What people don't understand is that calling someone too skinny is the same as calling someone too fat; it's not a nice feeling.

Some people are born skinny, and that's just the way it is. You can't point a finger at them and say they're ill or anorexic. It isn't fair to people born that way.

I don't know who decided that skinny was more appealing than not skinny. It seems arbitrary.

I'm not skinny for the wrong reasons. It's not because I'm bulimic or anorexic or doing drugs. Compared to a lot of actresses my age, I'm actually overweight.

I mean, everyone walks into the gym on day one skinny or fat. Arnold Schwarzenegger walked into the gym skinny at 15 or 16, and I was that way, too.

Lord knows I'm not the poster child for eating right and exercising, so I don't want to give that impression at all! This is the same person who people have watched have a weight problem in her teens, so come on!

Just because people are calling you skinny doesn't mean I'm like, 'Yay!' No! You're telling me I don't look right. This is me, this is my body - I have accepted it.

As a kid, I was always very thin, and I kind of didn't know that I was skinny.

Fat people are so rarely included in visual culture that fat is perceived as a blot on the landscape of sleek and slim.

I was always such a skinny kid, so I kind of grew up with an 'I hate skinny' mentality.
