squat & squeeze

heidimontagcheckkkkk it out! do you want to look like heidi montag? well all you need is a nose job, a boob job, and THIS workout video! i say go for it. the 22-year-old reality tv star has taken her “fame” to the fitness world for her very own workout routine.

for only $19.95 you can find out all of heidi’s secrets! complete with butt squeezes & skimpy outfits, i’m sure this is her best work yet. montag opened up to self magazine about the vid: “the e-book is a healthy lifestyle to adapt and adjust your body to every day. you can download exercises, a plan to break-down what you should do each day, a whole health plan – it’s really a lifestyle of fitness.”

but what i really love is her mention of her hard work… i mean, her plastic surgery endeavors. “the fun thing about surgery is that they always have new things and you can always try things. i’m not sure what’s on that list right now, but i’m sure as i get older, i’ll want to keep up with maintenance as most hollywood does.” doesn’t that defeat the whole purpose of a workout video? why work out when you can just get it lifted & sucked out? well, heidi, i think i’ll pass on the video, thanks.

counterproductive

kind of confused – what is ‘self’ magazine’s mantra again? i thought it was to make women feel confident, healthy & fabulous in the skin their in. apparently kelly clarkson’s skin just wasn’t good enough! the music star is this month’s ‘self’ mag cover girl, and as you can see above it doesn’t exactly capture kel’s true essence.

recently the star has been criticized for her weight gain. in response, kelly says “my happy weight changes. sometimes i eat more; sometimes i play more. i’ll be different sizes all the time. when people talk about my weight, i’m like ‘you seem to have a problem with it; i don’t. i’m fine!’ i’ve never felt uncomfortable on the red carpet or anything.”

which is all well & good. all the power to you, clarkson! but here’s the thing. the mag cover is clearly photo-shopped. but editor-in-chief of ‘self’ lucy danziger claims that post-production corrections are normal. “self magazine inspires & informs 6 million readers each month to reach their all around best. kelly clarkson exudes confidence, and is a great role model for women of all sizes & stages of their life.”

people obviously viewed the cover pic as counterproductive to what the editor claims is the goal of their magazine. what did they think we wouldn’t notice?
