When Angelina Jolie flaunted her svelte right leg in a bizarre appearance at the Oscars last weekend everyone was buzzing about her sexy pose, but Dr. Drew Pinsky would rather talk about her incredibly thin body.
Appearing on The View Friday morning, Dr. Drew said he thinks the 36-year-old star is “malnourished.”
“I'm tired of keeping quiet about this stuff,” Dr. Drew told the ladies on the panel. “When I was quiet about prescription drug use and then everybody starts dying, now I feel an obligation to speak up, she's malnourished. She has the stigmata of malnutrition," he said.
The respected doctor discussed what he believes Angelina’s motivation for staying so skinny is.
“Us Weekly reported she was doing it to make a statement about the kids in Africa that she was working with that didn't have a chance to eat," he said, but he didn’t buy that excuse.
“I just see malnutrition for some reason there, and we shouldn't look at that as an ideal of beauty. She's a beautiful woman, but she needs to be better nourished."
