    She really pulls that off. I'd look like BOOBS! with a head on top in that blouse, so I envy her being able to wear it. She always looks amazing.

    Ergh. That Kate Moss quote is unfortunate. It sounds like a version of how it feels when you don't really eat..."empty" = skinny. Which is pretty close to how you rationalize avoiding food in an ED.

    Plus, it's just not true. Food has a pleasurable function, as well as being necessary to live. It's okay to eat because you like how it tastes, or it makes you feel good, or because you want to. Those are all component of "normal" eating. It's when anything gets compulsive that there's a problem.

    Also, if your mood is dependent on your size then something is off.

    @fattylumpkin: Incorrect. Though there were rumors they were going to marry all summer, Jacobs and Martone are still engaged — when asked about it recently, Martone said they're planning a wedding over the holidays. #katemoss

    I cannot decide which of these 3 treats is best. but I wish I could be at a state fair right now.

    Weird. My mom used that same weight loss phrase to help my dad; she wrote it on pieces of paper and taped them to the fridge and pantry.

    My dad is still as fat as ever. #katemoss

    Before Kate is crucified as another Elizabeth Hurley, here's the rest of her quote:

    WWD: Do you have a motto?
    KM: There are loads. There’s "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels." That’s one of them. You try and remember, but it never works.

    I mean, it's a silly motto, yes (and reminds me of that Stephen Gullo foolio), but Kate seems to realize that, at least. #katemoss

    @ILiketheWord'Pugilist': The full comment? When asked if she had a motto, Moss said essentially, 'Yes, I have a bunch,' and offered the one I quoted as an example. How is my quote reductive? It's not as if she said, 'Yes, I have a bunch,' listed fifteen platitudes, and I seized on the dumbest one. This is exactly and only and fully what Moss herself quoted as words to live by during the interview.

    @LvV: I don't really see how that changes what she said at all. Sure if she'd said that her motto was: "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels. Just kidding I love pizza and have a fab. body image!" then yes, only posting the first part would be disingenuous. Her motto remains the same, even if she stinks at following it, and if you are curious about the context of a quote, it's always good to click through to the article. The editors are only going to post so much of every item, how this isn't obvious, I have no idea.

    Whatever, I still like Kate Moss, this is just a good reminder not to become a model, ha. #katemoss

    @snugbug: I read the entire piece and I have no issue with calling Moss out on the quote. Anyone familiar whatsoever with eating disorders/pro-anorexia sites knows that's a common mantra, and repeating it as if it's some wisdom to live by is annoying. It's the motto existence that's infuriating, not necessarily Moss using it (though that doesn't help any.)

    As for your disemvoweled remarks, I'd advise you to take another look at the commenting rules of this site. #katemoss

    @GoldenRatioφ (aka -girl11): It doesn't really change what she said so much as provide a bit of context for it. Meaning, even Kate the Great herself admits she can't adhere to the motto (at least not all the time). So apparently things DO taste as good as skinny feels (or, more likely, hunger wins out in the end).

    And I didn't say anything about click-throughs or disingenuousness. #katemoss
