Janice Dickinson Wishes Her Models Were Anorexic
Can someone tell this anorexic, plastic ho to go away? The welfare of models should not be a concern of designers, Janice Dickinson declares. "It's up to the models, the parents and the agents," says Dickinson, who is herself in the position of hiring models for her L.A. agency. "I'm dying to find kids who are too thin. I've got 42 models in my agency and I'm trying to get them to lose weight. In fact, I wish they'd come down with some anorexia." When you laugh at such politically incorrect statements, Dickinson yells back, "I'm not kidding. I'm running into a bunch of fat-assed, lazy little bitches who don't know how to do the stairs or get their butts into the gym."
One very pretty model candidate on the show came in for some particularly harsh Dickinson criticism. "She had a big, wide, low-slung ass. She's gotta do some stairs. She's gotta do lunges. She's gotta have sex on top. Anything to get her ass of the back of her knee-caps."
Dickinson, who says she's still the "perfect sample size four," says nothing about the beauty business has really changed "I've been saying this ever since Brooke Shields squeezed her 15-year-old little ass into a pair of Calvin Klein jeans (in 1980): Models are supposed to be thin. They're not supposed to eat. In fact, I'm not going to eat for the rest of the day because we had this conversation."

Hmmm...looks like Janice is packing on the lbs
I can't even begin to tell you how MUCH this angers me.
Being someone how has personally struggled with anorexia for almost five years and is now, finally in recovery after being only a few weeks, if that, of basically committing suicide but finally getting help and realizing that people in her life care not for her weight but HERSELF, her soul, this is fucking offensive! What a fucking bitch! How DARE she say that she wishes a disease on someone! She might as well say, "HEY! AIDS makes you skinny because you're DYING!" Why not contract that! "Hey! You're anorexic, you're dying! Great! you're skinny as a goddamn twig! We'll hire you!" How do you think she'd like it if being bald was the new skinny and HER modeling agency hoped she'd get cancer so she'd have to go on chemo and become bald?! What kind of human soul ARE YOU, JANICE DICKINSON?!
Janice. I hope you're reading this. And i hope never you have a soild nights sleep after saying such fucking idiotic comments. And if you meant for them to be humorous, try another career because humor and anorexia aren't exactly the most peachy keen couple. And lastly, fuck you for even saying such ridiculous shite to a toxic society that is already and HAS been struggling for years.
Below pond scum lies you.
hugs and mother fucking kisses.
get back to me janice. scissor_lock@hotmail.com
Dear sweet deluded Anonymous
Don't you realize how useless it is to hope Janice Dickstickingoutofher a solid nights sleep? Crack ho's don't sleep!!! They prowl the streets desperatly searching for paprazzi to beg and bribe to take their photos, so they don't have to face the reality that they have nothing left to offer.
hmmmm...
If this Janice woman really said those things, then either she's seeking for attention; anything to be controversial and get her picture taken. OR this women's a bitch from hell! I wouldn't want to join her agnecy that's for sure!
Janice is a fag! she has no lifa so she lives off of others to have a life. "a perfect example of a size 4" come on thats bull shit Janice is UGLY!! so go take that dick of your janice and suck it beacuse no one wants to be with an anorexic whore!!
Ugh.
Shes so unatractive.
All she is is skinny,
but she has a cold heart.
How blah is that.
