Lauren Conrad - Get The Skinny!

Mary Kate Olsen, Nicole Richie, Rachael Zoe and now...Lauren Conrad. It appears that the reality star is following suit with the shoulder and ribs diet!

Oh LC, you have it all wrong. Always petite with her girl next door appeal, she was a different kind of pretty that might have inspired girls to NOT be so thin, but I suppose her desire to remain in the spotlight drove her to cave to the demand to look like the rest of young Hollywood.

Where are these girls parents? Isn't there anyone in their lives that can put the brakes on their poor behavior? Partying ways? Drug abuse? Eating disorders?

I miss the more "grounded" LC who lived in Laguna, went to college, and hoped Stephen would want to date her -- that was relateable. Now...she is like all the rest.

PS - I do LOVE the dress though!!!
