Armchair Casting Director: '90210'

Tags: , News

Only 90210 could issue the following casting alert and not end it with LOL. The deets…

Lila: A student at West Beverly who is both stylish and sarcastic, Lila is “chubby” and “heavier than our girls on the show.” Recurring potential.

It’s so wrong I think it might be right.

Got casting tips? Post ‘em below!

    Wow…so I guess if you don’t look anorexic, you’re now considered “chubby.” If she wasn’t already awesome on Heroes, I’d suggest maybe Hayden Panettiere? She’s gorgeous!

  • ggny

    at Steph…You consider Hayden “Chubby”… Wtf has this world come to?

    • Steph

      I don’t think Hayden is chubby at all, just not as tiny as the other actresses on the show. She’s talented, and in my opinion beautiful.

    • Javabooknut

      Her point was that it wouldn’t take much to be “chubby”and “heavier than the other girls” The other girls are unhealthy.

  • Erin

    There are no chubby actresses in Hollywood.. Unless by chubby then mean a size 6…

    • wd

      LOL, actually chubby for LA standards is size 2 and above. 6 might be obese.

  • lluis

    i don’t know the degree of “chubbyness” they’re looking for, but, Nikki Blonsky?

  • MomC

    Mae Whitman. Though not chubby, she def is larger than the skinny minnies on this show. Plus, she has such a winsome face and does sarcasm really well.

  • Brody

    Can Jordin Sparks act… or at least “act” as well as the nauseating Shenae Grimes? Because she’s the right age and certainly beautiful enough to fit in with the cast. (In fact, the rest of them — with the possible exception of the gorgeous Jessica Lowndes — would look pretty awful next to Jordin.)

  • Jessie

    I love the suggestion of Mae Whitman! She’s definitely not chubby, but doesn’t look anorexic like the cast of 90210. Loved her in Arrested Development

  • Nick

    So by heavier than our other girls they mean 95 pounds as opposed to 85?

  • carl burger

    any of George Lucas’s kids

  • XOXO

    umm Chubby…i think all the girls on that show is chubby if u ask me..they need to lose a few pounds or so….i think that one girl looks like an elephant! or the other chubby one that looks like an overweight zebra..or maybe its that other chubby one im confusing with that looks like that old man from up…hmmm……i dont know..

    this is the wrong kind of message the cw is sending out..casting chubby? PUHLEASE…….im so over this faux90210 and im watching ugly betty!

  • Rishi

    I was laughing when I saw the “heavier than our girls on the show” quote. That pretty much leaves every other female age appropriate actor on the face of the planet as a potential fit for the part – especially when you consider they don’t specify race or any other specific skill such as ability to skate.

  • Autumn

    This is so freakin’ sad. No one can really come up with ANYBODY that isn’t scarily thin. Even I can only think of Kelly Osbourne and Raven Symone.

  • Jana

    I guess everyone with more than 45 kg would do :)

  • Heather

    I can’t really think of anyone. Raven? I think she’s too old.

  • Derek

    Man this is funny, all you fat chicks on here bashing the skinny girls! Theres a reason we guys like them skinny, deal with it or get in the gym and quit stuffing your faces!!!
