it won’t let me respond to your comment. But you clearly can’t detect sarcasm can you. I think chi’s whole entire comment was idiotic.
@ Sam, people here know you as Anastasia. Kindly pick one username and stick with it.
I would if you stopped blocking my comments whenever you see the name Anastasia.
oh versus I wish I could have liked this comment- about a hundred times over!!
And I feel, Chi, that you are most clearly a troll. Making sweeping and ignorant generalisations for the purpose of disrupting conversation and annoying people makes you fit the definition perfectly.
You can “feel” that way all you want. Some of us are athletic and fit. I would rather see some body shape diversity on here than look at the same shapes. How boring would that be?
And I would be careful with your “unsightly, used up, old gals” comment. You WILL end up that way sooner or later, and judging by your comments, it may be sooner than you think.
Wow Chi now THAT was a stupid comment. Whatever, you are clearly on here only to see if anyone will get a rise out of your inane comments…maybe you should try one of those gossip tabloidy websites, because most of the posters on here have actual discussions!!
Now, you say something I agree with
Hahaha
I know a good anger management class you can take.
*reaches for a glass of ginger beer and waits for the vitriol to spew*
Annoying how you can’t give your own personal honest opinion without getting some annoying “Why don’t you post YOUR picture” response isn’t it. Exactly why I don’t miss coming to these kinds of sites…decided to randomly drop in though out of boredom.
What the is with all of these people? Anastasia has the right to express her opinion however she wants. If you guys dissagree, then why are you taking it so seriously? If she were talking about how “skinny” and “unhealthy” someone looked and told her to “eat something” everyone would be okay with it.
I have been on both sides! Yes, it really hurt my feelings when people would make “fat” comments but it hurt just as much, or maybe even more when people called me “too skinny” or “disgusting and unhealthy”.
Ugh. I don’t know what i am trying to say but its bullshit that Anastasia gets jumped everytime she makes a comment about the “curvy” (FAT!!) icons.
Yes she has thee right to express her opinion but everyone else also has the right to tell her how damn offensive and stupid she is. Freedom of speech is not freedom from the consequences of what you say.
edith, you rock!
i agree with that.
Aww, thanks guys
Thanks edith – you said that very well indeed!
I’m replying to this comment because there’s no reply button on your other post. i really hope you don’t let negative people stop you from coming here. I always enjoy your comments and can’t remember disagreeing with any of them. we need more positivity around here or the negative people will take over!!
honestly it is unfair how Anastasia comments are being removed but not some other ppl.
Removed by admin*
The reason Anastasia’s (and Chi’s) comments were removed is because she was name calling and being unnecessarily personal and offensive. No one else was doing that, which is why no one else’s comments were removed.
Erica’s comments never get removed because they are never offensive. She explains her feelings in a well-considered and diplomatic way. You could learn something from her.
Also, find me one instance where Erica has “started all the drama”…
Well edith said it well (thanks!), but seeing as I seem to (again) be the target for a juvenile playground bully group, I feel I should defend myself too.
How am I a trouble maker? Because I object to people calling others cruel names? Or because I express an opinion that is not held by you and some of the others who continue to attack me? Several others on here hold similar opinions to mine and call out those who use offensive language – yet I seem to be the one who gets the personal flak. If you could explain the reason behind that to me in logical terms, then I will gladly look at my comments and see where I’m going wrong to cause this personal animosity.
The reason my comments don’t get removed is that I express myself without bullying others and I don’t use name calling. Anastasia and Chi have been moderated because they use offensive language and are behaving like bullies. If I was just the same I would be in moderation too. If you have a problem with the rules of moderation here and truly feel that my comments should be removed then you need to talk to the wonderful lady who runs this site!
@ N_S
exactly.
it’s funny how other people can use curses directed at me, but I’m the one who’s being moderated……
I don’t think this is such a great swimsuit for her. I would have chosen like a purple wrap swimsuit that maybe didn’t cut so high up on the thigh and had some bustier/underwire support in the chest. I don’t really like her figure, I guess I just don’t see her as truly curvy. I’d think someone like Kelly Brook would really be curvy, whereas Christina is more just topheavy. I don’t really see a defined waist on her.
She’s kinda bottom heavy too. I wonder what kind of body shape she is.. Her shoulders are kind of narrow.. Hm, maybe she’s a skittle?
or possibly like JLH- sort of a pear/hourglass mix?
Yes, she could be that too
I’ve seen her at lower weights and she looks more hourglassy. I think as she got heavier her body became more pear/cello.
She’s a cello.
Maybe she just went for a swim suit that is comfortable, I mean, those boobs must require a lot of support, every day, every outfit, must be nice to get rid of the underwire now and then. But then, I am speaking as a total bra-phobic
hate to wear bras, am only an a-b cup and I pretty much skip them every day. Naughty, naughty, I know, but hey I always say if they start to lose their perk I will wear bras, untill then, no thanks. lol.
Agree about purple, would have looked nicer than black. I am pale also and rarely wear black, its not the best on us pale girls.
oh I actually like black on pale skins! its like white on dark skins- I just love the contrast. but i think these photos are very grainy and have a grey tone that isn’t flattering. on the other hand I’ve never loved black for swimwear, I like bright colours and patterns as they make me feel bright and summery- of course my country is very grey so need all the help i can get
Agreed about bras! I´m the same as you, lol!
@Lila haha good to know I’m not alone
@ amazon, I guess I just dont like the contrast so much when I wear black, makes me feel a bit self conscious of looking “sick” (you know how some people think pale = sick, skinny = sick)
i might have been a little biased here- i come from a family of blondes and redheads, and I like that over all contrast. granted when i see people like anne hathaway with dark hair and pale skin I do often think black is not the way to go.
I find her body quite unique. Shes soo curvy, but her face and arms are very thin in comparison. Shes not my ideal but theres no denying shes a beauty.
That is one BIG mama!!!
I’m sorry, but I find nothing about these pictures or her figure appealing at all.
This woman is not “curvy” or an “hourglass” or anything like that She is overweight.
