Awards season is an interesting time, not only because it decides the fate of many nominated actors’ careers over the following years, but because it allows us to see what the Hollywood glitterati are wearing or looking like over the course of the winter months. In the case of Glee star Lea Michele, she’s clearly been shedding pounds over the last year. But last night at the SAG Awards, she was looking particularly…bobble headed.
It seems pretty clear that Michele’s been on a pretty drastic diet lately. For instance, compare the above picture with how she looked with Glee castmate Chris Colfer at Outfest in the summer of 2009:
Losing a little baby fat is one thing. When your head starts looking like it is too big for your body, you’re pretty clearly in the eating disorder danger zone. And Lea is definitely heading into bad territory. We were worried about her crash dieting when she started intensely sobbing throughout The Golden Globes in January.
But last night, she looked visibly uncomfortable before the ceremony began. And for one last comparison, check out how she looked next to True Grit’s Hallee Steinfeld, who (even for a Hollywood starlet) looks to be a very healthy weight:
