Closer - full page, 2 photos of Nikki, one with her shopping in London with Chantelle, the other of Nikki in a bikini with her op plasters visible.


NIKKI'S BIZARRE ATTENTION BID
Nikki shows off her skinny body and strange plasters on holiday with Chantelle.

BB's Nikki Grahame looked her thinnest yet during a break in Marbella last week. She flaunted her skeletal body in a baggy bikini and exposed bizarre plasters below her bust, during a girlie holiday with CBB Chantelle.

Onlookers were mystified as to why the 25yr old was sporting the strange looking plasters. The star made the news back in May when she was pictured with similar plasters covering the fresh scars from her boob op the previous month.

On source on last week's trip said, "There didn't seem to be any reason why Nikki had the plasters on other than to attract attention from photographers. It was very odd, but she was loving the attention".

Despite her visibly protruding bones, Nikki, who has suffered from anorexia since the age of 8, last week admitted that she'd like to lose even more weight, saying, "When I'm feeling down I would feel more comfortable if I was a lower weight. That would make me happier within myself".

Now pals of Chantelle, 24, fear she's also verging on the dangerously skinny, and that her recent weight loss may be linked to her close friendship with Nikki.

The pair were inseparable on their trip to Marbella and since Chantelle has lost so much weight of late, friends are worried she may be trying to achieve a figure as skinny as Nikki's.

A pal who was in Marbella revealed, "Chantelle looks a shadow of her former self. She's tiny compared to her old frame, and seems to be imitating everything Nikki does. While they were away, if Nikki didn't have lunch, Chantelle wouldn't eat either.

Chantelle's put her recent weight loss down to hitting the gym 3 times a week, but everyone's worried she's losing too much weight to keep up with Nikki".

While in Marbella, Chantelle and Nikki stayed in the same resort as Jade Goody, and hooked up with pals MSL and Bianca Gascoigne for a series of wild nights out. Nikki was seen clambering onto a table top one night at the infamous Linekers Bar for a sozzled rendition of Arctic Monkey's song I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor.

But the source added that Chantelle, who split with Preston in June after 10mths of marriage, was not having such a good time.

The pal said, "They were in Linekers drinking vodka Red Bulls and they didn't eat a thing. Chantelle was glassy eyed and had a vacant expression - she didn't look in the mood to party. She seemed upset and was in the toilets for over 10mins and looked like she'd been crying her eyes out".


So Chantelle's thinness is all Nikki's fault, nothing to do with the stress of a marriage breakdown then . And Nikki's wearing boob op plasters for attention . FFS.

Nikki will have been told by her doctor to cover her scars in strong sun.Closer mag should have known that as they do interviews all the time with people who have had boob jobs and should do a bit more research into these things before passing judgement.Nikki was enjoying herself on holiday with some friends.Whats their problem?Were they watching her every single minute of the day to see what she ate?I bet she had a few lovely meals chosen from that menu she was studying.I never eat much when its really hot.Chantelles weight loss started long before the holiday and she was friends with Nikki

So according to you, Nikki is so thin because she doesn't like to eat when it's hot?

[supernoodles!]

I love nikki and i agree with you farhad,when your on holiday abroad its sometimes easier to skip lunch and have a big meal in the evening.Especially if you`ve been drinking the night before and dont rise til late then next day.The media should leave nikki alone,shes got an eating disorder,its serious and life threatening,they should be publicisng it like that if you ask me,by telling the world how much nikki has eaten every day will only make her more concious and thats not good.
Anyhow,i hope Nikki doesnt loose any more weight and i wish her good health.Shes a lovely girl if you ask me

Nikki doesn't need to seek any attention as she gets plenty of that anyway. It seems Heat and Closer just want to pick the holiday snaps of Nikki that suit their garbage story. There were loads of nice pics of Nikki they could have used but selected the few unflattering ones.

Chantelle's problems losing a bit of weight are with her marriage breakup and nothing to do with Nikki. It seems they just want to criticise the friendship to sell a story


Isn't it funny how BB8 finished on friday and all the mags have Nikki in them on the tuesday it just shows she is still popular for a story. I hope Richard and Lea are noticing that.

[supernoodles!]

I hope Richard and Lea are noticing that.-why do you say that?

And anyway yeah i agree,there obviously making up a load of bull they`ve pieced together here and there to sell a story

It was just an example, on Closers horrible attempt to belittle her, and blame her for Chantelles weight loss, which is pathetic. How did Nikki seek for attention, her scar hasn't healed, and she was enjoying herself in Holiday, and they seem to have problem with it. Atleast Nikki didn't flaunt her body by stripping off.

That is a disgusting article to accuse Nikki of doing something for publicity when she's doing it for her health and trying to dress stylishly at the same time and as for the crap about Chantelle - she's a grown woman responsible for her own actions - !!

I agree, the Closer Magazine is disgusting the way they rediculed Nikki's illness.

Closer and Heat magazine is pathetic and the "stories" they print are worth less than the paper they're printed on.

This is what Heat Mag wrote.

Heat - This week in pictures: Nikki Shows Off Her Fragile Body. 2 big photos of Nikki, dated 25th Aug, across 2 pages of her in a bikini in Marbella, one showing the plasters on her boob scars and the other saying she has a swollen stomach. Gosh, Nikki Grahame gave us cause for concern when she donned her bikini to soak up the sun in Marbella. The tiny reality tv star, who battled anorexia for most of her childhood, revealed a swollen stomach that suggests she could be suffering from malnutrition. We asked top Harley Street surgeon, Dr Alex Karidis, for his opinion, "her stomach looks very strange. Perhaps she's relaxed her lower stomach, or it could even be bloating from a particular food intolerance". Whatever the reason we hope the former BB HM is making sure she takes care of herself.

Spain.

I'm very surprised Nikki and Chanelle have become friends. Nikki slagged her off quite a bit in her column and Nikki is an Aries and Chanelle is a Scorpio which clash.
