All of you who think she looks good and sexy are probably looking in the mirror at your lazy, "EAT ALL DAY" self. American's simply eat too much! She looks disgusting.
January 20th, 2008 9:27 PM
Wow that is a dirty trick. We all put on some weight here and there but to put on 100lbs in a year is a serious problem. Pierce would justified in leaving her (and probably wise). She's does NOT look 'fabulous' (#1 comment is a very delusional fat girl) and she should not be encouraged to think this is ok. I feel bad for her but I feel much worse for him.

Victoria.. I hope you burn in hell
Karmageddon.. you rock baby!
and this is coming from someone who is a size 5!!!
January 21st, 2008 9:24 AM
Candice, no way are you a size 5. Sorry, but healthy, fit people DO NOT encourage or applaud unhealthy behavior. Only fat people do.
I'm sure Pierce Brosnan loves his wife, but if Keely truly loves him she'll do something about her obesity. And she is obese. Brosnan's first wife died a premature death from ovarian cancer. How sad that his current wife is not risking the same ends (obesity increases the odds of many ailments, including cancer) but has other miserable fat people egging her on.
Candice, when you were typing those insulting comments, were you at the same time dribbling cookie crumbs all over the keyboard? I somehow suspect you were. When you see another fat person, you see validation. Healthy people see a sad, unhealthy body that doesn't have to be that way.
You can tell me to go to hell. Fat people like you are already there.
January 21st, 2008 9:51 AM
There was a typo on my previous post, which should have said that Keely is NOW not only risking the same ends but has other miserable fat people egging her own. I'm sure if I hadn't clarified it, some size 20 out there would have used the misprint as further validation to have that third cheeseburger for lunch.
January 21st, 2008 10:27 AM
I think the sad thing here is not whether she is obese, (she obviously needs to loose some weight) but that the world press have made such a to do about it! The poor woman was having a lovely day with her gorgeous husband and child, she looks supremely happy and then look at all this uproar! For God's sake! No wonder Pierce took a swipe at a nosy pap recently. The Brosnan's are good people. Supporters of many charities and they do their best for the environment. Pierce and Keely are obviously very happy together and a good example of how Hollywood couples should be. Let them have some peace and privacy. There are more important things to comment on.
January 21st, 2008 11:20 AM
I'm not saying she isn't a nice person, and if the caption was about Keely's charity work, I sure wouldn't have commented on her weight. But the caption was about her weight, and whoever wrote it applauded her for being "true to who she is."
In a day and age where obesity is a growing problem for not just adults but children as well, shouldn't a public figure strive to set a healthy example? And what does it say if an advocate for the environment appears to be a glutton? Can a person like that really preach about conserving resources when she's obviously eating an amount that would feed several people?
I'm sure the Brosnans don't like the scrutiny, but that's sadly the price one often pays for fame, especially when they use their star power to preach to others about how they should live.

The woman is fat. She is fat. She can afford to get help. She can afford a personal trainer. She is a tall woman and she is fat fat fat. Call it the way you see it. When you look at pictures of her and Brosnan when she was thin he is clearly in love. Now he is stuck and so is she. He looks away when he kisses her, look at recent photos. And he is not seen with her much.
January 23rd, 2008 11:41 AM
Geez, Victoria, give it a rest. You don't know this woman, you have no idea what she eats, and if she has struggled with losing weight. Just because she is a part of a celebrity couple doesn't mean that she doesn't have the same struggles with will power and dieting that other overweight folks have. And you cannot just assume that she is unhealthy because she is overweight. I recently lost a lot of weight, but even when I was very heavy, I was not in danger of having diabetes, my blood pressure was low, my cholesterol was good, etc.
And I am shocked by the various posters who indicate that Mr. Brosnan would be validated in leaving her or that he can't possibly love her, and that men don't really love their women who are overweight, it is just a fetish, that fat people are in hell, etc. So much vitriol and hatred ... Maybe it is because I have been through it, but I don't look at overweight people with disgust. And I don't feel superior because I did get myself in shape. It is different for every person, so who are we to criticize Ms. Smith (or anyone)?
January 23rd, 2008 1:00 PM
I lost a lot of weight myself but tend to agree with the people who think Keely Shaye Smith could do better for herself and her family. If you are fat you are more likely to develop health problems. Just because a fat person doesn't have problems at the moment doesn't mean they aren't around the corner. A smoker might not have cancer or emphysema at the moment but aren't they more likely to get it? I think that is what people have been trying to say.
