Size 0


Size 0 and your immediately thinking 'kareena kapoor' i think she is probably the most looked up person on the internet by indians! apparently Britney spears was given the guiness book title for the most looked up person on the internet this year. everyone is so fixated with kareena's figure. she was on the cover of a business issue and i was shocked! i'm sure it will make news on every possible channel if she becomes a size 1 or a size half!

can you imagine? that news would bring in more ratings than 'starvation in africa'. i can put my money where my mouth is on that one for sure! we really wanna watch people starve and exist on an orange juice diet. the effect is so profound that every actress in bollywood is getting aneroxic, bulimic..or probably just got married to the treadmill. 'hum saath saath hain'

I read that smoking does two good things for you - It curbs your hunger because your stomach is essentially filled with smoke and it relieves stress. So I thought to myself - yes, that is probably the answer to their problems. they must be smoking a lot...that is where their money goes and to the dentist ....and not to mention botox! apparently it does wonders....i'll let you know if i ever happen to try it! (kidding!)

anyway...a few weeks ago I read that smokers are warned or prevented from doing cosmetic surgery for various medical reasons (if you want to know you better look it up smokey!) damn! what would they do? I sometimes wish i was a talk show host I would ask the non-generic questions I bet it would amuse them. I love that about ellen degeneres, she does the exact same thing! the stars on her show feel so welcome because the interview is funny, they aren't sure what to expect....and they know they aren't going to be grilled with serious questions.

Ok back to size 0. i also heard priyanka chopra lost 8 kgs for fashion....huh??? i wonder how much she weighs now...she's probably on a negative scale. another interview with minissha lamba...i loved her song hey ya! in kidnap..apparently she sunburned so much that she took a milk bath for 5 days and smelled like dairy. as soon as someone pointed that out she stopped doing it. i loved her interview because she was open and honest about everything going on with her and i related to her in that respect. totally spilled the beans! apparently she had a high fever doing the freezing water scenes, had to go 5 feet underwater because that was where the shot was taken (her immunity levels were rock bottom) and she couldn't eat because she had to maintain that figure (stated in the contract) lived on energy bars...i really don't know how she didn't get hospitalized in that one week! yet she said if she had to do it again she would...its worth the pain.

i really do think more of these stories should come out...i think a decent public response would be 'you don't have to do that! you will kill yourself!' ...stay alive and show some good performances.
