I saw something about Donald Trump encouraging Miss Universe (dunno if it was this year or a few years ago) to lose weight. Evidently she got up to 175 pounds and she said herself that she was happy at her weight. Donald Trump said that she should be more physically fit so he had this campaign to get her in weight before the pagaent...like he had personal trainers and dietitians help her. She was a good sport about it and really bubbly. She didn't mind doing it but it sounded like she was happy with her weight and that's where I thought it was so sad that people, or Donald Trump, couldn't just let her be.
Did anyone else hear about this or see that episode?

Hootie, that was Miss Universe 1996, Alicia Machado (Venezuela) who gained weight. Jump back to page 4, I talk a bit about it there!
jess_pom, Venezuela had a question about "extreme sports" and she said something about how she values her life very much...LOL
