KATE DILLON
Kate Dillon was billed to be the next Cindy Crawford. She graced prominent magazines, but unfortunately at a price. She literally starved herself to stay a size 6 on a 5 ft 10" frame. But the she decided to take charge and decided to forgo being thin and settle to being healthy instead. And now she's one of the most prominent plus-size model.
She came to Michigan during last year's (I think) Body Awareness week to talk about healthy body image. Too bad I missed it, but it's pretty cool to see someone embracing her curves so candidly. I'm only recently coming to terms with my own curves, haha. :) . Sure, I do my best to stay healthy, but I don't want to be beating myself up anymore whenever I look in the mirror and not see a thin person staring back. Being voluptuous worked for Marilyn Monroe, and even J-Lo has a big butt, and here's another beautiful woman, Kate Dillon, who's not your average size 6. So as long as I'm healthy and happy, then everything is good. So what if a guy isn't interested in me because I'm big? Then he's not worth knowing about in the first place, is he?
*Sigh*.. dealing with body image issues here.....scandalous...
