Nelly Furtado is definitely a curvy pear shape, with round hips, a plump booty and strong thighs – and this dress totally shows off her enviable waist-hip ratio.

New Interview with Plus Size Model Crystal Renn  | hot models crystal renn celebrity quotes

GlamChic recently did an interview with plus-size beauty Crystal Renn, where they talked about promoting healthy bodies, future projects and style icons. Here’s a part of it:

How would you describe the typical model’s fashion week diet?
Whether or not you have a weight problem during fashion week it’s a mental game that is imposed on these girls and so people in fashion week eat less and they believe they’re natural, however I don’t have to do such things.

We we’re pleased to see that Glamour has recently been embracing plus-size models and applauded British Vogue’s Alexandra Shulman’s case against too skinny models, but are there any other woman’s magazines out there that you think convey a healthy body image to young women?
Let me just tell you something about Glamour, they were the only people who ever called my agency and said this girl has a problem. They are all about health and promoting women’s issues. There is a growing interest in healthy bodies and I have seen that even in Vogue. And the fact that I have done Vogue and been able to do it is a sign of change. I commend them for using me. Glamour, I have to say is one of the leaders of the pack. I remember I was completely ill on that shoot when my disorder got worse and they called my agency and said something is very wrong with her.

Were you angry?
At the time I was really embarrassed because someone had figured me out. They called it and brought it to light. I wasn’t only not only not pleasing my agency but I wasn’t pleasing Glamour. When I became a healthy model like I am now, they were one of the first people to shoot me at this size and that says something. I am happy to be associated with them because there message is the same as mine. They really care about their readers and you can tell.

What’s next for you?
My goals would be to continue speaking about body competence and telling women they don’t have to look just one way. What’s naturally next would be to design a clothing line of some sort because I don’t think my taste is out their for curvier women. I have rock n’ roll taste that should be available for size 12 and above. I would love to go into the beauty industry and be the face of a makeup brand. It’s what women want to see. I love makeup and I find it very cool and it’s an arena I want to experience.

Yup, she lost a bit of weight (especially since the red dress occasion) and it’s not just the dress, since her face, arms and hips all look smaller now. Still fabulously curvy though!

Kim Kardashian Posts Bikini Pictures on Her Blog (Of Course)

Kim Kardashian Posts Bikini Pictures on Her Blog (Of Course) | photoshop job kim kardashian

Kim recently did a bikini shoot for People magazine – Above you can see real Kim (I guess) on the left and Kim in the magazine on the right. No major photoshopping going on, but I see signs of it in the arms, hips, upper thigh and waist areas.

The bikini shots came with the following message:

I used to be really nervous doing bikini shoots but I honestly feel like now I am so much more confident and comfortable in my skin after losing a little weight and most importantly, toning up. Take a look through the People Magazine spread and let me know what you think. I think the photos turned out really well, very natural!

And a little something from her interview with People Magazine:

“After years of insecurities, Kim Kardashian proclaims: I’m proud of my curves!”

“This journey has taught me to be who I am. It doesn’t matter what other people think.”

I’m sad to say it, but this girl sends a lot of opposite messages: she’s proud of her curves, then she tries to prove that she wears size 26/27 in jeans in a video, then she is proud of her curves again, then she has chicken legs and she is very small, she is 117 lbs, no, she is 114, but she was always 120-125, she lost weight, got totally slimmerized in Photoshop in magazines, then sent a “No! to Photoshop” message, toned up, released a fitness video, became the image of a diet pill company, then she is proud of her curves again.

What do you think?
