Yes, we all know she's petite--but could Kristin Chenoweth really weigh just 88 pounds, as US magazine alleges?

Well they got that figure from Kristin herself, I don't think she would lie about it. And for someone who is 4' 10", 88 lbs. is right at the underweight/normal weight line, so looking at her body I could totally see her being 88 lbs.

Supposedly, it's right in the healthy range.

That being said, I'm 4'11" as well, and I'm probably considered "morbidly obese" according to these numbers. =/

Pretty much everyone is obese by the BMI scale, even if they don't look it. It is kind of ridiculous.

Cheno refers to herself as having a "muffin top". And we wonder why people hate their bodies? Great role model there Cheno.

Who asked her to be a role model? Better yet, who considers her their role model?

A lot of teenage girls idolize her. I used to back in the day.

So you would prefer she lie and pretend everything is perfect and never struggles with her body image? Do you want a role model or a fantasy?

You're 5'5 and 88lbs? You're severely underweight, honey.

Disneybroadwayfan -- unless your head is filled with helium, you should really consider having a cheese burger....and fries!

No one asked her to be a role model. However, lots of teenage girls and LGBT teens love her. There's nothing wrong with expressing insecurity-everyone deals with that. HOWEVER to post bikini photos in which you look svelte and fit and claim to have a "muffintop". Well, youre just a f@#king moron. For real.

I can never figure out how you're going to come down on how you feel about someone or what barometer you're going to use.

Ummm...no. According the numbers linked above, a BMI of 17.4 to 21.2 are ideal... So basically, anyone with any body fat or muscle at all is obese? That's funny, because in studying for my 3 nutrition degrees, I was always taught that a BMI of 18.5-25 is the healthy range (which is controversial in and of itself).

At 88 lbs (if that is in fact her true weight) and 4'11" her BMI is 17.8, which is considered to be below the healthy weight range, contrary to the above website.

Enough skinny shaming. Who are you to tell a woman what she should or shouldn't weigh?

Phyl-do you need to? :)

Im not skinny shaming-she is shaming herself. Flaunting her very nice body while trashing it. It's just cloying.

No wonder that lighting equipment knocked her for a loop.
At 88lbs a flashlight could do her damage.
Is it really possible to be an adult at 88 lbs?

Yes, it is possible for an adult to weigh 88 pounds. Is it healthy? Probably not, unless they're very short.

And for those using BMI as a barometer for whether someone is healthy or not...don't. It is at best a faulty measure of someone's "health" and at worst just completely inaccurate. There's more that goes into what is a "healthy" or "normal" weight for a particular person besides their height.

Guys, this is my natural weight. I have cerebral palsy, so that plays a huge role on my weight. Trust me, I eat really well and often, and no matter what, I still maintain my weight. Plus, my back surgery didn't help either.

This thread is appalling. Have none of you ever heard of eating disorders or body dysmorphia? It's not exactly a new concept... You'd be amazed at how some people's physical self-image can be warped. Not saying that this is the case w/ Cheno. But clearly we're discussing body image issues, and whether a person looks a certain way "naturally" or not, it's completely reprehensible to judge someone because they have physical insecurities.
