A Jordin Sparks Post
April 14th, 2008 by Rian | Filed under Curvy Celebrities, Jordin Sparks.Here is some proof that you don’t need to be stick-thin in Hollywood in order to look gorgeous and healthy… Jordin Sparks was spotted at the Vision East Expo for Revolution Eye wear event on Saturday.
This girl has been all over the place lately…
Is it my imagination, or does she look a bit slimmer these days?

She looks nice. Normal weight, imo.
yay jordin!!!!!! go plus sized model!!!!but you dont really have a neck in these pics..i like you though(minus thosue red streaks)
‘Eyewear for a changing world’?! STFU.
I don’t know this girl, but she looks pretty.
wow shes managed to look like a slob on top of being fat and ugly
She is gorgeous.
here we are giving her thumbs up about her looks when she looks totally uncomfortable with it….sad
I refuse to believe that this is a ‘normal’ weight.
She looks about as comfortable as a Thanksgiving turkey.
She looks great, I love Jordin.
I don’t think she lost weight, but jeans and a t-shirt make anyone look slimmer.
I actually like the red streaks in her hair.
yeah she does seem kind of uncomfortable which is too bad because she looks great
She looks good, I don’t think she’s lost weight either and I do think she looks uncomfortable with her weight, but she shouldn’t…she looks good
chubby, but cute.
If I’m not mistaken before she was on American Idol she was a plus size model. I think she is a very pretty girl.
she looks pretty and happy…good for her.
I don’t know…not really flattering photos…she looks a bit more curvy than in the past…
i do not find her attractive
She’s absolutely beautiful, no question about it.
But there’s no denying that she looks uncomfortable. Losing 15 lbs (the right way!) would still make her a thicker, but healthier & more comfortable girl…
Pretty girl, but she does look uncomfortable. b.SophiaLoren is right on!
She definitely has a pretty face. Body could use some exercise and diet. She doesn’t look confident at all here. In this pictures, she looks like a typical chubby girl fighting to accept themselves and preaching they do, but really wishing they were thinner.
she’s got a pretty face, but she’ fat.
She looks gorgeous.
She has a nice face and I love her hair. But I think she is too chubby…
POOPS!
ONECE AGAIN YOU ARE SO RUDE AND CRITICAL OF ANOTHER PERSON. MY G-D, THIS IS WHY THE WORLD IS SO CRAZY AND YOUNG GIRLS ARE DYIN TO STARVE THEMSELVES. JORDIN IS AT A HAELTHY WEIGHT, AND LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. PEOPLE NEED TO GET A GRIP ON WHAT LOOKS GOOD OR NOT. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT SOME OF YOU(POOPS) LOOK LIKE!
i think she looks great. she just looks a little uncomfortable.
Slimmer, no. Neckless, maybe.
kiki - i couldn’t agree more.
people may look like whatever they want to. but please don’t promote chubby as healthy? why? it’s not true! to be chubby is not to have settled at healthy weight. it is to be slighty over-weight! over-weight’s never _good_, people.
well, pretty face, nice girl. BUT her clothes is ugly beyond control, why would anyone wear this ever? especially while being photographed… the sunglasses are ugly as hell too, and the hair? ugh
it just doesn’t make sense to me
Oh come on tomi the thanksgiving turkey comment just cracked me up. You have to admit it was funny.
Who is this girl?
I agree she looks really uncomfortable.
She’s very pretty, but on the heavy side. If she lost some weight (not a lot), she would look prettier, and be healthier. JMHO.
She looks GREAT!!!!!! I’m amazed to see someone at NORMAL weight in Hollywood! yay!
Pretty girl, great smile, good voice.
But this is NOT a healthy weight, and she doesn’t look anywhere near comfortable. If she lost 15-20 pounds or so, that’d do her wonders.
if that’s normal weight, then i’m a fucking stick.
@Helene
since when is chubby unhealty? it isn`t, actually moderate overweight is MORE healty than being (too) thin. sorry.
this girl is chubby and cute, she doesn`t need do lose weight in order to get healthier. The only reason I see to lose weight, is to look better in clothing.
I always enjoyed her singing on the A I show. I like her face. Unfortunately, she has too much weight for someone so young. Many people gain weight when they reach the 20’s and 30’s. You are still in your teens. Get a trainer and watch your diet.
Yep, sadly, this is normal or average weight in the U.S. Most women weigh 20-40 pounds above their “ideal’ weight. So Jordin is a normal, average, overweight American. She also has average looks and an average sloppy, unflattering wardrobe to go with it. For f*cks sake, it’s a red carpet event and she’s
Standing. On. Her. Pants.
