Pass The Oreos

May 8th, 2008 by GiGi

I’m glad to see that Julianne Moore and I have something in common. We’re both hungry all the time.

Here’s Julianne’s comments on her diet……

“I still battle with my deeply boring diet of, essentially, yogurt and breakfast cereal and granola bars. I hate dieting. I hate having to do it to be the ‘right’ size. I’m hungry all the time. I think I’m a slender person, but the industry apparently doesn’t. All actresses are hungry all the time, I think.”

Of course, if someone would pay me the salary that Julianne enjoys, I might consider her diet. I wonder what my Oreo’s would taste like dipped in yogurt?

Julianne’s comments bring to mind that many actresses and models strive continuously to maintain the image that the world of cinema and fashion dictate.

Every day, we’re bombarded by thousands of images of svelte, slim, 110-pound, beautiful women. On TV and in films, billboards, and magazines, the images of women are all based on what an industry thinks we should look like rather than the real world. Sadly these actresses and models are the only role models for young women.
