Surely This Tum Is Flat?

Some people are never satisfied.

She has the body of a goddess, but she's decided that her stomach isn't quite flat enough.

Who's the latest celeb to get critical over their curves?

Jennifer Lopez, would you believe.

But don't worry, the actress and singer isn't completely delusional.

Commenting on her famous bod, she said, "I'm very lucky: I've got good genes, and I've been athletic my whole life.

"I'm ahead of the game - I'm more in shape than I would be if I didn't do what I did.

"But it's tough, and I do have issues. My body is not what it used to be; my stomach is not flat. People are like, 'Your stomach is flat!' But I'm like, 'It used to be really flat, like it was concave.'"

It's usually J.Lo's bottom that get's all the attention, but even with this change of focus, she's still keeping things in perspective. 

Jen's face - not bad either

"I love all my body," she went on. "I thank God for my body. It hasn't betrayed me." 

She also had a word or two to say about the cult of 'skinny'.

"I was never raised to be, like, pencil-thin. You know, we saw it in magazines, and everybody's like, 'Oh, that's the ideal.'

"But the women around me - my mother and my aunts and the people in our neighbourhood - they were all fuller. They were normal women and they were beautiful. So I didn't ever feel like I had to be anything but that, which was myself."

We hope that the Jenny From The Block singer will continue to keep it real for curvy girls throughout the land.

And, in the interests of scientific research, we have a look through Jen's tum's own personal photo gallery to see what on earth she's on about...
