Star Magazine Fat-Shaming Pregnant Kim Kardashian’s Supposed “65 Lbs Weight Gain”
March 7, 2013 by Hollywoodite
Kim Kardashian also covers Star Magazine. Except they’re not prematurely declaring her a single mother, they’re pretty much literally calling her “fat” with name-calling and a fabricated number used to represent her weight gain.
The cover says “5 ft 2 ins 185 lbs. Pregnant Kim’s Nightmare. 65 lbs weight gain. Binges on pasta, cake and ice cream; ‘These stretchmarks are ruining my body’; Greedy Kris already shopping $4 million weight loss deal.” With an inset photo that’s years old representing Kardashian before the pregnancy.
Moreover, Jezebel.com notes that the weight gain represented on the cover is fabricated by someone who GUESSED by looking at the cover photo. ”Kim’s Baby-Weight NIGHTMARE,” reads one headline. “FROM BOMBSHELL TO MOM HELL!” reads another. It gets worse, believe it or not; much worse.
The copy is cruel, with lines like “growing exponentially by the minute” and “her frame is expanding in every direction.”
A “celebrity weight coach and body expert” named Alicia Hunter estimates that 5’2″ Kim now weighs 185 lbs, so that number on the cover is just a guess. “She looks like she’s put on an insane amount of weight in such a short time,” Hunter snaps. “It’s likely around 65 lbs. so far!” The key word is likely. And also: So what? Are you her doctor?
An “insider” claims that Kim can’t stop eating, and is “obsessed with food.” She wakes up every morning, hits the gym, has a protein smoothie, and by noon, her “hunger cravings hit full force.” OMG HUNGRY PREGNANT WOMAN WANTS FOOD CALL THE COPS.
Apparently Kim loves Pinkberry (full of sugar) and pasta and pastries, but “She cries every other day, and she’s scared to see how big she’ll get.” Oh, and someone who is possibly camped out in her kitchen cabinets claims: “She’s been waking up in the middle of the night and binge eating.”
Concern trolls be concerntrollin’. Here’s are some actual phrases printed in this issue: “her shapely derriere has morphed into a sagging, dimply blob”; “her rear is covered in cellulite”; “she sleeps in them and works out in them… the only time she takes off the Spanx is in the shower”; “she even broke down to her mom, saying ‘These stretch marks are ruining my body!’” And, of course: “She feels disgusting and doesn’t want Kanye to see her naked.”
Sigh. Don’t worry, though: After giving birth, Kim plans “to get everything lifted,” and will “spend millions to get her figure back.” According to unnamed sources. Epic and vicious. – via Jezebel.
