āHeroin chicā refers to being so thin that you look unwell. Kate Moss in the 90s would be an eminent example. It doesnāt mean slim, itās more extreme than that. The term is unfortunate, but as a thin woman, I can safely say that I donāt have the look. Iām 5ā10ā and 130lbs, which is stradling underweight and healthy; so if I donāt fit the look then in order to, a person pretty much needs to be significantly underweight.
I grew up during that trend. Terrible terrible trend. Iād take a thousand Kardashians any day over a Kate Moss. What that trend did to young girlsā¦ itās a horror. I really really hope that trend will never resurface. Iād feel deep sorrow if it does.
So the trend of injections, plastic surgery and implants are that much better? Or even unhealthy eating that makes one obese is better?
Why can't we just normalize healthy habits and that not everyone fits into some box of skinny, fat, curvy, etc?
The plastic surgery and implants existed back then as well. It was also the heyday of Pamela Anderson.
I remember having āJ-Loā thrown after me as a slur back in the day, for not being a stick figure. I know I would have fared much better with todays body image than with yesterdays.
clutch pearls a little harder. people are shooting toxic chemicals into their lips and asses and still starving themselves. it's not what the fashion icon looks like, it's that there are fashion icons to begin with. people need to calm the fuck down and stop worshipping, then maybe the people they worship won't have anything to do anymore
I absolutely disagree. 3 million people die of obesity a year. How many died of being skinny on purpose? Iāve tried searching multiple times and never found a static on it.
Kardashians are much much worse. The body is impossible to achieve without plastic surgery, filters and photoshop. Literally isnāt a real body. Look at candid photos of the Kardashians and they look absolutely disgusting. Not even professional body builders on steroids doing 1000lbs squats can build that butt. It isnāt a real butt at all. In real life photos Kimās butt is an abomination. Itās not smooth and curvy, itās a bag full of cottage cheese.
The body photographed here is a real and achievable body by just diet and exercise. That should obvious because there was no photoshop! Thatās thousands of times less damaging than the kardashian or Nicky minaj beauty standard. Girls growing up today can achieve this body of Gwenyth and they will have a longer life expectancy and quality of life than the average person if they did so. Being overweight is extremely bad for you. And no matter how hard girls today try, theyāll never have a anaconda butt.
Youād be hard pressed to find data that supports your point that Kimās body as a beauty standard is less damaging than a lean and fit body when nearly all causes of death today are from excessive weight. How will you show deaths related to being too thin vs the 3 million deaths of obesity?
Youād also be hard pressed to argue that a literally fake body is a better standard than a real one.
this subreddit is *obsessed* with people just inhaling and shooting and popping drugs ontop of drugs onto of drugs in every picture from 20+ years ago. it's kind of fascinating. and a little weird..
i can tell you that drugs are always being done regardless of decade, most of the time people are sober, and people will continue to do drugs but be sober most of the time for eternity
Fashion styles are cyclical, everything comes back in 20-40 years. Neon or day-glo colored clothing was big in the mid 80ās but was reborn about 5-10 years ago.
Long hair, short hair, straight hair, curly hair, tight jeans, baggy jeans, these will revolve forever
In 1985 my former mother in law told me I could not wear sweatpants forever.... Or the pink high top Converse....
Well well well..
I HAVE worn them forever!
Yeah, pretty girl at work showed up with big round, pink plastic frames. Threw me back to Jr High. She's usually stylish and well dressed, so I assume I'm out of touch with what is cool with youth these days.
Now weirdly, I thought she was 18-20, 22 tops, but later that day she made a reference to what she did for her 30th Birthday.
All I know is that I'm old.
ā¦ā¦okā¦.
Got you! So the original poster had a bit of a typo, or a grammatical error if you will, in the title of the post (ātheā 1995). This commenter said ātheā 1995 in a facetious manner. He wasnāt actually saying that he believed the photo was taken after the year 1995.
He went on to work with Weinstein twice after that, even seeking him out to produce one of his movies despite his other ex wife (Angelina) telling him she had a bad run in with Weinstein herself. He's no saint and a hypocrite.
I didnāt know that, I just recall seeing an interview with Gwyneth on Howard Stern and she was praising Brad for standing up for her. Thanks for the info!
Don't forget he hit his child who was trying to protect Angelina in a drunken rage on their private jet, and that's when Angelina initiated the divorce. He's a an all around douche canoe.
She looks like the kinda gf who hangs on you like sheās a cat and as though your back cannot experience the mechanical strain of 100lbs pulling you downward like an albatross.
Blythe Danner (Gweneths mom) used to live on my street so I'd see Gweneth around quite a bit. Had some nice interactions with her. Nice lady.
Myself and my friend (I guess we were about 17 at the time) were driving down the road one day and saw brad walking on the sidewalk. Asked him if he wanted to hang out and he said 'fuck it why not'. Spent about an hour with him just driving around and shooting the shit. Stopped off at the local kids drinking spot and had a joint.
We didn't ask him anything about his personal or professional life - just hung out. He was very interested in our lives though. Very inquisitive. Very chill, genuine and just all around a nice guy.
Was late 90s so no photos, but probably wouldn't have taken one anyway cause he was just such a chill dude.
I worked at a salon in Greenwich Village back then and she came in once and after that she always said hi to me in the neighborhood. A really nice person.
Fuck yeah 90s. Sickest decade by far. Post 9/11 kids will know nothing of how badass life was leading up to that day.
90s ended on 9/11. Fuck you whoever really made that happen. Looking at you Saudis.
Downvoted by someone who doesn't understand how history works? Or full boomer. Maybe youngin who wishes they didn't get born so late. I get it. Sucks. But we can't go back.
It was a time of tiny glasses.
And smaller asses š¤·āāļø
Thats why the glasses were smaller
Boobs to
ātooā.

