36 year-old TV host Giuliana Rancic is trying to get pregnant – and her doctor, the media and the public all advise her to gain some weight in order to achieve her goal. Giuliana’s reply to them: ‘Rachel Zoe, Gisele, Kelly Ripa and Posh are super skinny and they managed to get pregnant!’ Details from Radar:

And when it comes to speculation that Giuliana is too thin to get pregnant, she scoffs and calls that talk “ignorant”, telling RadarOnline.com: “Look at Kelly Ripa! She’s half my size and has no body fat and has kids.

“Giselle (Bundchen) is a supermodel, and I’ve pinched her in real life just to see if she has body fat — zero body fat! Look at Victoria Beckham, she’s on her fourth child.

“It’s unbelievable to me the amount of ignorant comments that come in and it’s just uninformed ignorant people. Rachel Zoe is pregnant! To all the haters, get informed! Go Google it…it has nothing to do with anything.

“There are thin girls with infertility issues, normal sized girls with infertility issues and overweight girls with infertility issues. Unless your doctor tells you your weight is affecting you in some way…once the doctor rules it out, that’s really not it.”

Many of you loooove to find out celebrities’ weight and measurements: Well, Destiny’s Child and Strictly Come Dancing star Michelle Williams wants to share a little bit of  info with us:

My metabolism has changed. It burns food quicker these days. I’m 120 pounds, but yes, I’m too skinny. I’ve always been like that. Growing up, I was so skinny – I was always skinny, skinny, skinny. I’ve always wanted to be a little bigger, so now I’m eating lots of pasta and rice. I want to gain weight. I’d like to have a figure like Halle Berry’s.’

… says 30 year-old Michelle in a recent interview.

P.S.: 120 pounds and 5’9” translates to 54 kg and 175 cm.

On losing 20 pounds for her role as a ballerina:

“My mom freaked out. Everybody started panicking. She was like, ‘You have to promise me this isn’t going to affect you.’ I was like, ‘I promise it won’t, but it might take me a little time to be OK with having a little more fat on me.’”

On how being ultra-skinny looks in reality versus on camera:

“I could see why this industry is so f**ked up, because at 95 pounds, I would literally look at myself in the mirror and I was like, ‘Oh my God! I had no shape, no boobs, no a**… All you saw was bone. I was like, ‘This looks gross’. But in photographs and on film, it looked amazing…

“It took me five months to lose 20 pounds, but it took me just five days – days! – to gain it all back.“

Pictured: left, Mila in February 2010, while she was still filming and on the right, Mila these days. Can you see the 20 pound difference (keep in mind she gains more on her middle / upper half)?

Further info: Mila is 5’4” (her words) – she must have been around 95 pounds (BMI 16.3) on the left and around 115 lbs (BMI 19.7) on the right.

The quotes of the day come from Portia de Rossi , who opened up to Oprah about her troubled past and her battle with anorexia – here come the details from DailyMail:

‘I definitely had some pretty amazing willpower to get down to 82 pounds.

‘And that’s what I was holding on to. I didn’t think about anything else.’

Portia says of her mindset at the time, ‘i would prefer to die than fail another diet.’

The former ‘Ally McBeal’ and ‘Arrested Development’ star says she lived on 300 calories a day and hid it from her castmates and friends.

She also would take up to 20 laxatives a day.
