Bertinelli totally deserves credit for making good on her promise to drop six sizes. She’s been very public about her weight struggle (thanks in part to a lucrative endorsement deal with Jenny Craig), but I worry about the impact of plastering a total fake on the cover of a magazine that every desperate housewife in the country sees while waiting on line to pay for her groceries. The article only fuels the fire:
The night before Valerie Bertinelli prepared to step out in public wearing a bikini – for the first time in nearly 30 years! – she found herself unable to sleep. As her mind raced with insecurity (”I thought, Am I really going to do this? Can I pull this off?” the actress admits), Bertinelli tried to summon up a pep talk, telling herself, “What am I so afraid of? Come on – it’s just a bathing suit!”
“I thought, If I’m so afraid of a bikini, there’s something wrong. And so I had to get back into one!,” Bertinelli says in the new PEOPLE, available on newsstands Friday. [Source]
Maybe I’m being a hater but really, is there any way this woman has the body of a teenager right now? What do you guys think? Completely photoshopped or more real than fake? Make me a believer.
