The ladies of 90210 took a lunch break from filming the show yesterday, and the big news is that they were spotted with some food. Since the show's onset, there has been a lot of speculation about the stars' stick-thin frames, and it doesn't help that Shenae Grimes was spotted this week loading up on cigarettes. When asked about the situation, Shenae simply said that the girls "shake it off" when they hear about the buzz — like Penn Badgley commenting that the girls need to a eat double cheeseburger. While their show may still serve as a bad example for teenage girls to follow, it's somewhat reassuring to see the girls loading up on fruit between takes.

Naomi looks like a fine weight but Shenae and Jessica need to "eat" more then fruit.
1CW execs: ''Okay, Mrs.Grimes, time for damage control. Here's a big plate of fruits. Make sure to be photographed eating them''.
2I don't watch the show, but I sure wish for only healthiness in these girls. And mid-day meal boxes and empty silverware don't prove much!!!
3I'm with you tiabia.
4Don't go crazy on that watermelon. It's jam packed FULL of calories...
5Oh, shocker...the studio's PR department had the anorexic star take a perp walk with her "lunch". Right.
6loads of bs...
7I love this show. Im sorry, should we care what they eat and how much of it. I must be out of the loop because I dont care.
8PR move is right!! Oh I love it! It made me laugh...oh man...
9puh-leez. If they dont care about their health then why should I?
10i guess they have to shove food in her mouth after those pictures hit with all those cigarettes
11shenae is so cheeky! i love it
12LMAO ....Shenae....fyi the food is in the containers and the trays...air on fork is NOT food. What a transparent PR move..
13These girls are like 19...I was that skinny at 19 and there was nothing wrong with me. Remember Mischa Barton in The OC? Everyone thought she was too skinny and now she is a normal size and everyone calls her fat. It's a catch 22, and since when are we criticizing people for eating fruit?
14PR department must be working overtime.
15I don't watch the show, but wow that girl in the black dress is really tiny. Hopefully they are naturally that small and not hurting themselves.
I remember the big fuss over Ally McBeal and how Courtney Thorne-Smith said that she was pressured to be unhealthly thin.
16These girls are still YOUNNGG and while i understand peoples concerns for their weight i honestly think its just their metabolism is still really high for the most part and will be until their are at least in their mid twenties
I have a body very similar to that of Annalynne's and I'm very healthy, i exercise and eat A LOT!!! (seriously I love food) but i still have a high metabolism it's not my fault I'm skinny and healthy.. i blame my parents
17Shenae has an eating problem....when she was on Degrassi there was a time when she was scary thin...then she gained some weight and looked more normal...and as soon as she got the 90210 part...its freaky thin again..
18I think she has an eating disorder as well... It just doesn't seem normal to me... stress whatever, she seems unhappy.
19Wow food! But then again, holding food and getting photographed with it is not the same as eating.
Haha, eat up!
20I would like to know why she is with that fork in her mouth... She is eating NOTHING, so WHY? This girl is so ridiculous...
21Jessica Stroup (Silver) is not naturally skinny like that. Just watch True Blood (the pilot). She looks healthy there.
And it's kinda ridiculous they showing up with food after everything people said just so people can see.
22that box is empty and her lunch is a slice of watermelon.
23Juicylemon, I was thinking the same thing. Except I think its Miss or Ms. Grimes, not Mrs. Grimes
24look, this show is really really awful. why did they pick it up for the whole season or whatever it was... it should stop now. i saw a commercial on the cw saying that it was their "number 1" rated show. that has to be bullsh*t. one tree hill is making a surprising comeback. and its a hell of a alot more interesting then 90210. the only reason it got ANY rating at al was because of shannon dohrety and jennie farth, without them this would have been a complete and total flop. the cw should just lead with gossip girl and oth as their top shows. get rid of the new 90210 crap. its sucks, so stop kidding yourself.
25The ciggie shopping spree was PR, so was this fruit frenzy! It's horrible what Hollywood does to girls.
26To the people saying that the girls are this skinny because they are young, fine, but why were they so much heavier before they started the show? Reverse aging? I don't get it...
It's one thing when a character on a show does things you would question in her personal life (like Vanessa Hudgens, age appropriate, but you don't want your kid to know about it), but when the problems are so apparent, even just watching the show, I think it sends the wrong message. I don't think girls with obvious eating disorders should be on tv.
27California-Yeah, I thought about that but there's no edit.
28I want Shenae's dress though but yeah, I agree. esp. Silver/Stroup. Her arms are Angelina Jolie stick thin..
29she just keeps shoving a food-less fork in her mouth
30that's not eating
Ick
31OMG the fork in the mouth comments. Ok, first I hate that we are studying these pictures so intenslly but Im in defense of her. Couldnt she had taken a bite and then the camrea took the picture of her after eating whatever was on the fork? These girls are drop dead gorgeous, we dont know everything about them, why isnt it possible that they eat and work out??
32every time a show comes out and the girls are skinny there's talk and i think that the only thing that they can do to keep their sanity is to shake it off. i really don't think that they are intentionally starving themselves - but then again we're not there with them, so it's not fair to speculate. i don't feel like they would be setting a bad example, it's just a sign of the times that this is what we're choosing to focus on right now.
33I don't think they look that skinny here. I'm 24 and i'm way skinnier then that. i eat everything in sight. i just don't gain any weight. i thought that would change as i got older but it didn't. maybe thats the case with these girls. hopefully they aren't being forced to stay thin. but i wouldn't put it past hollywood.
34The controversy should be over what a sucky show it is! Hell if I was one of the girls I would be embarrassed that my career was already over. 90210 was good the first 3 years it was on and then it sucked and to think they even brought it back?
35she has a fork en very single picture!!she seems so dumb!
36I'm not a registered dietician or anything, but as far as I know, watermelon and plastic forks ain't gonna do a whole lot for weight gain!!
37Joking aside, I hope these girls see that starving themselves is unhealthy and appearance really doesn't matter in the scheme of things, I wish good health for them!
I don't understand why 90210 doesn't take this as an opportunity to write an anorexia bit into the story line...hello, let's tackle some real world issues here...Isn't Jennie Garth playing a counselor? This would be a great time, very visible to address eating disorders, since these aren't the only girls in the world that have them
38Perfect photo op, if you are not actually eating it, at least bring a plate of ribs or something...
39I don't understand why people have to make comments saying that they don't eat. Just because you don't see them eating doesn't mean they are not eating. Everyone should be watching what they eat, overeating (and eating junk) is unhealthy. They are also young and probably have high metabolism. I am 28 years old and still very thin, I work out a lot and eat a lot... I'm very healthy. I think it is good for young girls to see this and realize that they should also be working out and eating properly. It's healthy living. And to those who say they are starving themselves, they are completely wrong. Everyone's bodies are different and these girls were blessed with high metabolism...to those who are making anorexic comments... this is a disease you are accusing these girls of having, very strong accusations which I am sure are coming from jealousy.
40Could this be more staged? What next? Having them guest on a cookery show?
41Also:
To be honest, most actresses get really skinny on the first season of a show. If this show lasts a year wait til then and see - they'll gain.
Weren't the Gossip Girls leaner when they started?
It can go either way, if you compare the first few eps of shows like Friends or Charmed the first season everyone's usually thinner. If it's really popular then things calm down the next year. And if it gets to a third year and is still popular everyone that gained weight in S2 starts working out again and gets if not skinner than they were in S1, more toned. If they actually get THINNER a year from now then it's probably a pre-existing problem/issue, and cause for concern.
The actresses who usually get smaller over a show's run are the ones that start of relatively normal and who didn't drop a load of weight to get the part. Just consider Mishca Barton and Rachel Bilson from The OC: Barton is now comparatively heavier now while Bilson is thinner.
Could go either way but considering that I don't think these girls dropped it the slower and steadier way, I think they'll gain later. So it might all blow over in the long run - depends on how the show is received and how they deal with public scrutiny.