Agreed. I think she has a very pretty face and skin, but it really puzzles me how people look at her as the perfect example of curvy. Anyone can be “curvy” with a corset on. She just looks plump.
I agree too. Overeating and over-consuming is nothing to be celebrated. She may be unhealthy because of her weight. Not to mention, eating more than your fair share puts additional strain on the planet (not that many people ever think of that or care).
You know thin people can over-eat and over-consume, too, right? You can’t judge someone’s eating habits based on their size.
Also, I think there are two meanings of curvy: 1) to have a defined WHR, like a curve in your waist; 2) to be voluptuous and fleshy with curves all over your body. Obviously Christina fits the second definition and I think she looks beautiful.
Oh trust me i know thin people can over eat too. But you can’t tell so you cant judge them for it. However i can see that she overeats which is why i said that. Some people are heavy bc they are on certain meeds or have certain illnesses but generally heavy people are heavy bc they over eat. Like I said, over eating is bad for her and bad for the planet.
I know that I eat too much with respect to what is really necessary to me, but this is a pleasure for me, I am also somewhat overweight (but I’m not obese) and I’m endangering the planet !! lol
Please let ourselves live !
did you ever think of not judging people for what they eat?
“But you can’t tell so you cant judge them for it” – why do you need to judge other people?
Also, lots of overweight people don’t overeat, so your rule for how to judge people is a bit silly.
Just putting my two cents in; thin people can overeat as well. However, as their metabolism and body type allows them these types of exesses, why not enjoy them from time to time? Please note I’m not saying that if you’re thin, it’s alright to eat like a pig. Being thin does not make you immune to cardiovascular disease. However, if you gain weight easily you should be more careful. And despite that the pro-curvy movement likes to throw many medical explanations for obesity, most fat people are just fat because they ate too much and exercised too little.
PS: I do not agree with your second definition of curvy.
Tasje – whilst you might not agree with the definition, you must agree that many people use the word in such a context, so the definition is still correct as far as common usage goes.
Edith the elf. I notice how you say “Christina looks beautiful” and that is your opinion. But then you don’t respect others opinions when they don’t agree with you? you always have to be right and talk people down Not everyone has to agree with you you should also respect others opinions the way you expect us to respect your opinion.
you act like you know it all.
Of course that is my opinion and I haven’t challenged anyone who has a different opinion. I have challenged people who have been rude and offensive and made uncalled-for comments. I will continue to challenge those people.
If someone wants their opinion to be respected, they should present it in a respectful way. At all times I have been respectful on SvC, except when someone else disrespects me without reason.
The important point here is that a lot of people disagree with me, and that is fine. I don’t care if people have different opinions. But I do care when people are nasty and offensive to each other, like they have been on this board. And I will challenge those people accordingly. I am not going to apologise for that.
Is this all you do? Sit on this webstie and reply to people? Literally you and Erica are in EVERY post. Seriously go outside or something.
Chi, yes, that’s *all* I do. Sit on this website. I never leave the house or interact with real people.
With all due respect (i.e. none), you’re removed by admin* because you actually know nothing about me or my life. But yep, continue to think what you like.
she’s beautiful, the swimsuit isn’t. Pale pride
I don’t want to sound rude, but if she gains more weight, she will endanger her health.
What I find strange, however, is how her face looks angular, like she is thinner than she actually is. Lucky girl. I am 115 pounds and my face looks like a doughboy’s.
I know how you feel. It’s so annoying how some people have gorgeous faces even when they are a bit overweight, whereas I seem to gain all my weight straight into my cheeks and my face ends up looking like a pancake even when I’m still well within the normal weight range.
same here! my mum always cheers me up by saying that if those people were ever to lose weight their faces would look horribly haggard! although christina looks so good that she is genuinely one overweight girl who I wouldn’t mind swapping bodies with.
I’m kind of sad about this. Its like I’ve been lied to; her body isn’t nearly as hot as I thought it was. She’s pretty much borderline overweight, except she can afford a decent stylist and stuff to squeeze her body into shape, ugh.
But is she borderline overweight? One the dresses that she wears on Mad Men was auctioned off, and the measurements were 39-30-39…a square size 10. A size 10 most likely would not put some who’s 5’8″ into the overweight category.
I also think she’s borderline overweight, not fat though but not slim. Her frame isn’t large and she isn’t muscular so she’s Rubenesque. That’s the word I think. I wouldn’t call her chubby, it has a juvenile connotation that is at odds with her figure.
I’m also 5’8″. The ideal weight for women our height is between 131-164 lbs. She looks about 160-170ish, hints the “borderline” comment.
Zunika, I agree with your assessment of her weight. But I just want to clarify to the commenters above that being borderline overweight is actually associated with increased health, not decreased health (http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-01-25/science/28374891_1_heart-disease-poor-diet-balanced-diet)
Its an interesting article, I do find a lot of overweight elderly do live longer. I don’t think its associated with increased health though. I think it might have to do with the fact that heavier people are usually monitored more for health conditions.
Possibly this is true. Possibly also that a lot of fatal diseases cause you to lose weight (cancer, etc) so if you are slightly bigger to begin with, you might have more body to fight back with, if that makes sense.
Hmm didn’t think about that. Good point. I like how Chi tried to “contribute” to the conversation lol. Creepin…

Wow sure makes you realize how much yhey photoshop her pictures. She is not curvy she is overweight.
versus….whats her body shape???
I believe she is a cello shape. Cellos are like wider hourglasses, with big boobs, wide hips, but not such a small waist. They have slimmer arms, slim calves and thick thighs and they can also have some tummy.
not curvy more like free willy
Ha! oh God I thought the same thing. I’m such a b*stard– she’s not even that heavy, but the combination of her pale skin, black swim suit and ”plump” body made my mind go directly to ”Orca” all of a sudden.
Now was that really necessary? How immature…
Your comment is bitchy, cruel and unnecessary. Go and be a bully somewhere else.
How can he/she be a bully? it’s not like Christina Hendricks in here reading these comments.
