Gene’s Plus Size Model fuck scale: 11
from www.nbcwashington.com – A buxom blonde who showed off her shapely curves in a bare-all photoshoot for a glossy magazine has caused quite a stir.
Lizzi Miller, 20, flashes her pearly whites as she poses nearly-nude in a red thong for the September issue of “Glamour” magazine, revealing some stretch marks, thick thighs and a roll of stomach fat.
“I used to be so self-conscious in a bikini because my stomach wasn’t perfectly defined,” she said. “But everyone has different body shapes. And it’s not all about physical.”
The shoot ignited an outpouring of support for the 5-foot-11 beauty, who wears between a size 12 and 14, and moved to New York City from San Jose three years ago to pursue her dream of modeling, according to the magazine.
from www.inquisitr.com: Glamour readers are fangirling like crazy over “plus size” model Lizzi Miller.
Miller turned heads in the latest issue because of the simple fact that she resembles most readers of the fashion mag. Miller, 20, is a size 12-14 and not even technically “plus sized,” but her curvy shape is still alien to the airbrushed pages even of slightly progressive Glamour magazine.
Grateful readers flooded Glamour with emails, prompting a blog post about “the woman on p. 194″:
The emails were filled with such joy–joy at seeing a woman’s body with all the curves and quirks and rolls found in nature. (Raising a question: With all the six-packs out there, do you even know what a normal belly looks like anymore–other than the one you see in the mirror?)
And of the attention, Lizzi is grateful, too. She says:
“When I read them I got teary-eyed!” she says. “I’ve been that girl, flipping through magazines trying to find just one person who looked a little bit like me. And when I didn’t find it I would start to think there’s something wrong with the way that I looked. When J. Lo and Beyoncé came out and were making curves sexy, I started to accept myself more. It’s funny, but just seeing them look and feel sexy enabled me to do the same.”
So what do you think? Does Lizzi Miller look fantastic or is this lowering standards for stick thinness industrywide?
