What others are saying

  • This is a beauty pageant....
    not a "look how much I resemble a cancer patient" pageant. The shot she has of winning is the same as her dress size...ZERO.
  • Is Miss Universe Australia a bag of antlers or hot?
    The former. NOT attractive at ALL!
  • No one is ever happy
    Unless they can moniter if you're too fat or too thin! It's none of your business!
  • So Fine
    Compared to America..Bag of bones
    Compared to Ethiopia..Fat Cow

    If she was Fat would this even be news worthy? Fat is just as unhealthy is being skinny. I could see the Headline! "Is Miss Universe Austraila to FAT!"
  • she looks like:
    Reminds me of something I saw during pictures from the Holocaust...
  • Solid Food
    She needs to discover the joys of food that requires chewing.
  • A wee bit thin BUT!!!!
    I'd hit that way before Queen Latifa, BIG Rosie or 99% of what I see around Duke U.
  • Unnaturally skinny?
    Just as some people, OK most people, tend to be overweight, some people tend to be underweight.

    I am a 60 yo male, I am 6ft 2in and weigh 227 lbs. But from the time I was 18 until I was 46 I weighed between 130 and 140lbs with the same 6ft 2in height.

    I ate anything I wanted, drank anything I wanted and exercised regularly (I was in the U.S. Army from 1967-1989)

    I even had a Commander who sent me to the Dr because I didn't meet the weight tables. He called my CO and gave her some rather salty advise on what she should be spending her time on.

    Too skinny? Get over it.
  • sheese
    Sweet fancy Moses. Of all the problems we have in the world, why are people worried about if this chick is refunding.
  • thinness
    When I was 17 years old I was six feet seven inches and weighed 129 pounds...I neither starved or purged...I ate like a pig...all the time. Metabolism drove my thinness...not behavior. So try not to be so quick to determine cause. Now I am six feet eight inches...and 350 pounds....I don't think I was ever an optimum weight according to other people...
  • miss uni
    So ugly her ugliness is exotic
  • Fitting into Socialism
    Listen to those anal do-gooders trying to dictate how much a contestant will weigh. It's human nature that some individuals will be naturally thin or thick, or easy going, or effing control freaks.
    Some in here would love to 'hit' that. I'm with the 'too skinny' crowd, but she won't have any trouble finding a date. The only people I have bad words for are the socialists who say she should lose the right to compete because her genes don't fit their criteria.
    Pompous Equus Asinus.
  • too skinny
    After 25 years of marriage they ALL look anorexic.
  • Miss Australia
    Why is her weight, or lack of, any business of ours? For that matter, any business of anyone? I'd be more than happy to let her have my extra 20 lbs. and a few of my years if the truth be told.

    My daughter runs very near the size of this young woman; she's 38. If I ate as much as she I'd tip the scales at 200. She is very healthy but inherited this gene from who knows where. Neither her father or I claim it, but do say we'd like to have some of it active in our systems. Of course she exercises daily, takes their dogs out for a 3 mile run and doesn't pig out on junk food.

    Miss Australia's arms are the only part of her which appears overly thin. The rest of her is well proportioned. As with my kid, I hate her for this. Mine has been called the skinny b**ch by me for years, but only laughs when I say this, knowing it means nothing and she is very loved by her old Mom.
  • Re: too skinny
    She could use a bite to eat. And I got somethin she can munch on! awwww yeah. It's a philly cheesesteak sandwich. What? What were YOU talking about??!
  • definitely too skinny
    she needs to put on at least 20 pounds. most models are too skinny, but that is just gross
  • I wonder....
    I wonder why you find a woman that looks like a starving 14 yr old boy is attractive? Hmmmm.... Apparently the laten homosexual population here is larger that expected.
  • Get READ AUSTRALIA
    Looking at the final few seconds of the clip she's not the only one that is super wafish. Maybe we should use this to teach our daughters very few are that skinny. but to require future beauty pageants to be a certain size is dumb!
  • Mostly both
    She's too skinny for my normal tastes, but she is still SO SMOKIN' HOT I'd still ...
  • RE: Smee McPhee
    Right on. Its the same reason why they claim free speech and then scream over people who don't agree with them.

