Ten Skinny-Ass Ladies Who Used to Be Hot

Ten Skinny-Ass Ladies Who Used to Be Hot

Too many actresses are believing the line that you can’t be too thin. Please, ladies, eat a sandwich or something at the craft services cart. Here are a special shout-out to ten skinny-ass celebs that used to really turn heads.

Thandie Newton
Most recently seen in: Run Fat Boy Run
Last time she was hot: Mission: Impossible II

There was a time that Thandie Newton was the next Hollywood hottie. Then someone must have suggested that she had some jelly rolls, because she lost more weight than a cancer patient on Atkins. Now she looks more like a zero-body-fat lizard than a celebrity beauty.

Victoria Beckham
Most recently seen in: Ugly Betty
Last time she was hot: when the Spice Girls were

Not that I was a fan of the Spice Girls, but I will admit that they covered all the bases in terms of fantasy girls. But the former Posh Spice has lost so much weight that her once sultry figure makes her look like a lollipop - a wobbly head on a stick. I’m afraid her neck is going to snap and her hubby will kick her head around their flat like a soccer ball.

Jennifer Connelly
Most recently seen in: Reservation Road
Last time she was hot: Requiem for a Dream

Can you believe this was the girl from The Rocketeer? Or Dark City? This buxom brunette starts getting some Hollywood credibility and drops down to a size zero. There’s nothing wrong with losing a little pudge, but when you look like one of the starving children from Sierra Leone in Blood Diamond, something’s wrong.

Rachel Taylor
Most recently seen in: Shutter
Last time she was hot: Transformers

Okay, I really loved her debut in Transformers. Very few ladies in Hollywood could give Megan Fox a run for the money, especially in a two-hour Michael Bay beer commercial. But in Shutter, this girl looked like she hadn’t eaten since working with Bay. She could make it as an up-and-coming hottie, if she actually ate a sandwich.

Kate Bosworth
Most recently seen in: 21
Last time she was hot: Blue Crush

She just beat the house last weekend in 21, and she banged Superman without being mortally wounded, but I just can’t get over the fact she looks like a 12-year-old boy. It wasn’t hard to hide her nipples in the 21 sex scene, considering she’s about as anorexically flat-chested as Jim Sturgess was.

Ashlee Simpson
Most recently seen in: 2008 Kids Choice Awards
Last time she was hot: 2008 Kids Choice Awards, but still doesn’t look healthy

She was the less-cute sister of Jessica Simpsons, but thanks to silicone, collagen, rhinoplasty and crash diets, she now looks like a supermodel. But that’s not a good thing. It might work for a bulimic supermodel, but for a girl who could have been America’s sweetheart, she looks less like her former self than Michael Jackson does.

Angelina Jolie
Most recently seen in: Beowulf
Last time she was hot: Beowulf (hell, they can do a lot with CGI)

Not too long ago, I saw a tabloid compare photos of Jolie’s scrawny, veiny arm to that of geriatric Clint Eastwood. And you know what? Sometimes tabloids are right. This once hot chick has gotten way too thin. Have you seen the trailers for Wanted? Give me back the Gia days, baby!

Lindsay Lohan
Most recently seen in: I Know Who Killed Me
Last time she was hot: Herbie Fully Loaded

Granted, she’s up and down more often than Oprah lately, but let’s blame this on her lack of focus. I saw her nudie shots from New York Magazine. And while I’m impressed with her huge (but obviously fake) knockers, I just can’t get excited about the freckly femme’s whisper-thin frame. She was chubby-cheerleader cute for a while, but just a year or so ago, her weight plummeted, making her scary-thin for a while.

Saffron Burrows
Most recently seen in: The Bank Job
Last time she was hot: Deep Blue Sea

It’s arguable that former model Saffron Burrows ever really looked healthy. But watching this scrawny, lanky lady tower over Jason Statham in The Bank Job was enough to get her on this list. She made his evil co-star from Transporter 2 look fat. Still, that underwear shot in Deep Blue Sea was pretty nice.

Gwyneth Paltrow
Most recently seen in: The Good Night
Last time she was hot: Se7en

Anyone who is familiar with me as a film critic knows that I have been highly critical of Paltrow for years. But aside from her inability to act (and so many people’s inability to see that she can’t act), I detest how she is physically wasting away as she gets older. She’s one of those girls that went overboard to lose the baby weight. Now, as she enters her late 30s, that too-thin look is not working for her.

Sound off: Which actresses need a few more pounds?

jenna jameson lol


Nate says:

Kevin, are you really telling me Angelina Jolie isn’t hot anymore? Whatever you’re smoking, I want some of it.


Chris Beaumont says:

This is a BS list, if only because two of the included you list the last time they were hot as the last thing they were in. Give me a break and give it some more thought.

For example, why the hell isn’t Jessica Alba on this list? Take a look at her in Rise of the Silver Surfer (creepy blue eyes and blonde hair aside) and then go back a few years to Into the Blue, or Sin City, hell go back to Honey and Dark Angel. She needs a burger or two.

