Cheryl Cole

'Cheryl's too thin to be an icon'

Friday 24 June 2011

Cheryl Cole and Jordan aren’t feminine icons, according to Germaine Greer – because their bums are too small!

When asked if the gorgeous Cheryl was iconic, Germaine said: “No, there’s not enough of her – she’s too thin.”

Germaine then launched into a discussion of Jordan, calling the plastically-enhanced pin-up a “genius” but saying “She is destroying herself and that’s not a pretty picture.”

In a bizarre conversation with Gordon Ramsay, on his Channel 4 Cookalong Live, Germain Greer said: “A healthy girl is a fat-bottomed creature.”

Not the academic’s most intellectual conversation perhaps but we can’t help but agree with that! If junk in the trunk equals feminine icon status, we think we’re worthy candidates!

RE: 'Cheryl's too thin to be an icon'

let me start by saying that both cheryl and katie price are perfect!!!!!!!!

katie price doesnt have a small bottom and that's just PERFECT

i think that they are thin because they eat sensibly and excercise, so what the f**k can u do, if u don't put on wieght!

some people even if they eat junk every time they open their mouth, dont get fat!! let alone with these stars, being on the go constantly!!!!!

the pressure is just enough!!!

i think clarabella is talking sh*t!!!

I agree with the eating part as I am a size 8 and eat like a orse but have never been bigger than a 10,but I do agree that a bigger bum is nice and have always been complimented on having a cocked and round rump!! But its wrong to say they aing feminine as a bum is something u are wither born with or without even putting on weight wont help you there as weather I go up or down my bum always stays the same.

well sorry for having an opinion kc! I agree with Germaine's comments that they are both ruining their looks.
They are both pretty but in my eye's Jordan has gone too far and is completely obsessed with her looks! (although in the picture above she looks gourgous,obviously an old one)!
She looked far prettier last year before she went all skinny and plastic obsessed!
cheryl is pretty,but again i think she is too thin,with no bum!
She hasn't always been that thin,its only since her hubby did the dirty!
And again in my eyes she looked far better with abit of meat on her bones!
Her head looks too big for her body!
Jordan's so thin cos she's had every bit of fat sucked from every limb,not because she eats a sensible diet and regular exercise!
If they both were naturally that thin,then why wasn't they both like it a couple of years ago?
I think kc is talking boll***ks to sugest Jordan and cheryl are that way naturally!

They are both pretty. But they aren't perfect. If Jordan was perfect, why has she spent so much money on cosmetic surgery? She's had lipo on her legs, a fair few boob jobs, a nose job, tooth veneers, she has fake nails and a permanent fake tan, as well has fake hair. That's just what i know she's had (she may have had a hell of alot more besides).

Cheryl Cole is undoubtedly very beautiful, but she is too thin. Her body has no shape. When you look at her she is just straight up and down. I also think (anyone please feel free to agree with me here), look at the pics from the Girls Aloud early days, Cheryl was significantly smaller in the boob department. Then a couple of years later they seemed to grow! She's 25, so when they started out she was 19. I would imagine her boobs would have grown to their full potential by then. Plus she is alot thinner now, so if anything they would be smaller now not bigger. I do suspect that she has had a very natural looking subtle boob job. I know she lost alot of weight through heartbreak, i just hope she puts some back on again!

Either way, no one should look at them as icons, because it's something that most of us will never look like. I think Cheryl's bandmate Kimberley Walsh is really pretty, and she's a much more normal size and shape, she's a better role model/icon for us women than them. And i know it's gonna ruffle a few feathers, but i wouldn't ever want to look like Jordan. She just looks so flammable!! And her skin is awful close up too!!

Oh yeah, and why is Jordan wiping her bum on the pic above ;-D

She's probably hiding the lipo dents! : )
I agree with leanne,Kimberley is a perfect shape and size and beautiful,as is Cheryl,but Kimberley has the better figure.
She is by far a better roll model than Jordan and Cheryl reguarding figures!
Cheryl's boobs have had a bit of a boost in my eyes,cos like you say,when you lose alot of weight your boobs go too!
I wouldn't want to look like Jordan either,she is so false looking,and personally i like my face to move with different emotions,not look like its frozen stiff!
Jordan is ruining herself,she's gonna end up looking like the bride of frankenstien,or micheal jackson!

So what if they're too thin! They're lives not Germaines-whoever that is?! I can't believe this person has made comments about these two. Havent they been through enough sh*t?! Leave them alone for god's sake. They get slated if they put a bit of weight on and even when they're too thin! Being a rold model/icon shouldnt have anything to do with someones size! They're both stunning women and they are lovely people. That Germaine person obviously has nothing better to do than to be jelous and slag them off. I think Katie looks beautiful but I don't think she should have any more work done.

RE: 'Cheryl's too thin to be an icon'

Jordan's a lovely person????? Have you watched her or read any interview with her? All she does is slag people off! She's got a real 'couldn't give a shit what you think' tone to her voice whenever she's on tv. And she speaks to her husband like he's something she's stood in - constantly putting him down and making fun of him in public. He might be a bit wet but she treats him like shit and she's meant to love him. She is attractive, but she was even before she spent tens of thousands on cosmetic surgery. That's not something most of us will ever have access to. That is therefore why she is not any sort of role model or icon for us normal women.
I would not look up to someone who has sold her body for a living, treats her husband like dirt and has absolutely no respect for anyone. I can't believe people go on and on about how she's 'been through so much'! Why?! Because she has a disabled son by a bloke who walked out on her and has had countless stories sold about her to the press? Sorry but there are alot of people out there who have disabled children and when you sell every aspect of your life to the media, other people are bound to try to cash in as well. And people say she's too thin??? Well she's the one who's had lipo and boasted about it!! How can you be a role model for women when very little of you is even real? Its not that i have no sympathy for her situation with Harvey, because i do, it's just that that doesn't give her the right to have a stinking attitude. Sorry but this really gets me cos you'd think no-one had ever been through anything like she has before.
Oh and for the record, i have never and would never say a woman of a size 8,10 or bloody 16 was too fat. Quite the contrary. If more women stood up to the media telling them they have to be thinner and more beautiful, maybe they'd stop printing unrealistic ideals, and all of us, including celebs, would feel a little more comfortable in our own skin.