I LOVE JANICE!! she’s real n ur all just hatin mann! She brutally honest & thats what people can’t handle. This is the way the modelling industry is run and if you dont like it SUCK OUTTT! athletes are generally muscular, sumo wrestlers r generally fat, jockeys and gymnasts are generally short and models are generally skinny!! GET OVER IT Janice is being realistic, no-one will want that girl she mentioned if she doesn’t “get her ass off the back of her knee-caps” and she knows is and is the only one brave enough to say it. They do need to get to the gym, you have to work to get into every profession, athletes and wrestlers train as they need to have a certain body type. SAME AS MODELS they have to loose weight to have that certain body type - and in this case its skinny! However i don’t agree abusing your body to get their is the right way to go about it. ……………. OHHH AND CAN I JUST SAYYY i’m 16 years young, my measurments r 32,29,34, & i’m about 5'6. I’m a healthy size uk6 and my b.m.i is normal, I’m naturally like this and i maintain a healthy life style. I exercise 3 times a week, dont eat much junk food [the occasional weekly choco] and I HATE IT when PEOPLE CALL ME ANOREXIC!! Y can’t i walk down the street without people thinking i’ve skipped breakfast, thrown up my lunch n am havin a carrot 4 dinner or thinking i need to put on weight and WHAT’S WRONG WITH BEING SKINNY? U r all too quick to judge a person who you think is too skinny, those who choose not to eat and confront them about it … WELL Y THE HELL DONT U DO THE SAME WITH FAT PEOPLE?? U wouldn’t go up to someone who is size 12 or 14 and say to them ur eating too much u need to loose weight because it’s rude so what gives you the right to go up to someone who is size 2 or 4 and tell them they need to put on weight because thats also rude. People desire to be all shapes and sizes so leave them and let them get on with it … all you can do is advise them on the best ways to get where they want me be. Think about it, you wouldn’t tell people who are eating too much 2 stop eating and loose weight so why is this any different?
uhm, person above me? Do you realize that the average model's waist is 23-22 inches? wouldn't you say that's pretty freaking ridiculous? And people think YOU are too thin, imagine seeing a supermodel up close!
However I agree with you that people of all shapes and sizes should be appreciated and admired for their unique beauty.
(FYI, size 14 is the AVERAGE and, may I add, HEALTHY size of a women. That's NOT fat. You seriously need to learn what's thin, what's fat and what isn't.)
Janice is brutally honest and I do actually like brutal honesty, however, it's really sad that to be the ideal in our modern society you have to be 5'11", 115 pounds and have a 22 inch waist.
Oh, and "16 years young"? lol, you're young by definition. Live and learn.
I cannot believe that there are people actually defending her.
So i went to her webcite and went to meet the models and guess what i found??!!
Traci Moslenko 5'8" 108lbs BMI 16.4
Lisa Riddle 5'8" 113lbs BMI 17.2
Lakiska Finger 5'9" 110lbs BMI 16.2
Ligia Rodriguews 5'10.5" 114lbs BMI 16.1
Those were just the 1st 4 models but all of her models are under 17.5 so as far as the medical community is concerded that are all anorexic. and if that isnt enought their bmi is so freaking low that they most likely are not even menstrating anymore.
The saddest thing is she is always complaining about there weight!!! well she did say she wanted anorexic models she has them.
If it was me i would say "HEY just eat the damn pizza and ice cream"
wow.
does she realize that models are DYING from anorexia?..
i can't wait to see her face when all the models in her agency die from being anorexic, just cause she wanted them to be a fucking size 0.
Girls who are that skinny, deliberately aren't attractive at all. Women are supposed to have curves, boobs, hips, thats what defines them from men! Alright, fair enough, if naturally you're that weight then as long as you're healthy thats fine. But, if you're striving to become anorexic just because you're asked to by someone who thinks they know what's best then get some help. It's not good for you at all. You need to do what truly makes yourself happy, not others. Everyone's seen the proof of how dangerous anorexia is so why even do anything crazy like that on purpose? Sure, that cow's being honest but who is she to judge anyone else? People who are healthy weights should be used for advertisements to promote good health, rather than bloody anorexia. It's madness. Oh and one more thing, 'fat' people generally do get slagged and told to lose weight, just like unnaturally thin people are slagged and told to gain weight. If it's gonna save your life then do it for your own sake!
P.s That woman's an a*** hole. Everyone in her agency should just ditch her. Where will anorexic models get her then, eh?
Holy fucking shit, I can't believe more comments weren't left here! I came here as part of a self education process on this insidious disease. How dare Janice Dickinson suggest anyone above a size zero should be considered "fat". I am size 6-8 and turn heads everywhere I go. All who are fighting this disease, you go, girls (boys, too! I know you're out there).
I think shes wrong. Anyone over a size 10 is fat!!
Well, i think it was wrong for Janice to 'wish' Anorexia on anybody, it is a nasty thing to encounter.
