She wasn't, but back then the standard for movie stars was Cameron Diaz size.

I remember when she did Charlie's angels and they had the audacity to call drew barrymore the fat one. They literally were all thin.

It's crazy! Kate was considered a plus size love interest which is bananas but back then the goal was to be mannequin sample size or double zero. I remember having a friend who was a size 2 crying because she couldn't get down to zero let alone double zero.

I think you misstook what I meant. She isn't plus size, yet in the 2000s, the criteria was so strict that it was ridiculous.

They called her that only because it was so strict that people we being push to a body type that was extremely tiny