And I am sure if somene said something mean about Leanne Rimes you would probably laugh at it.
You can be bullying to someone without them being there. Also, by saying nasty things about Christina’s body, it is also insulting and potentially upsetting anyone who reads them who has a body like Christina.
I would never, and have never, laughed at a mean comment about a skinny person – Leann Rimes or otherwise. I have a problem with people body policing and being nasty about all shapes and sizes. If you had read my comments on other posts you would see this.
sshe looks like a frumpy 50 yo in a swim suit…her boobs are basically fat boobs so they dont count
You don’t need to be rude.
“her boobs are basically fat boobs so they dont count” what does that even mean? Are we counting breasts here? I’m confused.
It’s a rude way to put it, but it’s kinda true. Her breasts are only as big as they are because she is overweight, not because they are naturally big. I put on a bunch of weight a few years ago and had D cup boobs, but I didn’t like them or look at them as attractive because they weren’t supposed to be like that. I lost all the weight and have large A cup now, which look so much better then having two big balloons of unnatural fat protruding from my chest.
big boobs on a fat girl are like abs on a really skinny guy….not an achievement…i’ve seen pics of christina when she was slimmer and her boobs were no where near as big therefore most of them are fat not breast tissue..
when ARE boobs an achievement?
LOL @ Violet – I totes agree.
@ maddie.
If you’ve ever seen the playboy spread she did a few years ago, she is a lot thinner and her boobs are sooo small. The only reason her chest is so large now is because she’s gained a lot of weight. Big boobs only look nice/stand out when the rest of the body is somewhat thin, (i.e kate Upton, marissa miller,) just like a bubble butt/larger butt looks nice when the girl in question is thin/toned. If a girl is fat and has big boobs and a big ass…… big deal no surprise there, and it just doesn’t look nice anymore, cause you could tell that the only reason that person has big boobs/ass is because they are fat all over.
not really. not all overweight people have huge boobs. i actually know a few girls who weigh over 200 and really don’t have much of a chest at all. and its really rude and uppity sounding to say a person doesn’t look good if they are bigger because it is just fat all over. its like saying a skinny person looks horrible cus its just bones all over.
“Her boobs are basically fat boobs so they don’t count.”
Really??? So I guess breasts don’t count because they are fat. That’s brilliant.
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHHah
I think she has a lovely face and I love her red hair and pale complexion, but I think her massive chest distracts from the fact that she is really quite pretty. I know her breasts are partly to thank for her fame, and I think she looks smashing in character as Joan, but IMO hers is really a figure that works better in silhouette than in a swimsuit.
Got Milk?
She is bigger that I imagined.
Christina looks great, her arms look so thin compared to her chest.
Also, those are some glorious breasts!
She is certainly not the hourglass everyone claims her to be. I can’t help but think she looks like a grandma when she’s not all glammed up for an awards ceremony.
I guess if you re living in Hollywood and somewhere in your 30s you have to spent these perverse amount of money for you body as Demi Moore did if you don t want to be called a grandma.
No…there are plenty of natural 30 somethings in Hollywood that don’t look like grandmas…i simply said she gives off a grandma vibe when she isn’t all dolled up due to her figure and the clothes she wears. I never suggested being in your 30′s makes you old, as you seem to have interpreted my comment.
I think she looks like a grandma to, not the sex symbol some people make her out to be.
Not really the grandma cause her skin is so nice, but totally like aunt imo
Yeah.. team Christina!! I rather see woman look like her, with her body, than a fifty something Trying too hard to compete with twenty year olds. Natural curves look better.
I respect your opinion but I personally disagree,
Being overweight is a health hazard! I do not see “natural curves”. She only has curves because she is stuffed into tight dresses.
Being healthy is not trying to “compete with 20-year olds”.
End of my rant.
Being overweight isn’t a health hazard. I posted below a link to some research which actually shows the opposite: http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-01-25/science/28374891_1_heart-disease-poor-diet-balanced-diet
Thanks for the article, but if being overweight is not a serious problem in America, then how come the Obamas are trying to change the school lunch system to a healthier one with fewer calories? How come Michelle Obama is advocating an active lifestyle? Ever watched Supersize Me? Eating an unhealthy diet led to weight gain, which led to deteriorating health.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean to sound aggressive or mean in the slightest.
There is a difference between being overweight and obese. There are less problems with being slightly overweight than there is to be obese. Overweight can quickly turn into obese which is why there are so many efforts to introduce children to healthier lifestyles now instead of letting them continuously gain weight until they are obese
As Tasha has mentioned, there is a difference between obesity and being overweight.
Also, I think a problem for all people, regardless of weight, is that they do not eat healthy food. Food today is highly processed and not nutritional anymore. This is a problem and causes health issues for all people of all weights. I think this is what the Obamas are targeting with their plans.
Okay edith what this article actually says is that being SLIGHTLY oerweight isn’t a health hazard and that being obese and EXCESSIVELY trying to lose weight can be dangerous, Moreover, there will always be some scientists that have done research that goes against the grain but that doesn’t mean that we should take it to be the ultimate truth. The blatant truth is that being overweight, especially obese, poses health risks if not limitations on people’s activities. I don’t understand how people can ignore this. The correlation between an increasingly sedentary society with high calorie/sugar/salt diets and growing weights in obesity are no coincidence.
Yes, I understood the article. But being sedentary and eating crap poses risks for health – that is true regardless of weight. Thin people who don’t exercise and who eat shit are going to be just as unhealthy as their overweight counterpart who behave exactly the same.
Agreed, however the likelihood of eating excess crap all day, sitting on your butt and staying slim is unlikely. Moreover, excess weight (as in excess fat) also poses health risks, especially in cases of extreme obesity. Being underweight is majorly caused by other unhealthy eating habits and brings about different issues with health.
Can someone please tell me what saddlebags are?
saddlebags are like flabby parts on the outer thigh, like in the hip region…at least this is how I’ve always understood it.
a bit below the hip region, I’ve always thought.
