31 opinions for Is Kelly Clarkson Too Fat?

  I knew there was a reason I avoided Vitamin Water!

  I think Kelly Clarkson looks great the way she is, and so does Jordin Sparks. These people need to be encouraged to be THEMSELVES, not some cookie cutter image.

  Those that are the real thing — including Frenchie Davis and Fantasia — are busy doing the work, not worrying about how other (unhappy) people view their body images. Hopefully, Kelly and Jordin will do the same.

  Agreed- they’re both fabulous, and role models at that. Ironic that Vitamin Water should deny Kelly Clarkson an endorsement deal for being “too fat” when their product is essentially sugar water with a few vitamins thrown in.

  i think whoever thinks that kelly clarkson is fat is being ridiculous. She is perfect the way she is, okay so shes not the skinniest but thats better because shes not like every other famous person out there who look annorexic but shes NOT FAT! so this media needs to get some glasses or something or just shut up because she doesnt need to go on a diet and doesnt need to loose weight shes perfect exactly how she is so everone who thinks otherwise just dont talk kthnx bye;)

  Kelly Clarkson is just fine why is everybody fussing about her weight? Oh I know its becuz shes not like most of hollywoods anorexic starlets…well guess what ppl shes not fat so why doesnt the media and all the magazines just quiet making her feel bad about her weight…their just jealous cuz they’ll never be as successfull as her. I thought that advertisements were supposed to be about real ppl the same about commercials. Well their not becuz they only show skinny ppl never normal becuz they want good looking ppl to endorse their deals. And they are just making everyone else who doesnt look like that feel like crap.Kelly Clarkson would look good no matter what cuz she has an awesome personality even though i havent met her but she seems like the kind of person that would be fun to hang out with. I would do anything to meet her. U ROCK KELLY keep doing it!!!!

  I think Kelly is such a beautiful girl! The previous opinions are exactly right. I mean seriously what DOES the world want? We have magazines with all this hype about the stars with eating disorders, then we have a star who looks healthy and beautiful and they tear her down because she isn’t stick skinny.

  KELLY, you are a wonderful role model, an amazing artist, and a beautiful person. Do your thing girl because you ROCK!

  NO she is not TOO fat. what kind of stupid question is that?
  TOO fat for what? You cant be too fat to sing.
  I think she looks absolutely incredible I can’t stand girls who are too skinny like carrie underwood.
  I dont think you have a brain in your head Kristen King that has got to be one of the most annoying stupid things I have ever heard, “too fat” for what? god you are such a jealous moron. kelly could gain 50 lbs and still look 10 times as good as you.

• Jordan Bratman

  Kristen King you are patheticly stupid for saying such a thing. It makes no sense. how can she be “too fat” ? you have to be pretty damn fat to be unhealthy fat. so what the hell are you trying to say huh?

• Kristen King

  Well, James/Jordan, I would thank you for reading the blog, but based on your comments you clearly DON’T read the blog: you read the title and then respond with insults and anger, under two different names, 1 minute apart, from the same IP address, rather than reading what it is that you’re responding to.

  If you HAD read the post, you would have seen the part where I said this:

  But that doesn’t mean I think she’s fat! In fact, I’m relieved that she’s putting on a few pounds. I think she looks better now than she did not that long ago, when she was too darned skinny.

  You probably also would have seen the part where I complained about Jordin Sparks being called fat, too, and referred to both Kelly and Jordin as having normal women’s bodies.

  And I’m the “patheticly stupid” one who’s a “moron”? Okay then!

  I encourage disagreement and discussion in the comments, but you’re just being a jerk to be a jerk — and you didn’t even read the flipping post! If you HAD, you’d know what I was trying to say because I said it: I don’t think Kelly Clarkson is too fat.

  And incidentally, being outside your frame’s healthy body mass index is unhealthy, period, whether you’re over or under it, and you don’t have to be “pretty damn fat” or “pretty damn skinny” to want to consider making some adjustments for your body to function at maximum health. BUT that’s a wide range, and the point I’m making is that Kelly is inside that range–she’s not fat.

  She would be fat, however, if she gained 50 lbs. So would I. So would you, most likely. That doesn’t mean she/I/you couldn’t still do well the things we do well, but it WOULD mean that we were less healthy.

  So in the future, try reading the post before you start spewing hatred. And also try being a little sneakier if you’re going to double post under two different names. Otherwise, you just look like an idiot.

  She looks good the way she is. If you look at her in a bikini, she is small up top and in the waist. She is bigger through the hips and rear. Look at her and then look at J Lo… why are we more accepting when it’s an ethnic women? We should accept curves on all women.

  […] all, isn’t Vitamin Water the company rumored to have ditched Kelly because she was “too fat“? […]

  If you are eating more calories a day than you are burning off, you will be a chunkster in a short time. Kelly is tiptoeing toward the land of chunky. Even without saying that she is too fat, it’s still important to comment on her diet, which I’m certain is horrible. I won’t say she’s too fat, but I guarantee you she is eating a lot of food that is bad for her body. Stop eating crap food and your body will normalize.

