January Jones stars as Betty Draper in the Mad Men show that’s set during the 60s. The thin actress has supposedly been in ‘hot water’ with the producers of the show because she’s not curvy enough to fit into the girdles; girdles were an everyday clothing item back then. This week at an AMC network party she told reporters,
“I got told a couple of days ago that I look too skinny, and I was in trouble. I’m naturally pretty thin, so I’m trying,”
The actress explained that she’s actually a hearty eater and she’ll eat whatever they are offering on the set. Being that she’s from South Dakota she’s a meat and potatoes gal. The star also noted that all of the women on the show are encouraged not to exercise excessively because in the 1960s women were softer and had much more meat on their bones in comparison to the overly thin stars of modern times. She said that she and the other actresses are,
“encouraged NOT to work out. We want soft; we don’t want any muscle definition.”
She went on to explain that the producers want voluptuous women because they was considered more beautiful back then.
The third season of Mad Men premieres on August 16th on the AMC network.

The former Atomic Kitten, Kerry Katona is no more a kitty but instead more like the plump cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland. She admitted to Ok Magazine that she has gained 28 pounds since February. In February she was a size 8! She said,
“[I’ve put on] two stone, [28 pounds] maybe a little more…I just don’t know how it happened – I’m so fat!”
Kerry even admitted to having spent approximately $25,000 on surgery to lose weight but she just can’t keep it off. It’s obvious she has some emotional issues tied to her weight fluctuation. She said,
“I eat because I’m hungry to stay alive. It’s actually the medication that puts weight on so there’s not a lot I can do. When I’m depressed I can’t eat. Then, because I’m happy at the minute, I can’t stop.”
The 29-year-old singer says she ready to try again, and this time with the help of some good old fashioned exercise. She explained,
“I want to lose it again so I’ve got some fitness sessions booked with Scott [Wright, her personal trainer].”
Surely this Atomic Kitten will be a sexy feline on the prowl once again.

It’s official, Renee Zellweger will yet again pack on the pounds for the third installment of the Bridget Jones Diaries. Yes the movies are fabulous but what is this woman doing to her body? The first movie was in 2001 and Zellweger was 31 or 32 years old, now she’s 40 and it’s going to be harder than ever to lose the weight once the camera has stopped rolling. In the first movie she gained approximately 30 pounds by eating heaps of fattening foods like doughnuts, snicker bars, milk shakes and anything calorie-laden. For the second movie it was around 20 pounds and she took more of a healthy approach by pigging out on good fats such as fish oil, avocados and flax seed.
Shape shifting is risky business and let’s hope that for Renee’s health her character, Bridget, decides to go on a diet if and when they do a fourth film in the next few years.
Filming for the third installment will begin at the end of 2009.

A couple of months ago Kirstie Alley was getting both magazine and television interviews where she confessed that she felt she let people down after having gained all of her weight back that she previously lost while on the Jenny Craig diet. After the Jenny Craig stint ended in 2007, Kirstie admitted to throwing out her home gym equipment and got back on to old eating habits.
“My food demons are Chinese food, sugar, butter. If I’m at the movies, usually I eat popcorn without butter, but I’d say, ‘I’m at the movies, so who cares?’ And toast with butter. There was a lot of butter going on.”
She even said that this time she was going to do it right, lose the weight on her own and later not just reveal a new body but also her own weight loss product. However, when she was spotted last week at the Los Angeles airport it looks as if she hasn’t lost any weight yet. Earlier that day she twittered,
“What to pack? what to wear today? Does my ass look big without clothes? who are you NOT wearing on the red carpet? makes life so much easier.’
She then wrote,
“OH YES and I will be investing in the SPRAY TAN industry…and necklaces.”
That all doesn’t make a lot of sense, but then nor does it make sense that this woman who is such a great actress and comedian can’t seem to get a grasp on her health.
“I’m ready to work. I messed up along the way, but I’m not going to concentrate on that. I’m gonna go, “You know what? Get back on the horse, lose the freakin’ weight, and then just move forward!”

“During Dancing, [With The Stars] I was working out all the time. When I wasn’t working, if I had an hour [and] my husband wasn’t home from work yet, I’d be like, ‘Oh, I’m gonna run on the treadmill.’ [But sometimes] you have an hour and the last thing you wanna do is get on a treadmill.”
These days, Marissa is back on track and working out at Studio City’s Cardio Barre. She actually thought that while filming the first season Dance Your Ass Off she would lose some weight, but that didn’t happen:
“I hosted the whole season and didn’t lose a pound. I’m like, ‘Oh my God, this is insane.”

Kerry Katona was a pop sensation with the girl group Atomic Kitten in the late ’90s, but since she has had two children she can’t seem to get the weight off and keep it off. She has reportedly gained approximately 20 pounds over the winter. An insider told Closer magazine that Kerry has said that her husband has even lost interest.
“I’ve gone up a dress size or two. It’s my body that’s repulsed him. I know he’ll be looking to get it from someone else.”
During the summer of 2008 she dropped several dress sizes after undergoing liposuction, and then lost even more weight with the help of her trainer, Scott Wright. Supposedly, at that time, her husband said she was ‘too skinny’ because she lost approximately 55 pounds.
Now, the yo-yo dieter looks as if she is back on the food train and gaining the weight she worked so hard to lose. A friend told Closer magazine,
“The other night she ordered two curries for herself and she polished off the rice and poppadoms, washing it all down with regular Coke and beer.
