I just recently read a post in the general discussions about how so many people look at unhealthy celebrity bodies as the ideal body shape and standard. We're all too aware of the anorexic, drug abusers splashed across the gossip pages, but I wanted to see which celebrities most people admire physically.

I just wanted to say that I think Catherine Heigl has a great body, and it's close enough to my body frame and size that I can look up to her as an ideal. She's curvy, tall, and looks athletic. I love Grey's anatomy like a lot of women, and she looks normal when compared to Ellen Pompeo and Sandra Oh.

I admire her because not only is she beautiful, but she's got some meat on her bones.

Who do you guys admire?

    Jessica Biel, Angela Bassett, Madonna, Mary J. Blige...pretty much all the celebs who are a healthy body weight.

    Jullian Michaels and Kim Lyons They are the Biggest Loser girls.
    Jullian is proof positive that people can be fit with work.
    I also like the dancers on Dancing with the stars.
    You can not be unhealthy and dance like that.

    Sarah Johansson is considered a "curvy" lady. Not what I have in mind as curvy, but definitely a healthy weight celebrity to admire.

    I have been wracking my brain and haven't come up with anything yet...... It seems wrong that it should be this hard.

    However, I just watched CNN Headline News report about this and there were many kudo's given to Tyra Banks - especially following the hurling of insults she received after being photographed in her swimsuit. She then wore the swimsuit on her show and stated that she felt that as a 5'10" woman weighing 160 pounds she was attractive and sexy. I admire her for doing that.

    I should say that I think that Kate Winslet is gorgeous and I love her figure. So maybe that would be it.

    If I could trade with anyone, it would be Serena Williams.

    Same here! She has a good deal of muscle mass and a great deal of athleticism. :happy:

    I wouldn't have thought of Kate Winslet, but you're absolutely right! She is curvy, not skinny. I might have her body type, if not her size. Unfortunately, I'm considerably (like 30 years) older and body parts have a tendency to shift downward as we get older:laugh:

    I feel like something is wrong with me because the celebrity I would want to look like is Eva Longoria and she's like a size 00.

    I prefer the "curvier" celeb bodies - especially Scarlett Johansson, Kate Winslet, Catherine Zeta Jones and Selma Hayek.

    Oh - and I also want to say how much I admire Jennifer Love Hewitt and how she handled those "fat" photos of herself. In my opinion, she looked fine - in fact, I'd say if she were a "regular" woman on the beach others would have been admiring her healthy figure. Just because she is a celebrity she is not allowed to have a few extra pounds or mushy areas? Please!

    I think that Eva Mendes is an ideal body type. She is curvy, actually has a butt, and she doesn't look sick. She looks like she eats but exercises too. =)=)

    Oh and I have to throw this one in - Britney Spears pre-K-Fed. Back in the day she had a killer body. Definitely one I would strive for.

    Adriana Lima, Mischa Barton, Kate Bosworth, Angelia Jolie
    also i don't think Ellen Pompeo has an unreastic body. She claims she eats 3000 calories a day.

    Hmmm... I admire Tyra. She is beautiful and looks great even post-top model.

    I also love to watch Jennifer Lopez grow with her little baby belly and I can't wait to see Jessica Alba's baby bump grow.

    I KNOW they won't look nearly as large as I did when I was pregnant but it's still going to be nice to see them grow.

    I think Maria Sharapova has a great body! She looked amazing on the cover of Shape magazine a few months back. Definitely my inspiration!

    Yeah I would die to look like that. She had curves, and rocking muscles, Hey right now I would settle with looking like she does now. It's still better than my blob of a body. But if I had to trade mental health with her to have the body No Way.

    I think Jessica Beil has a great body.

    I'd have to go with Madonna. She's as hard as a rock, nearly 50 and sexy as heck!
