“Wow. Apparently obesity zealot MeMe Roth has taken a page from Lindsay Lohan’s publicity playbook: After publicly embarrassing yourself, instead of showing remorse and making amends, do something even more offensive. Last Wednesday the publicist-turned-activist had to be physically restrained from vandalizing a YMCA snack table — an instance of all-too-authentic food fascism we were happy to report on. But it turns out we only knew half of the story. On that same day, Roth appeared on the Fox News Channel to complain about American Idol winner Jordin Sparks. Her beef: Sparks isn’t stick-figure thin and, therefore, she’s a bad example to young girls. Now, we agree that Sparks isn’t built like a supermodel, but most Idol viewers think that’s a good thing.” (05/31/07)