If you look at my thighs, you’ll see saddlebags–they are just genetic fat sticking off of the thigh. you can only tell in the left one in the picture. i’m really in shape and it’s just how my body is built (i have them even when my BMI is 20 or under). as you get heavier, they get bigger and bigger. i’m of mediterranean descent and have a big butt–both seem like a factor in saddlebags?
http://www.4freeimagehost.com/show.php?i=c96be545176c.jpg
You look great, i honestly see no saddlebags!
why are my comments being moderated?
I can’t remember what each visitor who is in moderation did in order for me to place them there, sorry, but it must have been something
I have 5 comments since having registered so yeah… thanks. What can i say.
When you registered is irrelevant. You (or Cristina) have been commenting from the same computer since 2010.
I am actually commenting over here since way longer. I used to comment as uma, then left for a while, then started commenting as Cristina. I now decided to register and did so with this nickname, because there were other Cristina’s here. My first comments were not moderated, then all of a sudden they were. That is why i asked this question. So, will you please stop treating me like a criminal? I am probably one of the oldest members to keep coming back to your site, so at least for that give me some credit.
Uma, I found some of your comments from the past:
‘i’m used to idiot bitches like you thrashing me for nothing.Sol have fun you c***s, i’m out of here, sick of you ignorant a******s.’
‘F**K OFFF!!!!!! i hope your mother or your child kills herself. Than you can understand what you said. Ignorant bastard!’
I will not justify any further why I have placed you in moderation.
Way to take out of context something that happened 3 years ago or something. And i repeat, i kept posting and i was not moderated and now i am. I registered, posted,not moderated , now i am. So yes, way to show respect for your readers when they are not praising you (because when i did that, as i still think this is an absolutely amazing site, i was fine, now i am a bitch or something for asking ONE simple question). Look, i am a lawyer, i will not sit in a corner while you take me for stupid and treat me like some horrible person for wanting to know what i did wrong NOW. Not 2-3 years ago when i was horribly bullied on the site you run. Amazing how you can turn this around and against me to justify an action that has actually no justification and to point as cause something that has nothing to do with the present situation. Have you answered me without patronizing and without further treating me like a scum, i would have left it that way. But i am sorry, i take no disrespect from anyone, not even a person that has shown me enough reasons to win my admiration (or maybe, especially from not such a person). I assume you are intelligent enough to understand the purpose of this post and will not only extract the negative from it. And i especially hope you are a person who can accept criticism if said criticism is worded in a non-offensive manner. Or it has at least some basis to be made.
WTF? How did VS treat you like a scum? Are you for real? I think you are delusional a bit. You asked a question and she answered it. lol, girl, chill!
Uma, I run a website too, and if someone would have commented like in the examples Vers showed, REGARDLESS of the context / bullying, you would be banned forever. Not moderated, banned.
Uma, the way you blame the admin for the moderating-now, why-not-then issue shows that you don’t have any technical knowledge (not knowing moderation actually works in WordPress). I could explain, but it would take a lot of time.
Why are you calling yourself stupid, patronized at, scum and disrespected???? Versus didn’t say or do any of those things, hahahahahaaa.
Waaaaaaaaayyyy exxagerated.
Just wanted to add: I can’t think of any “context” in which saying you hope someone’s mother or child commits suicide could ever be appropriate. Like actually…even if that is “taken out of context”, what context would have made that an okay thing to say???!
But the thing is, it doesn’t look bad on you! Am I crazy for thinking it looks good!? And wow, awesome legs.
Your hips/legs are shaped just like mine. I have a full butt too. And I am about 5 lbs underweight – it’s definitely genetics, whether you have meat there or not.
you look great! I looked at the term because I didn’t know what it ment. There’s no saddlebags at all that the shape of legs which are skinny.
I get what you mean you can be thin but have sth of extra fat, I’m thin but I have love handles because everything goes to my hips or tummy in order to have no lovehandles at all i would have to be underweight and it’s impossible because I enjoy food
That’s exactly what you say. I have mediterranean blood too, from my father, and I have saddlebags whereas my mother doesn’t have. And mine are now much bigger than yours, as you explain, they got bigger with my weight gain
She looks bigger than I expected, but so do I every time I look in the mirror.
Most people look bigger in candids over photoshopped pictures
I don’t think her boobs are fake and I’m so tired of reading that comment over and over again. Her boobs look like a bigger version of my mom’s, whose breasts are definitely real.
She has the same type of body as my grandma…. but I think my grandma looks really good for 80!
At least she has a gorgeous face.
Well, I’m like a lot of the others here – she is bigger than I thought she was. If you have big boobs and you stuff them into a swimsuit (this one probably has cups or at least support in it) then they will look like that – mine do! Just because they look higher up and rounded doesn’t mean they are fake – it’s to do with the denseness of the breast, their natural shape and of course what you are squeezing them into. Everyone keeps mentioning the playboy pictures and how small her breasts were then. To me, they were not that small – they were unsupported in that bikini and not very perky, so they weren’t ‘pushing forward’ like usual. Sure, they were considerably smaller than they are now – but they were not A or even B cups then – I would say a small D. She’s put on quite a bit of weight since then and aged as well – it’s perfectly possible that her breasts tripled in size. It happens! Is it also possible they are fake – sure, you can never tell with 100% certainty!
I still see waist and curves – not just fatness. Yes, she is heavier than she appears in dresses, but I don’t think she is extremely overweight for her height and build. And don’t even the slimmest actresses use spanx etc to give themselves a more ideal shape?!
She reminds me a bit of Nigella Lawson – the famous hourglass ‘domestic Goddess’. I saw some pictures of her in a swimsuit recently and she’s not as hourglassy as you might expect because she’s not in a corset/spanx – but she’s still an hourglass. I’m an hourglass and I have a little belly in front and more cinched in sides to my waist – hourglasses with extra weight on them do not generally have flat stomachs like some pears do. If I wear a corset I look very, very hourglass – but in normal clothes I don’t look so dramatic – and that’s exactly what you’d expect. She could still be an hourglass and have a pooch and not be so dramatically nipped in as we are used to seeing her in clothes – she has the hips, bust and shoulders – but in these shots you can’t really see her waist front-on to see what definition there is, so it’s possible she’s more apple-shaped.
