Uptight and outta sight

A couple of women movie stars have spoken out in support of Jennifer Love Hewitt and the would-be-funny-if-it-wasn't-giving-some-young-woman-somewhere-an-eating-disorder notion that she has anything less than a lovely body just because she is anything more than a size zero.



I feel somewhat validated in telling you that one of those women was Anne Hathaway, about whom you all know my feelings.

"[As an actress], most of the year, your body is your own. But to be ridiculed for it is upsetting. But to also have to defend it or explain it or rejoice in it or put it down, or to be expected to have a public opinion about it... I don't understand when that happened."


(the other was Rosario Dawson)
