I report on recent measurements of two scaling relations of spheroids in the distant universe: the Fundamental Plane, and the relation between lensing velocity dispersion and stellar velocity dispersion. The joint analysis of the two scaling relations indicates that the most massive (above 10^11.5 solar masses) spheroids are consistent with no evolution since z~1 both in terms of star formation and internal structure. Furthermore their total mass density profile is on average well described by an isothermal sphere with no evidence for redshift evolution. At smaller masses the picture appears to be substantially different, as indicated by evidence for substantial recent star formation (as much as 20-40% of stellar mass formed since z~1), and...