But i do love Janice Dickenson, shes one of a kind. I dont think she really meant what she said, if any of you watched Im A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, you can clearly see she said ad did things just to seek attention. Shes a very bold woman, and she makes it known that she is so passionate about the modelling industry and thats why shes still there to this present day. I know shes not a heartless as she seems, i think shes very genuine and is caring deep inside, however, i understand that her career comes before herself, or anybody for that matter. Thats why shes so successful at what she does.
Janice Dickenson is absolutly fabulous in my eyes.
Janice, I think you should be ashamed of yourself. You are a disgrace to all women (and men) out there. If people who are above a size zero are fat, than I suggest you become anorexic.
I find it to be really sad, that Janice Dickenson and other women of this generation are afraid to have curves. And to boot, it is not just the modeling world it is even in showbusiness. When the hell did it become official to become skin and bones?! It seriously blows my mind that people of that mentality call women like Marilyn Monroe and jane Mansfield fat. Those women were curvy and sexy and FYI, no one wants to feel a boney woman's bones crackling or feel like they are making love to an ironing board!!!!!!!!!
I hate to say it but Janice is right about Traci gaining weight. I don't believe she is 108 lbs like stated before. That probably was her weight last year. I'm looking at the show now, and Traci is developing a slight double chin when she smiles, and she has love handles developing. Her size is fine for an every day women, but she is in a modeling agency. She did gain a lot of weight from last year. Janice is right!
hmmm im guessing over half these angry commenters are overweight. Its a danger of the industry - get over it. People work at steel mills, glass factories, blah blah. Having to maintain a very low bmi is not the healthiest thing in the world but it dosent guarantee anorexia - or health problems for that matter. I weigh 110 and am 5'7" (BMI of 17.2)and my doctor says im in pristine health. Get over it.

If I could be Janice, I would finger myself (bulimia rocks!) Anorexia blows, skinny asses.
this lady needs to be shot, as if she would wish a horrible disease on people just so she can make money off them, girls this skinny isnt attactive, im a size 10 and 174 cms tall and i get more complements on my body then i want but it just shows that being super skinny isnt cool.. more to the point being that skinny is just as bad as being to fat.. who does this women think she is..
She's obviously joking. You have to understand her sense of humor, she's not trying to offend anyone, and she doesn't literally want her models to become anorexic. She just wants skinny models. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. People take things way too seriously and offensively.
OK LIKE DO U PEOPLE KNOW THERS SOMETHING CALLED MEDIA ..YALL SHOULDNT BE BLAMING THE LADY MAYBE SHE DIDNT EVEN SAY ANYTHING AND YALL TAKING EVERYTHING OUT ON HER AND IF SHE DID SAY THIS THEN I HAVE TO SAY SHE IS COLD MINED
Some peoples comments just proves how ill-educated they are, especially when some of them are just around the age of 16 and are not wise enough to be commenting on such serious matters....This is a serious disease and anyone to be defending it are the ones being reeled in by this media obsessed, fast food, modern technology, stereotyping world!! If people are naturally thin or larger than what is the so called normal weight...what ever that may be and it isnt affecting their health then i think it's absolutely no ones business to comment on whether they're thin or fat.
However if stupid inconsiderate people are promoting anorexia nervosa then they really need to take a page out they're own book and imagine if they encounter this tragic disease if they would then feel it is ok with having models this thin in the industry. I don't think they would be so quick to be so high and mighty.
Janice has gone to far with her outburst this time and has probably lost allot of fans through this. I hope she never forgets the faces of the poor girls who have already dies and struggling with this illness that she knows of in the modeling industry and then thinks again before wishing something so terrible on her own models this is the sickest comment iv'e heard.
And to the ignorant person on here that said we all must be fat making comments against janice dickensen well missy, go and eat some pie and rub it in your face u sick pig because most of the people here have put their weight down and no were not all fat just not stupid like the little girls on this page. I am a healthy size 8 so go and suck on Janice's dick u bitch!!!!!!!!!!!
Shut up everyone. You know nothing of the modelling industry, or even more what it's like to be skinny. Janice is one of my heroes and shes has a multi million dollar company. Plus size, fat models are NOT models. They shouldn't even be in the industry. Modelling is about showing the beauty of clothes and fat people ruin it. Janice knows what shes talking about, and i think to a degree shes kidding. Anorexia has nothing to do with not models or any of that, it's about how the brain is wired, so people aren't going to get it just randomly because Janice Dickingson told them to lose a few pounds. I give her full marks. Shove off fat people.
too bad janice has cellulite on her ass.
