I dislike the reality show because of what looks to be posturing (rich folks' day-to-day routine isn't my thing), but yeah, it would take her mere minutes to get into my jeans.
@mervbaby: I say this in response to the idea of a certain body type being "in style". Like how big bottoms seemed to be more in style a few years ago, but maybe aren't so much now? Or maybe the trend's not going to get any bigger (no pun intended)than it was a few years ago? Question mark?
I know that I am probably going to get shot metaphorically but I really don't like the whole freaking concept behind this.
I am assuming that these are weightless squats and lunges. Which means, YET AGAIN, there will be a workout DVD that tries to remake a woman's body without using strength training. I know it's a pet issue of mine, and I know you're probably tired of hearing me talk about it, but for the love of Cory Everson can enough be enough? I bet money that Kim Kardashian didn't train for whatever bikini shoot she does by doing the workout she espouses here. She probably does weighted front squats. And yet now she expects everyone else to do weightless ones.

Kim swears, "I'm always trying to figure out how I can get in my jeans by Friday."
Do you only wear jeans on Friday? Do you expand every weekend? Have you not figured out that it's easier to just buy pants that fit you every day? I have so many questions here.
I dont find anything refreshing about her. She is beautiful and has a BANGING body- she does now that she's more "fit" and she did when she was a little heavier. However, she's a vapid "socialite" who's star rose when she befriended Paris Hilton and did a sex-tape with Brandy's brother. She has no discernable talent and her reality show makes me wonder how Bruce Jenner hasn't lost his mind and set his annoying stepfamily on fire yet.
She is only a media mainstay because of the public facination with the lives of the affluent and her crazy proportions. She does NOT represent a new acceptance of body types. She's just basking in post-J.Lo butt worshipping.
Not long ago I was looking for some exercise tapes (yes I still have a VHS player SHUT UP) and all they had were these celebrity and "celebrity trainers" videos. I couldn't find just a basic workout tape.
@SevenNationArmy doesn't care about your vegetables: I do the Biggest Loser dvds, and they are amazing. One is a really tough bootcamp style workout, and then there's a fitness yoga one that is really awesome. I highly recommend them.
as somebody who also has boobs and a butt, i can sympathize with anybody who's looked at most of the empire-waisted fashions (tops, dresses, babydolls) and realized these don't look good on anybody with large boobs, no matter how slim the rest of you is.
the idea for her video is interesting but if you've got wide hips, no amount of flat abs is gonna make skinny-leg jeans flattering on you.
@msAnthrope: I agree, but you just find other shit that looks nice on you. I mean I look nice in empire waisted stuff (I think!) but skinny jeans/anything with a low waist/flounces on hips looks awful on me. It's a shame but I just let it go, you know?
yep, that's what i've done... sometimes it takes a bit more work though, because empire waists seem to feature across the board in so many catalogs and clothing lines, so there can be less to choose from. every once in a while i find a "modified" empire waist where it isn't cut right under the boobs but instead is more fitted to the top of the abdomen. these look okay on me!
i'll never forget the first time my guy and i were in a checkout line a couple of summers ago, and i was wearing a very pretty empire-waisted babydoll. "oh, you're pregnant!" smiled the cashier. she was very young-ish and saw me with my guy, so she probably was just trying to be nice.
i decided the top would look better on somebody else so i gave it away!

I will now require a lunch date before I support someone's 'healthy body shape'.

To answer this question, I defect to the O-Jays:
Money money money money. MON-ey!
Money money money money.
For the love of money
People will lie, Lord, they will cheat
For the love of money
People don't care who they hurt or beat
For the love of money
A woman will sell her precious body
For a small piece of paper it carries a lot of weight
Call it lean, mean, mean green
Almighty Dollar.

Sometimes I look at an amazing pair of skinnies, or high waisted super flares, then I try them on and feel a bit sad, but it was never meant to be.
