Girls Aloud’s Nadine Coyle Has Got Some Seriously Skinny Legs
March 9, 2010 in Nadine Coyle, Then and Now by Versus
Nadine Coyle from British pop band Girls Aloud always had skinny legs (she carries more weight on her middle and top areas) – but oh my, they are definitely at their skinniest right now (of course, the opaque black tights contribute to this effect).
Not that we can accurately compare (since we can’t really see her legs well), but here is Nadine in a bikini a year ago:
Check out an interesting story about her HERE!
And see one more after the jump!
Whoa. Seriosuly looks shopped. (I know it hasnt). That girl srsly needs to gain weight.
versus, what is her body type?
I think she is a goblet like Catherine Zeta Jones – broader shoulders, little waist definition, occasional tummy, super long and skinny legs, short torso, high waist, medium to large breasts, slim hips.
do you have an article on body types? (I’d like to know my own)

Thanks!!
Yes please. If there’s an article on body shapes, it’d be great to see it!
ouch! this is what I call painfully thin.
She is sure unhealthily skinnyyyyy…. Don’t tell me that I can;t know thisa, cause this can’t be healthy or normal. Is it true? Or photoshop? I don’t know. But if it’s true, she definitely needs some serious medical help. Opaque tights do show your legs skinnier, but these photos are disturbing….
I think she’s top heavy so I won’t make judgements until i see her top half (as it is now).
She definitely lost weight, but I don’t think it shows that much in her legs. Her thighs in the second picture already look very thin. Her upper body now seems to be very thin and due to that, her legs are skinny. I don’t think she’s underweight or dangerously skinny. At certain body types some parts of a body just appear to be very skinny, while other parts, which storage more bodyfat, are normally slim. Just like some thin pear shaped women appear to be underweight, because of a very skinny (sometimes “bony”) upper body and smart dressing on the lower body, where it looks bigger.
well…if i look at her hand, and bones because i can almost see her bones i think she might have a problem. i love skinny girls, but this is too much even for me.
These are definitely photoshopped.
I am a digital design professional and I know ‘shopping when I see it.
I don’t know if they were photoshopped or not, their source is Daily Mail.
Anyway, you guys should check this post as well, her legs always look very, very thin:

Her body is perfection and I love her clothes, I’m not a big fan of her sunglasses though.
I don’t think it’s perfection…
How can she even walk with thoses legs ?
There should literally be a law passed on photoshopping to misrepresent people’s public image in a negative or controversial way that the person in the photo did not intend or has not approved of. The media can’t keep getting away with shopping people and then leaving them with the backlash of having to explain to others why in one photo she looks like she weighs 100 lbs, and why in another her cellulite is thrice the amount she really has. Maybe one day soon this will happen. Though unrelated to what I’m talking about, the Twiggy photoshopping issue at least let me see that some consumers are now refusing to let the media get away with feeding them tripe. Such product misrepresentation and false advertising, my gosh. To alter someone’s image negatively or with the intent to produce a controversial, potentially career-damaging effect needs to be stopped. If you’re gonna take the candid picture, take the candid picture. Don’t alter it like a grade A a-hole. And with that said, lol I have no idea if THIS photo is photoshopped, but if it is to make her legs look that ultra thin, then it’s heinous.
Agreed. I don’t mind if they make someone bigger/smaller for ads, because it’s meant to make the person look better (by intention, at least). And most people are aware that it happens. But photoshopping candids is such bs.
However, how do you stop from people using the most unflattering photos, that aren’t quite photoshopped? Some magazines like to use the most unflattering photos of celebrities where they look like a balloon or a skeleton when they’re not. Who knows.
It’s too bad because clearly, when compared with the other pictures, she lost a significant amount of weight. You can tell visibly if someone is at a healthy weight for his or her body type. Someone else could be her weight and height and easily be healthy looking as well as actually healthy, but you can tell she forced the weight loss. Her face looks drawn out and her body appears emaciated. It’s actually not surprising, considering that, in my opinion, the UK is becoming more obsessed with “hollywood thin” than we are here in the US. If you turn on the BBC there are far more programs addressing eating disorders and talking about “Size 0.” When it’s in the mainstream media so pervasively, it’s hard to ignore.
Wow. Those might be the thinnest legs that I’ve ever seen. Whether those photos are real or not, she looks much more beautiful in the pictures in the middle. She’s in great shape and she looks really healthy there.
They are all look like they have been altered, but the top left photo in particular definitely looks photoshopped.
She looks good, actually! I like the shape of her legs, underweight or not, these legs are divine!
Stick thin, shapeless? Interesting perception of beauty.
i lovessss her peterpan legs~ so cute!
that is anorexia she is suffering of. sadsadsad.
