I think that original photo was photoshopped. This one I dont think was. She seems really skinny in this picture but nothing that I would be to concerned about for a normal thin person. However, she did seem to lose the weight pretty quickly. I think NR has been looking great lately except in the new Us and People (which has that pic in the original post) and she looks a little thinner but I still think overall she looks pretty good.

There is a HUGE difference, and it shows in how you look, between extreme weight loss due to anorexia/bulimia, and healthy dieting and exercise. Believe me, as someone who has had many friends who were either anorexic, bulimic, or doing speed, Lindsey and Nicole are getting skinny the unhealthy way. Let's not make excuses for them and validate their weight loss. As long as there are people in the world who think that being skinny is the key to beauty, we will be dealing with these problems. Remember, in the Middle Ages/Renaissance the epitome of beauty was a person who is on the fat side. Standards of beauty are very much dictated by society (meaning us), and it's up to us to change the standard.
And when the heck did size 6 become "fat"????? One thing I've always disliked about fashion and a lot of people who are very into fashion is a skewed view of the world and what is "normal."
