She's hot!
FYI. a stone weight is 14 pounds. And hitting for six (as in six runs) is a cricket term, sort of like hitting a home run in baseball.

And I see no reason why a company CAN'T and or SHOULDN'T be able to choose what people represent their company.glaeken said:
Sorry, women are the biggest hypocrites on the planet. They cry foul when something like this crops up but they also will not date men who are: bald, fat, thin, short. IMO this is NO different than what the company did.
BTW: when you enter into the modelling world you have to be prepared to be judged on your appearance. Not everyone will be to everyone else's tastes. If she was devistated because they asked her to lose weight, she should change her profession...NOW.
I thought it was great when Cover Girl added Queen Latifah as one of their models. Beautiful woman in a + size. To me it added a whole new respect to that company.
JJ: I think you should read more closely, I said change her profession, not job. There is a big difference.Jasmine Jazz said:i thought thats what she did? she quit her job and went to other bra company right?
I agree the company should be able to make decision and if she doesnt want to be small can get another job! Like I got many invitations to go to Los Angels and be in porn DVDs but they said I had to do greek and had to do with no condom and i said no way!!! but my choice same like the bra lady!
PLUS sized? lol ummm how about gygantore lol....a 1 player said:
But then again, they had to. They purport to represent the majority of the ladies in US society. In order to do that they can't have any petite women (women @ 160 lbs lol).
--> But a few days after we revealed she’d left her job in disgust, her confidence received a big boost. “But when you published my story, Ultimo contacted my agent to sign me up with a prestigious new contract.MLAM said:
Actually, I'd like to know if the company said "she was too fat" or those were her words.......we ALL know that women interpret words differently than men. I mean, if someone said "lose a few pounds" I can see her "hearing" you're too fat.............
As I said, it was probably a decision made by wonderbra as to how they want to be represented.
In addition, I am wondering if she has put on any weight since you did the first shots for them........

That's fat. ha ha ha ha I am laughing at wonderbra at this moment. I agree with some of the posts of the guys over there saying that showing off bras is to show off curves and not a skeleton.
Bad move on the part of wonderbra as this is very bad publicity for them. I'll have to go look at some of the wonderbra models and do a comparison now and see how sickly and drained thier models look.
Good for her to keep her health.
Smart move on the part of Ultima to snap her up too to show that they do not use high pressure on thier models to risk thier health as more of a caring and reasonable company.

LOL let's not over dramatize the situation. Hell, models are hired and fired on a daily basis based SOULY on their appearance.Jade4u said:
Sorry, losing a couple of pounds is NOT risking her health, not by a long shot. Heck my weight alone goes up and down 10 lbs from month to month and I'm not unhealthy. Heck, I bet this weekend alone many people gained 5 lbs.
I am wondering: why is it that women ALWAYS compare a svelte or thin model to being unhealthy? But yet when a woman gains 10 15 or 20 pounds of PURE fat, they don't bring up the associated health issues at all?
A customer (and that's what wonderbra was) asking a model to lose a couple of pounds is absolutely NO different than a client asking me to paint over a cabinet made of really nice oak veneer. If that's what they want I can either say yes I'll do it, or no, I won't. If I say no? They'll find someone who will. Just like in this case: wonderbra asked her to lose a couple of pounds, she can either do it, or not. She chose not to. BFD.
Yes, it's a threat. But until they carry it out, it's only a threat. Until the ax falls and the cheques stop, I have a job.MLAM said:
