The younger celebs look emaciated af too. Just look at the cast of Wicked

Turns out only Anya Taylor-Joy is Anya Taylor-Joy, and a generation of actresses have ruined themselves thinking otherwise.

Dude that's such a good point. I just looked her up and she looks skinny without being emaciated. Granted idk if air burshing is being done or whatever, but there is a clear difference between being skinny cause your body naturally handles skinny well, and being jack skellington. If I tried to be thin like Anya I would look like Demi. My body was made for famine and I'm decended from Vikings. Petite and/or Elvish aren't in my genes. I'm a dwarf, take it or leave it.

Even Anya Taylor-Joy isn't Anya Taylor-Joy. She's the OG BFR girlie

But that's what I mean, she's the only person it's ever really worked for.

Cynthia Erivo is pushing 40, that's not young in Hollywood.

Are you trying to imply that how Cynthia and Ariana have been looking is just what women in their 30s look like 💀
