Tori Spelling out and about in Brentwood (9/14)

Tori Spelling is firing back at Star over the magazine's claims that she's anorexic and weighs just 98 pounds. No, wait, that article was from early April. Let's try this again: Tori Spelling is firing back at Star over the magazine's claims that she's anorexic and weighs just 95 pounds. No, wait, that article was from late April. Fuck. Let's try this one last time: Tori Spelling is firing back at Star over the magazine's claims that she weighs just 95 pounds and recently collapsed because of her low weight. Yep, that's the right one. Tori tweeted:

Star Mag...LIES! Literally not 1 factual thing in entire article. And, come 2 my house&weigh me Star! I'm 107lbs. if you care about FACTS?!?

According to IMDB and a bunch of other sources, Tori is 5'6". Plugging those numbers into the Body Mass Index (BMI) calculator on the National Institutes of Health website gives us a BMI of 17.3, which classifies Tori as "underweight." According to Wikipedia:

The most common cause of a person being underweight is primarily malnutrition caused by the unavailability of adequate food, which can run as high as 50% in parts of sub-Saharan Africa and south Asia. The effects of primary malnutrition may be amplified by disease; even easily treatable diseases such as diarrhea may lead to death. In the presence of adequate food resources, being underweight can sometimes be the result of mental or physical disease.

I don't know what this means exactly but I've always wanted to write a story about Tori Spelling where the words "malnutrition" and "sub-Saharan Africa" were used.

NOTE: Interestingly, I plugged K-Fed's numbers into the BMI calculator and my computer laughed. My computer has never laughed before. I didn't even know they could do that.
