Penn Badgley: '90210' Stars Should 'Eat a Cheeseburger'
"Gossip Girl" star Penn Badgley wants the skinny stars of "90210" to plump up -- and he knows just how. "I hope they eat a double cheeseburger or something," he told PopEater.com, as reported by Us Weekly.
Starlets Jessica Stroup, 21, and Shenae Grimes, 18, have come under fire for their waiflike frames -- and with Stroup reportedly at 100 pounds and Grimes at a measly 90, castmates are reportedly worried.
"They just don't eat, and the hours of that show are going to get to them if they don't get healthy," a source told Us Weekly.
As for Badgley's own "Gossip Girl" cast? He thinks it's "healthy" that the girls -- Leighton Meester and Blake Lively -- "aren't bone-thin."