You know these girls personally to say who's completely wrong in all this?
43You can be skinny and healthy. But don't assume that just because you see that someone is skinny that she's healthy or lead an healthy life. doesn't automatically means being healthy. Yes it can be be natural, but in the case of JKessica Stroup, who has not been

46You can be skinny and healthy. But don't assume that just because you see that someone is skinny that she's healthy or lead an healthy life. You mean that Shenae Grimes is example of healthiness? You probably didn't saw the pics of her smoking. Pop, mentioned that again in her post.
As for being naturally thin, Jessica Stroup wasn't sporting this figure in her recent appearances in films (Prom night).
This is such a staged photo op. AnnaLynne McCord looks like she is skinnier too, she probably got upset that she wasn't being told that she was "too skinny" and wanted the same attention as the other girls.
47I am sorry, but between women, Eating issues and weight seems to spread, it is a cultural phenomenon. I can guarentee one of these women started it and the "standard" was raised....
48honestly, i have seen the show, and they might look a bit too thin, but i won't say that they have an eating disorder, or that they simply don't eat. up until the last couple of years, i was a 92 lb, with a height of 5'3". skinny, and i ate more then any of my friends, probably even healthier then most of them. some people are just built that way, i know i am. i really hope that all this problems aren't something more serious then the probable stress they might be felling. and if it is, i do wish them support, by there friends and family, they really don't need us to critize them.
