Super-skinny Alessandra Ambrosio and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley – who recently made an appearance at the Soho VS store – went on record for an interview with StyleCaster.com. At least one of the questions asked pertained to food and diet. When asked what they eat and how often they exercise, the answers were quite evasive but interesting… Alessandra claimed to eat around five times per day, and Rosie said she likes to eat all day long! (Of course, eating several times a day could just mean they snack on celery and carrots all day!)

SC: Ok, be honest. How much do you really eat, and how often do you actually work out?

AA: I eat like five times a day. I try to be healthy, but I can’t help myself when there is chocolate around! It’s my weakness. I travel a lot so it’s hard to keep a consistent workout routine, but when I have time I love doing yoga.

RHW: I eat constantly– I love to eat and I workout when I have free time.

SC: Have you ever been told by industry people that you weren’t pretty or skinny enough for the job?

AA: There’s always rejection in the industry, but when you really want something you can’t give up.

RHW: There’s always criticism in this industry, but I’m lucky to work with clients like Victoria’s Secret who celebrate my body.

SC: If you could eat anything you wanted for one day, what would be on the menu?

AA: My grandmother’s perogies.

RHW: My mom’s roast dinners– British roast dinner.

Make sure to check out the entire video and interview – it’s pretty interesting stuff. The models even talk briefly about how Victoria’s Secret embraces the ‘curvier’ models. (Which makes one wonder: then why are so many of their current models so stick-thin?)

What do you all think of the video and interview?

High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens shared a few tiny tidbits about her diet and exercise routine in the May 2009 issue of Self Magazine:

On diet: “I eat whatever, just in tiny portions. Honestly, when I tried to diet and eat fewer carbs and eat more protein, I ended up gaining a few pounds. [...] My worst OD’ing weakness is hot Cheetos. One day, when I was sick in bed watching Lost, I ate a whole bag.”

On abs: “My secret to flat abs is pilates.”

On working out: “I like sitting in the front row of cycling class. I feel like everybody behind me is looking forward, and that pushes me to do my best. [...] I like to work out with friends. It gives you someone to look at and say, ‘I’m dying!’ to.”

It sounds like she has a reasonably healthy attitude towards food and exercise, IMHO… what do YOU all think?
