Weight Is Just A Number

This is kind of a nothing post, and a reason to post a photo of Jessica Simpson, but it’s a lazy Sunday and I have zero ideas today. Apparently, Simpson almost became a recluse after dealing with people who were weight shaming her. Come on by, Jess; I’ll work you through your problems.

Jessica Simpson allegedly dealt with so much body shaming in her career that the negativity nearly forced the singer inside for long stretches.

The actress’ mother, Tina Simpson, 61, appeared on “Today” Wednesday and relayed to the show that the “Dukes of Hazzard” star, 40, “wanted to be a recluse” as a result of the constant criticism Simpson was receiving about her weight.

“I have to be honest – to me the hardest thing with Jessica has been the weight. Because the way people judge her, it’s unbelievable,” Tina said. “Body-shaming is a terrible thing, and no girl should have to go through that — or guy. Period.”

Yeah, there would be no weight shaming from me, and if she would like me to point out her best assists, I am certain I can be of assistance. Day or night.

Italian Pageanteer Has The Hot Skinny

Meet Paola Torrente.

This fat bastard finished second in the Miss Italy pageant, a performance which did not go over well with other contestants and their families, because she’s so morbidly obese.

Oh, I forgot beauty pageant contestants live in the backwards Bizarro World where hot curvy babes are labeled “fat.”

A Miss Italy contestant body shamed for being ‘too fat’ to be a beauty queen has hit back at her haters, saying: “I love myself for what I am.” Paola Torrente, who is a size 14, was ridiculed by other contestants and trolled on social media over her size after she came second in the competition.

The bitter mother of Miss Italy’s third place contestant Viviana Vogliacco was not so apologetic, having said a size 14 woman should “take part in the Plus Size Miss Italy contest” and not in the mainstream event. Even her highest profile critic, Croatian model Nina Moric, has apologised for saying she had “too much flesh” to share a stage with her skinnier compatriots.

What the f**k is wrong with people? Paola is smoking hot with a body I would caress with my hands – and tongue – for days on end. Plus size? Go f**k yourself. Sharing too much flesh? Dude, that’s a feature, not a bug!

Thankfully, Paola is above all the nonsense doled out by the galactically stupid:

Paola, 22, said: “I embrace my curves, and I’m never ashamed of them. There are many women that chose surgery to become more curvy. I want to tell young women to accept themselves and to understand that feeling good and being happy is the most powerful thing to fight people’s words and thoughts.” (H/T – Kevin)

I agree wholeheartedly, especially if it’ll get mu up close and personal with Paola.

In the interest of fair and balanced coverage, there are more photos below the fold.
