[NationalEnquirer] What British actress is so desperate to stay skinny that her pals AND her personal trainer are concerned? The already rail-thin single mom, who’s been working out like a maniac at her West Hollywood gym, says she’ll do anything to revive her film career!

Minnie Driver? She battled weight issues as a young actress…
Yep. 1st person i thought of.
Kate Beckinsdale
She’s married and is the star of the “Underworld” franchise which has a new part coming out this month.
She also has Contraband coming out this month…
kate beckinsale?
Shes married.
Damn. First person I thought of, but can’t be her then.
She’s a divorced mom. I think that this is her.
I don’t know..saw her in a bikini on TMZ last night and she looked PERFECT. Frigging PERFECT. I wish could put that shot they had on my fridge for incentive to work out!
Nah, her career isn’t dead. New Underworld movie coming out this month.
She’s not divorced – she’s still married to Len Wiseman (Underworld director).
She also has two films out this month – Underworld and Contraband.
Liz Hurley?
Bing, bing, bing! I think you’ve got it. She’s obsessed with her weight, as is evident when looking back at her infamous quote; “I’d kill myself if I was as fat as Marilyn Monroe.” Can’t remember reading much else about her than her diet, weight and Hugh Grant relationship.
No – sorry. Liz is shacked up with Aussie bogan Shane warne. Google them for a laugh. They are huge here in aus and uk and india as he is a cricketer.
Haha! I will.
Nope. She’s been on Gossip Girl quite a lot & she doesn’t look at all “Rail-thin”.
Kate Winslet? I had a few others in mind too, but I then saw the person was a single mom.
rail-thin?
maybe i’m being naive but she’s always seemed pretty confident in her body. My guess is Liz Hurley, she hasn’t been up to much in the past few years
Nevermind the confidence in her GREAT body, but does she really have a flailing movie career? She has never looked better or been more popular.
Sienna Miller
mum?
Elizabeth Hurley
I tale back my first guess, Kate beckinsdale
Kate Beckinsale
Elizabeth Hurley?
That picture really makes me sad.
its a photoshopped picture of Lindsay Lohan. But I’d hate to think they’re women out there that actually look like this v_v
Her sister is on her way.
It’s quite disturbing and very sad indeed. Also, Lindsay wasn’t far from looking like this at her worst. I’m very glad I don’t live in Hollywood, the ‘common’ world is tough enough as it is, that’s for sure.
British actress single mom to me sounds like Minnie Driver, but I would not put her in the rail-thin category. Yes she is slim and good looking, but I think they are looking more for a Kiera Knightly skin-and-bone rail-thin, I guess. Since Kiera does not children she’s out.
Joely Richardson could be considered this rail-thin. She has a daughter, however she is divorced…would she still count as single mom? I guess so.
I’d say she is mostly known for her TV roles in recent years so could be eager to revive her film career, but she has just been in Anonymous (2011) as well as in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, so her film career should be revived, no? she might still be a good guess….
Juniper, I passed Minne Driver on an NY sidewalk once about 10 years ago and it blew my mind how incredibly thin she was. I know she doesn’t look it on screen, but in real life a lot of actresses must be teeny tiny. She was wispy as hell, and it takes a lot for me to notice that!
I agree with the Joely Richardson guess! She was always scary skinny.
Yeah, I’m on aboard with Joely too… Check out this photo of a scary skinny Richardson:

Almost looks like the lead in photo
That photo is painful. That poor woman needs some professional help.
Catherine Zeta-Jones
How is she a single mom?
and she’s not british
She’s welsh…about as British as you can get
She’s Welsh.
she is british.. Wales is in Britain.
I can confirm that CZJ IS British. Despite her accent.
Also we pronounce her name ‘Zee-ta’ Jones – if anyone is interested. I know you’re not.
RedPeggy: Is there any other way to pronounce her name?
That’s what I thought Stackhouse but I think I’ve heard it said as “Zayda”, as well.
I think the assumption may have been that people rhyme it with the Greek ‘beta’ – ‘bay-tah’ or ‘zay-tah’.
I forgot about the single part when I guessed her, but she is British.
I agree with the Kate Beckensale guesses now that I re-read it
Wait is Kate single?
Kate is married.
Stackhouse: My American friends pronounce it ‘Zay-ta’.
Minnie Driver?
Happy New Year, BG!
Elizabeth Hurley? Totally random guess. Technically she’s a single mom but I think she’s either engaged or has a serious boyfriend.
