14 DAY TRIAL // For the past few years, Angelina Jolie's weight has been tabloid fodder, with many “experts” claiming she was severely malnourished and unhealthy-looking. A new report is now saying that Brad Pitt might be responsible for her declining weight.
It's not that he's been telling Jolie she needed to lose weight, the latest print issue of The Enquirer (story via CB) claims, but rather that he has a way of telling all his ladies that he likes them “rail-thin.”
According to the tab, which cites sources close to the star who refuse to reveal their identity, Brad's type of woman is very slender, to the point of underweight.
He doesn't specifically tell his partners that they must lose weight, but he finds means of letting them know that, the report claims.
“Brad doesn’t come out and demand his women be skinny, but in a not-so-subtle manner, he drops hints. If he’s constantly comparing his current girlfriend with his exes, it has to start making them feel self-conscious about their bodies,” the insider says.
He did the same with Angelina, who was considerably heavier when they first met though, as fans must remember, still on the slender side.
“Brad likes his woman super-thin for their red carpet appearances, says the close source. When Angelina first met Brad on the set of 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' in 2004, she weighed 115 pounds [52.1 kg], which seemed a healthy weight for her 5-foot-7 frame,” the report notes.
Apparently, Angelina is now “wasting away” at less than 100 pounds (45.3 kg), which is very unhealthy for her weight.
As noted above, this is a pattern visible with his other girlfriends as well. Both Jennifer Aniston and, before her, Gwyneth Paltrow started shedding the pounds once they stepped out with the handsome actor.
“He used to talk to her about how thin and fashionable his former girlfriends Juliette Lewis and Gwyneth Paltrow were,” the spy says of how come Aniston was convinced she needed to be slimmer.
“It was a way to motivate her. So Jen lost the curves she used to show off on 'Friends' and she dropped to a waifish 109 pounds [49.4 kg]. Today, Aniston is dating Justin Theroux and she’s a shapely 120 pounds [54.4 kg],” the report further argues.