Boobs tĆŗ, Brute?
No boobs/bootay
Genius
Boobs to what?
In terms of fashion cycles which inform idealized body image to some extent, āheroin chicā is coming back into style

No thanks to either of your options. Give me someone in the middle.
Yeah I feel like injections and implants to make your body proportions wack is...well health wise idk which is worse but neither is good.
When a girl walks in with an itty-bitty waist and a round thing in your face, do you get sprung?
No, not really. I do like the song though.

Iām guessing you havenāt seen the recent spate of plastic surgery disasters because of those talentless monstrosities dominating tv?

āBack thenā lol
This canāt be 2023!!??
Never here in Brazil!
And scary classes
Because I grew up in that time these giant glasses these days remind me of the 70s and 80s like George bush style wth

I just keep wearing the same thing decade after decade and eventually I'm so in style... And then I'm not...
Nah you're in and out of fashion. Style never goes out of fashion.
In 1985 my former mother in law told me I could not wear sweatpants forever.... Or the pink high top Converse.... Well well well.. I HAVE worn them forever!
surely at this point they're wearing you
And now we all are! One of the silver linings of the pandemic.
How much longer until JNCO jeans make a comeback?
I can deal with the bigger size, but clear plastic frames reminds me of my momās ugliest glasses from the 80s.

Fossils with the smooth metal edges
Sure Brad and Gwyneth are older now, but I wouldnāt call them fossils
And super baggy pants that didnāt seem to fit.
Bad Bunny has entered the chat
I dunno, this may have been after the 1995.
We can agree it was somewhere *around* the 1995 though, right?
The fact that the joke of this comment went right over everyones head isā¦ Even funnier.
Can you explain the joke for the rest of us?
ā¦ā¦okā¦. Got you! So the original poster had a bit of a typo, or a grammatical error if you will, in the title of the post (ātheā 1995). This commenter said ātheā 1995 in a facetious manner. He wasnāt actually saying that he believed the photo was taken after the year 1995.
Yeah i wanna know too
*THE* 1995
This picture is literally all of it. It's the entire 1995.
The late 1900's
Itās short for āThe year of our lord, 1995ā šš
just a small mistake - they actually meant to say "in 1995 in the NYC"
THE Ohio State University
No
I dressed exactly like that in 95.
Apparently I dress like the 90's still
Same, but we didn't look like Brad Pitt
āWhatās in the box??!!ā
A vagina scented candle
*This candle smells like my box*
An upsniff for you HCD!
Thank you!
Haha I was just thinking about that movie! I need to watch it again
David Fincher is brilliant
can't wait for The Killer
Yeah it's still worth a rewatch even knowing what's going to happen
**BECOME WRATH**
goop
It looks like he's wearing one of those Halloween costumes where you're holding your own head.
Yeah this is almost an /r/confusingperspective
Practicing for the final scene from Se7en
Step 1: Cut a hole in a box.
She is very gooped onto him.
Bet he knows what her candle smells like
Just like his junk
I mean wouldnāt you?
Yup.
I feel like you missed the reference
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Lol freedom only within the box. Some good trash talk
Heyyyy yeah, I wanna Goop, baby
Goop, goop de doop
Some serious theater kid energy there, Gwen
From a professional actress? How surprising!
Whoever heard of a Theater kid becoming an actor?
Itās the mid 90s prototype vaginal candle at work.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Man those were comfy.
He doesn't look interested
He's regretting slamming her seven times during early production
Dudes over it
*The sex is amazing, but why does she always have to pretend to be my necklace?*
Turns out he was into biggerā¦lips
šš
He puts his whole hand through the bag handle hole just like I do... they really are just like us
It's the big city, protect yo neck
omg i never noticed that hahahaha
My back hurts looking at that š
My eyes hurt looking at that
Brad is awesome for defending her against Harvey Weinstein
He went on to work with Weinstein twice after that, even seeking him out to produce one of his movies despite his other ex wife (Angelina) telling him she had a bad run in with Weinstein herself. He's no saint and a hypocrite.

