Due to (massive) request, here’s a little post on America’s Next Top Model Winner (Cycle 10), Whitney Thompson. You’re welcome!
Granted, the first red carpet pics are a few moths old, but I figured that you’d all like to comment on her outfit – How do you like the cleavage area, is it revealing too much? How about the boots (their length, more precisely)? I think she’d look fabulous in classic cuts or in Marilyn Monroe-style dresses.
On another note, Whitney had a few intersting things to share about her experience as a “plus-size model” and ANTM:
It’s weird because those of us who are non-models say that a size 10 is not at all plus-sized or even full-figured.
It is because it’s not. It’s below average.Did the girls ever give you crap about being full-figured?
You saw when Stacy Ann was like “Whatever, you’re fat.” And I was like “Uh, perhaps you meant P-H-A-T,” which is totally my personality. There were a few times. I think the girls were a little jealous that they had to diet and they had to do this work to be super skinny, and I was like “Well, I don’t, and my pictures still came out better than yours.” I think it was difficult for them because the plus-sized models usually lose their confidence within the first week or two. I think they were like “What? Well you’re big!”It was refreshing that you didn’t keep hammering that “I’m big, and I’m beautiful” and that on the show you strove to be a model and not so much a role model.
Even though there are disadvantages to being bigger, in the long run the best thing that’s happened to me is that even before everyone knew that I won, I got e-mails from girls and boys from all over the world saying “I’ve dealt with an eating disorder and you’ve had me seek help and I see your confidence and how you do it,” people who were really looking up to me just for my ideas on the show, not even knowing I had won. I think that’s really the best reward I could possibly have.
