I'm sure she's considered "clinically obsese" on the BMI scale, but most of us are well aware that the BMI has been proven to be complete bunk. Being considered clinically obese on the BMI scale says nothing about one's mobility or health, nor does it say anything about one's attractiveness. Your assumptions that she couldn't "do 2 minutes on a Stairmaster" or "run from a rabid dog" are based on her appearance alone, and no actual knowledge of her mobility. If you've ever seen the Gossip live, as I have, many times, Beth is very mobile on stage.
