She looks anorexic in that picture.

Bobble head doll is always the tell.

They can't discern any more what's a healthy weight, since nowadays healthy is not what you normally see! Norm does not equal health.

So then they look at a healthy person, and freak out that they're too thin.

It becomes a vicious circle, because people will more easily slide into the overweight category, thinking that overweight is healthy because it's the norm.

Mind-boggling.

Nicole Kidman has a BMI in the range of normal.

Do you?

I 'know' she has a healthy BMI because I've performed hundreds of caliper tests on women and men over the years and I know what healthy looks like and doesn't. Nicole Kidman's BMI isn't unhealthy; however the people posting here to say she is are, possibly, suffering some mental disorder.

It says her weight is 105. Her height is 5’11 according to at least a few posters here. That is a BMI of 14.6, which is nowhere near normal.

Idiot.

NP. There is no way that her weight is 105 lbs, this is someone as clueless as you estimating her weight. She's about 120-125 lbs and that's the lowest someone of her height can go without being hospitalized.

Oh i see. You are just saying you “know” her BMI is healthy based on nothing at all. I’m at least basing my opinion on what is actually written.

Shouldn’t you be researching doctors for your osteoporosis? I guarantee you if you don’t yet have it, you will.

Well you can take your calipers and shove them up your ass. If she’s indeed 120 pounds that’s a 16.7 BMI. And if she 125 it’s 17.4. BOTH are underweight.

I'm sure she is underweight. But you can be a little BMI range -- or a little over BMI range! -- and still be healthy. She looks to me to be underweight and healthy. She probably does have a pretty restricted, but healthy diet (no way a post-menopausal woman keeps that stomach and still eats carbs/dairy/sugar, sadly) -- it might be for health reasons, or for personal preference, or because of industry pressure, we can't really know. I used to be chronically under BMI, just because of my metabolism and genetics. I'm now a little over BMI because of menopause. But my diet and exercise and general health are still pretty much identical to what it was when I was "underweight."
Also, the BMI scale is pretty off for people that are unusually tall or short. And people have all different sorts of bodies, and clearly hers never was, and never will be, "average" in any sort of way.

As to her weight in those photos - it's insane that anyone is calling her too thin or anorectic. She has plenty of muscle and fat pad over it in those photos.

Her body looks like mine did from my teens until my late 20s, before I allowed myself to surrender to stress and emotional eating and gained a ton like so many American women do today. If I still had the same body shape I did in my 20s now in my 50s, I would look and feel fantastic - just as Nicole does.

The bitter truth is that this board is full of overweight and obese women (and men) who hate what they've allowed to happen to their bodies through their own poor choices, and feel compelled to attack someone who put the effort in to stay in the healthy weight range for her height even as she aged into her middle 50s.

The only ugly and derangement going on here is from those posters, not Nicole Kidman.

And for the record - I've worked with eating disordered people for years. I know what anorexia looks like. Kidman is not that.

Just to add - the healthy approach would be to look at Kidman (or Aniston, or JLo, et al.) and say, clearly it is physiologically possible to stay lean and fit well into middle age and beyond, so I need to either accept wholeheartedly that I am choosing to be fat, or get off my ass, shut off the streaming service and the doom and judgment scrolling and get myself out for walks, weight training, and learning to eat a healthy nourishing diet while I nourish my mental crap with something other than food and alcohol.

The difference is that JLo looks healthy. Kidman doesn’t.

Hospitalized for what exactly? So hospitals are full of supermodels now? I agree she is NOT 105lbs., not even close. But your statement about being 120-125 lbs is also crazy.

What's your point? Super-models are healthy and hardly ever 105 lbs unless they are Kate Moss, who was short for a model, 5'7.

Underweight is not same as anorexic, you know that, right? You are literally claiming the women has a mental illness.

She looks fine. Leave her alone. She's clearly a tall and naturally thin body type. Sorry folks they exist and I know it burns you all up to the ends of the earth. Life isn't fair.

[Anonymous]

Actually, it looks like she’s STOPPED the procedures and is aging more naturally now. She is 56 years old, FFS. The article is juvenile.

The amount of weight and body shaming on this 6 pages long thread is disgusting. I dare someone to post a thread shaming an overweight actress/singer/performer. It would be taken down immediately.

So true.

This photo was attached to an advertisement on another website I was just reading, and I thought immediately of this thread which I had visited this morning. Look at this grocery shopping mom from the 50s/60s - she's ANOREXIC!!





People's notions of what is a normal looking body is totally skewed by the 70% of overweight and obese fellow citizens we see around us every day - or maybe in the mirror.

Nicole Kidman isn't anorexic. She's not even underweight.

I'm 5'9, 125lbs. Not one doctor has ever told me I'm underweight or that they were concerned about my weight. I'm not skeletal looking or gaunt looking in any way.

What are you on about? That woman weighs more than NK, and she's a chain smoking thirty-year-old. Your the one with dysmorphia if you can't see it. But by all means find yourself a time machine to the 50s, and enjoy the culture.

+1, and it's amazing to me how the body shaming takes the exact same form as it would if the person in question was overweight. It's the concern trolling "oh I'm just worried about her health" BS. No you are not. You hate her body because it provokes some kind of shame response in YOU.

I don't know how Hollywood actress of any size deal with this amount of scrutiny and criticism. I've been body shamed before (what woman hasn't) but the relentlessness of this is so disturbing. I don't even care about Nicole Kidman really! But it's so gross to encounter so many people (likely mostly women) scrutinizing another woman's body in this detail and with such nasty, critical tone.