The black is not a good colour on someone so pale – I would have chosen a warmer colour for her. I guess she thought black would be slimming – but it’s not against a light background!
I still like her – she’s non-conformist with her fleshy ‘rubenesque’ body and very pale skin!
Great comment, Erica.
I agree–i recall we had a dialogue about the plight of the small d cup unsheathed looking much smaller around a b or c haha. A vastness only truly understood with proper support.
I admit I wanted to be surprised by how she looked, but wasn’t. Its well known she wears shapers for madmen. And I don’t think she looks terrible, she’s very solid. I feel the reason I don’t like fluvia’s body is there is no solidity, where as I can look at christina and see there’s some mass there. Its not all unstructured body mass. I don’t mean that rudely, she’s got a solid looking body for her size and frame, and looks better for it. She’s pretty lucky that way
You seriously have enough time to write this. Wow.
Wow, yet another person who personally attacks me because I don’t write what they want to read. You’re really original Chi – you obviously hate ‘fatties’ judging from your comment above and dislike me because ‘I am one’ – I get this quite a lot on here lately.
I’m getting really sick of this on this site. I’m starting to feel like this place is getting more and more rabidly pro-skinny types who like to express themselves with derogatory language and are intolerant of anyone trying to defend plus-sized women. I’m sick of people making personal judgements about me and hating me because I write long comments that are not to their taste or because I don’t conform to their viewpoint that all women who are anything but slim are ‘fatties’, ‘hippos’ or ‘puffy marsmallows’! You all need to grow up and try to see the world in a less black and white fashion!
If you don’t like my comments, don’t read them and for goodness sake don’t attack me personally – I don’t deserve it and it’s been happening too much lately!
@ erica
“if you don’t like my comments, don’t read them”
Removed by admin*, asking others to do what you yourself are not capable of doing.
you do have a point I saw her doing the exact same thing oh hypocrisy
Keep posting if you want to. Everyone’s entitled to their opinion.
A quick witted and intelligent person doesn’t need very long to come up with something to say, chi. Where as it may have taken you a few moments to decide how to properly phrase your badgering comments, I’m sure it doesn’t take erica long to respond at all. And by and by, may I ask how you have time to hold such a childish and superfluous grudge against erica? You’re surprised by the amount of imagined time it takes her to write a comment, and I myself am mystified by you’re ridiculous dedication to being such a bitch, when really you’re just a pariah.
And Chi, do you seriously have enough time to stalk and bully a poster you don’t even know?! I think YOU are the one who should get a life. I’m starting to feel a bit like Erica now: that i really like this site, but all this bashing and bullying lately ruins the site for me, and i haven’t come back as much as I used to. I always like to read Erica’s comments, and now some immature, insecure girls are ruining it for everyone.
Seriously, how can you insult Erica for having time to post a comment on the site? That is just ridiculous, almost laughable, and shows how much you’re looking to insult Erica, you couldn’t even find a legitimate reason.
Erica, i really hope you keep posting, even though i probably wouldn’t myself. Chi and Anastacia etc., what you need to understand is that people here are not upset that you express your opinions, they are upset with the way you do it (and btw, if you believe in freedom of speech this much it means that Erica should be allowed to express her opinion too, EVEN THOUGH its different than yours, and SHE is always polite about it).
Yes, Christina H is probably not reading this site and therefore the comments can’t hurt her, but we KNOW FOR A FACT that there are people reading this site who have EDs or are recovering, and YES, this probably isn’t the best site for girls who are insecure in any way, but some are here nonetheless, so would it kill you to be a little more considerate???
Stop namecalling and stop hating on “fatties”. Luckily I am secure enough myself to not feel bad of myself due to your comments, but maybe someone younger than me, or someone with an ED, will feel worse about themselves when you write stuff like this. So could you PLEASE think about this the next time you feel like making a similar comment. And agree to disagree with Erica, or just not comment on her comments (?!? I KNOW!) – unless she actually makes an insulting comment or namecalls – skinny or fat – which i have yet to see….make it a nice place to be for everyone. THANKS!
If she didn’t have those giant boobs her figure wouldn’t be so praised by the media. So pasty and un-toned
I don’t think “praised” is the right word, so much as scrutinised.
i hear a lot of praise for her in magazines and newspapers. but i think her lovely face and bottom curves that balance out her shape have something to do with it too.
I too hear a ton of praise for her figure. If the idea that she is so curvy and voluptuous wasn’t shoved down my throat, I would probably have a better opinion of her body. I see her as too doughy and as someone who over eats.
Just a side note: I was reading about BMI the other day and was surprised to read it’s junk science. Some very healthy people have “unhealthy” bmis and vice versa. The formula was created a few centuries ago and was tweaked so it would give out a reasonable sounding number but it doesn’t work when you use it to determine someone’s health. Basically BMI doesn’t mean anything.
where was the article? i’d be interested in reading it. as far as i understood it, its a guideline, not a set and implacable rule, but i’m defo curious about how it was decided upon.
Oops it was actually created in the 1800s. Sorry. The article i read was in a magazine but there is a ton of info about it online.
Here’s a link to a little experiment and BMI didn’t fare well.
http://www.thegreatfitnessexperiment.com/2008/02/bmi-bad-measurement-index.html
I wish more people would understand that BMI isn’t an accurate way to gauge a person’s health. It doesn’t take into account what is fat, bone or muscle. You could actually have too little body fat and you could come out as obese according to bmi due to muscle and bone density.
It was also based on those who live pretty sedentary lifestyles.So it assumes that you have low muscle mass which isn’t true for most people now.
that’s true becuase muscle is not taken into account (imagine somebody with huge muscles is overweight) and also frame is not taken into account you can be small, medium or large so somebody with a big frame and a build body is considered overweight
I agree Bunny I am also sick of hearing how “curvy” and what a “real women” she is and how she is this great sex symbol, when women half her size are getting called “fat” it is almost like she is untouchable. She really isn’t that special. I don’t understand how a woman so much slimmer than her can get called “fat” yet she is just “curvy”
And the way people make her out to be some unique beauty when she looks like a million soccer moms from the mid west you see everyday. Sofia Vegera is curvy to me. CH isn’t.
