Zoe Saldana’s Allure feature has sparked a great deal of controversy because they proclaim exactly how much the 5’7″ actress weighs right on the cover. The magazine, which features Zoe completely in the buff inside, says she weighs 115 pounds.

Should the magazine have printed her weight on the cover?
