I looked it up, says still filming. I always try to remember that they look a certain way for movie roles. You should see Jeffy poo Bridges now. He looks like a cross between Wild Bill Hickok and Colonel Sanders.

Don't people get hungry? I try to stay ahead of the hunger so I'm not starving but I get hungry and have to eat!

There's murder in my eyes about now. I'd like to think that it's just a rumor and he never said it.

I wanted to be like her when I was a teenager. Labyrinth was my fav film. I even went to thrift shops to have her outfit from the film. I loved her in He's not that into you (?) and tho' she seemed a tad too skinny to my taste I still thought that yeah she's a strong woman. After these pics: no way. She's weak and disappointed me.
Jeeezus, her legs. HER LEGS. Blimey.

The photo where her legs are skinniest, she's in motion, if you look at her feet both of them are off the ground - or in the top one the back on e is pushing off the ground, this could account for some of the look (not all of it as she is obviously very slender), however check out her legs in the photos below - they were only taken the day before the running photos....

Same skinny.

It's so painful to see someone do this to themselves. I really hope this frail physical appearance is for a movie role.
Otherwise, I hope someone close to her loves her enough to step in and help.
Heartbreaking.

Pipe cleaner legs

There's no muscle on her at all. Any strength exercises would help prevent muscle wasteage so she must be on an extreme diet of very little and just doing cardio. Even if it's for a role, which I doubt, you have to be pretty extreme with your diet and exercise to get muscle atrophy like that.

I understand losing/gaining for a role but even most actors probably wouldn't go to the point of wasting all their muscle away, especially if you have kids, to do that for a film is just stupid so I doubt that's the case. She has a history of eating disorders I believe. Very sad. She's so gorgeous and a great actress, hope PB didn't say that and that she gets better for herself and her kids sake.

That's anorexia. It can't be anything else.

**Karistiona** · September 7th, 2012, 02:28 PM

Whoa how sad, she was so beautiful and now she looks like she's at death's door.

**angileek42** · September 7th, 2012, 04:03 PM

Very scary.

**sprynkles** · September 7th, 2012, 04:28 PM

There are some very scary pics of her from like 4 years ago here
When did Jennifer Connelly get so thin?

She looked even worse back then.

I watched the Labyrinth tonight and it's just crazy what Jennifer has come to. I'll admit that I like the sometimes too thin frame, but even these photos of her are bad. That says a lot.

**cool girl** · September 12th, 2012, 02:19 PM

Wow this is so sad. Hope its for a role.

I don't really buy the whole extreme weight loss "for a role" thing. There's an assumption that it's not an eating disorder, so suddenly it's magically healthy to put that much stress on your system just because you're getting paid in the 7 figures to do so. It's not like growing a beard or coloring your hair, it's not losing or gaining a few pounds, it's real life starving yourself.
