Blake Lively Feels Like a Tranny
April 14, 2009 in Blake Lively by Versus
On Her Low Self Esteem: “I feel like a tranny a lot of the time. I don’t know, I’m … large? They put me in six-inch heels, and I tower over every man. I’ve got this long hair and lots of clothes and makeup on. I just feel really big a lot of the time, and I’m surrounded by a lot of tiny people. I feel like a man sometimes.”
Blake Lively in Allure Magazine, May 2009
how tall is she? i’ve never thought of her as freakishly tall
shes so hot.. I love tall beauties : )
thank god she said this! that’s exactly how i feel so much of the time!!! blake you’re gorgeous, know that!!!
and @ may: she’s about 5′10″
Her eyes are a pretty colour. I know what she means in a way, I’m not very tall but I always feel weird when I’m around much shouter people.
she’s ugly…just my opinion
agree!
and would think that too if I looked like her!
=O watta bitch!!
hehe… My pleasure!
I’m not that tall (5′7) but i totally get what she’s saying. My friends are all shorter than me (think 5 to 5′4) and I love wearing heals. when we walk side by side it looks comical. But I’ve gotten used to it. and she is gorgeous and an amazing actress, atleast in my opinion
Hey, I’m 5′7″ too and I think that’s tall for a girl. Well, above average height anyway, since I know most people consider tall 5′9″ or above. And I have the same situation, all of my friends are between 5′ and 5′4″ and it feels weird when I am in heels around them. It doesn’t help that the are all a size 4 or below and I am an 8.
I think Blake is pretty, but I hate the makeup on the Allure cover.
“I think Blake is pretty, but I hate the makeup on the Allure cover.”
Agreed, the cover looks awful, but generally she is very pretty.
i am almost 6ft, but i never feel like a transy. I feel sexy and powerful. Unlike transies, I have boobs. real boobs. Blake is such a hottie, I hope she knows it!
Well she looks like one on that cover.
i love her! and the fact that she talks about her occasional self-esteem issues makes her even hotter to me.
because hot = hot, but hot+nice=hotter
i don’t think having low self esteem makes you nice or hot. i think women are so critical of themselves that when one doesn’t voice her insecurities, she gets branded as self-righteous. (just a thought)
thats not what i said
i said that TALKING about the problems you might have with yourself (and i think that every woman has one/some) is good, because it makes her seem nice and honest.
-> a beautiful woman that opens up about her insecurities seems more attractive to me!
yeah, again, i don’t think its attractive to voice insecurities/ self esteem issues. its not about being honest, because everyone has things they don’t like about their bodies, its about having respect for yourself. why put yourself down in front of everyone?
i dont think that shes putting herself down in front of everyone
but okay , we just have different opinions 
I can totally relate to her. I’m 6 feet tall and feel exactly the same. You feel more pressured to be thin so you look more like a model than a giant whereas shorter women can look really cute with a little flab.
I think she’s gorgeous and sounds like a nice person.
i dont get whats so great about her. shes not a good actress and yes, she does look like a tranny (and im not talking about the tall part)!
I know what she means. For years I towered over my short friends and the boys (still do, but now I love it). She needs to throw her shoulders back and embrace it. Her posture’s terrible and she has great legs, thanks to her height! Being statuesque rocks, height gives you presence when you enter a room.
just because she’s tall doesn’t mean she should feel like a tranny.
No offense to Blake, but her face does give off that “trannyish look”. Her nose i kind of prominent. I don’t know it’s just something about her face. Maybe it’s the mole.
And that heavy make-up on the magazine cover does give off that tranny look.
She’s still hot!
nose is* kind of prominent
she has a ridiculous amount of makeup on on that cover.
she seems to be a really nice and open-minded person-not only a pretty face . now really , how many movie stars talk about what they don’t like about themselves? I personally like her alot . she’s like…totally hot. I would love to have her long slim legs (I can’t describe myself as being short , but still , I’m not as tall as she is) . anyways , she’s a babe ! GO BLAKE<3
Megan Fox called – she wants her schtick back. Personally, if I hear one more celebrity complain that they are/used to be nerdy,ugly,etc., I am going to vomit.
Pfft. I`m having the same problem. Believe it or not, I just turned 13 last saturday and I’m 5′5 and a half. And I thought it was Kelly Clarkson on the page. I think because of the make-up.
im only 5′5 and i do get the feeling that im too tall sometimes i dont even wear high heels, my shoes closet is full of flats
