Many people are sensitive about their weight, and celebrities in the spotlight are even more touchy about the subject. Most stay fit, too fit, while others sometimes let themselves go to pot. We all know it's not a good thing to ask a woman when she is due, especially if she has only put on a few extra pounds. However, these we couldn't help but notice when these famous women appeared to be preggers and the rumors began to circulate.

#1 Jessica Simpson
By now everyone is pretty aware that Jessica Simpson struggles with her weight. The singer and actress "exploded" onto the scene with an hourglass figure that most girls would kill for. The blonde bombshell was the envy of men and women alike. It wasn't long before she began to gain weight, however, and was back in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. Everyone was speculating that she was pregnant. The Daisy Duke actress was gaining weight but not because she was expecting. She just blossomed because she had quit touring and performing. She did go on to get married and have children though.
#2 Khloe Kardashian
Kim's little sister has long dealt with critics concerning her weight. These unjustified savages have attacked her because she didn't have the slender build like her famous sis. She lost a lot of weight after the harsh social media remarks and when she hooked up with Lamar Odom and it appeared as though Khloe may be pregnant on multiple occasions due to her weight. But she wasn't. After started a fitness program that has left her ripped, she says "No matter what size, shape, colorhaters going to hate."

#3 Lady Gaga
It's hard to believe that the ripped superstar had gained enough weight to appear pregnant, but she did. She is so fun of energy and frenetic when she's performing, but there was a brief period where she sort of put on a load of extra weight. For her tiny frame, it seemed like more than it was, and she looked like she was expecting. It turned out she just gained some extra pounds and proceeded to lose them when she went back on tour. She's doing just fine these days, but she has a lot of chutzpah for wearing that leather bikini on stage.
#4 Kelly Osbourne
Let's face it, the one-time reality star and wannabe singer has always been on the hefty side. She's been through the ringer growing up in front of the cameras and with a father who is an addict. She even dealt with substance and alcohol abuse issues of her own, and in addition, Kelly has dealt with weight issues that made her look pregnant at times. She charged ahead and lost a bundle of weight and cleaned up her act when she could no longer tolerate the ridicule. A healthier Kelly Osbourne is now enjoying success on television and seems to have her stuff together.

#5 Tyra Banks
The Top Model is one of those women who is always beautiful, no matter what size her dress may be at the time. She has the looks and beauty that are classic. However, she is also one of those women who has struggled a whole lot with her swings in weight. Back in the 2000's, Tyra went through various weight fluctuations that led people to believe she was pregnant. They also went all-out at dogging the former Victoria's Secret angel. Just because you put on weight doesn't mean you're with child, and Tyra wasn't. Today she is healthy and as usual, beautiful.

#6 Christina Aguilera
She's a whole lot of woman is a little package, and during the period when her singing voice was all sorts of crazy, she was too. She even gained a little extra tonnage, and in her small body, it looked even worse. She blames her weight gain on her desire to eat hamburgers and fries and the forbidden foods that she enjoys. She doesn't make apologies for any weight gain, she almost appears as if she could be pregnant at times when she adds 15 pounds as quickly as an oncoming storm passes by in the Deep South. She does always lose it when she goes on tour or is getting ready to perform, which isn't healthy either.

#7 America Ferrera
Portraying the lead in "Ugly Betty" brought her much acclaim and success, but it also brought her some ugliness. Critics beat her down because of her stocky frame, and continually asked if she was pregnant. She got fat shamed on a regular basis. In reality, she was just a healthy young actress who was trying to work and make a name for herself and look normal. But Hollywood normal and societal normal are two very different things. Ferrera took it in stride and rose above it. However, the noise did appear to get to her as she dramatically lost weight as her series came to a close and beyond. She now has a figure that most of the Hollywood elite could only dream of, all because of her hard work and dedication to prove her critics wrong.

#8 Kelly Clarkson
In 2002, she won the singing contest, American Idol, and became an instant star. She was young, thin, and looked like the girl next door, who just happened to have a spectacular voice. Multiple successful albums and a number of hit singles later, it seemed as though nothing could stop Clarkson. But many haters in the world attacked Clarkson for her weight. As soon as she stopped her first tow tours, it was evident that she had issues struggling with her weight, and the rumor mill began to speculate that she was pregnant. After she got tired of hearing about it, she went crazy and lost way too much weight. People were worried about her up and down dieting and before long, she simply just stopped worrying about it herself and let herself stop trying to be Olsen twin thin. She recently married and doesn't worry about her weight at all.

#9 Lena Dunham
Never slender or slim, Dunham has been consistently overweight in her appearance. The superstar writer, producer, creator, and star of HBOs "Girls" has never appeared thin or petite, but she certainly never looked pregnant. But that's what her critics said when she blossomed to a staggering 60 pounds over her normal weight. Even as news broke that Dunham suffers from obsessive compulsive disorder and recently had to have an ovarian cyst removed from her body, no more than two news articles appeared in the tabloids that she was expecting a baby. The story is clearly false but Dunham's weight is something she should keep an eye on for her own health.
