See, here's the thing, I was a skinny-mini myself all through junior high and high school, couldn't gain weight to save my life and I was an absolute rail, LESS than a rail, so I understand the plight of the naturally skinny woman.
However...
Once you reach a certain age, your body and its metabolism changes and even though I would still widely be considered slim, I am by no means the weight I was when I was 17 and never will be again. When vertebrae is visible on a 30 year old woman, there is something else going on. And isn't it Nicole Richie who's all "I eat what I want, whenevah" and, well, look at her.
Don't worry, I won't go monting a soapbox about skinniness in Hollywood, I understand why it exists. I just can't say that I buy it when women are emaciated and claim to not have a problem.
...and although Pompeo's dress was passable, the greasy helmet she called her hair was enough to drive the whole look into the ground.
