She's pretty, but needs to lose 30lbs.

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.”

I don't have no diamond, and I don't have no gold
But I've got a lot of love to satisfy your soul
Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need
Some folk built like this, some folk built like that
But the way I'm built, you shouldn't call me fat
Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need
Some folk rip and roar, some folk b’lieve in signs
But if you want me, you got to take your time
Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed
But I got everything all the good girls need

Lovely Lady Lumps.
As my husband said, sleeping with a skinny woman is like making love to a bed full of wooden hangers.
There is a valid point about distorted image here. My ex would beat her self up (emotionally) because she thought she was fat. Ironically her “measurements” were nearly identical to Marilyn Monroe’s. But, she had it stuck in her head, she was fat and that was that.
OMG! They are real!! No wonder they banned the ad!
I don’t often get the chance to beat others to the punch ;-)
She’s beautiful. VS is much racier.
I admit getting a little grossed out at some of the Victoria’s Secret ads. There’s one model where you can actually see her ribs. As in so visible you can count them. She looks like she stepped out of a concentration camp rather than off a runway. Skeletons wearing underwear are not really sexy.
Size 16? That is frickin’ HUGE...... That is like 210+ pounds or something.
Yeah. You know....normal.
16 is her size, not her age. And I swear today's 16 is smaller than it used to be.
I'd sooner be seen arm in arm with her than with any of the model types who sport the starved-junkie look.
‘Scuse me whilst I clean the drool from my keyboard...
LOL! Well I would like to see more pictures of this model but I was expecting to see one of Helen.
I’d hit it.
I'll third that, except that I'm working on getting rid of some of the excess.
I’d hit that like a high fast ball.
Depends on how tall she is. If she’s short, she could only weigh 160lb and be a size 16.
She is bigger than size 16. Maybe a super-sized 16. I liked the other picture better. Cue Helen Thomas picture.
