An idea: body type celebrity examples

Don't know about you, but I like visual examples. Many different body shape systems use celebrities to show how the shapes look like. I just thought that I could make a list with celebrities who represent all 5 YLF shapes (and secondary types too). It's harder than I thought, because many pictures are photoshopped and celebrities tend to lie about their measurements. I couldn't find examples for some shapes and I'm sure that I'm wrong somewhere. Feel free to correct me

Here is what I've made so far:

Hourglass - Sophia Loren
Hourglass/IT - Catherine Zeta-Jones
Hourglass/pear - Kelly Brook
Hourglass/apple - Jennifer Hudson
Pear - Alicia Keys
Pear/rectangle - Trinny Woodall (although I believe that her rectangle tendencies are an effect of being tall and skinny)
Pear/hourglass - Beyonce
Apple - Roseanne Barr
Rectangle - Anne Hathaway
Rectangle/hourglass - Gwyneth Paltrow
Rectangle/IT - Cameron Diaz
IT - Demi Moore
IT/hourglass - Tyra Banks
IT/rectangle - Jessica Alba (she claims to have 34-24-34 measurements :D)

Wow, Itari. What a great list! I will have to look at photos of everyone to be sure, but I think your list is really accurate! The only one I'm not sure about now is Jennifer Hudson because that girl is looking amazing these days and perhaps losing her apple tendencies. I don't know if you get any Weight Watchers ads, but look them up online.

Wow. Just looked at new Jennifer Hudson's pictures and you're right! She looks amazing. I'm moving her to hourglass section!

I know, right? I mean. Dang. She's always been beautiful but drop-dead gorgeous.

Where did you learn your English? It's impeccable.

Oh, I learned English at school. I have a knack for languages, I guess. You know, I've never been to an English-speaking country and I'm sure that my English is not perfect, but I'm trying hard to be better

It's pretty darn close to perfect! I love languages.

I actually think with this forum, the real life examples are so much better than celebrities I agree though that Jennifer Hudson looks like a completely different person!