Janice should be alowed to say whatever she pleases. who is anyone to say thats wrong. its not like she's MAKEING anyone aneorexic. cant anyone take a fucking joke? so what if she's shallow? so are you guys "she's so ugly" wtf its irrelevant anyways
im waisting time..
She may be joking, but I wouldn't doubt there was some truth in what she said. Janice can be funny, but all these modeling shows with stick-thin girls doesn't portray a very good message to younger gals today. I just wish they would do away with modeling itself and all these shallow reality shows. It would do some good for a change.
I don't even know how to explain how mad I am that Janice said this. She needs to go off to some mental ward or something because letting/wanting somebody be anorexic...its just not right. i meen, telling them they need to be, then they are, then they die. It would be all her fault. Come on, if you love this woman, your so fake and your probably just like her. She is setting a terrible example for young girls and teenagers, its just not right. In my opinion, this bitch should gain some weight and encourage girls that have some body to keep it..(even though probably most of these girls are already tiny).
BTW, all you people who say 12 or a 14 is fat? Its really upsetting. In America, thats a normal/average size. If you don't like it, thats your problem, now GO AWAY.
Okay, so wishing anorexia on people is slightly harsh. Being someone who suffers from anorexia myself, it's not some little game, it's a real illness.
However, I still adore Janice Dickinson nevertheless. She's brutally honest. This stuff is the TRUTH, face it. Thats the modelling industry. If you don't like it, don't follow it.
You can't be a model if your body is not up to standards. Who makes these standards do you ask? Society does. It's just the way it works, DEAL. Also, designers want their clothes looking the best they can, and they feel that they achieve this on skinny models.. and it WORKS. "Say no to size zero" supporters need to get over the fact that no one wants to see a fat person on the versace runway. No one.
Most of you angry commenters made me laugh out loud. Especially the "size 14: average and healthy" one. Yes, average, because North Americans are mostly obese. Healthy? I think not. If you're a size 14, you most likely have a waist of over 35 inches. A waist measurement of anything over 35 inches puts you at risk for heart disease. Is that healthy?
Good luck to all you "idealists." Have fun living your life in disappointment.
janice you are pathetic..
anorexic models are wafer thein, not real people..
you need to think about what you are saying..
maybe you sghould be anorexic..
hah..
jokes on you now..
When YOUR relative dies from anorexia Janice you'll understand. I'd listen to Jamie Lee Curtis first everyone! SHE knows what true beauty is.
I think that it is wrong to judge people like that. I have a sister that has anorexia and i really hate it, it tears me apart. janice is a bitch and should go to hell. why would anyone can put innocent people in that kinda strain and be in absolute agony just to be a size 0. Some people are naturally thin and some people aint, that does not mean they have to force themselves to be a twig thinking thats perfect, think about what happend to the band carpenters and all the women dying and died from this. You dont have to be a size 0 to look beautiful, its what the inside that counts.
for school im doing an assignment on ANOREXIC MODELS AND HOW THEY BADLY INFLUENCE YOUNG TEENS. i may only be 14 but age doesnt matter. alot of my friends think they are fat and have forced them self to throw up after eating. why would you want to look like a freeakin skeleton with a layer of skin covering your bones? janice dickinson, yeah she is and incredible woman but wishing for girls to be anorexic, thats jsut cold heart. how can they wwant people to become seriously ill! fair enough you love your caree but should have to starve your self and change your life style but is it worth harming yourself, risking your life for some job. these girls have a whole life ahead of them they shouldnt comform to suit others needs. beauty is not being a bag of bones. beauty is how you feel about your self, being comfortable in your own skin, being conident with who you are.

janice dickenson is a fucking idiot. an attention-craving whore. thats all these comments were. her 15 minutes have obviously been up for a while now- so this is just another lame (and slightly fucked up) attempt at getting some attention..ANY kind of attention.
even if it makes her look like even more of a ignorant sociopathic bitch. (and btw janice dickin-yourmouth-son....if i were you, i wouldnt try to promote anorexia with a body like yours, all it is is a loose fucking bag of flesh)
eeeWWWWW!!!!!!!
