Michelle Trachtenberg Update
April 2nd, 2008 by Rian | Filed under Miscellaneous Celebrities.You all may remember these recent photos of Michelle Trachtenberg which suggested that she has gained some weight. Anyway, here are some new pictures of her from the “Gossip Girl” set.

I think she actually looks really good here… healthy and in good shape. (Especially compared to all the scary skinnies in the last few posts).

What do YOU all think?

I usually prefer slimmer legs, but I think she looks phenomenally healthy here. She actually looks refreshingly feminine.
Is she russian?
Big thighs.
She looks good!
oh shut up, no one will ever be perfect, she looks good and healthy.
YaY! I knew those pictures were photoshopped. She’s very lovely.
I think she looks really good here. I prefer her when she is slimmer, but she looks really pretty and grown up here.
Is she on or going to be on Gossip Girl?
The Queen of Sauage Limbs herself, Mischa Barton, has some stiff competition in this little hellion.
She played Buffy’s little sister in Buffy the vampire slayer. She looks really good here! Back then she used to be really slim…
She’s of Russian decent…she’s Jewish too! I think she looks awesome.
Her legs are kind of large, but she looks healthy.
she’s surely healthy…her legs are not the best legs but she’s nice and cute…
She’s so pretty. I think she is a really good weight
She’s so pretty!! The darker hair really suits her
Huge thighs???, Come on get real… She has womenly legs with a shape, I would take those legs over some puny chicken legs any day.
AnnieJ and all the people that say she is large, not all people can wear a size 2! Some people are just naturally curvy. No matter how much these people diet and go to the gym they will never have stick thin legs. I think she looks great!
she still looks cute.
Curvy, but hot.
She’s gorgeous.
curves look so cute on her!
that 3rd pic is slightly messed up, otherwise she has great legs
Her skin looks phenomenal! She looks great to me.
She doesn’t have big thighs at all…She looks great.
She’s a little hip’ier than she used to be and her face looks fuller. She looks to have an average body and nothing wrong with that.
I don’t know who she is, but she looks fine!
She looks fabulous and healthy. Good for her.
Wow she gained weight!!! She is so chubby! She’s still cute, but could stand to lose 15 lbs.
to the people who call her fat : just shut up… i think you really need help when you think like that.
in my opinion she is BEAUTIFUL! her body is great too. she needn´t gain or lose weight!
I’m with you, Rian. I think she has a better body than all the skinnies you just did posts on. She’s a very pretty girl!
Come on, shes HOT!
perfection. love the hourglass look. and lovely toned legs. hmm.
not big at all! shes fine!
QUESTIONNN: anyone know wtf shes doing/or being
on gossipgirl??
Finally, some one who can’t be mistaken for a prepubescent child.
Very pretty face!! And no horrid, fake spray tan orange-ness and no obvious cheap extentions.
Finally!!!!!!
she looks to have a slight double chin going on , but otherwise looks good. i’m obsessed with chins today.. i carry my weight in my face like her. it’s the worst
Love her curves and the fact that she’s not stick thin, but she really needs other pants. :S Those do not fit her figure.
contrary to some others i don´t think her legs are too “thick” or that her pants don´t look good on her. i think she has great legs, not skinny but slim!
i think she looks great!!!! a lot better then that other pic. cant wait to see her on GG..and i like the hair color too. her body looks good to me and seems to work fine for her. but i never realized that her face kind of reminds me of taylor momsen who plays jenny on GG.. thats kind of funny.
Still chubby and fat thighs.
She is going to play Blair’s old friend Georgina (or some name like that) to tempt Blair back to her old bad ways.
She does look really good weight wise and the darker hair makes her look more sophisticated. Plus it shows if you wear the right clothes to fit for your figure, it will make you look like u have curves.
I’m surprised they’re hiring a not-so-skinny actress for Gossip Girl. All the girls in the series look really thin.
Absolutely has gained - it’s really obvious in her thighs, midsection and face.
I think she looks really good here =)
rian, could you please do a post on poops?
she must be awfully flawless–something that we should all see–so we can have a model of perfection to compare everyone else against
She looks great…healthy and beautiful. But I’m willing to bet it all that, by the time Gossip Girl is done with her, she’ll be just as skinny as the rest of them.
The third photo makes her look a little overweight but she’s not; she’s the epitome of healthy weight.
she looks good, like every healthy young girl… if i saw/knew her in real life i would probably think she had a good body
She’s HOT! I would guess 5′6 and 115-120
She looks gorgeous, especially in that last picture.
she’s noway 5′6 and 115-120 because kate hudson is 115-120 and this girl is fatter than kate…I guess 125 at least
She definitely used to be skinnier, but I think she looks nice here - especially the last picture.
On another note, can’t wait for GG!
It looks like her face is a bit fuller than it was…she’s got the “chipmunk cheek” thing happening. I hope she’s not bulimic, but anything’s possible. She doesn’t look fat, but she also doesn’t look particularly toned or athletic at all.
I think she looks good. She wears her weight well and knows how to dress. However, I have been her size before, and kept thinking about how fat I was…I was super untoned and gained more fat and lost a lot of muscle.
I prefer to be that size and toned, and she doesn’t come off as a toned person.
shes fat
I wouldn’t want that kind of lower body. Looks borderline chub to me.
It’s stupid to compare her body now to her body during the “Buffy”-days. She was like 15 years old back then.
Cute outfit.
i will never be able to understand how people can think girls like this are chubby. i hope i never do, either.
she looks lovely.
I think she looks cute here! I definitely like her bigger for some reason . . .
beautiful face, but her body looks soft.
I think she looks great even though I’m glad I have thinner thighs.
Yummy!
I knew a lot of people on this site would consider her heavy, but this is actually the kind of body I love the most!
shes wearing spanx or something under those jeans…
Big thighs! Large legs! What do some of you see that I don’t. Even by Hollywoods standards she’s not big. My goodness. I have big thigs and large legs and my body is nothing like hers. So, I guess I’m in the category of an elephant. lol Some people are over critical. I think she looks great.
Michelle is sporting the new accessory that makes you look instantly thin…a humongous handbag!
look at the crease above her knee in both photos..it seems to me that she’s wearing some sort of thigh/butt minimizer under her jeans…seriously look carefully..it totally pudges out right above her knees.does it not?
Hey I was downtown and I saw this being taped on Museum Mile in Manhattan! She wasn’t out there yet though…it was quite early. If anyone is interested the next taping is going to be on the street behind St. Patricks Cathedral this coming Monday 4/7! Perhaps then you can observe whether the “camera adds ten pounds”?
Although not very skinny, she’s beautiful!!!
HOT!
her thighs are kind of big considering how small she is
She looks good and cute. Not thin but also not fat at all!
she looks very good the way she is, but she’d better watch out and not put on any more weight or she’ll start looking chubby.
it looks like she has lost a little weight.
she looks fabulous, but who doesn’t, in the set of gossip girl?
i love the glamorous sobriety of their wardrobes.
Mel i bet you are a fat bitch yourself
I’m usually one of the first ones to be critical of weight gain, but I honestly think Trachtenburg looks great here. She has a long body with a small frame and she is dressed to flatter her weight. Some people have been commenting on her hips/legs being thick, but I don’t see that. They are elongated with these dark, tapered trousers. She has a small waist which also accentuates her figure.
Whoever styles the GG wardrobe is an absolute genius.
emsmcb, do you have ex-ray vision?
dizer!, hahaha, i almost pee’d my pants there. haha. i’m sure she’s an absolute joy to be around too.
Ease up on Michelle. Her body’s just changing from skinny teen girl to adult woman. Slowing metabolism blah blah. A lot of us have been through it. Especially those of us who weren’t into sports and excercise. I’m sure she’ll figure it out and adjust her eating habits and pick up her activity level.
Girlfriend is definitly working with the hips, but she looks great! If she toned up a tad (no weight loss required) it would only add to her hotness. She’s a very beautiful girl.
How much time do you have, Diana-Rose?! I never would have noticed that! Good eye though.
i think she is gorgeous
I think it’s hilarious that the ad that shows up under the entry for me is offering double-chocolate-chip muffin tops!
so pretty!
She’s gorgeous and has the perfect body!
She is really cute but needs to cut back on (or shape up) her makeup!
I think she looks adorable =)
i LOVE the outfit, i want it!!!! =(
and..she’s such a cutie!!
I don’t see how her legs are huge.. =\
shes stunning and looks great
She’s not fat but could improve her looks by losing about 5-10 pounds.
My God…she is NOT fat!! I mean really…
She’s beautiful, great face, nice lips, she’s just made bigger. She’s not dainty,she looks really tall too.

