fairly skinny
Fug!
She’s skinny; looks like a health nut, though. She’s probably healthy.
I like how the t-shirt drapes from her skinny shoulders.
She’s always really thin. I am unimpressed by her style, though. Of course not in these photos – she is playing outside with her kids – but in general. It’s a shame when someone who has such a great body is an unimaginative dresser.
I don’t know what it is about her but I really like her, I think she’s lovely for her age
She looks awfully thin…her clothes are barely hanging on!
She is so pretty, though. Her daughters (when we see them) are both so cute. I wonder if Marcia forces herself not to eat when DH is not shooting/filming ??? She has been honest and open about how hungry she gets at times…but feels she is paid such good money to look so thin…therefore she forces herself from eating even when she is hungry. S-A-D !!! Hope her daughters don’t inherit “weird” eating habits or disordered eating as they grow up !!
aw, she’s lovely, seems like a really nice woman in real life. Great body too!
I think she looks lovely, but i never like what she wears, you can wear comfortable clothes without looking dull or sloppy.
She is thin, but the loose fit stone wash jeans do nothing for her.
I don’t care that it’s a casual outfit, I pretty much hate all of the hideous shoes that she wears. Other then that, I hope I can be this thin in my mid-40s, especially if I ever have TWINS.
She’s skinny because she doesn’t eat. She’s even said so herself. She said she’s always hungry. She she she…
I think Marcia’s ugly.
i totally disagree marcia is extremly beautiful i lov those shoes there the type of shoes you were with wash jeans like the ones she has on i do agree though that she has become increcingly thin i think that she could do with gaining a couple pounds she’s seems relly nice in person and is a great acctree i salute you marcia
……………..
I think she looks good here. She’s playing outside with her kids, and compared to many moms I see, she actually looks dressed up. I also think moms generally dress more conservatively, since they want to set a good example for their children.
I don’t think its sad she has to eat little she is right she gets paid well to look good. Aside from that her body looks better on ‘less food’ and I am sure she feels better keeping her body slimmer.
i’m sure she has a thin but proportional frame..which looks good, nothing jaw-dropping, but she looks like a freaking hippie in that unflattering clothing…
OMG SHE’S OBESE – SHE’S PUT ON SO MUCH WEIGHT – FAT COW
only messing – sorry i couldnt resist! she’s as skinny as ever but it does not suit her – plus her face is so tight from all that surgery!!
VERY thin
The DH finale last night was AMAZING! My parents and I were literally on the edge of our sofa freaking out. I totally called Lynette’s pregnancy and I knew that Mike was gonna rescue Susan & MJ and get back together. I wish we knew who was standing at the alter with Mike at the end. I’m assuming it’s Susan? And I can’t believe the Scavos are going to have another pair of twins!! I think something will happen during the pregnancy though. I can’t wait for the new season to resume!
Of COURSE it’s sad that she doesn’t eat because she feels that is her job.
What is it about exercise and clean eating that people don’t understand? We aren’t all meant to be size 0 or 2, but we can make the choice to do our best to be disciplined and healthy.
Celebrities should not be the exception to the rule. It’s just plain sad…
I can take or leave Marcia but the little one is just adorable in her hat and sunglasses! And her little belly in her striped shirt… so cute…
P.S. I always love Mondays– new posts!
Hey Rhian – i just saw new pictures of hayden panettiere in a green bikini and she looks amazing – dying to know what others think! can you try and put them up please
It must be horrible being followed by paps when you’re with your kids. I like that she looks like she cares more about her family than dressing sexed-up. She’s dressed for the cottage, or playing with kids.
@Dr. Truth…I had also agreed with you in my previous/prior to your post that’s very sad that Marcia doesn’t eat because she believes that is “part and parcel” of her “job” to stay so thin. She really exercises a LOT, too…lots of pilates and other gym work-outs & even when her stomach is so empty and longing for nourishment. It’s just nuts that these celebs do this to their bodies. It is bad ENOUGH that professional models consider it a pre-requisite NOT to eat BUT I think that these Hollywood celebs are trying to “out-shine” (become skinnier than even the ridiculously emaciated-looking runway models.)