(I hope that picture is photoshopped and NOT real)
Minnie Driver is the only one that comes to mind.
It is, I’ve seen the un-shopped version. But sadly, there are women who look like this.
minnie driver
Kate Beckinsale?
whoops, didn’t see “single”
Joely Richardson? British and a single mother and has been looking skinnier than usual (at least to me). She does have a few movies coming out in 2012, though, but she’s done only TV since the end of 2007.
I would guess Kate Beckinsale but she doesn’t really count as a single mom, I suppose, since she’s married.
I was thinking Liz Hurley for some reason, as she seems desperate lately, being on Gossip Girl and all, but I don’t think she lives in LA. I’m pretty sure she’s in London.
Elizabeth Hurley. She had a brief stint on Gossip Girl, but that’s TV. She’s also recently divorced and has made headlines in the past for wanting to stay thin by going on gummi bear diets.
Minnie Driver
Minnie Driver comes to mind
Kate Beckinsale…First post!
Hi Ms! Love, Ace
Sienna Miller
Elizabeth Hurley
Minnie driver?
Hurley. Kate has a career, and seems like a fairly sane woman. Hurley is a has-been and always seemsd desperate.
First post!!!
Kate Winslet
Liz Hurley has just got married to one of the most famous Australian sportsmen of all time, Shane Warne. He was a champaion cricketer – so good they have a bronze statue of him outside one of the biggest fields in the country. They seem happy. He’s no angel, having cheated on his first wife, but I do hope they are happy together. They are building a joint family with their children. I don’t think it is her… she is living in Australia, seemingly very happy, with him. Good luck to them, I say.
They aren’t yet married but they are engaged and living in Australia/the UK
Liz Hurley is not married to Shane Warne
She has just got engaged to Shane Warne, not married!
Anna Friel
Liz Hurley, she was looking crazy thin and has revamped the new hubby in her life and she’s forced him to slim down and get botox and nips and tucks–and he’s lightened his hair..he looks crazy, nothing like he looked before–manly, he
looks “Hollywood”.
I can see her wanting a come-back, new power couple, if she can get some new projects.
Liz Hurley. She’s definitely been more vain since Hugh Grant broke her heart.
Kate beckensdale….. Can i just say though, lovely pro anna piccie for this blind BG…. Seriously thoughtful! :/ urgh!
I’m not sure how it is a pro ana picture. It made me draw my breath – and I’ve been battling eating disorders for ten years. She looks neither happy nor healthy – nor sexy.
Kate Winslet
Tilda swinton
Tilda is Scottish and has an in the bag Oscar nod for We Need to Talk about Kevin. Kate Winslet hasn’t ever been described as thin.
I like the Tilda guess, she looking totally emaciated. I’m sure like is the wrong word.
Tilda is Scottish and has an in the bag Oscar nod for We Need to Talk about Kevin. Kate Winslet hasn’t ever been described as thin.
I don’t think it’s Tilda either, but if she’s Scottish, she IS British.
Yes Tilda hasn’t done any movies in awhile although she was hot for a second ( The Beach is my favorite Movie-Holla!!!) but she lands roles based on her androgyny thus keeping rail thin like a boy.
Btw who on earth is the model in the pic? Shame on anyone who knows her for not involuntary commuting her for being a danger to herself, shes beautiful, illness aside, but will be dead in a year
Except for “We Need to Talk About Kevin” which she is widely expected to win the Oscar for. IMDB is your friend, friend. And she’s not rail thin. Just tall and thin as always. BTW, that’s a photoshopped photo of Lindsay Lohan.
Oh, and BTW, Tilda is Scottish.
Scottish = British. Scotland is in Great Britain.
Serious and honest question: if Scots aren’t Brits, how would you define Britain? I’m English-born, so it’s familiar to me, but I wondered what you perceive Britain to be as someone who doesn’t know it as well.
Minnie Driver. She has nothing in any stage of production according to IMBD.
Minnie Driver
Keira Knightly?
Liz Hurley?
I’d call her more of a model than an actress but Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was in Transformers 3. Here’s a link to an article about her being “shockingly thin.”
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2081539/Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley-parades-shrinking-frame-teeny-bikini.html
All I can say for certain is that those sunglasses do not flatter her nose.
It’s probably Joely Richardson and the picture might be a clue because her sister, the late Natasha Richardson was in the Parent Trap remake with Lindsay.
Wow, great catch,DontKnowforSure! I think that makes perfect sense as a clue for being Joely Richardson. Nice catch, indeed!
