As I mentioned before, I know a bunch of people in the pageant industry. One woman I know keeps talking about how she's trying to "get fit" for an upcoming pageant. She's STICK THIN and I thought that she meant maybe getting toned a little so she'd have more shape. Nope. She's mentioned more than once that she's trying to get rid of her "whale-like thighs" and that's a direct quote.
I mean, she looks really thin to me!
Her comment kinda bothered me a bit, not only because I feel she has a distorted view of herself, but also because there are a couple of overweight ladies in her division who are competing just because they want to. They're on the listserve too and I bet they're turning green and/or red at her comments. If she thinks her thighs are "whale-like" then, let me tell you, the rest of us must be blubber central!
Plus, the ladies were discussing their picks for Miss Universe and more than one person mentioned that they thought that Miss Spain and Miss India needed to get personal trainers.
GO AND LOOK at those two contestants. Yeah, it does look like they have a little bit of "extra" thigh compared to the other stick thin delegates, but COME ON!! They are NOT out of shape! I'm sorry, I don't mean to get so excited but puh-lease!
Someone help me before I start lecturing....
