A young Chinese woman who weighs only 25 kilograms (55 lbs) has been getting a lot of attention after showcasing her shockingly thin body online and claiming she wants to be even skinnier.
The young woman who goes by ‘Baby Tingzi’ (婷子宝宝) is 160 cm tall but weighs only about 25 kg and apparently aims to lose even more weight. She has more than 42,000 fans on Douyin, China’s version of TikTok, most of whom constantly express concern about her health. Baby Tingzi always brushes off such concerns, claiming that she prefers to be super skinny and adding that her skeleton-like silhouette has no negative impact on her life. The up-and-coming social media influencer, who reportedly hails from Guangzhou, China’s Guangdong Province, constantly posts clips of herself in skimpy outfits to show off her slender physique and apparently doesn’t care about criticism.
In most of her videos, Baby Tinzi dances in front of the camera and poses in revealing outfits, showing off her skinny legs and arms, but she also weighs herself regularly to update her fans on her weight loss.
After Baby Tinzi went viral on Chinese social media, many commented that she most likely suffered from anorexia and was in need of urgent medical help, and some have even dubbed her a walking or dancing skeleton.
“It is hard to imagine an adult weighing 25 kilograms,” one person wrote.
“I would not dare move too much for fear of breaking my bones,” someone else added.
“Oh my God, I am really afraid that you will die while I am looking at my phone,” another person commented.
