Banned-ad model: ABC is big bust
NYPOST ^

Posted on 04/23/2010 7:57:14 AM PDT by jakerobins

This is the face and bod that launched a plus-sized bra-haha.

Brooklyn model Ashley Graham said she was shocked to learn ABC couldn’t handle the beautiful bust she flaunted in a Lane Bryant ad the network said was too hot for TV.

“I was very surprised,” the size-16 stunner told The Post yesterday.

“The first thing I thought of was Victoria’s Secret commercials, and how they’re just as racy, if not more racy, than Lane Bryant.

“[The models are] just a lot smaller than what I am,” said the Nebraska native, a 38D.

“[ABC] can’t handle bigger on TV, bigger boobs on a normal-sized woman on TV.”

Nothing wrong with the model or the ad. Nothing compared to the obscenity they call news.

I’d have to see the lower half for final judgment.

Finally...a real woman in a commercial! I personally didn’t see anything wrong with that commercial. If you can show 2 1/2 men at 6:30 in the evening then this commercial should be acceptable.

Shame on ABC for banning the ad. She’s a lovely woman. Hope to see more of her in the future.

I know I don’t speak for all the ladies on FR, but let’s just say I’m sure many of us resemble this woman than we do Victoria Secret models.

“couldn’t handle it?” Hmmm. Interesting choice of words.

Check out the video on the site. It’s hard to believe she is a size 16...she is smoking!

Good grief. I’m a 38D, but never thought of myself as over-endowed Liberals, ugh; they are basically calling her fat. And we can’t have that now can we?

One of the least guilty that have ever appeared on FR.

God Bless America.
