Lohan: 'Overweight' and 'Wholesome'Lindsay's skewed self-image; Plus, news on Jake, George, Beyoncé, Justin, Madonna, BenGar and a shorn Portman ...
by Kat GiantisMSN EntertainmentMay 16, 2005
Does this look like someone who needs to drop a few pounds? Didn't think so. But Lindsay Lohan believes that if she went arm to twiglike arm with some of her fellow streamlined starlets, she'd look like she was carrying extra baggage.
"... Compared to a lot of actresses my age, I'm actually overweight," the alarmingly slimmed-down teen queen tells Teen Vogue. "There are so many really, really thin girls out there."
Lohan has dismissed eating disorder whispers, attributing her skin-and-bones bod to a loss of "baby fat," and she tells the magazine she "feels good" about her new figure because "you can fit into more things."

Can we talk about how sexy her voice is?

Which is totally creepy! To think that we have these values floating around that are totally aribitrary, completely detached from anyone's actual desires, and completely off the leash in terms of anyone's making any effort to do anything about them. We've somehow encoded everyone with this skinny-is-good mentality even where we don't, in specific practice, believe that to be the case, and so any woman who gets looked at a reasonable amount is likely to start dedicating herself to that abstract good (and will feel better being the in-control over-thin horror than the beloved squeezy thing!), even as it has precisely the opposite effect on men and on whatever other women aren't equally-encoded enough with the same line to congratulate others just for having managed it. It'd be hilarious if it weren't so sad.

This is going to sound totally male-gaze and over-pervy but what the hell: Lindsay-fans saddened by this recent development may wish to switch horses and start perving instead on the lovely Allison Munn:

But so point being I think there's an element of, well, body-modification that's just inherently addictive. Like people say about tattoos and piercings and such, really: once people succeed at the actually pretty difficult task of remaking their bodies (whether it's losing weight or building muscle or whatever else), it becomes some kind of weird experimental goal to do it again, to master the body, to exert your hard-won control over it. So I suppose there's a level on which the painfully-thin actress is a lot like the grotesquely-overmuscled gym dude.
