Curvy girls unite...

Listening to: One Way Or Another by Kate Voegele

I came across this article after a friend told me about it. Read for yourself:

"So much for men not finding Posh attractive – the Jonas Brothers have revealed that they really fancy her. The American boyband picked Victoria as the person they’d most like to send into space (bear with us, we’ll explain all in a second) because “she would show aliens the perfect body of a woman.” Stick thin with big fake boobs? Oh dear, that makes us cry a bit. The boys picked Posh as part of a Bebo project called A Message From Earth, a digital time capsule which will be beamed into space from the National Space Agency in Ukraine. Yes, that makes our heads explode a bit too. We’d imagine that the Jonas Brothers aren’t the only ones who’d like to send Posh into space, although for rather different reasons…"

You know half the teenage Jonas-loving population is about to barf up their Happy Meals and beg mommy & daddy for a gym membership as a Christmas gift.
This article infuriates me. They are so set on being role models for kids to look up to... they watch their mouth, dress appropriately, wear purity rings, and basically follow the Disney guidelines to a tee... but what kind of example is this setting for their young fans? Their fans already follow every word they say like Jesus Christ said it himself and if you don't follow it you're on a one way trip straight to Hell. In a society already too focused on looking like stick figures, telling your fans that Victoria Beckham has the "perfect body of a woman" is probably not setting the best example.

We all have our qualms about our figures, myself included. But let me just tell you, there is no way I'd want to look like Victoria Beckham. I like my real ass and tits.

Holla at the curvy girls!
