Since when is 15 the new 30? She looks like she has been passed around more times than a bong at a Dead concert.

Looks like she has a life-threatening case of the skinny.

Good thing she's ok.

oh good god, why are celebrities always getting such life threating illnesses like exhaustion. It's ridiculous. She's sick for a couple of days, and it's life threatening! I guess they love drama, hence the profession they are in I guess

Many claim exhaustion but it's really an emotional break down like Mariah Carey or low ticket sales like they're saying about Janet Jackson.

As for Miss Momsen, hers is real. Remember Jim Henson?

I hope this young lady (whoever the Hell she is) makes a full recovery. You on the other hand in the immortal words of Dick Cheney can go.....
