6. Drew Barrymore
The very lovely Drew Barrymore too faced huge criticism from media for her healthy figure. She spoke about it in an interview with Elle magazine, “If you’re too thin, they kill you and if you’re too fat, they kill you. There’s no such thing as perfection and someone else’s definition of it is not good enough for me.”
5. Beyonce Knowles
The bootylicious Beyonce Knowles is a fitness freak. In an interview with Teen Vogue, Knowles said that, “The best thing I can say to young ladies is accept the body you’re in. If you have curves, love your curves. The thing to strive for is to have the best healthy body you can have. It’s really not about being skinny or being curvy. What matters is that you love yourself and you are taking care of your health.”
4. Jennie Runk
The plus size American model Jennie Runk featured in ads for H&M and Marina Rinaldi. She is popular for her appearance in H&M’s Summer 2013 beachwear campaign. In an interview with a magazine, Runk said, “People assume “plus” equates to fat, which in turn equates to ugly. This is completely absurd because many women who are considered plus-sized are actually in line with the American national average, or a US size 12/14 (somewhere between a UK size 14-18).” She further added, “There are also negative connotations associated with thinness. Just as bigger women get called fat or chunky, thin women get called gangly or bony.” “There’s no need to glamorize one body type and slam another. We need to stop this absurd hatred towards bodies for being different sizes. It doesn’t help anyone and it’s getting old.”
