Christina Hendricks is a Terrible Role Model

June 30th, 2010 // 118 Comments

In an interview for the latest issue of Health magazine, Christina Hendricks extols the virtues of packing on the pounds to feel “like a woman” which is making it hard for me to defend her until the new season of Mad Men gives me a scotch-filled boner and I forget everything I’m about to say after this quote:

I guess my mom raised me right. She was very celebratory of her body. I never heard her once say, “I feel fat.” Back when I was modeling, the first time I went to Italy I was having cappuccinos every day, and I gained 15 pounds. And I felt gorgeous! I would take my clothes off in front of the mirror and be like, Oh, I look like a woman. And I felt beautiful, and I never tried to lose it, ’cause I loved it. [Laughs.]

Okay, I’ll give Christina Hendricks this, it’s not always hot to see models who look like Holocaust survivors, so encouraging those women to slap on 15 pounds might not be a bad idea. Everyone else, it stops being cute halfway through the first attempt. I don’t care how giant and freakishly hypnotic the ass on your chest ends up getting. Now if you’ll excuse me I’m suddenly compelled to mail Christina Hendricks a stack of pancakes. Yes, masters….

    This has to be like a four am picture you can see she looks great and glam upon arriving but the post pic looks like she has been shagged six ways from sunday((lucky)). I have hugs boobs which sometimes I hate and I was hesitant to see the comments I thought it was going to be maddd madd hate but… wow! It’s nice to read that people think she is hot even though she isn’t a twig.

    –although I do think she could lose a few lbs…. I’m just sayin……
    Horray! The Marilyn-type is hot again!

      the “marilyn” type is hideous, overrated, and not only is she NOTHING like that tramp (except for being trampy of course), but it’s been “hot” for like… what… 50, 60 years…? where have you been?

      and what the FRICK does her not being a piece of wood have to do with the price of tea in china?! Just because she’s a chunky butt with a gut and a boob job (that does NOT make up for her bad face, need for gallons of makeup, and flat butt I might add) has ntohing to do with the poor anorexic girls in the world if that’s what you mean, which is sick to say and you should be ashamed of yourself. People like you make me love girls like Miranda Kerr and Audrey Hepburn all the more, not because they’re ACTUALLY pretty with or without makeup and don’t need plastic surgery of any kind or slutty dresses, but they’re happy, healthy, not disgustingly unrealistic and overweight like her and have CLASS.

    This woman is so pathetic. Honestly, is she famous for anything else than pushing her big fat boobs up to her neck in every single event she goes to? I have a large breasts too but I’m not going around wearing super low cut top with some crazy push up bra that brings the boobs 20 inches higher than where they should be. That look just SCREAMS for attention! Sorry guys, it’s just sad.

      Yes, she actually is an actress in an amazing TV-Show.

      BIG SURPRISE

      And I want to use that cleavage as a pillow someday. Thank you.

  4. What the FUCK has she done to her hair.

    Speaking as a sexy redhead she puts us to shame!!!!!

    Oh and btw, if I’d have boobs like that I’d present them just like that. Even though this dress is pretty damn ugly, those boobs are not.

    I think she is the hottest chick in hollywood right now !

    • Rai

      Because not everyone can have taste! :D

      • Kate

        HAHAHA! You’re telling people to ‘grow up’ when you can’t accept the fact that people have different opinions to you? My six year old son knows to accept other people’s opinions.
        Also, Christina Hendricks doesn’t need to write nasty comments about somebody she doesn’t know just to make herself feel better.

  7. Cock Dr

    I would like to examine her.
    Bad hair day honey. Did you husband jump you in the limo or something?
    The Tribble accessory is interesting. It looks like a big cat toy to me.

  8. sinister righty

    15 pounds because she was drinking cappuccinos? She done be doing it Britney Spears style, yeeehaw.

    What’s with the hair? Seriously, did she fall asleep at the event???

  10. Wardrobe Malfunction

    What I wouldn’t give to motorboat that woman. I’m glad she gained 15 pounds – looks like it went straight to her tits.

    • Rai

      wow, get some taste much? so if she lost the fat you’d have no interest in her right? people like you are disgusting and have no standards. you see big boobs, usually fake but you’re that DESPERATE that you dont care, and that’s all you see from then on, ignoring her flat butt, bad face, tons of makeup, fake hair color, etc.

  11. jezabelicious

    Great another bunch of cave dwelling neanderthals who probably have beer guts and love handles, dare to poke out those underwhelming brains to make dick and fart jokes about a woman who has the courage to be honest about enjoying not being a size 0.

    Good lord no wonder women have body issues.

    The author this piece is another one of those idiots who thinks he stands a chance with a woman in any class as close as Christina Hendricks. Pathetic.

  20. Confused

    So I’m confused…she’s supposed to be a big girl? And what’s wrong with gaining weight?

    It’s not like she said she became OVERWEIGHT or OBESE…she just gained weight. There’s plenty of girls who need to do that already.

    And honestly who wants to ride a stick?

  21. mia

    oh fuck off, she is not a terrible role model, granted not all christina hendricks fans should slap on 15 pounds to looks like her, she is promoting a healthy normal womanly body and not weight gain, rather than promoting excessive exercise and starvation to attain her body she is promoting healthy living by enjoying life, so please shut the fuck up you are putting her words out of context. She is an absolutely beautiful woman who looks like a woman and not a skeleton.

  22. Kate

    So….ummm….was it a woman who wrote this? Perhaps a very JEALOUS woman?
