"Um, Karolina, You're Like, So Fat!"

Um, HUGE bodysnarking alert! You'd think Brazilian fashion journalists would have learned their lesson after a 21-year-old native model Ana Carolina Reston made headlines when she died of anorexia, forcing the entire industry to a call to arms regarding promoting new standards when it comes to projecting healthier body images.

So what the heck were reporters thinking when according to Catwalkqueen, critics called out 24-year-old supermodel Karolina Kurkova for having "back fat, love handles and cellulite" and looking "uncharacteristically chubby" when she appeared in a Cia Maritima show during Sao Paulo Fashion Week.

See, this is why models starve themselves and women (and now men, too) follow suit! For the record, I've been to several of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows (of which Karolina is a star), and ya know what? Almost every girl has a bit of cellulite--some more than others. Why? Because most women, even (gasp!) models, have cellulite, that's why. Argh this pisses me off so much. In fact, I'm surprised no one commented on the fact that at the ripe old age of 24, she's a runway "hag" too. I hope Karolina is all like, "Whatev's losers!"

But somehow, I doubt that.

    Hi,

    I used to have pretty bad cellulite which only got worse after I get pregnant. I had it mostly around my inner thighs and bottom and a bit on my tummy as well. I tried eating more healthy food and did a lot of exercise as well which friends and family members recommended but my skin was still lumpy and floppy. I then recently read an article by a lady who claimed to have got rid of her cellulite by using a particular cream. I tried it and it worked pretty well. It took a couple of weeks but my skin had improved a lot and I managed to get rid of my cellulite completely. You can read more about the lady's article at the link below:
