Aug 10 2009Kelly Clarkson loves her girth
Kelly Clarkson is fine with her weight and decided to fire back at critics in an interview with Self magazine who ironically wasn't fine with Kelly's weight because they airbrushed the shit out of her (above). People reports:
"When people talk about my weight, I'm like, 'You seem to have a problem with it; I don't. I'm fine!'," Clarkson, 27, tells the September issue of Self.
She also notes, "My happy weight changes. Sometimes I eat more; sometimes I play more."
The Texas native admits she still eats chicken-fried steak, but also has days when she prefers salads. "I love healthy stuff and junk an equal amount," she tells the magazine. "Whatever I'm craving, I go for it."
Her secret to losing weight, in fact, is to not go on a diet: "For me, it's the times when I'm not paying attention that I end up losing weight. But I'm never trying to lose weight - or gain it. I'm just being!"
Why do I get the feeling Kelly's one of those people who orders five Big Macs and a Diet Coke? Or eats an entire buffalo because she ate a salad for lunch. With only 10 chicken wings in it. Let's go with that last one.

I usually stick up for her but the last three pics have made me feel sick, its a shame cause when she isnt devouring cow's she has a really pretty face.
Looks as though I might weigh the same as one of her bingo wings in those pic's tho, silly silly girl.

Yes, I'll definitely get my dieting advice from the female-troll version of Meatloaf - I've always wanted to put on a lot of weight but keep my breasts really small.

I love her headline - "Stay True to You and Everyone Else Will Love You, Too!"
Do women actually buy that? If you stay true to yourself some will like you, some won't, that's just the way it goes - the whole point is that you're not supposed to work to make everybody like you. Unless you're fat - then you have no choice but to try to be entertaining, so people can choke down the clot of vomit that rises as soon as they see your disgusting corpulent body.

a fat person saying "I'm fine with my weight" is the same as a fat person saying "I'm too effing lazy to do anything but eat"
18. Tim - August 10, 2009 5:19 PM
#3 - why do people have to be skinny? Um, because thin is healthy, it is attractive, and it is NORMAL.
Fat people are unattractive, unhealthy, and usually have disordered personalities. That hillbilly retard Jessica Simpson is the perfect example of fatness disorder.
Give me someone with self-control and self-discipline, and I'll show you someone who is NOT FAT.
19. FrenchChef - August 10, 2009 5:20 PM
Kelley likes to take a whole cow and deep fry it for about an hour then just eat it while watching a movie. It's better than chicken fried steak.

And Mike, what's the best about the cover is after "Stay true to yourself", every other fucking headline is about how to change/alter yourself:
Get Abs! Fight fat! Sexier Sex! Reach your Dream Weight!

One time I met Kelly and I told her about this magic trick I had learned. So I hid a ding dong in one of my hands and asked her which one my hands was holding yet..Unfortunately Kelly said neither hand and when I opened my hands to see that nothing was infact there, thats when I noticed she was already eating it..

#18...you said it. I was gonna say the same exact thing to #3. Especially if you want to talk about the healthy part of it? Just one thing from being overweight that causes end-organ failure, heart attacks, etc...high blood pressure. Sure other factors can attribute to it but being overweight is a major one. I am so sick of America's lazy fucking attitude of "let's all just love ourselves the obese way we are." Yeah, really healthy. Way to go.

It's like having a breaded, fried steak. They're awesome man.
Oh, except for the crippling, dagger-like pangs that begin shooting thru your stomach almost immediately due to the fat content.
Followed by the "Did I Just Shit Myself?" butt clench, and finally, the "I Just Shat Vegetable Oil and half a Green Bean Out of my Ass" bowel movement.
37. Fati - August 10, 2009 6:20 PM
Yeah, whatever. Like anyone (xept the big O) ever admitted they hated being fat but just didn't have the will power to stop stuffing their faces and exercise. No one loves being overweight, so stop feeding yourself bullshit and lose the lard already.
#3 - People don't have to be or do anything. However, there is such a thing as societal norms. Being fat is not seen as socially desirable. It never was, it never will be. You fatties really need to make your peace with that and stop trying to make fatness okay. Don't be pathetic.