I am concerned about her twin daughters….they are so much MORE LIKELY to “pick up” on their mother’s WEIRD “non-eating” (disordered eating) rituals ….it will be so sad if they become victims to an eating disorder or even just extreme disordered eating. It will be somewhat like what has happened with Allegra Versace….her mother is so thin and in addition to that Allegra is exposed to all those horribly thin fashion models; and the modeling business in general.
the finale was good, not as good as last years one. last year, when we find out that the doll killed cathernines baby, well… that gave me goosebumps for minutes! this years, was a bit tooo predictable…. that being said, am i the only one who saw this show last nite?? hahaha
rian: could you not ask/talk about what has happened in the latest episodes? i live in england so i’m always a few episodes behind than in the US, so i’d prefer it if there weren’t any spoilers (seeing as i’ve accidentally just read one).
Getting a bit too thin.
Sama, i live in england too… but why dont u just watch the episode online? I did today!! yay

she is pretty and casual. i like it
i never like how she dresses, but i think she is pretty, and has an adorble daughter.. and i love that all the pictures we see she’s with her kid. seems like she has her priorities straight, and knows what’s important
Kianna, I always get a chuckle out of your posts. I bet you’re a nice person.
she looks fine, but I don’t like her jeans.
I agree with what someone said about her beeing a health nut.

I’m sure Marcia Cross doesn’t eat doughnuts and cookies just whenever, but, for some people (such as myself), we would rather eat healthy/exercise (perhaps, even a little obsessively) to maintain our desired figures. Ms. Cross, while she looks like she eats/exercises carefully, does not look like she has an eating disorder to me. Some people seem to think that if you refuse the normal American fare of fried chicken, french fries, and icecream that you have some sort of problem.
I don’t usually like her but I like the way she appears here, out and about with very casual and comfortable attire. Seems happy and healthy.
wow I did not even recognize her here. it’s amazing what makeup and styling can do.
such excersize
She is very thin for a woman her age. She looks very fragile.
@ Kianna- very true. Her children are not only predisposed to an ED but will grow up most likely watching their mother starve herself. A mother who thinks her kids don’t/won’t notice her strange eating behaviors is clueless. I hope that when she DOES choose to eat, she does so in front of her little ones…
I loved the season finale! IT was great. They always do such a good job with the finales! I want to know who Mike married. I would say Susan but they are always doing what you least expect on that show, so who knows! Glad Dave is finally caught, it was getting old!
Marcia is pretty but she is a little too thin.
That child is adorable!
Completely unshapely. How people think this level of skinny is attractive is beyond me. I’d rather be slighty over than under. Oh, wait, I already am!
she’s one of the few people who can pull of pegged jeans.
i only like her jeans and skinny body but everything else is ugly.
i am sure she is not naturally skinny that’s why she said she has to starve.
i love her
i always find her very beautiful.
and i love her character on desperate housewives (:
LOVE the jeans!
@Kianna and Dr. Truth: This is EXACTLY why I am now, after 15 years, seeking help for my ED. I have a daughter now and NO WAY is she going to inherit weird eating habits from me!
She is pretty-even when she is dressed down
and her girl is so adorable…
I am always hungry too – that’s the price you pay if you want to be thin in your 40
i get the whole “healthy white skin” thing, especially being a red head etc, but this is just taking it too far. I’m a little scared of her.. she needs some sunlight. She’s abnormally white, like a dead person
She looks like such a cute mom, no where close to her real age.
That hat and limited sun exposure sure help. But also her cute young bod… great at 30, let alone 45.
I wish she would wear something more fitted. But it’s a day out with her babies so she can wear whatever she wants.
Not a fan of that show but I think Marcia is gorgeous…Love the fair skin and red hair..ethereal
i really like her,and i really like bree too ^^
i used to think she was the most stunning woman i had ever seen! but she has lost too much weight and the life has gone out of her skin and eyes and her face looks so drawn. did she really have surgery? what i shame! i think just adding another 5-10 lbs from eating healthy food would give that beautiful light back intoi her face. she has such amazing bone structure and beautiful colouring! just fill that bod and face up a bit! then she wouldnt need surgery! i reckon she would age stunningly!
i do think that marcia is beautiful and dont think that she has an eating disorder but i guess it is sad that she dousnt eat much but at least she is being honest about it and admitting that they pay her well to look good ….
any ways watched the finally last night it was amazing cant believe that hole sich with carl and bree kising seems like a promising storey line for the next series…any spoilers please send them or post them up tnx
