Celebrities stroll the red carpets of some of the world’s most prestigious events. What’s their secret to looking so fantastic? Spanx. These figure-flattering undergarments used to be associated primarily with bigger individuals but, recently, many super thin, super hot celebs have admitted to wearing Spanx to keep everything in.
Props to these stars who are spreading the message that every woman (even super skinny celebs) need a little help looking perfect:

Dannii Minogue appears to have a flawless figure but even she admits that she needs a little help smoothing things out on the red carpet. She says “My secret? Spanx! I always wear them on the red carpet – they make my butt into the shape it would be if I was really good and went to the gym and had a personal trainer!”
