Blake Lively joins countless celebs who claim they eat garbage and don’t work out

We all know that stars have access to stylists, personal trainers, private gyms and personal chefs, but "Gossip Girl" star Blake Lively claims she has no use for them. She's said before that she dresses herself, but now Lively says she puts no time or energy into looking good. "I do panic before I have to wear a really skimpy outfit, but I don't have enough willpower," says Lively in UK Glamour. "I had to do a scene in a bra and shorts for the first time in two years. On the day of the shoot, I ate a pork burrito, chips and coke. Afterwards, I thought, 'I probably shouldn't have done that.' But whatever."

Do you really expect us to believe that? You knew you were stripping down, and still stuffed your face? Yeah right. To make matters worse, Lively claims she also does not exercise. "I have never worked out, but I know you feel better when you do, so I am planning on getting a trainer.” On-screen Serena van der Woodsen is a high school girl, but off-screen Blake Lively is a young actress who relies strongly on her looks. If she isn't hitting the gym yet and solely relying on a speedy metabolism and good genes, well, consider us jealous. But then again, she did once say that she was at her healthiest after dropping "serious" weight to play a bulimic beauty queen...

Either way, can we get past these "I'm a gorgeous celebrity, but I just get out of bed and look like this with no effort" stories? We don't believe them and we don't wanna hear it anymore.

Do you think celebrities lie and say they eat bad foods and don't work out, but actually bust their butts at the gym? [People]

    Well time will only catch up with her... whether it's in looks or overall health.

    Well, I don't work out, either, and I'm 5'7" and 113 lbs. It's all natural. I do lead an active lifestyle, but I don't formally hit the gym. Some people just have it like that, the way some people can get a tan and I can't. I eat what I want, and I definitely have my junk food cravings (which I generally give in to), but I also eat a pretty balanced diet. It's all in a person's build, and I have a small frame and fast metabolism. I was made fun of for my entire adolescence, and now I've got the body that people strive for. Karma's a bi*ch, but I try not to be too smug (not always successfully, I admit).

    Correction: I have the body that people with insecurities who aren't happy in their own skin strive for. Plenty of people are bigger than me and look great and know it. Didn't mean to lump everyone into the same category. Sorry! There's that smugness! *blush*

    see the thing is people who are like that end up like Kirstie Alley did or like one of my relatives.... looking great with no effort for years and never over a certain weight... then WHAM one year their metabolisim changes and they go from 110 pounds to 175 pounds in just a couple months and they have no way t handle it...

    Some people really are trim and don't have to count calories or hit the treadmill...I see no reason these celebs would secretly diet and workout; there would be no shame in doing either.

    Looking at this picture I can believe she doesn't work out. She's thin but there's no build or any definition. She looks like she's never lifted anything. I do agree that it will eventually catch up to her and I say people like me who do have to work out and eat healthy to have that body are much much luckier. I know what I can eat and what I cant and when my metabolism slows I will know how to deal with it. My sister is a thin bean pole who can put down anything without gaining a pound and she's a stay at home who barely leaves the house.

    She's also super young. If you have a problem with it, then you are just jealous. I'm the same way. I don't diet, and I do not have an exercise routine, and yet I manage to look fit. And I have had two children. When people get jealous of me, it annoys me. You have no idea what other troubles a person goes through in life. It really doesn't matter how you look on the outside and you shouldn't be jealous of the people who do look great.