While clearly anorexia is a horrible disease to struggle with and should never be wished upon anyone, Janice does have a point in that realistically, the models that get hired are generally extremely thin.
In order to be hired as a model, you need to be appealing to companies and if thin is in, you need to mold your body shape to fit that. By entering the modeling industry, you are accepting that the jobs you get will be based on your looks, and you must be willing to change your appearance in order to be hired. Some of the methods that are frequently used by models to achieve the "right" look are unhealthy and saddening, and certainly eating disorders are not a good method to turn to. However controlling your diet, both the types of food you eat and the quantity, and working out both are good and healthy ways to keep your body the way you want it.
Also, as a model, you must be willing to accept criticism such as Janet's. I'm not saying that these are nice things to say or that her behavior is acceptable, but realistically in looks-based industries, you will be criticized.
I am 17, 5'11, and weigh 111 pounds. My BMI is 15.5, which means I am considered anorexic (BMI between 15.1 and 17.4 according to www.bmi.name/). However, I keep up a very healthy lifestyle and am in good shape. I eat three complete meals a day and snack whenever I am hungry, and have never suffered from an eating disorder. To me, it is offensive when people say that people of my height and weight look "disgusting" or "like skeletons". This is my natural weight and I have never starved myself to look this way. I understand that some models sadly do succumb to eating disorders in order to fit into the modeling industry's idea of how a model should look, but some people naturally have a thin build, and shouldn't be criticized for it.
WOW! I'm anorexic, & I don't like it one bit!
Janice is such a fat cow! How can she critisize young beautiful girls & call them fat when she is like a goshdamn HIPPO!
Janice, I never knew a cold heart weighed so goshdamn much!
wow! this lady is crazy. she obviously does not understand what anorexia does to your body, its painful. and this bitch is trying 2 come at bigger girls. at least theyre healthy and happy.
and... we do not use those rude words "fat" or "fat cow/ hog" its just so rude. janice is a Bacon Iced Tea Cheese Horse.
Who cares about what that plastic pathetic woman say's. SHe's so ugly and she just has to complain about other peoples weight to feel better herself, It's so sad how a woman in her 50's can be sooo brain dead. She is desperet for attention. Congrat's janice you got attention, but everyone laughs at you!
Yeah... I did the whole anorexia thing, and Janice can say whatever she wants, but it is impossible to be happy maintaining a 5''11 114lb body. You're always sluggish, people think you're 20 years older than you really are because your face is gaunt, you can barely carry your own groceries...it's really pathetic.
If being 5''11 and 140lbs, with a 25 inch waist and having a (gasp) six-pack is "fat", then I want to be "fat" and feel sexy and alive the rest of my life.
Hey, I've got a brilliant idea!
Let's all switch to photosynthesis to get nutrients,and organize a "Run, Swim and Do Sit-ups while Running and Swimming from London to Rome" charity thing! I hate my strong white teeth and shiny hair, but no worries- anorexia will deal with that too! Is this a win-win situation or what! But the best thing, people, is that ...hold your breath... we'll get to be something that Janice her would hire! I mean, wow! Hell, who needs healthy organs when they have the actual chance of looking like a coat hanger!
I spent 3 years battling anorexia, which is nothing compared to the 25 years some have spent fighting it. I got my period just a few months ago, even though I'm 17. It's soooo much fun not having any boobs at all! I feel special. And pretty.
edit: Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my native language :)
I don't think anorexics should be helped, just the same way obesity is not considered a mental disorder... if you're overweight you're told to "go on a diet". Anorexia should be treated the same way.... "just eat something, you damn fool!"
They're just looking for attention and having been in a mental hospital, I've seen how they enjoy all that attention and try to look helpless and feel sorry for themselves and everyone's like "ah shame.. poor little thing" (vomit!). It's a personal choice to live or die. If you choose not to eat... wooo hoooo! more for the rest of the world who are starving because they can't afford food.
as for ms Dickinson... who cares what she says... models are ho's and have no brains anyway.