Also, this is a movie site, so why are non-movie entities like Ashlee Simpson and Victoria Beckham on here?

Ok, that should discount four of your ten. I gave you one, care to try for three more?


Maggie Van Ostrand says:

Thandie Newton is losing weight for her upcoming role as Condi Rice (that’s the street talk).

The rest of them aren’t losing weight, it just looks that way because their heads are getting bigger.


Shortshire says:

Jennifer Connelly is still a beautiful woman. She was always beautiful and carried an aura of hotness. Connelly was not as skinny as those starving children, she looks like every reporter that goes down there, in shape and sweaty.

I agree with you on Lindsay Lohan, she just needs to find her own path and not get druggie skinny.


Kevin Gustafson says:

Disagree with Jolie and Kate Bosworth. Kate’s hotter than in Blue Crush where she was too skinny for my taste.


L. Tanglebrook says:

I give a huge vote for Christina Ricci. I saw her in a magazine recently, and I didn’t even recognize her at first. She used to be super curvy, and now she’s beginning to resemble an alien.


Chris says:

I’d still do ‘em all. Y’know… just sayin’.


Sammy says:

All of these women are hot and sexy. You folks have unresolved issues that need to be addressed.

If you can’t get hot chicks there is no need to lash out at them like this.


Jerry says:

Sarah Jessica Parker was hot in LA Story w/ Steve Martin. Now she’s stick girl.


robert T says:

You forgot Renée Zellweger. She was hot in the jerry mcguire movie, but waff thin now. Nasty. I’ll 2nd the C Ricci vote too. She use to be hot and voluptious.


Ookadoo says:

I second Christina Ricci. She used to have the perfect body, it’s such a shame…


Carol says:

Christina Ricci and Brittany Murphy both did the whole going from sexy curves to way too skinny thing around the same time. Brittany Murphy circa her SNL appearance was really disgusting. They were both way hotter before they lost the weight.


Mike says:

I think there still hot. I like a bit more meat on the bone, so to speak but I wouldn’t kick any of them out.


Mike says:

My bad, I think “they’re” still hot.


Bri says:

Nikki Cox. What the hell happened? She went scary-skinny and got duck lips and ruined
everything. There’s something wrong in Hollywood.


dbag says:

I agree with most of them…In my opinion most stars need to put on a few pounds. To be honest with you, I would kick some of them out of bed because you could easily find someone just about as hot, at your college who at least didn’t feel like you were sleeping with a skeleton….


Tre says:

Nicole Kidman is pretty thin these days


Neckwish says:

Thinner is better. Most of the actresses out there should eat a few less sandwiches. Bring on the skeletor, my friends. Meatier is not neatier.


Morghus says:

You don’t look particularly sexy if you look like a starved crack-addict.


JOe says:

Agree. 100%. Another thing to think about: Ever hear the saying, “The Camera adds 10 lbs” Yeah. Ouch. I bet in real life some of these women really look like sticks.


Lakawak says:

It has been made perfectly clear that Kevin Carr has never had a woman let him see her breasts. There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that someone who has seen breasts before could think that the New Yorker Magazine photo shoot shows that Lindsay Lohan’s breasts are fake. The REALITY is that the photo shoot proves beyond a shadow of the doubt that just the opposite is true. They are CLEARLY real based on those pictures. The debate on that one is over.


sarah says:

istill hink lyndsays breasts are fake and woman with knockers that big will have atleast a bit of a natural sag they might look real but thats what plastic surgeons try to do, and if she weights what 115 tops when she lost weight thats one of the first places you lose idk they look fake to me but what do i know ive only had breasts my whole life


sarah says:

i actually idk i went and looks at the photos and some they look real maybe hey just made them perky somehow for the feature one but either way i dont care much


idle_eyes says:

Keira Knightley


ashizzle says:

kelly ripa


Seantiago says:

Sarah, I’m afraid your expertise (owing to you having had breasts your whole life) is completely nullified due to the fact that you are too retarded to put a sentence together.


Bernie says:

Yo gonna need a tweezer to get all the splinters out of your dick after screwing any one of them.


Langx says:

Jolie hasn’t been hot since she married the dirtiest man on the planet.
That was just disgusting. Talk about nasty seconds.


Smitty says:

Renée Zellweger FTW!


troy says:

I have to say that for the most part I have to agree with each comment you made. The only thing that I have a problem with is trying to remember when Lindsay Lohan was ever hot. What you said about Posh had me laughing so hard I almost wet my pants, thanks you made my morning!


Travis Ritch says:

Minnie Driver and Katharine McPhee


John says:

Pedophiles like skinny women because they remind them of preteen children. Keira knightley is missing.


