Celebrities’ bodies are always on display, whether in larger-than-life form on the big screen, parading across glitzy red carpets, or splashed across the pages of glossy gossip rags or fashion mags. Being picked apart is part of the gig some may argue, and celebs’ sizes and weights are often a hot topic being discussed, for better or for worse… usually for the worse.
We watch as our fave celebs get in tip-top shape, gain or lose a significant amount of weight for film or TV roles, have babies and drop the weight in record time (or take a long time to get back to their pre-baby size), and become guinea pigs for the newest diet trends and controversial plastic surgery procedures. Skinny stars are often criticized, but when they gain a few, the nitpicking comes from a new angle. And the curvier or fuller celebs are always in a heated battle to defend their larger size and shape, embracing their bodies as they ought to.
Lots of people try to guess how much their favorite stars weigh. Perhaps it is a way to compare themselves to the rich, fabulous, and famous, or just a matter of sheer curiosity. But it can be tricky to pinpoint a person’s weight, especially with all the retouching done on celebs’ photos, clothing camouflage tricks, and creative makeup techniques that can make celebs look slimmer or more muscular, depending on their goal.
Here are some of everyone’s fave celebs and their alleged weight. Do you think the numbers are accurate? Try to guess the weight of each star before reading each section and see if you can nail their weights within a few pounds.
12 Britney Spears
– 125 lbs.
Pop princess Britney Spears is reported to weigh a healthy 125 lbs. She keeps in great shape by sweating it out during her vigorous stage performances and running after her two rambunctious growing boys. While her weight has fluctuated up and down over the years, Britney seems to be in the best shape of her life these days, and her career is sizzling hot as she performs in Las Vegas. Her reported hunk of a boyfriend must adore his honey’s fit figure, and she most certainly must admire his all the same. Britney wears some super-skimpy stage costumes, so any bulge or bump would stick out like a sore thumb. But Britney takes pride in getting in shape, and the results are obvious. She’s toned, tanned, and taking her fans for the ride of their lives!
11 Beyoncé
– 130 lbs.
Since Beyoncé just gave birth to her twins, her weight is not as it normally would be, but pre-pregnancy, it is reported that the pop star’s weight was about 130 lbs. Beyoncé is adored for her lean and mean body, and we’ve seen nearly all of it when she wears her revealing stage costumes and form-fitting red carpet looks. The “beehive” believes that Beyoncé is a goddess, so no matter her weight, they’d still consider her to be pure perfection. Her famous hubby certainly is in awe of his queen and Bey’s confidence makes her body even more exciting to keep an eye on. While having twins puts a big toll on the body, surely Beyoncé will work her way back to a healthy physique and will be back on the stage showing off her stuff in no time.
10 Amy Schumer
– 150 lbs.
The always hilarious and outspoken comedian and actress, Amy Schumer is certainly not shy about showing off her body or discussing her weight. It is reported that the blond and bold babe is 150 lbs., which seems like an accurate measure. No matter her size, Amy has impressed her throngs of fans with her knack for finding the funny aspects of all areas of life, and her stand-up routines and big screen blockbusters always leave audiences doubled over with rip-roaring laughter. She has spoken about her size in the press and finds that the topic never seems to pertain to men even a fraction as much as it is brought up about Hollywood’s leading ladies. A buck fifty is just nifty for Amy, and she embraces her body with pride and power.
9 Bethenny Frankel
– 115 lbs.
The self-proclaimed “skinnygirl” is a reported 115 lbs. Business mogul and reality TV star, Bethenny Frankel, is a slim-figured mom of one, and her thin frame is often up for conversation in magazines and on TV shows. She seems to be on the move non-stop, and her seemingly stressful way of life as well as her desire for achievement at the highest level makes it easy to see how the svelte celeb remains so slender. She seems to embrace a mindful way of eating and appears to work out, plus the fast pace of NYC must keep Bethenny on her toes and in slim shape. Even if she indulges in daily cocktails, we all know they are Skinnygirl brand, so the extra calories are left out of even the tastiest of drinks.
8 Kourtney Kardashian
– 116 lbs.
The oldest sister of the Kardashian clan is also the most petite, and Kourtney Kardashian allegedly weighs in at a cool 116 lbs. As we’ve all seen on her never-ending reality show, the mom-of-three is very health-conscious, is always eating naturally, and exercises regularly. She has kept her body lean and fit, eats well, and shows her kids how to be healthy by her stellar example. While their dad, Scott, may have some questionable health habits, Kourt is a great role model when it comes to clean eating and keeping active. Now that she has a much younger boyfriend (or at least that’s what the tabloids say), this big sis must want to be in the best shape of her life in order to keep up with her handsome and well-toned “cub.”
7 Sofia Vergara
– 130 lbs.
