You may recall Nancy Upton, the clever plus-size gal who ironically entered herself in America Apparel’s “The Next Big Thing” modeling contest. In her entry, Nancy submitted pictures of herself nearly naked, alternatively covered with/chowing down on all sorts of fatty foods. Her submission stated simply, “I’m a size 12. I just can’t stop eating.”
Nancy took her submission seriously, in that she was serious about showing how offensive the retailer’s contest (which called for fans of “full-sized fannies” and “booty-ful” models) was to plus-size women.
So we were surprised and pleased to find out via The Frisky on Friday that Upton actually won the contest, which was decided by online votes.
