Miranda Kerr

When shots of Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr hit the internet last week from a recent swimwear shoot she did for Grazia Australia, some people were shocked to see what appeared to be a weight loss from the already-thin model’s frame. However, in a statement to the magazine, the 26-year-old girlfriend of Orlando Bloom insisted that she is healthy and is even coming out with a book on nutrition later this year.

"The exaggerated poses for the shoot have made me appear thinner than normal from behind, but I am the same weight and measurements I have maintained for more than three years," she said to Grazia Australia.

"I am conscious of not only maintaining but promoting a healthy lifestyle and I wouldn’t be able to sustain the hectic nature of my modeling commitments if I wasn’t 100 per cent committed to feeding my body the food, vitamins and minerals it needs."

Kerr also revealed that she eats a 'mostly' vegetarian diet and does yoga every day in order to keep up with her grueling schedule.

"I work six days a week, 15 hours a day – and that’s not a joke," she said.

The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model went on to say that she even has her own body insecurities, but tries to take a level-headed approach to dealing with them.

"As women, we can’t compare ourselves because we’re each beautiful in our own unique way... I really don’t want girls to think they have to look like me. I want them to nurture themselves and really be the best they can be." (Daily Mail)

I don't get why photographers think models who are way too thin for their own good even looks good in these pictures.

There are definitely ways for her to stand that don't make her look THAT thin. This picture is just too much..

She has definitely lost weight since I first saw her in the VS catalog. I think she got so skinny because she did runway show's at one of the fashion weeks, Was it Paris? Anyways Orlando Bloom seems to have this affect on the women he dates. Remember Kate Bosworth circa Orlando?