And on the sides of her feet, no less. My mom has photos of me, when I was three years old, standing like that. I was cute. She’s not.
Beefy. Well proportioned, but beefy.
actually, this is how it goes. a skinny person can be more unhealthy than an overweight person. were looking for body fat and muscle mass. so, for all we know she could be healthier (and probably is) than someone like kate bosworth, skinny people who dont exercise and just as unhealthy as overweight people who dont exercise. they all get fat around their hearts and clogged arteries.
and whomever was getting mad about being critical about jordan, this website is all about being critical. we judge every single person on this website, whether theyre fat or skinny, so chill. thats what this is all about. some people like “curvy” (and please thats a misnomer- jennifer lopez is curvy, jordan sparks is not) and some like skinny. i mean thats just how it is.
oh and i think she is wearing william rast savoys which means she is at least a US 32 or below.
Right on, Suzy! She looks sloppy.
nah…as fat as always
It’s your imagination. She looks cute though.
she looks great
Who is this chick? I recognise her but I dont know where from
She looks good cute smile
I’m not sure if this body is the result of healthy living, but she’s not even 20 yet so I’ll cut her a little slack. Hope she figures out that she won’t always be a teen able to eat whatever she wants and not excercise.
Relax tomi, that’s all part of poops’ charm. But if her comments have you in such a tizzy, you’re probably better off not reading our comments.
She is not at a normal weight. She looks very unhealthy! She needs to lose 20 lbs! I don’t know how anyone can be this big and be okay with it. Absolutely gross! We should not be encouraging obesity!
I agree with the others who have said it’s not her weight necessarily that looks bad…it’s the attitude behind it. She looks uncomfortable in her own skin. Not to mention how sloppy the clothes look *covering* that skin.
I agree with what some people have already said… she doesn’t look comfortable. She says she is but her body language says otherwise. I don’t think she’s fat but she could stand to lose some weight. Even if she lost 10 lbs, she’d look so much more fit and healthy.
I actually don’t think this girl is chubby or overweight. I think she’s probably about a size 8 now (US) and I think she has lost weight since the American Idol days… but she isn’t overweight now. She looks normal. Of course it’s all the starved laides in the media that make us see ourselves as fat too, that’s why I’m a size 2 and feel obese and disgusting, because I watched Miss USA on Friday and afterwards felt like a hog, lol.
I think we are so used to seeing starved celebrities that our opinions on someone normal is totally out of wack. I think she looks uncomfortable because she is not dressed appropriately, I can’t really remember ever seeing her this dressed down before??
Ugh… poops is not charming. Nor does she even make sense. How can a turkey look uncomfortable? It can look stuffed (or delicious) but I don’t think a turkey can adopt postures of comfort or discomfort.
For f*cks sake, suzy, why should a 18 year old girl need to dress up for a casual photo op? (By the way, throwing down a red carpet does not make a ’swag tent’ into a red carpet event.)
You just help along my theory that anyone named ‘Suzy’ is evil.
far from glamorous i guess… not saying its good/bad…
Angela, there’s no way this girl is a US8. She’s closer to a US14. If she’s an 8, then my clothes have been seriously lying to me.
Gandalf is correct. Jordin is at normal weight for Americans because two thirds of Americans are over weight.
Jordin is a young woman, why is she obese? Metabolism don’t reve up as we age.
Let’s see the post about how cute she is five years from now when her knees are rubbing together instead of her thighs!
POLITE TIA
WOW SO CRUEL. OBESE? ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND. YOU PROBABLY LIKE GIRLS TO WEIGH 85 POUNDS. GET REAL, WAKE UP AND KNOW THAT YOU SRE SO OUT OF IT. JORDIN LOOKS GREAT AND MORE LIKE THE REST OF THE REAL WORLD, GET A GRIP
she looks EXTREMELY uncomfortable!! she’s definitely going to try to loose weight..
girl is gorgeous! i hope she knows it too and isn’t self-conscious amidst unnatural waifs in hollywood (nothing against those who are naturally thin and who are healthy though, of course)… size does NOT define beauty!
Frightful creature!!!!!
She looks healthy and happy. This is what more women in Hollywood should look like rather than be toothpicks.
she definitely looks like she’s trying to suck everything in. the weird stance only adds to the theory that she’s uncomfortable with her weight and is trying to make herself appear thinner.
I love Jordin SPARKSSS woop go her, i hope she doesn’t go on one of those crazy-ass diets. She is perfect the way she is!
I have no idea who she is, but why, oh why, is she doing that weird thing with her shoulders? We can see you have flab, no need to hide it!