Big legs? Compared to who, Nicky Hilton? Get a life. This girl is slim.
She has a lovely face, but really could use to trim and tone her body. Losing 10lbs would slim her down so that she would still have curves and not be too skinny.
wow thunder thighs, she seriously needs to lose 20 lbs
I think she looks really hot! Healthy and she’s just looking realy good!
if i were a guy i would totally want her, she looks amazing!!
i think she looks good. and seriously, guys wouldn’t want to hug a bag of bones.
To all of the people who said that this girl is “fat” or “chubby” or whatever, I’d like to you post pics of yourself on here for people to critique.
This girl is healthy, normal, and beautiful, and not fat or chubby in the slightest.
Women don not have to be 90 lbs. to be gorgeous.
and to ~~Jessica~~, if this girl lost 20lbs, you would probably be the first person to say she has an eating disorder, then diet for 2 months just to look like her.
She is sooooo beautiful. wow. However, if i had thighs like that I wouldn’t be able to live with myself - I admire her confidence!
also, how did she get into those jeans?
She’s cute but a little bit fat
funny how some people here think that for thighs to look good, they must ceast to exist.
I think she looks really nice. Good for her for not feeling pressure to be tiny.
That bag on the other hand, is HUGE. But I like it.
These pics are taken from a low angle which makes her bottom half look bigger than it would straight on or from a higher angle. She has gained a bit of weight, but I think looks better like this, you could see her ribs in Eurotrip! With a more flattering cut of jeans and a better angle she would look fabulous. I think she will be a great addition to Gossip Girl, she is so cool and beautiful
oh shut up, prob. half of you (at least!) are way fatter than her.
she looks ok. but she’s not fat.
cute and perfect weight!
Exactly. It definitly looks like she’s wearing something slimming underneath them jeans. There’s like a line and a bump above her knee. Seems unnecessary to me, but I guess she has her reasons.
She doesn’t look fat AT ALL!
She looks hot!
I wonder where those jeans are from?
