KARA reveals "On days when we wear revealing clothes, we don't drink even water"

[unreal.livejournal.com]

KARA recently spoke out on their remarkable willpower. The girls guested at KBS 2FM "Hong Jin Kyung's 2 O'clock" on January 3rd, where they talked about their dieting habits.

Han Seungyeon started off by confessing, "We really love eating." As soon as they were asked if there was ever a time when they couldn't eat even if they wanted to, the girls immediately brought up the topic of revealing clothes.

According to them, while they were promoting their hit song "Mister", which required them to be dressed in crop tops for their performances, they would stay away from even water from the very moment they woke up.

KARA said, "We eat as soon as we're done performing. Once we get off the stage we gulp down water, and eat cake and sushi in the dressing room. We put everything we want in a line and eat it all."

DJ Hong Jinkyung then asked, "Aren't you bothered by the people around?", to which the girls replied, "Well... it's delicious, so we don't care," making everyone burst into laughter.

Meanwhile, leader Gyuri was absent due to her schedule, with the remaining four girls participating in the broadcast.

That's so unhealthy. Those girls must be SO dehydrated, especially as you need water in order to do things that make you sweat, etc... :\

yeah, it's sad that companies are not ashamed their idols say this out loud.

I used to do this when I cheered competetively...but it had more to do with my not wanting to throw up when I came off the matt than the fact that my entire torso was out (...plus a tiny skirt that had a slit up to my vagina...oh my youth...)

:( you need energy from food though

[teacupbeast.livejournal.com]

That is so unhealthy, jfc.

IKR!!
Water is the worst, and don't even get me started on air..
UGH~

[erbalurbal.livejournal.com]

maybe that's why seungyeon is always falling and busting her ass

[feel-my-mind.livejournal.com]

Doesn't surprise me. Its really not different than American celebs red carpet diets (like some of them only eat liquid foods for a WEEK before and than nothing the day of.) Crazy and stupid, but not surprising.

But you can wear spanx on the red carpet...

i wish idols would stop saying things like this in public

[aniloratka.livejournal.com]

this is just stupid, pff

[anconeous.livejournal.com]

Not surprised at all. I won't even be surprised if all those guys who go strip off their shirts on stage only drink water that day or something just so their abs' cuts would be more pronounce.

[jasmineakaiumi.livejournal.com]

I'd say this is very likely. They do a ton of sit ups and arm workouts as well right before shows and MV filmings to keep them more pronounced.

So you starve, dehydrate yourself and then binge...not cute *laughter* promos in those revealing clothes last a few weeks.
They do anything to keep the image and then want sympathy when they fall out.
Girls have nothing else to talk about but missing their parents and not eating on these shows.

[rawrfia.livejournal.com]

IA with that last sentence.

[gunsandsmoke.livejournal.com]

they all got a helluva lot skinnier going to japan though. probs mostly naturally, due to the crazy work schedule of promoting in two countries simultaneously but i mean their appetite has probably gotten nonexistent just by not having time to eat in the first place.

Have fun with your early deaths. Too bad lots of their 5 year old fans will read this and think in their heads, "I can do it too!"

[babydollnana.livejournal.com]

good point :(

[dislike.livejournal.com]

i wish omona had trigger warnings

[dalpaengi.livejournal.com]

me too...ugh

[hellicoptajuuce.livejournal.com]

so the host questions them pigging out afterwards instead of questioning them NOT eating smh

[hellafun.livejournal.com]

priorities, they have it

[modestgoddess79.livejournal.com]

[kakkoi-x.livejournal.com]

lol

[cordyceps.livejournal.com]

New word for starvation: willpower.

Good to know.

[ababobaby.livejournal.com]

idgi. water helps when you're on a diet ._.

[jasmineakaiumi.livejournal.com]

From what I understand you bloat initially when drinking it then flush it all out? But I could be wrong.

[hellafun.livejournal.com]

the first thing i look for when i wake up is water, idk how they manage to resist drinking until after the performance

[jessiboo24.livejournal.com]

So freaking unhealthy, I can't. Korean companies stay treating their artists like shit.

[ssehun.livejournal.com]

Ah reminds me of that article where Adriana Lima revealed her ~diet~ and training regimen before the VSFS :(( It's kinda sad that they're candid about it; kinda how it's normal or how they're used to it D:

[hellodee16.livejournal.com]

wow, if that's what some idols do
then no wonder they faint sometimes. :/

[kimishim.livejournal.com]

Lost a little respect for them tbh :/

[geniebsmart.livejournal.com]

*sighs*

[weerainbow.livejournal.com]
