Jodie Foster reveals startlingly thin frame

Actress Jodie Foster is not known to be a slavish follower of fashion.

But it appears the Hollywood star has fallen victim to the trend for ultra-thin figures, as the actress revealed her startling weight loss during an appearance in Queensland, Australia.

The Oscar-winning actress was seen at the premiere for new family film Nims Island, and she exposed her decidedly thin-looking frame, and a worryingly bony breastplate, in a low-cut green dress.

The pictures also revealed her seriously veiny hands, which could mean the actress has succumbed to the over-training associated with celebrities such as Madonna and Angelina Jolie.