It is the right word. She’s on men’s magazines “sexy lists” and always called a bombshell in the media.
Yes, she is praised by some. But this is usually teamed with scrutiny. Scrutiny dooesn’t always have to be negative and the media do tend to champion CH as a curvy bombshell. But these articles are usually attacked by the body police commenters and fat-haters – as you are seeing in this thread. That’s what I meant by scrutiny.
Am I the only one who thinks she doesn’t look that big? I think she looks pretty similar to how she does in dresses and I also think she looks really good! Especially considering she’s lazing around by the pool in her private time, it’s a rarity to find somebody who looks perfect in those conditions.
And no, I’m not bias or jealous of skinny girls or anything of that sort. I’m 5’9″ and neither slim nor chubby at a size 10 UK (6 US).
I fully agree with you. Those pics are paparazzi’s, they are not photoshopped at all, and she appears to be gorgeous.
It’s funny how it’s all okay to go calling skinny girls “horrible looking, eat something hun!” but when there’s a bigger girl and someone says anything else but “omg so beautiful I wanna that” it’s just rude, jealous, horrible and whatever.. Yeah right.
Her figure isn’t to my taste. I don’t like it. Too thick to my taste. Not fat, but thick. I’m definitely glad I don’t have those breasts either. Must be horribly uncomfortable between them, sweaty, rubbing. Eugh! Of course, her happiness is the main thing when it comes to her body.
Well actually everytime I’ve ever said anything about a skinny girl (as in eat something, wow she’s way too skinny etc etc) on this site, I’ve been attacked. So I don’t think you’re allowed to really say anything without someone or the other on here berating you for it.
Well mew, the way you worded your dislike of Christina’s figure is perfectly acceptable and not liable to make anyone feel like sh*t! Some of the comments that are directed at both skinny and fat women on this site are just crude, cruel and mean-spirited. As far as I can tell they are the only comments that get berated – different opinions are great, but being offensive and bitchy isn’t!
And I do get tired of hearing that there is a bias against skinny women around here – I’ve seen just as many people jump on my back or others who make negative comments about skinny women as there are those that defend bigger women. So, I really don’t believe that there is some pro-fat, anti-skinny agenda on this site. But there are definitely quite a few commenters on here that will call someone out if they are being offensive – whether it’s to fat or thin women.
From personal experience, try not to put to heart. Heads up, ok?
You have lots of people supporting you over here, they matter, not others.
I agree with what Erica said below, everyone’s perspective on the matter is different. While some will be harsh towards skinnier girls, others will be harsh towards the thicker ones. I think it makes no sense to say “eat something” because some people have a fast metabolism & they can’t help being THAT skinny. Others, lose weight when they are stressed. There are certain things about our bodies that at times we cannot control. The same goes to “bigger” women…Some have thyroid problems, etc.
I think this site was created to help women realize that beauty comes in ALL SHAPES AND SIZES
& if all women could perhaps see that, understand it, & embrace it, then there would be no need for hostility. Because the thing is (aside from loving your self and body for who you are) men fall for whichever silhouette they find appealing. They DO NOT fall FOR THE SIZE OF YOUR JEANS…but rather the way in which you look in those jeans.
& on another note: If you talk about bigger boobs with such negativity, I believe that, more often than not, DEEP down inside, you WISH yours were that big. A secure woman embraces & feels no need to degrade someone else’s shape in the tone with which you “degraded” her breast. I say that with no disrespect.
Without the photoshop, her corsets and her makeup/glam she really is nothing special.
Just another larger women.. She reminds me a gandma too.
She reminds you a grandma, but my boyfriend likes her, of course when wearing glamour dresses but also this swimsuit, and my boyfriend is 28!
Yep, it’s great that she’s not another emaciated actress. But she also doesn’t look particularly healthy; she doesn’t look like she exercises much. Not saying shes not pretty, and not saying she’s not worthy of my boyfriend’s admiration of her photos in the grocery-store magazine isle, but I think moderation should be celebrated, not one extreme or the other.
I don’t get why most people say they can’t see her WHR curves.
In the second picture where she’s pulling whatever it is on I can clearly see a difference moving from her waist to her hips. I’m African and we are curvy as hell and we know it when we see it. She may not be slim but she’s curvy.
I don’t understand how people can’t see that she’s an hourglass in these pics either. t is blatant to me. She’s bigger but you can still see the shape.
Versus why can’t I reply to some comment on here? There are multiple ignorant, frankly stupid comments on here I need to reply to. It’s lame you run a comment site when your members can’t even reply to everything.
Probably because for some reason you refuse to phrase your questions or comments in a polite and intelligent way. Name calling and bullying aren’t attractive and have no place on this comment forum.
Wow, I’ve just seen this thread today and I feel slapped just by reading some of these posts.
edith, I agree with what you are saying about chi and the other rude chicks on here but I think it best that you stop replying to all their comments. It just gives them ammunision for more drama and spite and also, tbh, they do have a right to comment without being called out on all the time just like Erica does as well.
On the one hand, yes she seems bigger than what she looks like on Mad Men. I love that show and i like her there, she suits her role perfectly. On the other hand, to people saying she has no waist, these pics are not the most flattering. Here is another one from the same bunch as these ones: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/05/28/article-0-0C4EB66400000578-690_634x429.jpg
She may not be your cup of tea, but no waist, really?
Thanks for the photo uma! I was wondering what her waist looked like. She’s definitely an hourglass – or cello as Versus has more accurately said. I think she has a nice shape and is definitely curvy despite what some on here have said.
I think some people think an hourglass should never gain on their waist but could you imagine those hips with a 24 inch waist? so yeah I agree she still has a shape and proportionally small waist, just at certain angles it gets obscured.