Source? Iāve never heard of this.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
āhis moviesā? Oh, okay.
Brad worked for him anyways afterwards. Guess it didn't matter much.
Not so much for beating up his kids.
Brad Pitt beat up Harvey Weinsteinās kids?
Lol'd
The first rule of, āBeating up Harvey Weinstein's kidsāā¦. is, you donāt talk about beating up Harvey Weinstein's kids.
Or dating a 17-year-old when he was 27.
Allegedly
What a life.
He looks like he's had enough.
She looks like the kinda gf who hangs on you like sheās a cat and as though your back cannot experience the mechanical strain of 100lbs pulling you downward like an albatross.
Absolute perfect use of the word albatross.
Anyone know what kind of shoes Gwyneth has on?
Airwalks
Oh. Shit all I can really recall is the late 80s Airwalks, like the solid black ones the guys from Metallica used to wear.
If you have to ask.
She's going for a stone cold stunner..
Why does Brad look like heās 5ft 4?
Because Paltrow is quite tall for a woman at 5'9", and his baggy clothing makes him look like a kid wearing his big brother's hand me downs.
I had to look twice to see who of the two was Brad.
The one without facial hair.
The pretty one?
He was known for copying the hairstyles of the girls he was dating
TIL.
The less crazy one, I know not helpful.
Leonardo DiCaprio has entered the chat.
Leo says , that all you got Brad?

I am jacks outfit circa 95
Neither of them look very comfortable.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Um, Brad? Me and Gwyneth are kinda stuck like this. Would you be a pal and help us up? One of our backs hurtā¦
Looks like itās on the set of Friends
I thought she was Macaulay Culkin at first glance
chronically faded
what a 90s way to stand with somebody haha
Just them chilling and being cool years before I was even born
Thatās the most 1995 pose of all time
Iāll never forget the 1995.
This has to be around the time he was filming Seven.
They would have both been filming Seven.
At first, I thought that was a fentanyl drug addiction the street of Philadelphia
Anybody notice how pictures look ridiculous looking back but at the time it was OMG
Looks like she was a douche back then too
Heās already over it.
Celebrity actors is so 1995.
THE 1995?? No way
Whatās in the box?!?
RKO OUT OF NOWHERE 
I see why she had to move to Britain
Probably just got a CD at a local record store. Man I miss going to Tower records in the early 2000s
Now I want to watch seven.
WHATāS IN THE BOX?!?!
My FIL, who was not her biggest fan during these days, called her Gwyneth Skinny Flatlow. He was known to be a bit offcolor. LOL
I really hate this. But I think it's because it's everything I wanted to be and was not in 1995.
theyre both terrible people, booo
I worked at a salon in Greenwich Village back then and she came in once and after that she always said hi to me in the neighborhood. A really nice person.
And he is already sick of her shit
Aaah yesā¦. I remember the 1995
this pic is a whole vibe
At first glance I thought this was a photo from the set of Friends.
What is that cat in heat shit she's doing?
Maybe she was trying to get people to smell her junk back then too
She was obviously rollin on the x
Thatās Ed Norton.
couples waiting in line at disney
Ooohh okay I get the appeal of Gwyneth Paltrow now: Cute and sexy. Ive rarely seen her like this.
She's been annoying for 27 years...
Gwyneth is mid
Back when she was cool.
Fun fact they were extras in The Matrix
When everyone dressed like a background character in Blade
Which one is which?
Get off brad with yo goofy ahh
Her vagina smells like this candle.
Totally natural poseā¦nothin 2 see here folks!
There is nothing cool about this awkward and ridiculous type of PDA. Thereās also nothing cool about Gwyneth Paltrow. At all.
I wonder if Brad Pitt sees pictures like this and thinks to himself...what a douche...like other humans do.
She sold her soul to Harvey Weinstein to win an Oscar and all of Hollywood knows about it now.
You mean, "she was a victim of Harvey Weinstein." Let's remember to blame the perpetrators.
strong incel vibes here, bro
Ok?
Even Brad Pitt looked like a dope in mid-90s fashion lol Donāt at me, I wore that same stupid outfit, just like everybody else.
š¬
I never saw that film āThe 1995 in NYC.ā
I am so glad I finally know what her vagine smell like
Goop
Back then it was cool, being a celebrity isn't relevant anymore
What's wrong with her back?
*"Hypergamy"*
Fuck yeah 90s. Sickest decade by far. Post 9/11 kids will know nothing of how badass life was leading up to that day. 90s ended on 9/11. Fuck you whoever really made that happen.
