Joss Stone Thinks She is Big
Celebrities are just as insecure as the rest of us…
Joss Stone did an interview for You Magazine. Of course the conversation turned to weight and diet, as it usually does. Joss revealed how she thinks she is “big”. This came up after the interviewer complimented Joss on her recent weight loss:
“I am tall, that is why you think I’m slim,” she says. “I am a 10 to 12, I think. I’m big. I’m not little, me, but it doesn’t matter,” she says.
“People tell me all the time to go the gym.” Blimey, I say. First of all, size 10 to 12 is not big, and second of all, who tells you to go to the gym? “Friends, boyfriends, everybody.
“It’s probably true, but what can I do? I know I’m not skinny, but it doesn’t matter. They say [and I assume she means her record company bosses] to get to another level you’ve got to look good, and I am like, ‘I try.’ I can only be me.
“Every girl wants to be pretty. I would love to look good. But there is no time to go to the gym, and when I do get time, I’d rather have a sleep.”
Well, Joss certainly doesn’t look “big”, but I love her attitude and confidence towards her weight. However, she has lost some weight in the past several months, so who really knows?

Yes, according to that hair and the fishnets, she doesn’t concern herself with being attractive…

is she wants to look better she should change her hair and clothing. She certainly doesn’t need to lose any weight.

Aren’t British sizes different from American ones or am I mistaken? I want to say that their 10-12 is more like an 6-8 or 8-10 in America. She does not look big enough to be anywhere near a 10-12.

Well… the problem with Joss is not the size but the style…

The biggest part of her is that hair…

the friends and boyfriends who tell her she is fat needs to be dropped quick
she is a thin girl, perfectly proportioned body for her hieght being much thinner will be sick and unhealthy for her
but being in the media means she will be constanly looking at any flaws she has which is sad, lets hope not another nicole occurs and she changes this bad fashion stage she is going through

By Maggie on Mar 7, 2007 | Reply
Yeah, British sizes are 4 sizes bigger than US sizes… So her 10-12 is most likely a 6-8 American sizes
By ZimboZamboZZZ on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply

She is so cute. Not “big” at all.
By brad nowell on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
Yes, she is right. She’s a total fat ass. She’s tall, gangly and a little too big for most guys. That’s why she can’t get a date. I’d never be seen with her. Friggin fat ass. I can’t believe she even shows herself in public. I’d be embarrased. Oh, and she’s butt ugly. Why do these ass-ugly celebs think they are so damn hot. I’m 2wice as hot as any of em. Name anyone and I’m probably hotter, much hotter.

Let me put it to you a totally different way. I don’t want to disgust anyone on this site but I’d rather date Frenchie, that nasty overweight beast who got kicked off American Idol a couple years back. I know you’re probably throwing up right now, but yes, it’s true. Gimmie Frenchie any day over this biznatch.

I’ve read all of your posts on this site. Please start telling it like it is. Come on people. If someone is fat, just tell them. It’s unhealthy and not ok to stuff your face in cake every chance you get. And it’s certainly not ok to be fat. You’ll die sooner and people will laugh at you becuase you are fat. I don’t want a life like that. That’s why I got skinny.

Brad I really hope you’re being sarcastic or else you are a complete prick.
Anyway, she is obviously not big at all. If I had a boyfriend that told me I needed to go to the gym, I’d dump him immediately. This article made sad.

By Helen on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
yes a 10-12 is a 6- 8 actually.
By hou on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
And I just saw her new video and thought, ‘wow, she’s so skinny and gorgeous!’ (well, bar the hair…) I think she’s pretty, sexy in a girly way and I loved her blonde locks. Get them back girl.
By steph on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
she looks like a six-8
not bad looking
shes healthy looking.
average.
gross clothes though and I never cared for her at all.
By Hannahbobs on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
Her weight looks fine, She should be more concerned with sorting out her ‘diva’ attituide and faux accent.X

OMG that’s so sad. Are that really friends?
This is a bad pic, I agree. but she’s such a beauty! I hope she knows that and doesn’t try to compete for other peeps views/standards. Why do we always compare..? We’re all unique and she is beautiful

She’s 5″9/178 cm, so she i “big”. She looks healthy.
By lambman on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
I’m sorry but how could anybody, record lable or not, think that weight loss would make her more attractive when they let her go out of the house dressed like that, and with that hair.
And to be honest, that’s actually one of the most appealing outfits she’s worn in a while
By Immy on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
In my opinion, she is not big. She is badly dressed however.
By Skye on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
So she’s a size 6? She looks good. Well, not her hair. I hate hearing about how a size 6 is soooo big. A size 6 is perfect, and my goal!
By reality check on Mar 8, 2007 | Reply
Wow, according to the general attitude of the posters here, apparently one must be blonde and dress like everyone else to be attractive.
I think her hair looks great. True, it looks better down than up, but I love the crazy red curls.
And fishnets are always a plus.
By Miss M on Mar 9, 2007 | Reply
She looks fine the way she is. She lost quite a few pounds in the recent weeks and I hope she doesn’t lose any more. She should sack her hair dresser though. What was she thinking? Her head looks too big for her body and perms are just so out!
By newgrrl99 on Mar 9, 2007 | Reply
I really like her but agree with the other people who said she needs more of a style change than weight loss. Girl needs better hair and clothing. I can see how she’s trying to do that 60’s bohemian thing, but there’s a way to do it and be stylish. she needs to hire a stylist!

i think she looks good…weight wise at least
By Slurm on Mar 10, 2007 | Reply
UK size 10-12 = American size 6-8.
OK?
Subtract 4 from the UK size and it is the American size.
I don’t know why it’s that hard to figure out.

By Julia on Mar 14, 2007 | Reply
Isn’t she English? Their size 10 is about an American 6. I wear a 2 in US sizes, but a 6-8 UK.
