I just saw her in an interview yesterday and she came off as one of the most annoying people I’ve ever seen. It was like every comment she made had to be cool and funny at the same time. Very fake. Ahh, finally found it: [link](http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5849956261444537773&q=ellen+page+interview&total=113&start=10&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=9) It’s so painful to watch someone try to be clever when it’s pretty apparent that there’s not much going on upstairs. ---

[QUOTE=BobT] And this makes her different from most other people in Hollywood? [/QUOTE] No, that’s the problem. She’s not very different from the next tartlette of the month. A lot of people think she walks on water just because she’s super cute and not driving Mercedes’ into crowds. Shows where our standards have gone. ---

[QUOTE=John DiFool] I was under the impression that A was, while not completely flat chested, was tending towards that [/QUOTE] A is small, but definitely not flat-chested. I wouldn’t call AA flat-chested (I know several women who wear one, including an ex, and they all have quite nice breasts), but it’s the closest you’ll see in a readily available bra size. To the OP’s topic…based on the pic given, I’d guess B, although possibly a large A enhanced by the costume and pose. ---

Difference 'tween underbust and over nipple measurements while wearing a well fitting bra: Standard Cup Size 0"-1/2" (1.3 cm): AA 1/2"- 1" (2.6 cm): A 2" (5.1 cm): B 3" (7.6 cm): C 4" (10.2 cm): D 5" (12.7 cm): DD or E 6" (15.2 cm): DDD or F 7" (17.8 cm): G 8" (20.3 cm): H 9" (22.9 cm): I 10" (25.4 cm): J While people are notoriously bad at eyeballing circumference of solids accurately, not to mention “translating” a 2 dimensional picture into 3 dimensions first, looking at that picture, I’d expect her to be \*properly \*fitted in a B or C cup, depending on the cut of the bra. Considering that most women don’t wear the right size bra (we’re almost all underfitted), I would expect that if she actually wears a bra at all, she’s probably \*wearing \*an A or B cup. ---

Also, for the record, 10 year old boys who resemble adult women do nothing whatsoever for me. Just so that we’re clear on _that_. ---

Big A. Nice B with a good bra. Takes one to know one. ---

[QUOTE=The Controvert] [Chickipedia](http://www.chickipedia.com/Ellen_Page) does a little better with her measurements. [/QUOTE] Sweet! Still not a definitive answer - the waist measurement is usually a bit smaller than the ribcage. But, looking at her picture, not very much on her. I’d guesstimate her underbust at about 25", which makes her a C-cup if the smaller bust measurement is correct. (A 30C, for those who care about such details - odd number ribcage adds 5 to determine band size.) But again, almost no one wears their proper size. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if someone looking at her actual bras found a 32A in the bunch. It’d fit, but not properly. ---

A couple years ago, I found a list of about 500 actresses with their bra sizes listed. Apparently it came from wardrobe guides, so technically was supposed to be correct. I remember seeing some surprises on there. We should start a project to update it. ---
