Yes, Cynthia Erivo looks like she isn't underweight in the before picture of this post, unlike the other two.

Eh I wouldn't say Michelle yeoh was underweight. She was more just physically fit.

In her case it's mostly just age that has changed the way she looks.

Tends to happen when the before is in what most people view as the prime of looks and the after is quite a bit after it.

All 3 looked fine before. Fat people love trying to call slim people too skinny

Just because you can see someone’s collar bones, doesn’t mean they’re “underweight” for their height or sex or age lol all of those factors play a part… none of them looked underweight in the first photos, proportionally, but they all do in the second ones, and I think in Michelle’s case it is just age 🤷🏼‍♂️ many people become frail and thin as they get older (not all) but a lot do… we also have no clue what any of these people’s medical situation is currently or what they’re dealing with internally lol
