A Much-Needed Intervention

December 8th, 2008 by Evil Beet


On the left: 90210 starlet Jessica Stroup at the Teen Choice Awards in August.

On the right: Jessica at KIIS FM’s Jingle Ball this weekend.

Much improved.

She looks gorgeous and healthy and like a woman now, instead of like a starving child. Whoever sat this girl down and talked some sense into her, well done. See? These things don’t always have to turn into tragedies.

    Maybe she was inspired by this site and got on your Vegan Bean curd and Tufurkey diet

    i think she looks better before the weight gain… However, she is still really skinny in the second photo and i doubt this is what real women in general look like, this is a woman on a strick regime who knows if she blobbed out she wouldn’t get the parts.

    she looks so much better. she is still incredibly thin, but looks a lot less like she is going to break. she seriously looks scary in the first one.

    she looks human now. i’m glad she is over it. she looks hot, still too thin yeah but hot. i mean, have u seen those legs??

  5. JoeX says:

    Doesn’t a tan make you larger somehow . . . or is just the camera that does that?

  6. lolly says:

    i think its the tan, and the angle, and the first one is probably doctored like nicole richie CLAIMS the photos of her looking too skinny were.

  7. mimi in mo says:

    I thought a tan made you look thinner.

  8. Lauren says:

    I think she looks great!

  9. Hallie says:

    Woohoo! That ‘before’ picture is disgusting.

  10. Lynn says:

    she needs to put n another 10 pounds

  11. Tracy says:

    She does look gorgeous now.

  12. Stina says:

    Yeah. The after picture is MUCH better. She looks healthy. She looks like a skeleton in the before one.

  13. Sharon says:

    There’s no doctoring, and it’s not the tan or the angle. Her legs are positioned almost exactly the same way. There’s obviously more meat/muscle on her now than in August.
    Still not enough, as others have said, but more. And her face looks a bit fuller too. Definitely an improvement. She’s a beautiful girl, and really needs to develop a better self-image than she’s had up to this point.

  14. Kate says:

    i always thought she was so gorgeous on 90210, but yeah- WAY too “scary skinny.” she looks A-M-A-Z-I-N-G now.

  15. ThatLisa says:

    tans usually make people look slimmer.

    too bad that she put on much needed weight AND ten layers of self tanner. oh well. I’d rather have her orange than skeletal.

  16. gia says:

    i think she looked very skinny before, but not horrible…her legs looked really long & model-ish. she looks very different now…her face looks better fuller. i wonder if she just lost the weight on a whim because she gained it back fairly quickly. maybe it was just the start of an eating disorder & someone intervened at the perfect time.

  17. Wendie says:

    That other chick Shanae or whatever her name is…she’s looking better too.

  18. Leo says:

    wow she looks gorgeous now
