Just stopping by

1. Uh-oh. Apparently Demi Moore got butthurt over ONTD discussing just how ridiculous the photoshop was on her W Magazine cover.

In other words, EPIC POST IS EPIC.

2. But speaking of modeling, check out all the latest spreads Super-Plus-Size-Model Crystal Renn has done lately.

She is one gorgeous woman, goddamn.

3. In case you missed it (and happen to live in the US), check out Stephen Colbert subbing for Jay-Z while rapping about the suburbs with Alicia Keys in her performance of her song "New York State Of Mind" on the show:



HAPPY SIXTH CANDLE!

Now back to German.

Uh, this might be a totally unpopular opinion, but...

Crystal Renn's stunning, and I do want to see more size diversity in fashion and pop culture. But I'm always really dismayed to see such an either/or mentality like this - right now there are four comments above mine implying that skinny girls are jerks or sick for promoting an unrealistic image of beauty. There are a lot of unhealthy girls in fashion, but there are also a lot of healthy, thin, gorgeous women in fashion, too.

Obviously there's room for improvement. We need more Crystal Renns. But if every model looked like her, then you're still promoting a mentality where some skinny little girl is still looking at that gorgeous size-twelve woman and saying, "I don't look anything like that, which means I'm ugly."
