Shania on HELLO! Canada cover (Summer 2009)

Butters · Guru

Ummmm....why are they using a pic that is like 15 years old??!

And that pic is bad because it shows how extremely short she is.

I think they're using that pic of Shania on the boat because they are alluding to the fact that Shania has been 'looking to the past' for current inspiration - and that's an older pic....happier times.
Also, 'Hello Magazine' is scraping the bottom of the barrel for lack of creativity.
..and I wouldn't cal Shania 'extremely short' - she's petite and gorgeous. Extremely short would be that gymnast who won 'Dancing With The Stars'
I would rather have Shania's body than most bikini supermodels'

Yeah, I guess I can see why they are using that pic.

And yeah, she is not "extremely" short, but she is short and has short legs and Shania herself avoids showing them because she is not happy with them. And it is why her videos and clothes try to make her look taller.

She is not even close to 5'4. I would put her at 5'2. Which is pretty short.

There are some supermodels that have awesome bodies and some that have horrible ones.

Shania has a good body, but it is not perfect. Even Shania herself wishes that she was taller.

I disagree 100%. I think 99% of supermodel bodies are ugly and flat and boney.
The only supermodel body that I liked in the last 20 years was Cindy Crawford, she had curves and still looks great.
No body is perfect so it is absurd even talking about anyone having a perfect body.
As far as Shania's height,she is below average for woman but she packs on a great body on her petite frame.
And I would take her body over any supermodel today.

Butters · Guru

There are plenty of supermodels that have awesome bodies. It is the runway models that tend not to have any curves or breasts.

Cindy Crawford, Tyra Banks, Marissa Miller, Claudia Schifer, Elle Macpherson are some of the many that have drop dead gorgeous bodies. Boobs, butts, curves and beautiful faces. Not all are just skin and bones.

Open up any Sports Illustrated mag and there are plenty of curves and beautiful women that are not too skinny.

Butters · Guru

And I never said that any woman's body was perfect. That IS my point. Usually when a person points out that Shania does not have the perfect body, all her mad fans get sooooooooooo insanely crazy.

you forgot Gisele Bundchen

Tanya · Guru

Why there have been no scans for so long? :(

True. She has an awesome body! It is ridiculous to say that every tall girl has a bad body or every short girl has a bad body. There are good and bad things about being tall and being short. Shania loves her curves but she HATES her short legs. She has said so herself. NoBODY is perfect.

PurplePeopleEater · Guru

Short girls generally have short legs.

Tonto · Guru

Paula Abdul is short, Janet Jackson, Dolly Parton, Barbara Mandrell and Reba McEntire. Great things come in small packages. They are all very talented and very beautiful. Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. I think Shania has great legs. Just perfect. Nothing wrong with short legs as long as they look great and they do. Just my thoughts.
Warmest regards as always,
Tonto

Reba is not short. She is about 5'6'; a lot taller than Shania.

And I think that Shania's legs are fine. They are not her best feature (and she knows that) and she uses her best features (small waist, curves) to her advantage.

Same thing with Toni Braxton; she always showed her midriff because it made her appear taller. Shania does it for the same reason.