39. AJ - August 10, 2009 6:26 PM
I am kicking myself for even reading the comments on this post. The ignorant vitriol and knee-jerk hatred here is just astonishing.
People's bodies are pre-programmed to stay within a certain weight range. To go beyond that you have to take extreme measures that just aren't sustainable. Why should she be forced to starve herself silly and kill herself exercising just to be thin? If she's getting a decent amount of exercise and eating reasonably well, she's probably way more healthy than a size 0 model who never exercises and barely eats. You can be both healthy AND overweight. True story.
Fat doesn't kill--sedentary lifestyles and terrible diets do. How can we assume to know anything about Kelly's lifestyle other than the fact that she likes both bad stuff and healthy stuff? O NOES TEH FATTY EATED A DONUT. Heaven forbid.
I don't really expect any of this to stick. This crowd just wants to laugh at the chubby girl and move on. "She's fuckin' ugly!!!! Looks just like a pig. lol" Eloquent.

16, nice "over the top" reference & i do concur.
seriously though, if she's so comfortable with how she looks, she should be pissed off that they did that to her on the cover. that is NOT her ass and the arm is about 6 inches smaller in circumference and missing 50 dimples of cellulite. i won't hold my breath for the official statement from this fatty reprimanding Self magazine.

Unless you have a glandular problem, no young person has any excuse to be fat and unhealthy. Jeebus, Kelly, go exercise for fucks sake. Stop convincing yourself that the "real you" is overweight. It's sad that stupid lazy people try to convince others to be stupid and lazy. "Whatever I'm craving, I go for it." JFC! Mmm that reminds me of KFC.. I'm outta here! Getting a whole bucket and eating it by myself! Don't convince me otherwise. This is how I am!
54. Oscar - August 10, 2009 7:47 PM
Wow the people commenting on here make me want to vomit!! Kelly is not morbidly obese she is actually only probably a little heavier than what normal should be. The people commenting on here are the reason that women shove their fingers down their throats after they eat. I wonder what all of your bodies look like. I doubt they are perfect and you are all obviously total losers, bitches, and assholes to have nothing better to do than say "moooo" or call someone a fat cow. Go to hell.
55. James - August 10, 2009 7:53 PM
@39
"Why should she be forced to starve herself silly and kill herself exercising just to be thin?"
Listen. There is starving yourself, eating healthy, and pigging out. Considering that she is gaining weight, what do you think she is doing? We know what she used to look like. She was never really skinny but she had a nice figure imo.
Also, exercising is not killing yourself. Not only is a certain amount healthy, it can also be FUN or relaxing. Go for a walk, ride a bike, take a hike, play catch with some friends, etc etc.
"People's bodies are pre-programmed to stay within a certain weight range. To go beyond that you have to take extreme measures that just aren't sustainable."
Exactly. Her weight is going up because she is pigging out. As you get older, that pre-programmed weight tends to go up as the body tends to maintain less lean muscle mass. She is still young.
56. RedFantaGirl - August 10, 2009 8:31 PM
Okay, so I totally love this girls' voice, but let's get real. She is huge!!! Worst part is that she admits the reason why she gains weight is because while she's recording she eats nothing but junk food and doesn't work out. She's fat because she has bad eating habits, and there is no excuse for that. Why are celebrities always complaining about us demanding they have good bodies. With all the money and resources they have, they have no fucking excuse to be fat when normal people stay thin by eating healthy and jogging a little around the block. Stop being such a fat ass, Kelly. Your voice is not enough to keep you famous, as long as a skinny Christina Aguilera exists.
57. AJ - August 10, 2009 10:05 PM
@50 Prove it. Also, go to hell.
@55
Did you ever consider that maybe the only reason she was thin was because she was going to extreme lengths to get there? No one should have to spend half their waking hours exercising and counting every calorie just to meet some arbitrary, constantly shifting, subjective standard of attractiveness. There's a difference between getting moderate, regular exercise (which I agree is great for your health) and spending hours a day at the gym.
It sounds like she eats like a normal person. She eats healthy, but she doesn't deny herself the occasional splurge. Are you a saint when it comes to food? No. Get off your high horse.
If Kelly were naturally skinny and admitted to eating chicken fried steak now and then, people would commend her for her down-to-earthness. But since she's predisposed to being larger, every splurge is ammunition. Sure, it's possible that she's a lazy couch potato--but given her success and stardom, I tend to think not. I think it's more likely that she's given up the 24/7 quest for the perfect body and accepted that it's OK to be healthy and average-sized (and that's what she is--pretty much average).
She's nearing 30. It's natural for her metabolism to start slowing down. Cut her some slack. Stuffing your face isn't the only reason you gain weight.

