90210 Stars Skin & Bones

One would think that weight would be a personal issue. Not in Hollywood, particularly on the set of CW's new hit show 90210.

While Entertainment Weekly reports none of the new 90210 stars weighing any more than 110 pounds (AnnaLynne McCord [Naomi] weighs in at 110 pounds for her 5'7" frame), two of its stars in particular (Shenae Grimes [Annie] at 5'3" and 90 pounds and Jessica Stroup [Silver] at 5'8" and no more than 105 pounds) are very underweight. While it is possible that these girls could be naturally thin, they could use a Super Size Meal or two along with some other weight-gain regimen. It's also possible that pressure to stay thin due to the common saying that the camera adds 10 pounds, long hours, and wardrobe sizes ranging from 00-2 are contributing to the extreme thinness. But, whatever the reason, get these girls a Super Size Meal. Seriously. Or, as Gossip Girl's Penn Badgley stated, "a double cheeseburger or something."

Perhaps laying off the cigarettes, if not quitting entirely, would help too. After all, cigarettes do act as an appetite suppressant. (What would I know though? I've never been a smoker, nor do I plan to become one!)

But there is good news. Rumor has it action may be taken to ensure the stars gain a few pounds. The boys of the show have considered an intervention to help the girls put on some weight. Let's hope it works, eh?
