The Daily Mail Goes to Ridiculous Lengths to Highlight Kate Moss’s Cellulite
By Leah ChernikoffOh, Daily Mail. This is ridiculous, even for you.
Today the British tabloid published a story in which they highlighted Kate Moss‘s cellulite, now immortalized on Louis Vuitton’s fall runway, by comparing her ass to the rears of four other hots pants-clad “normal” women, ranging in age from 26 to 56. The point of the story, I think, is about how these women keep their asses in gear so they don’t wind up looking like Kate Moss. Personally, I’d be thrilled to resemble Kate Moss (who is 37) in anyway–ass included. Also? The 56 year old is a fitness instructor–so not fair.
But look at this lovely image they created so you can play “guess which is Kate Moss’s bum?” Can you guess!?
Thoughts, reactions, vitriol? Tell me.

I think its hilarious , she’s human after all ! I also didnt think she looked that great on the LV show, you cant say the short shorts favored her …. but she remains KATE !
Way to put pressure on women’s figures, Daily Mail. No one, not even supermodels, is perfect. I think that the writer should submit an ass shot as well.
The writer isn’t even credited. I’ve noticed that to occur in a lot of publications when they run shitty, polarizing pieces.
Well said.
Good one. If not the writer of that piece, then the Daily Mail editor. They missed the real problem with Kate’s appearance though, that was smoking the cigarette. I know it “looks” cool, but really, it ain’t. Stinks too.
great point!
What’s your problem? We should be thanking the writer, then, for showing us that not even a supermodel is perfect. In my mind, it takes the pressure off!
she used to get flack for being too skinny. now, she gets flack for having cellulite, which over 95% of women have. is this supposed to be progress?

Progress? What a silly statement. Would no more standards of beauty represent progress to you? Would attainable standards of beauty represent progress? LOL?
Never mind the fact that the majority of American and European women *are* overweight. ( That’s a fact, not conjecture. )
Here’s the deal: Women compete with each other to be the hottest, youngest and fittest. And they tear to shreds those who can’t compete. There’s never going to be any “progress” from that eternal, universal truth.
If you’re fat: Lose weight. If you’re starting to sag: Tough beans.
What do you want? A fairytale?
For the astronomical fee that she charges she could be looking a little better “down there”.she definetely is in her last days…
The British media is just awful. No wonder they have 8-year old anorexics over there…

Yeah, I think it’s absurd, typical Daily Mail fodder but I also don’t understand why Fashionista is writing an article about it and therefore increasing the DM’s readership – I’d rather read your own original content than a re-hash of their shite.

OMG! The fact that Kate Moss has cellulite in NO way makes me feel better about myself. If someone as stunning as she can have it, us normal folk are f*cked! And really, the Daily Mail is just ridiculous for going there.
Also, I’d LOVE to see what those other women look like from the front.
The Mail piece does show that and has a short interview with each.
All the smoking and drugs fucked up her face too…

Kate is an icon. People try to tear down icons every day. Big snore. Ignore.
If none of those models, Kate Moss included, can make that outfit look good I say the designer failed miserably.
You are so right! The article is just a silly thing that people (especially men) like to look at over a morning coffee – a parade of women with ordinary lives into which the famous Ms Moss is put to show that she may not be so extraordinary after all. It is almost impossible to take a bad picture of this woman, so congratulations to the designer and photographer who made the impossible happen!
I agree, and the lighting in the Kate pic is not flattering (and neither is the garment).
But there has been no mention in this discussion that cellulite is common and quite normal – the fibrous cords that connect the skin to the muscle push down on the underlying fat causing dimpling. It can be more obvious with extra weight and poor lifestyle choices, but even the slimmest women (and also men) may have it. It’s rough to criticise women for being normal!
I remember the British press criticizing Naomi Campbell for having cellulite… when she was only 23.
oh my!
oh fuck off, who cares! the daily mail readers’ legs I would surmise, on average, have a lot more cellulite.
She is in TERRIBLE SHAPE – especially for a model. Fact.
Each model in the pic has some cellulite. It’s natural.
Guys, it’s the Daily Mail… they have proved to be misogynistic, reactionary, racist and homophobic on many occasions. No one should be surprised or pay them any attention.
OMG her ass is so saggy who n da hell would fuck her
OMG tht 1 ugly ass
They all look awful. What an awful awful outfit that is. It makes them all look just dreadful.
why would this even be news..? everyone has their own idea of what is good/bad anyway, so whichever is Kate’s rear is the junk she sportin’ in her own trunk and really not to be compared to anyone elses in the lineup. Besides, her rear can look anyway it wants to when she’s getting paid the big bucks to walk a show, as long as it fits in the garment. Its her face and image that the designer/company is paying for. Let’s turn the whole line around and compare that too,in fairness, right?

Great look if your under 14 or pre pubescent…WHO decided they were fashionable any way? As always, sex sells…looks like the cast of Cabaret…
I don’t know that the Daily Mail went to ridiculous lengths. Don’t be angry because your bum looks like Kate’s. It’s totally natural.
You do not need to be a fitness instructor to keep your bum in shape, I am over 40 and mine is pert and goprgeous.
I think that when it is your job to look great and you are paid for it (ie Kate) teh least you can do is take care of your work tools. And I also want to add that naturally slim woman do exist and are also normal.
jeeeeez … Kate is caught in bad light and the others are not. Most of us have cellulite, whats the big deal!
kate is second from left, right? not the middle!!!
All the women in the picture have cellulite…