Frank says:

Keira Knightley can’t be included on the list because she’s *always* been skinny. She didn’t start out with more weight and then lose it. She never had it in the first place. True, she’s been hot in some of her stuff and I wouldn’t kick her out of bed…


Kent says:

And this hit Digg for what reason? Digg is becoming useless. Headlines people create are 70% inaccurate


Jim says:

Conspicuously absent: Cameron Diaz. The last time she was hot was the FIRST time, too - The Mask. She was curvy and bubbly and giggly and adorable. Then some Hollywood d-bag leaned on her to lose weight, and suddenly, we have a creepy canvas-wrapped skellington. SAD.


shoreke says:

If Angelina Jolie is a good enough for a world class stud like Brad Pitt; she is good enough for me.


Robert says:

Lara Flynn Boyle. Last hot in Twin Peaks.


Shawn says:

Sorry Kevin, I have to disagree with you about Jennifer Connelly — I still think she is the 2nd most beautiful woman alive, the 1st being my wife. :)


Jorgandus P. Morgenfeld says:

Let’s all be honest - all these chicks are hot. Everyone reading this board would be ecstatic to be banging / dating them and I gather a large (though not necessarily 100%) percentage of the readership would be estatic to be married to them as well.

A pound here, a pound there. Could some of them be slightly more ‘hot’ if they gained a few? Sure. (Although, keep in mind, it’s a thin disguise to argue ‘you need to gain 5lbs to be healthy’ but then start buying weight-watchers and treadmills for the gf when that 5 turns into 15)

But please - “Ladies Who Used to be Hot”. Yeah. Okay. Sure. You’ve convinced me. Top ten fuglies right here.

Give me a break.


BlaenkDenum says:

I know a few girls at school in this situation :( They used to be really beautiful, and now…well…:’( I’d wish they’d eat something, not only because it’d make them beautiful again but because I really feel sorry for them. You know it’s bad when you are really really beautiful and you think you’re a monster so you stop eating as much if not completely and turn into this other person who is no longer beautiful, constantly in the state of trying to be something else. I’d just like to see her happy again. (Heh, I think I started focusing on one individual here…).

Fuck the idiots who think this is hot and drive the girls to be this way.


Seantiago says:

Why would I be “ecstatic” to be married to someone I don’t even know? What if she’s a total bitch?


Denisse says:

These skinny ladies need my favorite wardrobe accessory - my bubbles padded boyshorts…it’ll give em back the booty they lost when they stopped eating!


JoJo says:

“Sarah Jessica Parker was hot in LA Story”

Never hot, just an ugly little chick with the right family connections to get into showbiz.

To quote Peter Griffin:

“Sarah Jessica Parker looks like a shoe”

Even better I prefer the British reporter talking to Kim Cattrall when he called Sarah Jessica Parker “Old horse face”.


Mercurystar says:

I agree - Sarah Jessica Park, Cameron Diaz, etc. have all gone on the way side of joining
the crowd in becoming ultra-thin. Most of Hollywood has gone that direction, and it is
ironic considering the modeling world is getting in trouble for having ultra thin models.
Since when did having curves become a past, glorious thing? It’s a shame these women
seem to think being anything but stick-thin is a crime. I love curves - it designates health
and sex appeal to me. To me, these women seem to be unhappy with themselves and are
trying to ‘become one of the group’. And I thought I had low self-esteem!
So glad I never followed the norm and never will! :P


Charlie Cowligston says:

Horrible list made with little thought. Horrible pictures. You should hire me for 100K and I will rock your content.

UJ DUDE


Phil E. Drifter says:

Nate: Angelina Jolie was NEVER hot. What are YOU smoking?


Ivory says:

You’re insane. These girls are hot.
The major issue with Americans and weight is gluttony.
Being overweight is a health hazard that affects way more people than being too skinny.
Thin is hot. Fat is not. Let’s encourage people to be thin and healthy, rather than attacking
them for trying to be fit!


swjunckie says:

I say you missed Courtney Cox. My god she looks like Skeletor now….


theyear2000 says:

image google ’sarah jessica parker’, and select the 12th picture. then do the same for ‘horse’, and select the bottom left picture, a painting called ‘the jump.’ juxtapose the two, smoke a bowl and laugh your ass off. =]


BayAreaDM says:

I agree..Cameron Diaz came to mind first and foremost. She was the most beautiful woman I’d seen in a LONG time in The Mask.


sporadicus says:

They’re all hot. Skinny = hot. Didn’t you get the memo?


Mokkelaar says:

Well.. better a bit too thin than way too fat!!

Fot hot woman you should check this forum.. Celebrity babes hot pictures and videos



Bazman05 says:

Now I’m not a fan of Paltrow, but she has won an Oscar, so you saying she can’t act doesn’t make it so.

Also, Victoria Beckham or Miss Piggy as I like to call her is a hideous looking thing but me saying that doesn’t make it so either. Isn’t that right, Kevin Carr. Her inclusion kind of ruined the list for me.


Thip says:

Lindsay Lohan’s breasts are not fake


Celebrity Quiz says:

Correction - Ashley Simpson was never hot