Men who love their wives still love them even if they are fat but I bet if you asked my husband or Pierce Brosnan or any man whether he preferred a fit wife to a fat one he'd tell you he'd want his woman to be healthy and in shape. Maybe this is old-fashioned but I don't think it's fair to rob my husband of the beautiful woman he married. I feel great to be able to return her to him after a decade of being way too big.
January 26th, 2008 12:50 AM
She looks happy and confident, which is attractive in itself.
January 29th, 2008 12:45 PM
I'm wondering what all of you are basing your fat criteria on. The BMI scale? That is a terrible place to start. I am a personal trainer and I deal with many women that are healthy and yet outside the BMI scale. How do you know she isn't able to run 8 minute miles? Stop judging on what you have no basis. Oh wait that's what these sites are about you shallow folk. Worry about yourself.
January 29th, 2008 6:38 PM
FAT OR THIN, I believe the photogs have gone too far. THEY ARE DRIVING THESE PEOPLE TO THE POINT OF MADNESS IN SOME CASES. SPEARS DOES STUPID THINGS, BUT WHY DO THESE PEOPLE HAVE TO BE IN HER FACE? celebrities in the 40's and 50's did not have it this bad, and the public LOVED its' celebrities as much as we do now. We have just lost all our manners.
January 29th, 2008 9:42 PM
Women who say Keely looks attractive at this weight are deluding themselves. By no means do I think "lollipop" stick figures like Laura Flynn Boyle are attractive (I am 5"4" and weigh an ample 116 pounds), but there is a difference between healthy, ripe curves and unhealthy fat. Keely crossed that line quite a few pounds ago.
January 30th, 2008 1:26 AM
she looks disgusting. over eating is a sin. after she had kids, of course she would be big, its natural. but she is not carrying baby weight. thats blubber and don't get pissed because someone reading this may be in denial abou their own self not being able to admit they are fat. she is still pretty and beautiful. but nasty and fat.
January 30th, 2008 1:44 AM
Wow. Given all the nastiness regarding this woman's weight, I'm actually relieved to be anorexic--at least no one is that mean to us. While there appears to be shame in being too fat, there's obviously no shame in being too thin. I'm sure Keely is aware she's overweight and now she has to deal with a bunch of jerks criticizing her on top of it. To those of you being mean about it--if you ever have an anorexic daughter you have to put in a $1,000 a day treatment center because she thought she was fat and is now suffering kidney, heart and liver damage, you'll wish she were carrying a few too many instead of too few. Look in the mirror, people--you're likely not so perfect either.
January 30th, 2008 9:20 AM
You're wrong, Z. The mags are very hard on skinny people. Have you not been reading any of the press slamming Nicole Ritchie and Mary Kate Olsen for being unhealthily thin?
It's a common ploy of fatties to find solace in extremes. Why does it have to be one or the other with you people? Do you really think aneorexia is the only option to obesity?
There is no reason to be unhealthily thin OR fat. Unfortunately, Z, people like you obviously can't deal with the truth so you throw out the red herring of aneorexia in an effort to prop up a case that's hanging like your spare tire.
And before anyone accuses me of being mean, I'll gladly admit that while I'm sympathetic with people who truly struggle with their weight, I have no patience for "obesity advocates" who not only live an unhealthy, food-centered lifestyle but try to tell others it's OK.
January 30th, 2008 9:37 AM
Victoria, I have anorexia. I'm 30 lb underweight, am a marathon runner and therefore do not have a 'spare tire' as you suggest. I just don't want anyone else to be triggered because I don't thin there's help for me,it's a bit too late and I have to live with it.
January 30th, 2008 9:40 AM
Maybe you missed the part where I wrote, "I'm actually relieved to be anorexic".......
January 30th, 2008 10:11 AM
Just one more thing...I don't understand how you interpret someone trying to defend Keely from mean comments is an obesity advocate. So she's fat--she probably knows this. I don't care if someone else is fat, they're not me. I psersonally would rather be dead than fat. I'd cut off a toe to remain underweight forever. And I bet I'm thinner than you.
January 30th, 2008 12:30 PM
Jenny Craig needs to hire her as their new spokeswoman. Of course she's a beautiful girl but come on you can't convince me that she's happy with her current weight. She has the potential to be healthier and thinner as we seen in the past.