  NO WAY is she too fat. She’s just about the only celeb I can look up to you size-wise. If she’s too fat I’m well on my way to being too fat as well. I’m fifteen, so atm, of course, I’m worrying a lot about my weight. When people turn round & say someone like Kelly is too big, are we supposed to do a Richie & turn into stick insects?

  i think that kelly clarkson LOST A LOT OF PONDS.because in the a picture she was a little bigger then now . i also think she is trying very hard to lose it . you go girl!!! i know she can lose all of the ponds. if she just work very hard and then she will be back in her normal weight. i don’t think you should be making fun of kelly .because she is still the same person in side .fat or not she will always alway be the same person as we know kelly clarkson the first american idol.

• Lauren Medina

  kelly clarkson is the same person in side .she will never change. fat or not she is still the beautiful kelly clarkson we know as the first american idol. YOU GO KELLY!!!!

  i think that kelly should actually gain weight she would look better around 160-170 lbs i think. she looks better bigger, so let the eating continue for kelly i would like to see her belly hang over her jeans a little bit u know.

• Rachel

  Cogan, I am the exact same height as Kelly, although we carry our weight in different places, but 160-170lbs on a 5′3 1/2ft frame tends to make us look pretty chunky a good weight for our height is about 135 to 140lbs. In that pic my guess is she is about 165-170lbs. I use to weight that plus about 40 (210) so I know. She doesn’t like to weigh herself, nor do I, but she does a lot of running and that is what I did mostly to loose 60 lbs and the lowest I got down to was 150, but I wore a size 8 and everyone thought I weighed 130 because muscle tone tends to make you look smaller, but is heavy, and I have always been a solid girl even as a baby. In elementary school I would be the right size for my height and age, but I would not weigh what ppl thought to look at me or what I should for my height and age, but I was always very healthy and active. I remember the lowest my blood pressure ever was when I was at my heaviest actually, 110/60 the highest its been is 130/80, now it stays between 120 and 122/70.
  Take care :)

  Of course all women who don’t take care of themselves with serious workout regimines like to say she is beutiful, etc…wake up, scientifically she is overweight based on her BMI (5ft 4, 150lbs+…go to any BMI calculator online). People want to think its ok to just munch down crap fast food (like she does) and not excercise and thhink its ok if they have some extra fat. It’s not. And guys don’t like it at all, except the weird ones. Finally, she a celebrity with millions of $$$’s …she should show some self control and get herself a serious coach. This isn’t about looking anorexic. She is fat, not just on my perceptions, but based on her BMI.

• Kels
  Dec 24, 2007 at 7:37 pm

  Okay “fitness 2″, I work out daily. I also do my best to eat healthy… however, I’m not the skinniest person in the world. I also had a teacher who by looking at her you wouldn’t think she got up and ran five miles every morning. But she did. Do you know what Kelly Clarkson’s diet consists of? Probably not. Do you know how much she excercises? Probably not. And without that information you have no room to judge her no matter what her BMI is. Some people have times where they struggle with their weight. Some peoples’ weight fluctuates consistantly… Kelly’s weight tends to fluctuate. I think she looks good. If she is eating healthy and excercising … good for her!! If she isn’t I hope she starts. Bottom line: I don’t think you know her diet and excercise plan… so don’t act like you do.

  sorry every one but have you tacken a look at her before you comented on her kelly is FAT she needs to stop eating sweets or she is going to BLOW up. I saw a picture of her online i have to say shes hot but her belly is just sticking out and it looks like the jeans she is wearing are about to explode. if she keeps it up when she gets pregnant she wont grow at all because her belly will so big already.

  omg!! ..who likes skinny ppl??? I mean ..anorexic ppl ..?? nobody ..personally ..I don`t! ..So ..Kelly ..is beautiful just the way she is..I`m sick and tired of these covers who shows skinny celebs ..and they`re giving a bad examples for ppl[girls(women)] ..I mean ..:”oh look..she`s skinny ..this is the way I should look.. to ppl like me..” ..so that girl ..who`s normally ..thinks that celeb on the cover ..is great ..but it isn`t ..!!! and when appears a pic with a normal person[at the figure->kelly] ..and all that words about her ..of course the others think she`s fat.. that is the media ..who sometimes ..bad influences ppl ..
  let me tell u something else: everyone who`s a lill’ chuby ..is considered “anormal” right?
  but ..what if ..all women ..ppl..were chuby? then ..the skinniers were considered anormal ..

  the point of what I`m saying ..is that Kelly ..is a beautiful girl ..who looks very normal like ..us ..[not like the celebs] ..someone said previous ..something very true ..that the magazines shows celebs with eating disorders ..and they comment on them ..but when sees Kelly ..who`s a healthy person ..throw uglly word about her ..so ..what should us ..teenagers think?[I`m 15 ..so ..I don`t know ..but I`m totally against anorexic ppl] ..that being anorexic is good ..or bad?or being healthy is bad?[or good :P]
  So ..people ..stop comment on Kelly ..because she`s a gorgeous person!!

  Kelly looks amazing. The only reason she doesnt care is because she used to be anorexic and bulimic. She almost ruined her life. I feel the pressure to stay thin is all around and she is my rold model.