I’m actually a little intrigued by the Mad Men thing, cos she does look soooo much skinnier on Mad Men (big fan too
). I know there can be flattering lighting, some ps and so on, but do they actually change people’s size.
I think maybe in shots where she is alone, she looks bigger, cos that’s sorta how her body comes off, but when you see her next to others, you can see that she is quite tiny, compared to what she looks like.
Next to the other girls at the MM office she doesn’t look big (except butt and boobs, maybe
), and she is tiny when she is standing next to the men. I see an overweight woman in this beach shot, but i don’t see that AT ALL on the show… weird…
And good picture. No matter if you think she is ugly or pretty, she is definitely curvy – in an senses of the word (boobs and butt + whr).
plus size model might be her next careerstep
i dont think it looks good on her she has a lovely small face. i think extra weight is cute on people with ”big” heads. no offense :p as a fellow tiny headian i fear extra weight gravely
i think naturally she had a lot of breast tissue and big boobs and went up a cup size or so with an implant…if you have a lot of tissue to begin with breast implants can look very natural….
real big booobs or not, they are WAYYYYYYY to big for my taste…when i look at theese pics i dont think “ouu i want a big chest” it actually makes me being praoud of my bcup,,thank god….by the way im not a hater, im a fan of her beauty but its to mutch…(the boobs) and why does she always have to show them off?
Couldn’t agree more, Melizza! It looks like she has an ass on her chest…and while I’ve always wanted a bit more boobage than what I got (small B), I’d rather have mine than hers.
And, while I’m a fan of “healthier” models and more “real” body types….she is too big…she IS overweight…sorry folks…not hating…just stating.
She does have a beautiful skin tone, hair and eyes but sorry her body is way more than JUST voluptuous.
Hollywood has this thing about Fat + Pretty = Healthy….it’s just not right. Being overweight…even if it mostly goes to your boobies and THEN the rest of your body AND you have a pretty face and gorgeous skin….it’s still being overweight and that’s NOT healthy.
PS I have not EVER heard a nice comment about HER from a man…about her boobs, yes, but that`s it.
Just stop it. Versus, this comment should be moderated and so should the commenter.
Why should the comment and the visitor be moderated? I don’t see the problem.
Good grief with tattling. Why not let Versus notice comments that need to be moderated? If the person is a repeat offender, they will get moderated eventually. This isn’t the playground and we don’t need to run and tattle. Ignore comments that bother you. Don’t give them any attention.
I don’t see the problem either. You may not like what JN1976 says but she hasn’t exactly been rude about it; just very blunt. I can see that there is a lot of bitchiness going on on this thread but I don’t this comment is part of it at all.
why are people attacking one another? i don’t know if i’m going to keep visiting this site if you can’t express your opinions and still be polite about someone.
I agree. The personal attacks on Erica are particularly repulsive. It’s turned into some ridiculous playground bullying situation. It also makes me want to leave.
me too. after a while i get tired of trying to argue with someone who chooses to be negative. christina isn’t my body type but i won’t say ignorant comments about her body either. she has to work with what she’s got. and erica is a sweet woman who express her opinions without being rude. i may not agree with everything she says, same with everyone here, but i won’t be rude about it. it’s sad if you ask me.
Rubbish not one person has said anything personal to Erica, all they have done is call her out on her hypocrisy
I am sick of the pity party she gets. It’s one set of rules for her and another for the others. I have not seen one person make a personal attack on her. They are just pointing out how she does all the things she is complainaing about.
Um, yes that have. Actually two people above made personal insults directed at Erica’s weight, and they were deleted by admin.
Erica has also been insulted on previous threads in a very personal way.
Are you referring to me? LOL my comment that got deleted did not mention anything about erica’s looks or her weight. Did you even read my comment or are you making things up as you go along?
@ True
oh my god you took the words out of my mouth!!!!!! Seriously when did i say anything personal to erica or her looks? PEOPLE SHOW ME ONE COMMENT WHERE THIS IS TRUE. THe comment of mine that got deleted didn’t say one word regarding how erica looks.
Those boobs are real guys… can’t you tell? Those are real knockers!
I think with all the plastic surgery that goes on around us and in Hollywood, people have forgotten that REAL big boobs exist & what they look like lol…& that often times, they get bigger with weight gain. Some women think that breast STOP growing at a certain age, but don’t understand that it all depends on the distribution of adipose (fat) cells & that varies per woman. I can only imagine how things will be in the future lol
SPAM
I think it looks nice when a woman’s bottom half compliments her top half. I like her body because she’s got shape…and that makes the clothes more “interesting” (this is not to offend anyone who is really thin…beauty comes in all shapes and sizes)… I don’t think she should hide her hips…What for? It’s a part of who she is. Many women WISH they had her hips so it’s ironic…Women usually want what they don’t have lol
Anyhow, the only thing I don’t like is the color of her bathing suit.
Versus, I was wondering…is there such thing as a small cello? Meaning, would you have been able to tell Christina was a cello like 40-50lbs ago? Or do you go from a vase to a cello depending on where you gain the weight?
I guess sometimes shape does change when the size changes… and yes, I imagine that a small cello would become a vase with weight loss.
I’m amazed by some of the comments on here. I have never understood why so many people seem to be offended by her shape or her breasts.
While I wouldn’t want her figure, I see nothing wrong with how she looks. She has a nice shape and beautiful skin. I think her face is very pretty and I like her hair color.
While I understand that she might not be your preference, calling her names is ridiculous.
Kimberly, very well said.
She looks fine to me, little bit bigger than I thought but still looks better than me in a swimsuit!! lol
I won’t go as far as to criticize the opinions of others because we are all entitled to our own. However, it puzzles/confuses/shocks me how judgmental (& at times ignorant) some women can be. I read some comments about “why don’t you give it a rest?” in terms of her breast and how she should “hide” them once in a while!! WHY SHOULD SHE?! Maybe those are her favorite body part!! They look great!! They give her shape.