She's not that overweight, christ. You people need to smoke a fatty and chill the fuck out. How old is this general crowd and who the fuck taught you to treat another person that way?. Obviously she's a bit delusional about her weight, considering she let that cover fly. She needs to eat healthier, plain and simple. Don't behave like a child and call her names, inform her that her diet is working against her and she needs to be eating healthier. We all have our fucking battles, everyone needs some encouragement once and a while.

Damn this ho is morbidly obese! She may the fattest bitch I have ever seen on TV other than LuLu from Hee Haw. How the hell can this dumb, fat bitch even be remotely famous. Oh wait, I know, because all of the fat American bitches who are even fatter and think she looks beautiful. All of you fat American sluts need to take notice. We ain't gonna bang your ugly fat asses. Got it? Lose some weight you American skanks! You are repulsive!
62. tromba - August 10, 2009 11:08 PM
I'm betting that she doesn't care about looking like a cow is because she doesn't care about appealing to men. I'm not saying she is a lesbian - I lied - I truly think she is totally gay. The closet door is open. Who cares - other than the people who are paying her?
63. Fati - August 10, 2009 11:23 PM
To AJ
I don't care why she is fat. But I hate the hypocracy. NOBODY likes being heavy, NOOOOOBOOOODY. I used to be chubby when I was about 16. I weighed 146 lb at 5"6 and I was miserable! Being overweight is disgusting. Are you seriously telling me that you believe that she loves not being able to wear anything she wants? You believe that she loves it when she looks at pictures of herself where the camera caught her at an especially fat angle? You think she goes - 'awww, I look sooo sexy that fat'? No, trust me, she doesn't. It feels really lousy when you see a cute little skirt in the window of a store, and you take it into a fitting room, put it on, and you look like a fucking cow in it! Nobody loves that feeling. Nobody likes looking in the mirror and seeing multiple chins and cellulite on their ass. So I guess people are not obligated to be fit and "starve themselves silly and kill themselves with exercise", but don't sit there and don't tell me you would rather be fat than fit. So, to summarize, I guess you have the right to be lazy and not do anything about your weight, but do the rest of the world a favour - don't tell us you like being one of the fattest girls in the room. Jessica Simpson tried doing that. Then a couple of months later she is telling the world she wants her old body back, dieting and jogging. Looks like a patheic idiot, doesn't she?

65. James - August 10, 2009 11:57 PM
The problem I have with her is not mostly her weight. Actually, let's say she wasn't famous and was just some women I met. If she had a decent personality, I'd be very interested. The problem is that she is getting heavier and that she is not only in denial but encouraging other women to do the same, eat whatever they fucking want and be lazy.
Some of you are right, she isn't that fat. But she is getting fatter and developing poor habits. I just hate this attitude that some people have of "I'm OK, you're OK" when there is a problem. Some things that people expect of you ARE OK. It is OK to eat healthy. It is OK to exercise.

18 - douche alert, Tim cited for douche-like behavior. Observe and report when he graduates to full tampon status.
"#3 - why do people have to be skinny? Um, because thin is healthy, it is attractive, and it is NORMAL. "
People with a BMI under 18.5 (think all supermodels) risk malnutrition, death, and early mortality at a greater rate than people with a BMI of 25 - 30, who are considered overweight by the outdated 19th century body mass index. Even Brad Pitt and Michael Jordan are classed as overweight or obese according to these scales. And many female models report losing their cycle because the body goes into shutdown mode to preserve vital processes. Thin is not healthy. Chubby is not unhealthy. Only diet and activity matter. Only the extremes carry excessive risk.
"Normal" is whatever characteristic is found in the majority of any given group. In the United States, being overweight is normal - over 60% of the population.

