what you are looking at, folks, are two photos of the newly crowned America’s Next Top Model, Whitney. Remember her? the plus-sized one? the one i was SO happy to see win because i think she’s beautiful and lovely and wonderful and had some serious attitude?

but…i’m smelling something, i don’t know, um, off…

Apparently, there are some rumors out there that Whitney as a size 4 didn’t think she could win ANTM (because she was too big to be regular! interesting how that works…) and was approached and told to gain a whole bunch of weight so they could plug her as a plus-sized model.

interesting…what do you think about this? what do you think about Whitney’s whole dialogue about winning it for the girls like her who were different and made fun of? is she still genuine?

A size 4 is too big?! And 8-10 (which I read somewhere is what she is now) is PLUS SIZED?! Wow.

I just don’t understand how a size 4 is too big. honestly. what is this world coming to?
I don’t watch ANTM so I’m not 100% sure of the dealings you mention, but it does sound kind of fishy!

I find it really hard to believe that THAT girl got made fun of! She is gorgeous. She definitely looks thinner in these pictures but it is hard to say. Don’t you think it would be a huge scandal of ANTM did that? I don’t think they would risk it.

The second pic is totally stretched! She does look thinner but still not toothpick thin like the other girls. I have to say, between her and Anya I thought Anya was more model like. I dunno…there was just something a bit too pin-up about Whitney.
