The last Grey’s actor up for examination (har, har) is Ellen Pompeo, the queen of lucky genes and desperate attempts to gain weight. Hate her yet?

Awhile back Ellen claimed she was “paying a trainer $1,000 a week to torture me with weights so I can get bigger.” All things considered—especially things like this picture and this one too—she might want to ask for a refund.

But despite her tendency to maintain the skinny status quo, Ellen loves to lament her inability to gain weight. In addition to the weight lifting, she’s said that she eats 3,000 calories a day just to stay above the three-digit mark. (At 5’7” that means her BMI is 16—several points underweight.) And she jokes, “All these [anorexia] reports make me so paranoid. I’m going to become an overeater.”

Now I don’t doubt for a second that she’s naturally skinny—but do you think she really wants to gain weight?
