She was certainly a poster child for “Hollywood fat” at the time, which is usually around a size 8 (although I guess it’d be less if you were real short), and she talked a lot about how absurd it was that she was considered fat. And then she lost weight.

I think she was an 8 or 10–I was about a 10 myself at the time and happened to see one of her Titanic dresses in person and my scienterrific analysis of the dress (also known as “eyeballing it”) suggested to me that it would have fit me or at least been pretty close. And James Cameron was a total ass to her about her supposed “weight problem.” I–and all my friends–thought she was smokin’ hot though.

But, but, but, when gravy comes out of the can, it’s brown!

Kate Winselt was a size 4 in Titanic. A bloody size *4* is “larger”? Isn’t this the kind of stupid standard that the author is trying to critizise in other parts of their article?

Doesn’t that get the white out? Oh, is there no defence from the white threat?

Oh, my dog. I ate almonds and parsnips today. Not together, but still.

Whee!

So, you made the potatoes even more delicious, but it’s STILL gonna kill you.