The vivacious and super-sexy actress, Sofia Vergara, is all about flaunting her feminine shape in elegant and revealing eveningwear and form-fitting clothing. According to reports, the spicy stunner is 130 lbs. She is currently one of the hottest stars on TV at the moment, thanks to the wild success of the hilarious sitcom Modern Family. And thanks to Sofia, thousands of viewers are tuning in week after week to watch the brunette bombshell do her thing on the small screen, not only for her timing and talent, but to see her fab figure. Fans from all over the world embrace Sofia’s sought-after hourglass shape and she knows how to work it for the camera like a real pro! Her hunky hubby surely loves his wife’s breathtaking bod… all 130 pounds of it!
6 Mila Kunis
– 115 lbs.
At one point in her career, actress Mila Kunis whittled her way down to a scant 95 lbs. for a movie role, but she’s more like 115 lbs. regularly. The brunette beauty is petite, so 115 lbs. seems spot-on for the now mom-of-two. Her handsome and talented hubby, Aston Kutcher, towers over his bride, but he is surely smitten with the looks of her healthy body. We’ve seen Mila dazzle on screen for a long time, and over the years it seems like her weight hasn’t fluctuated much, save for the above mention of that drastic weight loss for Black Swan. But at any weight, Mila would still be a marvel, and her talent and personality are what truly make her a star. Although in the superficial world of Hollywood, a slim figure doesn’t hurt.
5 Rihanna
– 137 lbs.
Singing superstar, Rihanna, is reported to be 137 lbs. and loves to show off her lean and curvy body on the performance stage and on the red carpet. She isn’t trying to be stick-thin and embraces her shape with pure confidence and oodles of sex appeal. Fans simply adore the singer’s no-nonsense attitude, high self-esteem, and completely unique style, and Rihanna loves to impress her huge audiences with revealing stage-ready outfits and made-for-the-catwalk ensembles. It seems like everyone is a fan of her body, since she is constantly being photographed on the beach in her skimpy string bikinis. Rihanna doesn’t seem to mind being caught off-guard in her swimming attire, and her relaxed and super-chill attitude shines through. Even if her body were to be criticized by a hater, Rihanna would brush it off and show off even more of her figure the next time she hit the streets to prove them wrong!
4 Taylor Swift
– 125 lbs.
Singing sensation, Taylor Swift, is a tall drink of water, so to speak, but she is on the thinner side, with a reported weight of 125 lbs. She has the body of a model, some say, so her svelte frame is envied by those who covet such a body type. Taylor is one of the most famous and successful pop stars of the day, so her every move is carefully examined, as is her body. But she seems uber-confident in her looks, and often wears short skirts, revealing dresses, and form-fitting outfits on stage, in her music videos, for magazine photo shoots, and on red carpets at awards shows and other events. She is famous (or infamous) for her many boyfriends, but one thing’s for sure, all of them certainly were (and probably still are) fans of Taylor’s sexy looks!
3 Lea Michele
– 113 lbs.
The lovely actress Lea Michele always seems to be in tip-top shape and it is alleged that she weighs 113 lbs. She has impressed us on the small screen with her stellar role on the hit TV-musical show, Glee, and her impressive vocal abilities are as great as her well-received acting chops. Lea embraces a healthy lifestyle, and the proof is in the (fat-free) pudding when you look at her toned physique. Lea is a petite gal, so 113 lbs. appears to be an accurate measurement. Being in the public eye can make an actress and singer well-aware of her body, so perhaps this is part of Lea’s drive for fitness, but with her confidence, she certainly doesn’t seem like someone who would care what others have to say about her looks. But she does look great!
2 Mary-Kate Olsen
– 95 lbs.
Twin Mary-Kate Olsen has always seemed a bit thinner than her sister, although both are quite petite. It is reported that the former actress and business mogul weighs in at a scant 95 lbs., but then again, she is a very small person, so 95 lbs. isn’t totally outrageous. She’s often photographed in loose and baggy clothing, but this look seems to be her go-to style. It would be almost a shock to see the twin on a red carpet in a form-fitting gown or something plunging or super-short. While her weight is often fodder for the gossip mags, it doesn’t seem to bother Mary-Kate much. She is a success and would be no matter her size. But for such a petite woman, she’s got a heck of a lot going on in her larger-than-life world!
1 Jessica Alba
– 118 lbs.
The undeniably gorgeous and super-successful actress and businesswoman, Jessica Alba, always looks beyond great, so the weigh-in of a reported 118 lbs. seems on point. She’s always staying active and remains fabulously fit, and for a doting mom with two young girls, she probably keeps in shape by chasing after them! Jessica seems to embrace a healthy lifestyle and always looks tanned and toned when snapped at the beach or on vacation with her adorable family. She looks terrific in her fancy designer clothing while strutting her stuff on various red carpets, and when she is more subdued, she looks superb and casual-chic in a pair of fitted jeans and a worn-in T-shirt. Jessica is considered one of the more beautiful women in Hollywood, and her pretty face and well-taken-care-of body explain why.