She’s a little overweight (10 lbs maybe?) but she’s very pretty and being only a little overweight is not necessarily unhealthy depending on your lifestyle. She may just be a naturally bigger girl. Besides being underweight is unhealthy too!!
She’s a beautiful plus size model! However I am not an advocate of how big she is and it’s time to get healthier.
She looks sweet, young and uncomfortable.
From a BMI point of view, she looks overweight, but only just. Perhaps 25.5 or 26.0 or so. Which is nothing to strictly be worried about, medically speaking. She just needs to ‘watch it’ so to speak, and make sure it doesn’t creep up over the years to *become* a problem.
Some people are meant to be chubby.
She looks good. I agree that she does look uncomfortable. She could loose some weight but if she didn’t she would be fine. As long as she is confident about the way she looks.
YOur imagination. She looks the same.
@fifi
i’m not saying that being too thin is better than being chubby! not at all. it doesn’t do anyone any good.
but why do we praise over-weight? why don’t we aim for the perfect weight, our height and body type considered, instead of being ok with …well, chubby! because it’s not like “oh, she’s not stick thin, such a healthy body image, bla bla bla”. IT’S NOT.
but hey, i don’t want anyone to think i admire stick thin celebrities. but this girl doesn’t look comfortable to me. she doesn’t look any good body wise, she is very…boring
(maybe this is a normal weight in the US, but in Denmark i think she’d be considered seriously over-weight for a girl her age. wow, bonus info)
I’m a US 12 and she’s just about the same size as me!!!!!!! And it SICKENS me to see people saying she’s heavy! That is a bunch of bull! She has NO rolls on her body! She looks great!
She does NOT ened to lose ANY weight,. NONE.
SERIOUSLY. STOP SAYING “THESE DAYS.” IT IS EXTREMELY ANNOYING. Get some creativity, try a journalism class or something. please.
also she looks good, the same.
to Helene:
I’ve been to Denmark, and ughm, no - there were overweight people there too. Sorry.
Also, take note that America is a VERY culturally diverse place while Denmark is predominantly Danish. I loved Denmark so this isn’t an insult - but that point is, why do you expect someone who is of African decent to have a similar body to the Danes who historically have been long and tall? I bet she looks particularly too tan as well?
Believe it or not guys, many people ARE built this way and to be thinner than this size is very unhealthy for them and takes a great deal of work. The obesity crisis people will rush to tell you that this is new, but people have been all sizes since time began and there is proof of that in many cultures from old Greek art to Polynesian standards of beauty.
she is nothing special…she is fat…not too much….,but to say this looks good???please….
why do people keep saying she’s pretty? i just don’t see it and if this is what she looks like slimmed down i’d hate to see what she looked like before she could definetly stand to lose a few
how is she gonna to breath with no air?
She just needs better posture!
She doesn’t look morbidly obese or anything but she does look frumpy. Give her a better outfit and pin her shoulders back and she’d look 100 times better.
Yes … she is chubby, but I think she’s absolutley adorable and a wonderful role model.
I want those lips and teeth!lol
But on a side note, someone here mentioned that she is about a size 8, which I higgghhhly doubt unless she’s really very short.
She’s a pretty girl, but I think she’s a tad on the chubby side. She’s got a lot of muscle under there though…she’s got a nice curvaceous body. She carries her weight in her arms, which is why she shouldn’t wear those short-sleeved shirts like that. At least her stylist is better than Kelly Clarkson’s.
I’d take her any day of the week over ex Australian Idol winner in 2004, Casey Donovan, now she was a heart attack waiting to happen.
The glasses look ridiculious.
She looks wonderful.
Nice to see a normal sized girl on this site.
it’s just baby fat, she’ll slim down someday, she’s cute
she is too fat and she doesnt feel comfortable with herself so why she doesnt lose the weight?
OK, OK… I take it back. She does look like a 14, I just took a way better second look.
I wouldn’t consider her overweight tho, Marilyn Monroe was a size 14. Yes, I know that’s a cliche thing to quote all the time so I’m sorry for being annoying.
But I still wouldn’t ever go far enough to say OBESE. I’ve seen obese, and this girl ain’t it.
I remember when she won American Idol that there were a group of people saying she was a bad influence on teens today because she was overweight, and I think that’s a bit harsh. I can’t imagine being 16 or 17 years old and having everyone talking about my weight on the news. True tho, that anyone who signs up for American Idol should be prepared to be ripped apart. I guess its just that since then I always felt sort of bad for her.
I think she’s a cute girl and she has a beautiful voice and hopefully she doesn’t gain weight as she gets older, if it’s in her genes, that’d be a real shame.
