Oh, for the love of….
Ok, seriously, this is getting ridiculous. Floating about is a scan of the new National Enquirer cover, which has gone the way of all the suxxors and decided to bag on Rachael Ray’s weight.
Now, I hated on that outfit the night of the Daytime Emmy awards because it does absolutely NOTHING for her figure - it was a horrible choice, and her hair wasn’t it’s best, and she was shiny and well. It was generally not a good night for our EVOO Diva.
And, for the record - if she’d gained weight like they suggest? Why didn’t they Photoshop her in some cleavage? She’d have some with extra poundage. I’m just sayin’. And yes, it’s clear that the picture WAS manipulated if you know where to look. And poorly done, too. (Check the facial features, the lift of the brows, the height of the hair - it’s the exact same picture, just badly Photoshopped) At the very core, it is quite simply a dress that’s awful for her figure on a bad day. No more, no less.
Now perhaps you’re wondering (and who isn’t) if Rachael Ray is really isn’t as fat as everyone says, where’s the proof? Here you go. She is no size 0 like the anorexic models out there, but she is certainly not fat in any way, shape or form. These pictures are from yesterday in New York where Rachael Ray helped kick off the Dunkin Donuts Serving Heroes Program:
Now - her horrible posture aside (My mama is wanting to poke her between the shoulder-blades AS WE SPEAK…) it is CLEAR that Rachael Ray is NOT fat, she is a NORMAL and HEALTHY woman, and all of ya’ll suxxors should just give it a rest. Talk about hating her food. Talk about hating her voice, her gestures, whatever - but for crissakes, LAY OFF her weight!
As a larger than normal woman - I demand it ya’ll eat a freakin’ donut, already, and chill.

maybe the pic is photoshopped, but Rachael is really on the way to become a fatty sooner or later.

By what logic? Those pictures in the white dress were taken 2 days ago. TWO DAYS AGO. Her only fault is the posture, and that she’s not a size 0.
By your statement, we’re all on the way to becoming fatty, sooner or later. Which makes no sense whatsoever. Not being a size 0 is not a crime. And if we took the time to teach our daughters this, there’d be far less eating disorders of all types and low self esteem caused by it.
Have a donut.

This is a fabulous entry today! I love the way you completely undermined the tabloid. And you just a little bloggin girl. Good work, Lessa!

Anyone with half a brain knows the NE pic is a ‘Chop, even the Suxters.
As a person with the misfortune to be built like Ms. Ray (even shorter at 5′), I personally have to watch everything I put into my mouth because I can blow up basically overnight. I also have a degree in nutrition and would advise your readers or anyone else NOT to eat that donut. Instead, chill with some carrot sticks and a protein shake.
DON’T infuse your cooking with a cup (almost 2000 calories) of ANY oil, even EVOO. Use ALL oils sparingly, and for God’s sake, don’t add more oil to sausage, ground beef, or other fatty meats, then throw some hot dogs in for good measure. You’re just asking for a premature heart attack.
Thanks for reading.

Thanks for the comment PMP - though a donut now and again won’t hurt you. But to each their own! (grin) All things in moderation.

*groan*
I saw this yesterday in the grocery store and just rolled my eyes … people need to stop buying crap reporting and we should all leave celebs alone.

I’ve been busy doing my Impersonation show here in Vegas Rachael but don’t worry babes I’m back.Now you MORONS are picking on her weight,I guarantee if these Idiots talking about her weight would send a picture of themselves in with their stupid comments we would see some real beauties,NOT,why can’t you just leave her alone and be proud of what she’s done and where she came from.I’m sure you DOPES can only dream of what she’s acheived and wish your miserable lives were a 10th of hers.I’ll handle these MOPES Rachael,you just keep on doing what you do.

You’re probably my new favorite blogger.
I saw the cover this afternoon in the supermarket and I was appalled to think that they could doctor an image that badly. These tabloid queens know exactly what they’re doing to get a rise out of people, I’ll say that much.
I love RR, I’ve always got her show on in the background. Sure, sometimes she can be a bit too spunky but she’s passionate about what she does, what she’s about to do and proud of what she’s accomplished. I’d consider her more of a role model than the ‘power-couple-publicity-stunt’ cuddled up next to each other on that mag cover above.

I love the way you took this on. Well done.
RR gets on my last nerve, but she has a cute little figure.
November 20th, 2007 at 8:40 pm
I love Rach. She’s so beautiful and has a very nice, normal body. Actually, showing some more leg would be great.

Thank God for tight girdles.

My god, they aired the Cindy Crawford episode today. If you think she looked anything like those Dunkin’ Donuts pics, you are seriously smoking dope: http://www.rachaelray.com/_media/07-24-08.jpg
Those arms are like tree trunks. She is wearing jeans 2 sizes too small and a sleeveless top 4 sizes too small. Threads were ready to explode.
And as for all you fat or over-weight people, put down the donut and pick up a piece of fruit. Nobody wants to look at a disgusting overweight pig. Nobody. Somebody needs to tell Rachael Ray to lose some weight. Don’t try to justify your poor eating habits by posting blog entries like this to make yourselves feel good. The second we allow being fat being okay is the day we failed as a health conscious country. And Rachael Ray is FAT.

Oh and Lessa, enjoy your Type 2 Diabetes!
August 6th, 2008 at 7:14 pm
Sorry, buddy. She still isn’t fat, not even in that picture. And also? I don’t have type 2 diabetes. My blood sugar, and other levels are just fine. Eat a doughnut and enjoy yourself - because obviously? you don’t get out much.
I feel just fine - just the way I am. too bad you feel the need to consistently cut others down to justify your own inner turmoil.
September 20th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
she really has put on weight look at her in recent episodes im not saying it is bad though.
February 6th, 2009 at 4:44 pm
Stumbled here quite by accident. Oh yeah, the EVOO Queen of Fatty Foods is FAT. Sorry, she is. I am a personal trainer and nutritionist (size 2 and lovin’ my bod, thank you very much) and I noticed that people who criticize us “skinny bitches” are usually morbidly obese themselves. I’m just saying …
I’ll skip the donut, thank you. Sprouts, anyone?
March 16th, 2009 at 8:19 pm
This post might have been true two years ago, but I’m watching Rachael Ray -right now- and she looks identical to the “shopped” picture you posted, if not heavier! She uses way too much cheese and olive oil in her recipes, and it definitely shows. Yuck. I’m with PMM, on this one–who eats donuts, anyways?
