There is often some confusion regarding the physical appearance of those with EDS and those with Marfan's Syndrome. Marfan's Syndrome patients are tall and thin with long arms, legs, fingers and toes. These characteristics are often confused with EDS. Many people believe that EDS is a "skinny person's disease." The people with this mentality and beliefs are mistaken though. EDS does not discriminate in the least. Things like age, height, and weight make no difference. EDS patients come in all shapes and sizes.
These are some of the faces of EDS;

Those are the faces of people who have officially been diagnosed or who came out publicly and stated that they had it. Below are some of the famous individuals who are widely suspected of having EDS. While they either weren't diagnosed or never came out publicly and disclosed it there have been signs, and things said by them which has lead to these speculations. If you look closely at the pictures below you can see a few of them are "bendy."