I’m just glad like some celebrities she covers up the flab she does have instead of staging shots with the paps to show off her cellulite… ahem… mischa, britney.
lame outfit, but she is a beautiful girl. Her dad was a football player, she’ll never be small. But she looks healthy
She is no way a size 8, to whoever said that!
Not saying she looks bad. She looks okay.
gorgeous and healthy? YEAH RIGHT! i’d feel extremely uncomfortable if i looked like that, look at those sneakers, look at that posture
she’s more like size 14
Frankie, I think she is 5′10 or 5′11, pretty tall. Not short at all, but you can’t really tell her weight in these pictures.
How does any one know she’s uncomfortable with her weight? Did she tell you? If she was, i would imagine she would have lost weight.
I think she’s beautiful. Maybe the cap sleeves were an unfortunate choice, though.
Aw she looks cute. I would never want to be at this weight because it looks heavy to me, but it looks healthy on her. The extra fat makes her look like she’s 16 though…
Okay…what on earth makes you think being chubby isn’t healthy? She’s probably healthier than Victoria whatsherface because she gets the vitamins she needs and actually eats enough to have energy.
And what about people with diabetes? If they starve themselves and eat an apple a day and that’s it, they die. So does that mean that for them it’s not okay to be chubby?
People like you make me sick. I’d love to see the day when you actually get an ASS instead of two folds of skin joined together.
P.S I agree she does look unhappy, but she’s still gorgeous.
LOVE her voice. talented lady. she’s obviously not thin, nor obese, but i think she could stand to lose 15-20lbs and she’d look even better:)
@ helene
“but why do we praise over-weight? why don’t we aim for the perfect weight, our height and body type considered, instead of being ok with …well, chubby!”
well, who would`t want to look a bit more aryan today
The comments about being ‘chubby’ not being healthy shows just how far some of you are brainwashed by the media.
So tell me this- if its ok to be slightly underweight (which A LOT of celebrities are) then why is it not ok to be slightly over? people have different, healthy body types. Its quite possible to be extremely healthy and look like jordin - For goodness sake, some women are just built thicker! Why should they have to starve to attain to an aesthetic, when trying to do so would make them more unhealthy, mentally and physically?
The only reason she might be uncomfortable is that so many people are brainless, idiotic critics who believe someone who carries a little more weight is worth next to nothing.
She does not look healthy at all.
Guarantee she’ll slim down by 1/3 if not to half her size if she stays in this industry for any longer than a year…
Willing to wager on that!
congrats poops you just got yourself a stalker. the sky is the limit!
Oooo does she sing that tattoo song?
I don’t think she’s at a healthy weight but she looks totally cute!
Tucker I can’t guess her weight or size either..but if she is that tall then maybe around 150?
her body looks like heart disease and diabetes.
I find it very amusing that people say she doesn’t look “healthy”. Just what constitutes healthy for these people? Ribs jutting violently from her chest? Skeletal legs struggling to prop up her anorexic frame? What the *BLEEP* is wrong with you people? This is what a woman is SUPPOSED to look like. Are you so deeply indoctrinated by Cosmo that you’ve lost track of normal?
Sick!
Peace,
Kelly
this is normal weight in america..
‘Her dad was a football player, she’ll never be small.’
Lol, very funny.
apricotmuffins and Kelly
I totally agree.
The hypocricy in here is astounding. The ideal look to most people here is underweight which is just as unhealthy as overweight. People need to stop pretending it’s about health. That is just an excuse to make their ED/media brainwashed opinions look normal instead of crazy like it really is.
she is a plus sized model as well…or at least thats what she stated on idol so she must be comfortable with her weight i dont know why she looks liek it there…i like jordin…i dont like that” curvy look” personally either but if she is happy i am happy for her
As a tall person, I’m going to guess she is in the 155-165 range, maybe more. That probably sounds hight to most of you, but for someone 5′10″ and up 140-145 would put them in a 4-6, and she looks like a 12-14 easy.
She’s overweight, but has a pretty face. Maybe it is harder for her to stay in shape because she is so tall. A shorter girl with the same proportions might not look so “chubby”. At the same time, give her a break–she’s young and new to Hollywood!