When you are anorexic you dont have boobs like that….
Also she doesn’t have sunken in cheeks… I think she look cute. She’s on heels so she looks skinnier than she actually is.
She obviously has gone too far with weight loss. And this emaciated body makes me think she’s anorexic. Who could ever want to look like that? She looked so good in the pictures before.
I hope she recovers soon.
Her legs are really thin but they look fine to me. No different than Whitney port or Nicki Hilton’s legs.
i think it’s photoshopped. and badly.
just look at the first picture, on her left leg, especially around the ankle, you can see the signs that someone erased a part of her leg.
She really looks skinny! She’s pretty.
Wow I love her in those bikini shots. So pretty, and great body! Now she has starved her way to an unattractive figure. Before I would have stopped to look at her because of how pretty she was, and now I’d stop to comment about how thin she is :/ Such a shame.
If only her legs would look like that, i would go with photoshop as well. But look at her hands and face. it’s disturbing. And sick.
It is NOT photoshopped, this is how she looks atm! Getty Images accepted the Film Magic images and GI never did have photoshopped pictures in their database.
You should look up Nadine Coyle on Getty Images.
But I have to admit, she is sick.
I dont even know what to think the girl has thighs but wow I’ve never ever seen legs that thin except for when I watch a fashion show Sneja Opeka is in it she has verrrrry thin legs so does Isabel Lucas from transformers. She has boobs…… maybe she is shopped so it can turn into a story I mean…. and then the story on how she weighs her food….smh. I’ll just leave it at that basically she would look better if she gained weight.
these legs are not different from the legs of many models we see on the runways but the difference is that those models are skinny from head to toe whereas this nadine looks a bit weird because of the contrast between those super skinny legs and the “big” breast and upper body anyway
well that’s what I think then it might be photoshopped but I don’t I’m not an expert ;D
she looks good.
i want her legs. she looks like she works out now veruss the bathingsuit pics, she looks really soft and “skiinny fat”
honey if you work out you have muscles; this girl has no muscle tone whatsoever; if you like stick thin, fine, it’s your brain, but don’t throw the you can see she works out card, cause it just sounds stupid.
She looks waaay better *skinny-fat* than she does at this ridiculous low weight. What she needed was to gain muscle (like Uma says) not starve herself to emactiation!
*healthy body fat level*
this girl is sick! those legs are unhealthy. it is strange to see that some girls find it “perfect” or “cute”.
Just ignore them. They’ll get over once they grow up. Or die, who cares.
Funny comment but also sad because… it is very possible !
People too skinny are sick, it’s not natural and they die. I wonder why some women want to look like them when there are healthy women and beautifulk actresses or singers we can identify too !
Sha always had stick like legs; but when she was heavier had very unfortunate love handles and one of those block shaped squishy middles.
The food story is just hilarious. If it’s true it’s demented, if it’s nonsense it’s also demented. It’s just a case of whether she’s insane or the press are. Probably a bit of both?
Wtf? Her legs have always been thin. You can’t compare her thighs to her shins and say, “Oh look she’s scary now!” She has lost weight, but hey, that’s what apple shapes look like when they lose weight…it all melts off of their legs first.
For her body type, she is fine. If she was an hourglass or pear, she would be scary.
That is precisely why I said…”Not that we can accurately compare (since we can’t really see her legs well)”.
I just thought that you would like to see her in a bikini.
No offense, but are you unable to READ? Versus clearly said that WE CAN’T COMPARE. and even if you can’t see her legs, you can obviously notice that there is a big OVERALL difference in weight.
What is there to “wtf”??
I am aware of what the poster said. However, I am also aware that people are comparing the two pictures anyway, thus the “wtf,” and the statement about how the two cannot be compared.
By the way, note for future reference: When you state something like “Can’t you read?” when it’s quite clear I can, it’s pretty stupid to request that I not be offended. It’s even more offensive when it’s coming from a person who can’t comprehend my comment.
I always liked your comments Casey, but not this one. She clearly looks scary now, I can’t believe that you don’t see it.
And I didn’t get why you were mad about either. If you read the post, Versus said the EXACT SAME things you said: that she carries weight in her middle, that her legs have always been thin and that you can’t compare the pictures.
