Over the past month, the tabloids have been wondering aloud yet again if Tori Spelling is “scary skinny”. At first I defended her, as I usually do. But then I saw some other photos of her, and yes, she is definitely at the “scary skinny” phase. But not according to Tori’s mom Candy! Candy thinks we’re all haters or something. Candy’s defense? Tori has always been scary skin. Something like that:
Candy Spelling, 64, defended jabs about daughter Tori, 36, despite the Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood star’s increasingly shrinking size.
“Tori has always been thin,” she told Hot Stuff at the Broadway opening of Promises, Promises in NYC April 25. “This morning, I was lounging around and saw [Tori’s 1996 TV movie] Deadly Pursuit. She was thin there.”
Candy also disputes tabloid Star’s recent report that she can’t stand her daughter’s husband of four years, Dean McDermott, 43, and offered Tori $10 million to leave him.
“Our lawyers wrote very strong letters,” says Candy. “It’s not true.”

Well, I’m glad that’s taken care of. I’m of the generation that grew up on 90210, and while I can say for sure that Tori has always been slender – excepting those hideous implants – she hasn’t always been this thin. This is something that’s been happening over the past year, and denial isn’t helping.
Meanwhile, reports indicate that Tori is working on a deal with ABC for her own daytime talk show. According to the LAT (via Access Hollywood): “The network is said to be looking to create a “Will & Grace” style atmosphere between Tori and a potential co-host, who has not yet been selected.” I hate to say this, but… that’s honestly not the worst idea. I’m sure it will crash and burn, of course, but I could see Tori and some random, bitchy gay dude being absolutely hilarious together.
