I admit that there may be a bit of a generation gap here, because I don’t know anything about Carnie Wilson except for her weight issues. Evidently she’s a musician and “television personality,” but so is Heidi Montag and that doesn’t seem to mean much.
In any event, in March she came out swinging over a National Enquirer exposé that she’d regained a ton of weight after having a gastic bypass done in 1999, back when she weighed 300 pounds.
After the surgery, she dropped to around 150 pounds, but the National Enquirer reported she’d fattened back up. She was insulted.
“If I’m 205 today, that means I am up 70 pounds,” she revealed in a candid interview about her weight battle on Good Morning America. 79 pounds, she said, “is an outright lie.
“It is very hard being in the public eye, being scrutinized for every pound,” she added.
Around the same time she said she weighed 208, so my math says they were off by 6 pounds. Splitting hairs, if not pants. But I digress.
What’s odd is that a mere two months later, she’s writing a tell-all book about her dieting struggles. It seems that as a weight-loss advocate, such a move will open her up to scrutiny of every pound, no?
Some people just want the flattering press and can’t accept the bad.