@63
How do you know she's lazy? You ASSUME she never exercises and stuffs her face. But how do you know? You've never even met her. Maybe she's finally living her life like a normal person after years of starvation, and her body is reverting to the size it wants to be. Maybe she's getting a moderate amount of exercise and eating a reasonably healthy diet, just like any "normal" person. Maybe her metabolism is just slowing down gradually due to age. You don't know. So you can't fucking judge.
Just because you clearly have a pathological hatred of your own body does not give you the right to make assumptions about the bodies of others. And, by the way, being 5' 6" and 146 lbs falls right smack in the NORMAL range. Not even overweight, at least according to the BMI standard. Since you have such a massively disordered view of your own body, I'm pretty damn reluctant to buy in to your body image arguments. Get a therapist.
69. Fati - August 11, 2009 12:42 AM
AJ
Being lazy means not doing ENOUGH to get in shape. So, pardon me, but when I see an overweight girl and hear her say that she loves her weight, I rightfully ASSUME that she is lazy, because she has clearly given up. Hey, once again - you have the right to be fat. Just don't tell me you think it's hot.
Fucking give it up with the bullshit! You are giving me bogus arguments and you know it. Just because I don't think that a fat ass and muffin tops are sexy, does not mean that I hate my body or I have a 'massively disoredered view' of it. It simply means that I do not like lying to myself and making excuses for being "average" or "BMI normal".
AJ, you are clearly an angry overweight girl who is lashing out against people saying that fat is not OK. Instead of sitting here and thinking up clever arguments for fatness, and trying to make people that do not want to be fat cows look shallow and mentally unhealthy, get off your big arse and do something about it. I promise, some of that anger will melt right off along with the pounds. And once you get your own butt in shape, you sure as hell will stop advocating for chubby girls to be viewed as "normal".
So long, you healthy, healthy fatty.
70. Fati - August 11, 2009 12:48 AM
#67 - Really? Normal is whatever characteristic is found among the majority? How about if the majority starts fucking their family members, will that become normal too? That's some fine logic to live by.

@69
Believe it or not, I too fall within the "normal" BMI range. I exercise and watch my diet, thankyouverymuch. But what the fuck does that have to do with pure and simple logic? You are by no means obligated to find Kelly Clarkson attractive, but please stop spewing uninformed drivel. The fact that you addressed not a single one of my points proves that you're MISSING the point.
I take huge offense to your assertion that anyone who isn't doing enough to stay skinny is lazy. Studies have shown that even those who conform to militaristic diet/exercise regimens will gain the weight back within five years, even if they stick with the program (and they'll fuck up their metabolism in the process). Studies have also shown that people who are naturally skinny can't get--and stay--fat, even if they try real, real hard. As long as you're living a relatively healthy lifestyle, your body will settle at the weight it wants to be. Period. Who's to say Kelly isn't doing just that?

73. Fati - August 11, 2009 1:58 AM
@71
The fact that you take huge offense just proves that you have a weight problem.
Studies also show that fat people are fat either because they have health problems, or because they eat a lot and don't exercise enough to burn the calories they consume.
I don't give a rat's ass about Kelly Clarkson. The thing that gets to me is when people like you go out of their way to make fatness normal. North America is already mocked around the world for being obese. You are not helping by trying to adjust universal standards to fit the fat American majority.
Why don't you just keep telling yourself that as long as you fall into the "normal" BMI range, you look fine. Maybe you will convince yourself. But don't count on anyone else buying into that.
74. ham - August 11, 2009 3:10 AM
Clearly, Fati won this argument, although you seem to have focused too much on looks (with the mirrors and skirts and all). AJ, you had a few good runs but hey, time to give it up. You also sound like a determinist, or perhaps even a fatalist (like, it's all genes anyway, weight can't change much, etc. which is fallacious).

She's overweight and she's getting bigger. It will work out for her BIG time because about 50 more lbs from now. Jenny Craig will offer her a FAT contract for crazy CHEESE to lose weight and do commercials about it.
Your internal organs and joints don't think it's so great to have to withstand the added pressure or working harder to keep such glorious girth up and running. Your body also doesn't think Type 2 diabetes is normal either. True story.