I know that the perception of beauty and the ideal female shape has a lot to do with culture and for that reason I am understanding/respectful and will not attack anyone on their views but…Here’s how I (and a lot; note: A LOT, not ALL…Hispanics view it)…
Curvy: a woman with curves in all the “right” places; ie. breast, hips, thighs…NOT belly or the sides of her belly.
Fat: Rolls of skin…belly bulge…and everything else big in addition. (Sometimes women who are skinny all over but gain most of the body fat on their belly are considered fat BECAUSE…belly fat is often perceived as being fat)
SOME WOMEN ARE big-boned & it is ridiculous to go by a BMI chart when most of your weight is due to the structure of your bones and not your actual body fat.
I too thought she might’ve been a bit smaller than she appears here. Still, she looks beautiful. I sometimes get a bit tired of seeing so much of her boobs (bc even with big breasts you can dress in a way that you don’t show 70 % of them, and i’ve seen her successfully do that) but, as it is a swimsuit, i don’t mind. It’s hard enough to find a piece you feel comfortable in (imo), let alone if you’d need to feel prudent about showing too much skin.
She is thicker than I thought, but she looks curvy to me. She has a beautiful face and an amazing skin, I just dislike when she has those “in your face” boobs on red carpets
wow, after reading all these comments and hostile words above, im actually embarrassed for my gender. and i thought men were cruel…
Women are always crueler towards other women than a man would ever be
@ elf.
When was I name calling erica? I admit, on this post I did tell her off, but other than that I mind my own business…..and by the number of people that agreed with me, it shows that it gets on people’s nerves to be scolded all the time by some random internet person. Seriously, show me another post of mine where I bullied erica or said anything nasty about her personally. I don’t like to interact with her at all, yet she always picks on me and my posts…why is that? She doesn’t agree with me, that’s fine but why does she have this burning need to always make it known???? Seriously, show me ONE post where I bullied erica in any way. The only person that is a bully is her. Not a post goes by where she doesn’t call someone either immature, cruel, or callous, or feel that it is absolutely necessary to voice her opinion.To me she is the only name caller here. The funny thing is then she becomes all defensive and begs people not to pick on her, even though she starts 99% of most fights I’ve seen on these threads. In this thread for example if erica hadn’t (as usual) given me a sermon on what to write, this little argument wouldn’t be happening right now…….So if you don’t want people telling you off, stop telling them what to think and write all the time, EVERY SINGLE TIME. It’s common sense. You say “show me one instance where erica has started drama” and I say…..how about this post right here!!!!! I never have once replied or scolded anyone on anything they have ever said, including erica, even when I disagree with a particular person, I don’t feel the need to do that. Saying the same old tired line of “your mean your mean” gets on people’s nerves, and eventually that person (me in this case) will tell you off.
Maybe it was Chi that was calling her names…anyway, your first comment directed at CH was unnecessarily inflammatory and definitely started the drama. Erica was responding to that in the way most people would. And based on that response she was calling names by either you or Chi, or both. The comments have been deleted now, I can’t remember.
Anyway, if you have issues with who is under moderation, I suggest you take it up with Versus. Calling someone immature or cruel, when associated with evidence (i.e. in the form of an immature or cruel comment) is NOT name calling. Calling someone a puffy marshmallow, or worse, IS name calling. There is a difference.
Basically your whole argument here is ridddled with inconsistencies, and what you’re saying about Erica could equally be applied to yourself. If you don’t want people to challenge you so constantly, stop making so many idiotic comments. Of course you have the freedom to say what you want, but everyone else has the freedom to challenge you and tell you when you’re being offensive. That’s all Erica was doing. And then you and Chi started making personal attacks. Erica had attacked your comment, not YOU. You and Chi attacked Erica as a person. That is the important difference, and the reason, I believe, why you are in moderation.
Anyway, to be honest, I actually don’t care anymore. I’m going to stop being all like this: http://xkcd.com/386/
Versus, can you explain why my comment is being moderated? Or are all the comments on this post now being moderated? Or was it to do with me mentioning your name? Sorry, just wanted to check if I’d breached any of your rules of conduct…? Thanks.
It’s because you mentioned my name, all comments that include Versus go to moderation, in case I need to answer questions.
Haha Edith, that was hilarious! I’m gonna save that one.
her breasts defy gravity ! I’m jealous
Hey versus, do you only moderate my comments on this site? Because the last two comments I posted were perfectable acceptable comments…and you know it. But I guess its okay for people like edith the elf to use words like idiot and bitchy….but when I used the exact same words, my comment disappears into thin air. I know you won’t post this one either, at least in order not to highlight your hypocrisy…..
There are a lot of visitors in moderation, not just you.
I have more tolerance towards the people who just replied to a mean comment than I have for the people who actually started the whole fight, obviously. And even so, ‘idiot’ was moderated.
Your last comments were not OK in my book, mostly because they just perpetuate the whole conflict and this is a post about Christina (and so many of your comments were NOT). It’s ENOUGH.
I do not deserve your insult at all.
Go versus!
She could do with losing 10-15 pounds, sure, but she’s no fatty. I think she’s just glorious, personally. She looks like she would feel wonderful to touch – and those eyes and lips! And that skin! She’s one of my favorites. There’s nothing wrong with a cello versus an hourglass. She’s no Kirstie Alley.
That body looks vulgar and out of shape, one should take pride in being curvy, I love having hips and boobs but not THAT big, her hips look like they measure 50 inches! She could lose about 15 lbs and still keep her curves,
She has great curves! I wish she would tone a little more, and her body would be just wow. Her top half is amazing, but the bottom half could use a little work.
Why do people keep saying she has fake boobs?
My mum’s boobs look exactly like this. I don’t think my mum had a transplant. Even though they’re not real. WHO CARES?
You people who keep saying they’re fake don’t mind when some skinny girl does a fake boob don’t ya?
Come with an open mind people! Geez, do you have to hate everything?!?! Comment something positive!
[...] To see pictures of Christina in a swimsuit, click here! [...]
She is definitely heavier than 154 pounds. I would guess at 5’8 she is more like 170-175. I still think she looks great though.