    You know whats even worse? A lot of TEACHERS are the same way.
  • Skinny!
    I am 5'11 and a healthy weight now. In my young stupid days I subsisted on less than 800 calories a day and got down to 128. I looked emaciated! I can't imagine going twenty lbs. less than that, I would have been in the hospital or dead.
  • definite no
    http://ca.news.yahoo.com/s/reuters/090423/entertainment/centertainment_us_australia_pageant

    ...check the above link out I think this pic settles the debate. Some skinny washed-up ole gezzers probably have more of a posterior..
  • B.M.I.
    I am 5'2" and fall under the B.M.I. as underweight, but I'm perfectly healthy, and eat quite a bit. The BMI doesn't take certain things into consideration, such as bone mass. I have a naturally small body frame, but it certainly doesn't man I'm anorexic. It may be the same with this woman, and either way, the contest should not put such restrictions
  • she's all that...
    and a bag o' bones
  • Careful
    You could put an eye out with those shoulder blades
  • bag 'o bones
    If the reports are accurate and she's 5'11' and 108lbs, she is grossly underweight. And yes, that weight would require her to have little to no muscle tone.

    This begs the question... were the judges a bunch of gay men?
  • Goddamn Fashionista Fascists
    People who want to institutionalize public health never cease to give conflicting messages, and thus demonstrate why the individuals themselves are the only ones qualified to make those important choices, not a confused bureaucracy...

    The "wrong" type of grease in our food has become a controlled substance, and yet the people I've met that support this decision also think that they should be able to buy and smoke marijuana legally.
    Many of those same people also believe that it requires a law to keep people from smoking tabacco in the wrong places.

    According to them, there should be a 'right to die,' such as doctor assisted suicide, and yet certain prisoners must be kept on "suicide watch."

    We should never sentence a convicted murderer to death, just in case there's a chance that we kill an innocent person, or even if they are guilty, because of all the potential that person might have had to live a better life.
    And yet, a woman supposedly should be able to abort, (and kill any potential life,) of any fetus she wants, for any reason, without consulting the father, or the grandparents, just in case it might inconvenience her during the time it takes for the adoption.

    Another mixed message over "what's best for society's health" comes now from girls who grew up being taught to hate their Barbies, because their moms were jealous of the "unhealthy image" or "unobtainable ideal" she portrays. And yet, we are supposed to support a utopian socialized medicine scheme exactly BECAUSE it is an ideal, an unobtainable ideal, because then our intentions would be good. But, teaching abstinence is somehow too irrationally optimistic for them.

    None of it adds up, and the biggest hypocrisy comes from those who are so quick to push the relativist's point of view in their attempt at "tolerance." They'll say things like "there is no black or white, just shades of grey," in order to justify the idea that somehow traditional values of right or wrong no longer apply, and that you're a "demented redneck" if you try to stand up for what you believe in, or if you conserve worth in the American Dream or even just sitting around the dinner table with your kids, and talking to them about having standards.

    They'll preach that everybody has to "break free" from the constraints of the 'out dated' morals and define for themselves their own personal morality. But, not if you're too fat and rich for them, or too skinny and pretty, in this case.

    "To each his own" only applies when they're getting theirs. And how dare you talk about it on the radio, without asking their permission. Don't you know they won THE election?!!
  • Body Mass Index
    is indicative of exactly what?

    BMI by itself doesn't mean diddly-squat. According to BMI, I'm obese. But my body fat ratio is 7% - I'm a mesomorph (all muscle).

    That being said, Miss Universe Australia is a bit too lean for my preference.
  • Miss Universe Australia
    Who gives a damn? And besides, every male poster here would hit it. Because as Neal says, every man is a pig, no exceptions.
  • I'd Knock the Bottom out of it!
    She's damn sexy!
  • Oh lord
    Do they have a golden corral over there?? She needs some food!!!!
  • I'd hit it...
    ...with the fist of an angry god! I think she has teh AIDS!

