An Expert’s Take on Models Eating Cotton Balls to Stay Skinny

[BlueGin]

Say what???

****************************************************************

It's no surprise when a new diet plan takes over the modeling world, considering we've heard of everything from the Master Cleanse to the Tapeworm diet, but the latest diet fad (or breaking news, rather) among models is just downright disturbing. When we read that Bria Murphy, Eddie Murphy's daughter and aspiring model, revealed that some models have turned to eating cotton balls dipped in orange juice to feel full on virtually zero calories, we were beyond shocked. There's incredible pressure on models to be thin, especially during busy times like fashion week, but eating non-food items found in your medicine cabinet and dipping them in juice takes things to an entirely new low. After picking our jaws up from the floor, we turned to Marissa Lippert, dietician and nutritionist at Nourish NYC, to get her take on the latest weight loss trend. Read on to learn about the scary ramifications of this diet.

Now before you wimmen start blaming us for your desire to be thin you have to realize that while yes we like you slim, we don't want you anorexic slim.

It's the Fashion Industry that likes Anorexia. It's the Gay Fashion Designer that likes Anorexic wimmen and why is that? Because anorexic wimmen look like 14 year old boys.

That's why.

Eh...taking such drastic measures for a man ( who apparently IS that shallow) or a job ( such as a model) is a huge waste of time and energy. Problem being... you are only "new" and "exciting" for a short time. There will always be another girl just as pretty and just as skinny to take your place. Just eat the damn Ice cream!!

They really should reopen the concentration camps and rename them rehab for models not losing weight.

I think cotton balls have the life span of a twinkie these days...they ain't even made of "cotton" anymore.

It's the orange juice I take issue with. Way to ruin a perfectly good cotton ball.

Orange juice with tissue. I think you're on to something there.
