God Bless Liv Tyler

While I loathe the fact that all little kids these days are fat, I greatly admire women who don't feel the need to look like thirteen-year-old boys:

"The Lord of the Rings" star Liv Tyler is paying no mind to the Hollywood suits who want her to shed poundage, according to the Internet Movie Database. The 26-year-old daughter of rocker Steven Tyler says she has been told by movie bosses that she risks losing top film roles unless she reduces the size of her God-given bod. But Liv, who trimmed to a svelte 125 pounds for her part as heroine Arwen in the "Lord of The Rings" trilogy, then piled 28 pounds right back on after shooting wrapped. She insists she's happy with her weight and doesn't want to diet. She says, "I've been told that if I lose weight I'd have more work, but . . . to the rest of the world I am slim and I like the way I am."

Now, completely off the subject, has anyone seen Anna Nicole Smith lately? I hear she lost something like 50 pounds, but I've yet to see the evidence.