    /bag of antlers
    //lol
  • Gross
    I don't see any purpose served by a body like this. She is very pretty if you just see her face (as you do in some shots) but her body looks like those videos of extraterrestials you sometimes see on Art Bell's website (pale ghostly slips).
  • Skinny or not
    Come on! All I hear from Neal are complaints about all the lard butts in this world, so someone comes out w/out all the extra baggage and I have to hear this? Give the kid a break...she might be "lactose intolerant" and not know it. Sadly, I looked about like that at 19, but many years down the road now, and I'm "pushing maximum density". She'll get over it, too but it's not like she's about to drop in her tracks. We're all really jaded about what "thin" is, after the desensitization we've gone through looking at the blubber around us.
  • Eeek
    That's scary thing. unattractive. Who wants to fool around with a bag of bones?
  • And
    She kind of has that big-eyed Runaway Bride look (Hyperthyroidism).
  • definitely not a 'bag of antlers'
    I see nothing wrong with this young woman's physique. My daughter is similarly proportioned, definitely has no eating problems, and is capable of running 5 miles every day of the week, and is very limber. [Dirty old men will kindly keep their pie holes shut.]
  • Too skinny, but healthy
    This look is really unattractive. No boobs, almost no lean muscle mass in her upper arms or thighs. Sort of like a 12 year old boy. But I don't think she looks unhealthy. You can't see her ribs or shoulder blades or spine sticking out, her skin & hair look good, and her eyes are bright & clear. She doesn't look like somebody with an eating disorder or a drug addiction. Give this woman a couple of peanut butter sandwiches and send her to the gym for an hour every day, and I'll bet she'd look perfect after a few months.
  • She's not a she.
    Guys aren't supposed to be in these pageants, no matter how pretty they are.
  • Miss Universe Australia
    Years before fast food, TV, video games, car for everyone, and welfare for bums, WORKING people were skinny.
  • Yeah, she looks scary. It looks like you could snap her arm just by twisting it a little.
  • Bag of antlers
    Sorry folks, but the term is far from a Boortz original.

    And yes, this poor young girl is either starving herself or purging. She is unnaturally thin.
  • Too skinny
    Reminds me of Save the Children ads. She just needs the flies around her.
  • skinny
    OMG!!! She looks just like Caren Carpenter did just before she died of complications from anorexia!! That's gross!!
  • Young and Skinny
    This "girl" is 19 years old. Keep that in mind. If she really is genetically skinny then she should be thin at this age, but she should also grow out of it in the next few years. My concern is her apparent lack of muscle tone. She probably does have a relatively healthy diet, but probably doesn't excercise like she should.
  • Hot or Not
    Yes, she is too skinny. Yes she is hot.
  • Way too skinny!
    She needs to put on another 10-15 pounds. I myself know I am overweight and am taking measures for that. But the one poster's comments about anyone oer 110 lbs having food restrictions? PLease! I really am big boned and taller- 5'6", and shouldn't go below 140.
  • thin or what
    I think she looks great. Her ribs are not sticking out, her hair and skin look perfect.
    In 20-30 years she'll probably still look like a woman and not a bucket of lard in a mu mu.
  • Nasty
    but that's just my opinion. I like petite, but damn! Not that petite.

    The problem I have with this is the holier than thou busy bodies demanding a weight minimum for the pageant. Will there be a weight maximum too?
  • Pretty thin
    But I would definitely lick her stamp.
  • One more thing
    I forgot to add that, while I have never been to bed with an ugly woman, I have certainly awakened with a few.
  • Hot & Skinny
    She's way too skinny, but still hot. I'd hit it without hesitation.
  • I'm reminded of...
    the old off-color joke about doing you know what - and then listening to the bones crack. Those of you that know the joke know what I mean. LOL
  • Hot
    Eat a sammich already. If I were her BF I'd be affraid I'd break her.
  • Quiznos
    Somebody please force feed this chick a sandwhich! I'm not saying that big chicks are hot, but either extreme is fugly. I certainly wouldn't hit that.

    O.K. maybe I would, but I wouldn't be proud of myself!
  • and the others are fat?
    every last one of them had protruding hips and colarbones.. why are the singling out the winner? and if they are all that size, they are clearly each others competition. Maybe none of them eat.
  • Yes, she's pretty and skinny.
    If she truly had an eating disorder, she should get help, but believe it or not some people are just that way.