January 30th, 2008 11:10 PM
Wow! Not trying to be rude, but it sounds like many of you have some issues yourself. (Who cares what size you are, and who is skinner than who!) It is about being healthy that matters!! I don't think anyone is trying to be an obesity advocate here. When the site said that Keely is being true to herself, I think it means that she is dealing with current situation in a confident positive manner. Just because she looks the way she does, does not mean she has to cover herself every inch of her body up and hide. I'm sure she was just trying to have a nice fun day with her family, just like the rest of us in the world. I can bet that she is not completely happy with herself, and I can also bet again that she will not be at this weight the rest of her life. People change! Also, who says that she hasn't struggled with an eating disorder which can be just as serious as diabetes or cancer? (Not accusing her of such) Just a few comments on other peoples comments...Who says Brosnan doesn't love his wife now? Love is not based on what we look like, but instead it is based on the actual person and their qualities. yeah, it's nice to be healthy and skinny, but I know I would love my husband no matter how much he weighed, honestly! Also, I believe that being too thin is just as bad as being overweight or obese. Honestly, our world is too obsessed with weight and appearances! Note is "Z": I have been an Anorexic, a bulimic, and everything in between for many years in the past. I just want you to know that it is never too late to get help! It is one of the hardest illnesses to overcome, but with the help of friends, family, and professionals it is possible. I overcame, it and I am not fat, so please don't ever give up, please!

Hey Angela,
Thanks for the encouragement....and I don't typically get snippy about being anorexic and thinner than someone unless that someone has pushed my buttons by acting superior herself.
It's difficult to want to recover because even though media and culture appears to be critical of too-thin celebrities, they don't seem to be as cruel as when they report on some overweight celeb. When you're too thin, it's like "look, the poor thing is wasting away". Too fat and "She's really let herself go, the slob".
Victoria, despite the comment that you're 'sympathetic' with some fat people who struggle, your choice of words and presumptuous remarks (like someone dribbling crumbs on her keyboard as she typed) leads me to believe otherwise. Look, I agree with much of what you wrote--overweight can be unhealthy, unattractive and should not be 'promoted'. But you're outright mean about it and there's no purpose for that other than to insult and hurt others. The fact that you chose to express your opinion in such a condescending manner--repeatedly--says a lot about you.
Whenever anyone came to Keely's defense, you automatically assumed they must be fat and currently stuffing their 'pie hole' with junk. You didn't even read my first comment well enough to see that I have anorexia, you automatically assumed some 'fatty' was making the comment.
Now who's guilty of seeing things in extremes?
January 31st, 2008 9:04 AM
Z,
Obesity - not anorexia - is one of the biggest health issues facing this country, and it's seeing an alarming increase among our youth.
When someone chimes in and implies that anorexia is somehow the end road of weight loss is not just irresponsible but ridiculous.
It strikes me as ironic that those wringing their hands over how the "obsession with weight" can lead to anorexia are so willing to dismiss the fact that obesity advocates and/or apologists are providing people the excuse to continue to stuff their faces.
If the body image issue were as dangerous as you say, why are there more fat kids today than thin ones? It would appear that those encouraging people to "be happy with themselves" are winning - to the detriment of our bloated youth. So congratulations, guys. Good work. As I said, misery loves company and now you have a whole new generation of fat people to join you at the table.
But is this really a surprise? I think not given our culture, and Keely is a prime example of what is wrong with it.
Rather than use her public image to TRULY advocate for an healthy, environmental lifestyle that focuses on minimizing consumption, she's out there writing articles about how bright scarves and other accessories can draw attention away from a woman's large middrift.
If she's going to speak out, should she be doing that or should she be doing what Lisa wisely suggested - become a voice for a weight-loss regimen, and return to where she used to be which was neither too fat OR too thin. Because regardless of what you say, Z, aneorexia and obesity are not the only two choices. There is a healthy in between weight we should all strive for.
January 31st, 2008 10:01 AM
You're right that here are more fat than anorexic people. You're right for sure. Anorexia is a disease that affects only about 1% of the population. Having said that, it's also the most lethal mental illness and one of the most difficult disorders to recover from. Anorexics are anorexic for life.
And you're right that there is a healthy in between (I'm so messed up now that the healthy in-between seems fat to me and I'm afraid to even be there). You can still tell people they need to take action and lose weight without being mean about it, though. One nasty comment thrown at someone might kill them. That's my only worry (it almost happened to actress Tracey Gold). I'm stuck with anorexia and used to promote it--for a while, I was pro-ana and even meaner than you (EVERYONE was fat to me). Now, the last thing I want to do is cause someone else to fall into the same fear-filled hole I'm in.
Anyway I agree with you. I just didn't like the way you expressed it. The wrong words could really hurt someone.
