No way Jennifer Love Hewitt wears a 36-C. Her back isn't that broad.
Not that I agree with this list (I don't) or even with Jennifer Love's size, but seriously, where do some of you guys get your misconceptions on determining bra/cup size? Her "back isn't that broad??" WTF. What the hell does how wide her back is have to do with cup size? I'm a 34C but I'm quite petite and have an average to small frame.
Some of you guys who pretend to understand bra sizes are funny. I need to educate you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
-- Seriously, how wide your back is has EVERYTHING to do with your cup size!!!! I am a trained bar fitter and your bra needs to be REALLY snug around your back - you should only be able to pull it out an inch on the loosest hook. The reason this has something to do with your cup size is that if you go down a back size, you should go UP cup size. i.e I thought I was a 36DD before I started working in lingerie. I quickly realised my bras were WAY too big around my back and thus not giving me the support I needed.
I therefore had to go down 2 back sizes to a 32 and thus up 2 cup sizes to an F. i.e I went from a 36DD to a 32F. So YES, your back size has EVERYTHING to do with your cup size. I am a UK size 10-12, so approx a US 6-8. Now JHL is obviously A LOT smaller than this so there is no way in hell she is a 36 back!!!!
This kind of thing really annoys me! I read an article about a woman who was a 34B had implants and thought this took her up to a 36DD?! How does having implants in your boobs affect your back in ANY WAY?!!! She spent thousands on new boobs and then couldn't be bothered to be properly fitted for a new bra ..... go figure

Has anyone ever tried boobpedia? Its simply the wikipedia for larger breasted celebrities. Some bra sizes are listed while others are not. Give it a try.

Exactly; that's what I tried explaining on the previous page. It's a classic misconception. A while back I saw this cosmetic surgery show where a girl who was 32AA had implants and during the procedure they asked some of her male friends how big they thought she should go. They were all like '36D!' '36E!' I thought: that would require some pretty extreme surgery!
Nice to have someone with your expertise on the forum.

Epic layout fail three posts above.
Seriously, kill this thread already. If there was a trace of accuracy in any of the alleged sizes I could maybe appreciate a pervy appeal in it all, but as 90% of them have just been snatched out of thin air I don't see the point.