    BMI is an extremely imperfect guideline; in fact, it's a pretty terrible one where extremely healthy people can be considered over (and in this case under) weight.
  • Miss Universe Australia
    "Bag of Antlers" That's as good as it gets. Only Neal could come up that that description. I'll have to add it to my skinny as a rail, toothpick, etc.
  • I like to hear their bones creak . . . she's a hottie, and so is calista flockhart!
  • Bones
    She has a pretty face, but her skin and bones body is just NASTY
  • Not bad
    She's not bad looking, but she would look really hot with 15-25 lbs. added to that scrawny body.
  • Ms. Australia
    As a photographer, it is axiomatic that the camera adds ten pounds.

    As I have a number of decades under (and above) my belt, it has been my experience that when the women who look like they have been taking those Noassatall pills turn 40 or so, their equally chronicalogically challenged colleagues are steatopygic, and the former bags of antlers are just right.

    I am photographing a size 1 chippie next week, and I predict she will photograph delightfully, as she is very nicely proportioned.
  • Fatties
    I see a HOT woman. Our society has become FAT, and everywhere I look I see FAT, lazy, out of shape women. I am now being force fed to accept FAT, lazy, out of shape women as the norm. No thanks.
  • Think of this
    Cameras put 20 pounds on how you look. Imagine IRL!!!
  • Miss Autralia
    Give that poor girl something to eat!
  • Miss Australia
    Pretty face, but way too thin. Add 15 pounds and she would be HOT!
  • Painfull
    Wow..too skinny! Getting next to her would mean those bones poking in you. She needs to eat a biscuit or two.
  • Ugh!
    Hot - Not! Doesn't turn me on.
  • Wo cares
    just a different body type google ectomorphic body type.

    At least she only needs one airline seat.
  • Too skinny - freaky skinny
    I like thin girls, but that's just boney.
  • skinny
    Poor girl is in danger of falling through her assh*le and hanging herself.
  • MMmmmmm
    The closer to the bone, the sweeter the meat!
  • Giraffe woman
    I think she's a hot bag of antlers.
  • Bag of Hot Antlers
    A little skinny for my tastes, but I'd still hit it. Far better too thin than too fat.
  • They were all rreally skinny.
    but no ribs showing and no collapsed tummies. So I vote HOT.
  • skinny
    she's to skinny. if a man hits that she would cause bruising, down there. oh my!
  • Definitely too skinny
    If this was 1945 I'd be asking if she had just been released from Auschwitz. She doesn't even have enough muscle in her arms to keep them from flailing about when she walks. Let her spend a couple of months in America armed with only a McDonald's gift card for her meals. Although, even this may not help. She looks like a "purger" to me. Hit it? No, I'd crush that twig like a bug.
  • I'm gonna go with "bag of antlers".
  • Nah, too thin
    Too thin. But, if she was going for Miss Universe Somalia it'd be a healthy match.

    btw... bag of antlers... thats laugh out loud funny!
  • That reminds me, I'm late for my xylophone lesson.
  • anorexia is HOTT*....
    she looks perfect. there should height, weight per age laws in the US*.... over 110-lb's...serious food restrictions. = work-out-camp's.....
    SAVE AMERICA'S WILD-LIFE, loose weight***.....
  • YIKES!
    Way too skinny. Women should have curves!
  • No meat
    Her ribs aren't sticking out but she's doesn't look healthy. Tell that girl to have some peanut butter samiches or something :)
  • Bag of...
    She is definitely a bag of antlers.
  • Miss Australia
    She's at least a bag of hot antlers... Maybe a distant cousin to Ann Coulter?
  • Yikes!
    Way too skinny. Women should have curves!
  • Eating Disorder
    If she were my daughter, I would insist that she be put into treatment. She has the classic look of an anorexic. She is not "naturally" thin.
  • Is Miss Universe Australia Too Skinny?
    Too skinny for what?
  • stick figure
    She's ghastly skinny. There is no way a person can be eating healthy and look this way. Pretty--no. Wholesome looking--no. Gross? YES!
  • super-skinny women (and men too)
    I've never heard the term "bag of antlers" to describe super skinny people.

    I have, since I was a kid, have always referred to them as "toothpicks". Good example of its use, "Calista Flockhart is not attractive because she looks like a toothpick."
  • Somebody needs to get Sally Strothers on this
  • Hot
    She is hot. Thats my vote
  • Too Skinny?
    Yes, she is too skinny. And, no, I wouldn't hit it. Aside from the fact most pageant contestants have the ego of Kim Jong-Il, I would probably crush her.