Sam,
She has lost weight, and I think she looks much better before, but I don’t think she is quite scary yet based on her body type. I’ve seen people with that body type who are pretty hefty, yet have legs thinner than mine. I guess it’s because I can’t really see her torso because of all of the clothes. Glad you like my other comments.
damn! i hate it, when beautiful thin girls one day go crazy or what and make them selves turn into bony skeletal something… it makes me sick, really.. when even a perfectly slim girl feels a need to lose that MUCH weight, than how the hell am I (as an average weight girl) suppose to feel..?… she just makes me wanna go on a strict diet.. cant help it, it may make no sense, but she simply does…
Blake, the girl is clearly unwell. If someone was severely depressed and jumped off a bridge, would you want to copy them? It’s as though anorexia has been glorified as something to aspire to and it’s not, it’s a mental disorder and everyone needs to remember that.
Anorexia IS a mental disorder. Thus, Nadine would be anorexic only if she had the mental symptoms, and unless you know her personally, you wouldn’t be able to know whether she was anorexic or not. There are hundreds of reasons why she could have lost weight (some including intentional weight loss), that have nothing to do with anorexia. Even if she is dieting, dieting =/= anorexia.
Casey you are right, none of us can diagnose such a disorder but too look at her is quite alarming and just hope she is physically and mentally well.
If you are already very thin and you feel like you need to diet more – that’s clearly not a sign of mental sanity.
oh … my god
look at her calves, looks like there’s no meat on them anymore !
Unfortunate…I don’t know anything about her. Regardless of whether or not she’s naturally this skinny, I would not want her body type. EVER!
Pretty girl but if that food story is true then I feel sorry for her. No one should feel that they have to weigh every ounce of food
This weight doesn’t seem natural for her.
Oh, my legs do that. Chunkier at the top of my thighs, and kind of slightly concave above my knees. A short-but-not-too-short skirt or dress, especially with tights makes me look like I have stick legs, when really they aren’t (or rather, aren’t from the mid-thigh up).
Anyhow, I think she might have a bit of that going on – and if so, it doesn’t take drastic weight loss to LOOK like you’ve lost a bunch of weight…even a few lbs and the right (or wrong) outfit.
Ouch maybe she could do some muscle work to get some shapely legs… Or idk is it possible
I think she looks good, she has that sexy model look.
This is very sad, I know she’s always had body image issues but it’s time she got some professional help.
I think it has got to the point where people have almost become desensitized to images of super skinny celebrities (who may well have eating disorders) and see it as something to aspire to. I find that extremely disturbing.
she looks better when she’s skinny, i luv her legs in the photo
Omg amazing model legs! She looks gorgeous and super happy!
Black pantyhoes and high heels like that make your legs look several sizes smaller so without them she prob looks bigger – I don’t think she’s unhealthy at all. She seems healthy and happy!
loooooooove her legs
love this body type
not everyone who is skinny has an eating disorder
no one can diagnose her with anorexia or say that it’s sad to see her like this because unless you know her (which i doubt any of you do) you can’t say what disease she has or how she is feeling
If she’s 5’6″, what do you think she weighs?
100 lbs
Maybe even less……..
Well seems like the british press has now caught on. Her pics are plastered all over the dailymail saying she is ‘shockingly thin’ and a ‘size 0′.
I dont undestand. It’s okay to slate Nadine for having thin legs. But Kimberley Walsh has big legs, and
people just praise her for being ~curvy or a “real woman”
When that is just as unhealthy as being thin.
Double standards.
Anyway it is only her legs which are thin. And I bet those are photshopped. She and Sarah have the best figures in Girls Aloud.
R, Nadine is not just thin on her legs, she is thin EVERYWHERE. Have you seen her recent pics in the dailymail??
Kimberley is most certainly not unhealthy because her legs are thicker, get a grip.
Double standards would be like comparing Nadine (in her current state) to someone like Michelle McManus.
Seriously, you need some perspective.
Thick legs are unhealthy? Where thick actually means non-stick like. Omg, you are not smart.
And what kate said.
I agree, but Kimberley doesn’t have thick legs, she has fat legs and needs to lose some weight. She is not healthy, she could stand to lose a stone. She is twice the size of all the other girls in the group.
Kimberley is fine as she is, so give it a rest already.
Kimberely has a very different body type to Nadine. I wouldn’t say Kimberely has “fat” legs. Certainly they are thicker, more muscular and stronger than Nadine’s, but there is no shame in a woman being athletic and powerful.
Nadine is very slender and delicate and I agree with most people here that she has lost a bit too much weight recently which is noticable especially in her face and upper body. But she has always had very slight and slender legs and next to Kimberley she has always looked, and will always look, very frail and fragile. But just as there is no shame for Kimberley in being strong and muscular compared to Nadine, so there is no shame for Nadine in being slight and fragile compared to other women. They simply represent contrasting forms of beauty. Nadine could certainly add a few pounds without beginning to look in any way heavy.
Her health and even life are in danger at that weight
