Models with Average Size Gets Big Reaction

Average Sized Model Gets Big Reaction - Lizzi Miller Glamour Model

Slender, leggy supermodels such as Bar Refaeli and Gisele Bundchen are taking a backseat these days to an unlikely supermodel contender in the form of Lizzi Miller — all 180 glorious pounds of her.

Miller, at 20 already a seven-year veteran of the modeling world, rocked the magazine industry and the blogosphere when her photo appeared alongside an article on womens body confidence in the September issue of Glamour magazine. The photo shows Miller in all her blond beauty, flashing a confident smile — but also flashing some stomach pooch that hangs over her thong bikini.

Within a day, Glamour was inundated with comments, overwhelmingly positive, about the magazines showcasing a beautiful model unafraid to let it all hang out. Web sites such as Facebook, MSN and Jezebel.com were consumed with dialogue over Millers photo, and Newsweek.com dedicated Web space to a renewed debate over womens body image.

I have to say this again!! SHE"S GORGEOUS!!!

[LifeIsGoodLydie]

We need to stop trying to fit into the picture of what big profittable corporations think a woman's body should look like. ...

[danahmite1]

she isnt plus sized...she is a perfect natural body...not sick looking skinny, no implants, an no manly muscles ..just perfect women body and I dont think she is 12-14 size..I am 10-12 and I think im bigger than her..i guess she is 8-10

Just when 4 out of 5 people in North America are so-called "plus-sized", then Wal-mart stop selling their larger sizes and now only sell tiny clothes for Womyn and Men???? I asked the manager to look around and tell me what % of his customers would fit these "baby clothes" and he said "he never thought of that"??? I doubt if anything will get done!

[mrfoltz]

I think I heard rattling of bones when some of those emaciated Womyn were on the kat-walk????

[EricaRaeTodd]

@LifeIsGoodLydie I agree with this. I'm sick of seeing bones. I think this woman has a beautiful body.

[EricaRaeTodd]

I'm offended that she's considered "plus size." Her body is beautiful.

[boognish1975]

um she's kinda fat y'all

[LynxChan]

She's beautiful yes, but I object to her being a "plus sized" model. Plus what? She's perfectly normal.

Positive atitude is all one needs, she did a wonderful job, congrats!!!
