Guilty or innocent?

It seems unnecessarily cruel to me to criticize in public people who are overweight.

People have got to get thicker skins. As one who has been overweight at times, I too have been subject to good-natured ribbing about my "girth."

I laugh it off and learned to live with it. In fact, I will often respond by way of a clever comeback or making my own joke about it. This immediately disarms everybody around and reduces the tension.

For instance, (I am tall too) somebody will ask me "how's the weather up there." Instead of getting offended, I'll reply back something like "Partly cloudy and breezy, how are things down there?" That never fails to crack people up.

Doesn't matter if you are tall, short, excessively skinny, etc., people are going to make comments about it. So best to develop a sense of humor.

People need to stop being perpetually offended all the time.

If fat Kelly has a sense of humor I’m good with her.

She looks fine but then again I’ve always preferred my women softer and well fed.

She is overweight-she has more than one chin-it is entirely her business if she chooses be overweight-but if she does, then she shouldn’t whine because people notice that she is fat and comment on it.

No, I’m not overweight, and haven’t been-my husband was in the military when I had my cub, and the military doctors were not PC and did not give a damn if your feelings were hurt-you either stayed within their 25-30 lb limit in pregnancy, or they would hand you a diet plan to follow and shame the hell out of you-I think it was a good thing. That I’m-fat-because-of-the-baby excuse is just that-an excuse to overeat.

I don’t eat processed food, and I’ve weighed the same since I was 17-I believe it is all about eating healthy, natural food.

This actually shows that a number of fat girls could be very attractive if they just lost some weight.

Sexist hate speech.

Why does FOX hate women?

Not something I really give a rat's patootie about.

She has talent and it doesn't come from the lard on her butt, it comes out of her mouth.

If we still lived in the radio era, I submit there might be 10 or 12 people that would be aware of her weight gain.

Like someone up thread said...she's a singer, not a model.

Now, if her politics turn too far left, then I'll reconsider.

Got in trouble w/Mrs. Springman when I said her baby had a big head on People mag cover. Very cute baby, very large head however.

I saw her on the iHeart Awards the other day and was shocked at how she had ballooned so much. I know she had a baby, but it's been 10 months. And the dress she wore was totally unflattering.

I saw her on Idol last week. Noticed she was chunky, but her pipes are still superior. She also struck me as a real, down-to-earth, person instead of a faux-glitz snob. Even exclaimed that if she had to go against a crew like they currently host, she wouldn’t have had a chance. Was cute when one of the guys hit an area of the song he was going to compete with and she blurted, “I think I’m pregnant”. She’s ma married Mom and I haven’t heard a single peep of any scandal about her - goes to show how shallow some folks can be.
