Why do pop stars today have so much trouble controlling their weight?

[Lightspeed-Lemon]

Britney, Christina Aguilera, Demi Lovato, Jessica Simpson, Selena Gomez, Kelly Clarkson, Lady Gaga - they've all had times when they performed overweight or even fat. In the previous generation, you never saw Madonna, Kylie Minogue or Michael Jackson get fat. Famous stars can afford the best food and personal trainers. So why are singers getting fat now?

Who cares, a singer's shape shouldn't matter, only their talent

These people are in showbiz and set an example for others. Lose the weight!

Yes, there may be nothing wrong with being fat, but why do you think it is happening more now?

[KAZ-2Y5]

none of those women are fat. and what the hell? you only post about women stars gaining weight not men? i just noticed that kelly clarkson just had a baby and demi lovato just beat bulimia so don't judge they are human and will have problems like the rest of us
it is not easy being pregnant and having a tiny human growing inside of you and then you get judged for not losing the weight in a month
while demi had an eating disorder where she got judged left and right by the media

Voted for A. Go see what Demi Lovato has to say about weight problems.

Its because of their lifestyle they always eat out, drink and party so they put on weight but then they hire a personal trainer and get skinny so its no worry the real example of celebrity doing it right is llcoolj he eats right works out regularly and stays away from clubs and bars

[loba96]

Kelly had a baby, Britney is just not toned... And I had never seen lady gaga look like that...

[Cxxlin]

Selena Gomez? What is your idea of 'fat' she's not fat at all.

[Succcesssfulll]

It shouldn't matter. Besides, I don't think the people you listed are overweight.

[Drooogie4]

Because they're people too.
It happens.