I think her arms are almost as big as my legs. She is pretty but fat.
im happy for her but i wouldnt personally like to be that big i’d feel out of place but shes a good role model
It just boggles my mind that people could actually look at her and think she is at an unhealthy weight. I think she is a healthy and confident romodel to all women, especially young ones. She is a beautiful person with an amazing talent.
no wonder there are millions of girls sticking their fingers down their throats in america. with comments like these that trend will definitely continue.
we were not made by God to all look alike. how boring would that be to see every female, 5 ft 3 inces, 100 pound !!!
there is ABSOLUTELY nothing remotely fat about this young lady. what i do see is a person, caught in a picture at an uncomfortable moment. how can ANYBODY assume she is uncomfortable because of her weight. like a previous poster acknowleged, jordin used to / continues to work as a plus size model. find me an plus size model who’s uncomfortable with her size & u will find an unemployed model. we don’t know the time or circumstances surrounding the taking of this picture to make any judgment calls on how she is feeling.
and if she is the size i think she is, probably a size 10, then she is under the “average” size woman, that is now a considered a size 14.
persephone…if your legs are the size of her arms then u are the one w/ the problem. seek help immediately!!
we have to see if she has fat on her tummy and/or stomach to decide whether she is unhealthy or not..fats in other areas are not threatening at all..
She´s fat.
you have to wonder… if she says she was a plus sized model once upon a time… you would think she would know how to pose for an event. meaning not shoving your hands in your pockets and rocking on the sides of your feet in your too oft-stepped on jeans. hmm…
not a fan.
fat fat fat
That isn’t a healthy weight, she looks fat and if i was her id be on a diet.
unhealthy role model, weird red hair tips… not NORMAL
All you starving people are a riot on here.
The average weight isn’t 90lbs. She is still young and has some babyfat to lose, but she doesn’t look bad at all.
The people ranting about this girl’s size do realize that she’s 6 ft. tall and has a size 11 shoe, right? Her father was a professional football player and she clearly carries his genes. When I look at her, I don’t see “rolls”…just a big girl.
Her posture is most likely the result of years of towering over her peers. She’s trying to make herself appear smaller…like most extremely tall young girls.
Could she force her body to be thinner? Absolutely. Should she, though?
I really like her and her image is fine. She is very tall so she would always weigh more anyway. LOL at whoever said she is only a size 8! I guess that would make me a 0 then come on! She is a big girl but thats fine, she is very pretty…I think she could have dressed up a bit more and jeans make her seem larger. It actually did look like she had lost well before I saw these pics…nonetheless very beautifal and talented for sure
its your imagination.
shes still fat
Uh, I can’t believe people are saying that she needs to lose weight, or that she’s fat.
Jordin is a very pretty girl, and I actually think that her body is good. It’s just that her thighs are a bit plump, the rest of her is nice.
Look at her, she is NOT fat at all. Just because you can’t see her f*cking bones sticking out doesn’t mean she’s fat. God, society makes me sick these days. I’d love to see everyone on here who calls her fat, most of them are probably overweight themselves.
Jordin is fine, so shut the hell up.
OH NOES! A beautiful curvy normal looking healthy woman who dares to be in the spotlight!
that is her normal body type,but now that she is in the music industry,they are going to make her loose weight ,just wait and see thats what they do.
Look at her posture and the way she’s pulling her shirt down. Even she thinks she’s too big. She’s a beautiful girl and I think she would be a banger if she were a size 6. Not too skinny, but just slim. She doesn’t look unhealthy and fat like Raven-Symone, but she could lose about 35 vanity pounds.
just like being too skinny, being over-weight isn’t healthy or normal. there’s a difference between having curves and being over-weight…that’s called having health risks.
She isn’t fat! She has no extra chins, stomach rolls, or spillage over her jeans! She looks more like an athletic type rather than the thin, narrow shouldered kind that is relevent in so many girls of a Swedish or Northern African descent.

I hate the red streaks in her hair and she should try and stand up straight and not look so shy
a size 14 now and a size 14 in monroe’s time is A HUGE difference! dumbass compare pictures of manroes body to this girls IT’S NOTHING ALIKE!
Since when is being chubby healthy? I like Jordan, but she is a big girl- probably a size 10/12. Wearing a size zero at 5′10″ would obviously not be good, but she should try to healthfully diet her way to a 6. It’s like America Ferrara- that chicks a little chunk but she always gets the “finally, a healthy sized celeb” comments, but in truth- homegirl needs to cut back on the bacon wrapped corndogs. Too skinny is not always the problem. Let’s try for a middleground, people. Hayden Panettiere, Blake Lively, Katherine Heigl- those are the girls who’ve got it down.
On second look, she’s probably more a 12/14 than a 10/12. Anywho, to the retard who said Jordan’s fine at a 14 because Marilyn Monroe was a 14- a size 14 in the 50s is equivalent to a 4 or 6 today! Marilyn’s measurements were 37-22-35; does that sound like a plus size woman or Playmate of the Year? I’m so sick of all the lards on the web using Marilyn’s knockout figure as an excuse to finish their box of Krispy Kremes.