82. AJ - August 11, 2009 11:26 AM
@assholesmakingidioticassumptionsaboutme
Totally, totally irrelevant. What does my lifestyle have to do with logic? I'm not going into any more detail about myself because you people will just use it as fuel for the fire. If I say I work out X times a week, you'll say "why not X+1?" I can say I'm healthy until I'm blue in the face, but you guys won't believe it. It's completely irrelevant, and it's your cheap way of getting around responding to any of my arguments.
The point of my posting in the first place was to argue that Kelly should be allowed to live a normal life without being held to a different standard of nutritional sainthood than a skinny person. It says right there in the article that she works out (boot camp, even!) and eats a balance of healthy food and junk food. Who here can say their diet and exercise regime is perfect? It sounds like she's happy and healthy and confident, and her weight is nowhere near high enough to cause obesity-related illness or joint/bone damage. (By the way, those "obesity-related" illnesses are caused by inactivity, not fat. Active fat people don't have them.) I'm not arguing for the rights of all fat people everywhere, or arguing that there aren't fat people out there who are fat because they're lazy. There are. But that's obviously not the case here.
You don't have to find her attractive, but for god's sake stop judging her for being happy with herself. Stop vomiting up this stream of (practically illiterate) hatred. It's disgusting, and it's getting all over your shirt.

I love reading the comments from fat people pretending to be skinny online. Always get a kick out of it.

A confident woman can be intimidating, especially to geekazoids who rip on the *talented* and *successful* anonymously, lol.
89. she's put on 50 - August 11, 2009 1:09 PM
Kelly's coming to your town to rock the stage !!! ...........literally
90. SheIsSoFat - August 11, 2009 1:16 PM
She is so unhealthy fat. The only people that think she isn't are fatter than she is. Everytime Kelly's takes a dump her bowels make sounds that sound just like a baby saying the word "fat". It is so cute that her parents filmed/recorded it and showed it to the guys she brings to their home for dinner.

#83 - I've seen stuff on similar studies. It's actually really interesting to think about. The human body is so smart about a lot of things. Obviously, people should exercise and not eat McDonald's all day every day, but messing with the way you're supposed to be to excess can lead to some seriously weird body issues that are equally as unhealthy as those caused by overeating.
And also, bless your heart. This comment thread is hella creepy. Kelly Clarkson's job isn't being skinny. She may be heavy, but she's not obese. No one has to find her attractive if they don't want to, but wow. The comments have been incredibly unstylish.
And it's not like she's promoting eating nothing but junk food. She's acknowledging that junk food is awesome, which it is. These soulless harpies are probably just allergic to awesome.

Come On People ! : Kelly is a huge massive talent
94. Kaitlin - August 11, 2009 1:49 PM
I love that she looks so normal. Self sucks for airbrushing her that much. She should be happy and proud to be able to be in the spotlight not caving in to judgmental media and people. I don't know her music but I think she rocks!!
95. Jess - August 11, 2009 1:51 PM
Dooode! Your site got farked! Kudos!

I love big 'ole sloppy girls like Kelly....good pushin' on the cushion'
97. Des Moiner - August 11, 2009 5:06 PM
She's yummy fat! I'd love to spend 3 quality minutes with her. Why is everyone so pissy over her being overweight? Nothing else to complain about? I'm sure the rest of your pathetic lives are simply perfect. Live and let live. Kelly...call me!
98. Joe Stahl - August 11, 2009 5:09 PM
Who is this woman, and why should I (or any of you) care?
99. Kid Kline - August 11, 2009 6:22 PM
I love Kelly just the way she is. Beautiful, talented, sweet, with curves like a woman. Stick figures, beware! My dog buries bones in the back yard. Love ya, Kelly !!!
100. Fatty Jane - August 11, 2009 7:15 PM
I'm a big fat bitch. And I get laid. ALOT. From guys who love getting their dicks wet with chubbies. I probably have more fantastic sex then all you whiny stick people..you're too busy complaining and being offended by us fatties. Well, GET OVER YOURSELVES. I'm here, I'm big and I'm not goin' ANYWHERE.
101. Jimmy - August 11, 2009 10:16 PM
Wow. It's douchebags like the superficial posters in this comment section that make me really give up on humanity. She's a singer, if you have an aversion to people who aren't in perfect shape, perhaps you should take a deep personal reflection. Failing that, go fuck yourself.
102. Jeff - August 12, 2009 5:03 AM
IF SHE LIKES HER WEIGHT, THEN WHY DID SHE LET SELF MAGAZINE PHOTOSHOP HER ASS TO MAKE IT LOOK SMALLER?
103. Narcissist - August 12, 2009 8:09 AM
Is that Christina Ricci on the cover? Actually does look like they shopped off 70 lbs.
104. Not Surprised - August 12, 2009 8:32 AM
Wow, I didn't realize there were so many perfect people in the US. Good to know everyone posting fat jokes and insults are lean, mean fitness machines. No hypocrisy here ...

