Do celebrities lie about their weight often?

Question

Purely curiousity, because i was recently reading this article that revealed a lot of celebrities weights, and all of them seemed lighter than me, and i'm a lot smaller than them, not just bones but like height and obvious weight differences. And I know you all like to answer with "why do you care" or "get a life." But it's something that honestly sparked my interest and curiousity, so any answers would be appreciated. :)

Answer 1

All day, every day. It's part of the gimmick.

Answer 2

I think most of them would lie about their weight!  AND their age!

You have to remember that the camera adds quite a few kilos and these women that look all curvy are actually tiny little people in real life.  Like Scarlett Johannson always looks like she is busting out of her clothes but I bet you she looks perfect in person.

Someone like Nicole Ritchie can photograph well, but then in person I bet she is disgustingly normal and too thin.

Answer 3

Yes, many slender celebrities lie about their weight -- but many lie UP. They actually weigh less than they say! They don't want to be known as anorexic. Unless you stand right next to a celeb, it's hard to tell how tiny they actually are. I have the weight and  measurements of some celebs (for custom clothing) and you wouldn't believe it. A popular breakfast, lunch and dinner is a few almonds, literally. Yikes!
