E! fashion correspondent sets tongues wagging once more

Giuliana Rancic has been with E! News for a very long time, and she’s always there, in the first line of duty on the red carpet at all the big award shows. Last night’s Golden Globes 2015, airing live on NBC from the Beverly Hilton Hotel, were no exception.

Giuliana was there to interview celebrities and ask all the ladies who they were wearing, to talk about jewelry and hair, and tips to getting in top shape for the awards season. While this was happening, many people online couldn’t pry their eyes from her apparently ever-shrinking frame.

Eat a sandwich! Make that two!

Rancic has always been very thin, and as such, she’s often bombarded with “eat a sandwich” comments online, especially on social media, or she gets concern trolls voicing their worries about how she might be killing herself by refusing to eat, just so she can always look “red carpet ready.” Apparently, this means “thin.”

At last night’s gala, she wore a pink, strapless Lucia Hohan gown that finished in a dramatic fishtail. As you can see in the video below, you could see the hip bones through her dress, and her shoulder blades were sticking out when she showed off the back of the dress to the cameras.

That was more than enough for people to start saying that she was “scary thin,” “skin and bones” or even “skeletal,” and urging her more or less seriously to pick up a sandwich ASAP.

Others also noticed that Giuliana was looking uncharacteristically orange, which was actually standard fare at the Globes last night. Every other star in attendance seemed to have overdone it with the fake tanner, bronzer and makeup (here’s looking at you Jennifer Lopez and Kristen Wiig), to the point where they seemed to have just returned from a vacation… on the Sun.

Concern trolling isn’t really helping anyone

All those claiming to be “worried” that Giuliana is getting too thin and saying so online, on social media, probably know that this kind of concern trolling isn’t really helping anyone – and the least of all the person they claim to help, Giuliana, in this case.

Plus, she’s always said that she’s healthy, that she takes good care of herself (that includes eating, too), so there’s really no need for this attention on her slender frame.   

“I know that I eat a lot and I take walks and I have a faster metabolism. I always thought it would catch up to me and it hasn't quite yet. I'm not trying to be cocky. Anyone who knows me knows I am the least arrogant person. I'm just trying to be honest,” she said in a 2013 interview.

Is there a reason to doubt she’s telling the truth?