106. Dallas Darkstar - August 12, 2009 11:19 AM
To #104...stfu. Did you NOT read the name of this website, fatty? I am a lean 220 pounds. It helps that I'm 6'5". I'm guessing you weigh about them same and two feet shorter.
Put the cheeseburger down and go do some squats.
107. chrissy - August 12, 2009 9:43 PM
Kelly Clarkson is NOT fat. You people are hateful and crazy. I am disgusted at some of these comments. Oh, you are all so perfect. Bunch of idiots. Low class idiots. She is beautiful and a sweet kid. Leave her alone. She can do whatever she wants, and she doesnt give a rat's ass what any of you losers think.

109. summer, donna - August 12, 2009 11:44 PM
My, the overwhelming stench of misogyny and general douchehound-crazy fat-hatred in here could gag a maggot. It really burns some of you to see someone who doesn't buy into the beauty myth, doesn't it? I would think that most of you wouldn't waste your time posting your opinion on it, considering that's some precious time you could be spending in the gym hating yourself for not fitting into some size 0 skinny jeans. JESUS WEPT, Y'ALL.
110. sassy - August 13, 2009 9:57 PM
Well said, Donna Summer. The nasty comments on here are pathetic. Kelly rocks and is an awesome human being.
111. Melanie - August 14, 2009 6:32 AM
What to expect of a website called "The Superficial"?? Nothing really. Two minutes of my life wasted reading this bullshit...
Why don't you guys stop patronizing people and get a life????
112. JKB - August 15, 2009 1:00 PM
@ AJ, fat ppl, and other fat ppl supporters
you guys make me terribly angry. Honestly, a healthy weight and fit appearance are easily attainable. Fat burning is all about working in cardio exercises to your week. I used to be pretty fat as a kid. For a month I ran 3-5 miles a day, 3-5 days a week, and lost about 35 pounds. I have kept this weight off for over 5 years now, and am moving towards building more muscle. For celebrities, who's success depends almost ENTIRELY on their appearance in the public eye, you could say its their goddamed JOB to look good for us. They have more money and time in the world and they don't have 40 minutes to go jogging?? Holycrap.
Even if you don't believe that Kelly herself is that overweight, she is encouraging unhealthy habits. AJ keeps insisting that we don't know enough to judge her, but we DO know that she gave out a bunch of shit advice (true eating whatever you want will make you happy, but some foods we want are terrible for our bodies, so we need to exercise self-control) that will CERTAINLY be used as ammunition by fat people to continue their fat lifestyles. proof? AJ's stauch support of fat people.
The future result of the social acceptance of fatness is apparent. Proportions of fat people in the nation's population is growing, and it's a goddamed fact that our bones and joints can't support that much weight for decades. As so many people listen to Kelly and grow and stay fat, WE'RE all going to have to pay for THEIR freakin orthopedic surgeries when they're old and STILL fat.
Hey AJ, you'd be cool paying an extra couple thousand dollars off your paycheck to support a an old fat person's knee surgery if they used Kelly's advice as justification for why they're fat?
113. JKB - August 15, 2009 1:04 PM
if anyone doesn't see the connection:
everyone has to pay taxes for medicare. old people are insured through medicare. proportion of fat people growing. once these fat people are old enough, they get hit with poor bones and joints, but WAIT! they also get coverage by medicare.
The result = we all have to pay for fat people TODAY who think their lifestyles are "healthy".
If you're okay with that, just think: would you be okay covering someone for lung cancer who smoked a carton everyday because their body "just needs" the nicotine?
114. Britt - August 16, 2009 4:08 PM
I am a little bit overweight, but I am NOT doing nothing but eating. Sure, I have had my depressed and lazy months where I am not getting the exercise I need and I am not going to make excuses about why I'm carrying 10 extra pounds. But I resent anyone who says all I'm doing is sitting on my ass eating food, because that is not how all people with extra weight live their lives. It's a lot more complex than just that.
And since when do we care more about her stomach and thighs than we do about her talent? I for one don't give a shit what she looks like.
