Fat Model????
Filed under: Fashion Smashion > Sad Sad
Talk about unrealistic standards.
Hottie Czech supermodel Karolina Kurkova has been under intense scrutiny and faced some tough criticism lately. Apparently, the thin model gained some weight last year.
The Brazilian media even criticized the 24 year-old in June for her supposed "cellulite and love handles" after walking in the Sao Paulo Fashion Week. They also called her "too fat" after she walked in the Victoria's Secret lingerie show in Miami last November.
In order to get "slim" for the lingerie show, Kurkova has said she dieted on mainly fresh veggies, protein, and salad.
And, even before last November's show, a source said she cut out all carbs and worked out for hours in order to get slimmer like the other Victoria's Secret models. The friend says, "She was exhausted and didn’t get down to where she wanted to be."
In fact, Kurkova almost didn't make it into the VS show due to her weight, they claim. It wasn't until the last minute that they decided to include her. That explains why her name wasn't on any of the pre-show press materials.
But, according to another insider, it seems her weight "problems" are attributed to the ever popular thyroid disorder which is said to mess with her metabolism.
Forbes states Kurkova is currently the eighth highest-paid supermodel in the world. So she's obviously doing something right!
We think Karolina needs to have a sitdown with Tyrannosaurus, on her show - of course!

Fat bitch
FAT!? WHAT!? THAT is NOT fat!! There are many young and older women who would KILL to have her body in that picture, that's ridiculous! lmao fat….
What the fuck!? She's not fat! She's gorgeous and thin.
Fuck the fashion industry.
Wow people sure are stupid, she is clearly fit and gorgeous!
That makes me damned sick. Love handles? Cellulite? WHERE??
Plus, even skinny ass celebrities have cellulite. Mischa Barton, anyone?
This unrealistic standard of "beauty" has gone too far. Stupid homos in the fashion industry want everyone to look like boys then they ought to get boy models. Or better yet just hang the clothes on some damned hangers and wheel them down the runway. Fuck.
I agree w/ #43…that belt is dumb. It would make anyone look fat. A zipper bursting on her body…….totally hot. You don't want to poke your eye out with a clavicle. Let there be carbs. Let the angels partaketh of those carbs.
holy crap this is SAD. she is not fat at all, she's absolutely beautiful. I WISH my body looked like hers! just because her bmi's over .5 she's almost banned from vs? what crap. she's healthy!
FUCK america's views on what we consider to be beautiful,
if girls aren't a size 0, they're considered fat. and that's bullshit.
she is gorgeous and many would kill to have a body like that!
fat is where its AT!!!!
OMG!!!! she's NOT fat, at all!!!!!!!!!!!!! the fashion industry and the media are fucking SICK. Thanks to those fuckers a lot of models and girls are anorexic and bullimic. Karolina Kurkova has a healthy body!!!!
Re: starlettxx – damn bitch, you got some issues.
you're probably one of them 300lbs twats, and you're just venting.
it's okay, let it out honey.
As far as I can tell this woman is perfect. Every straight man, bi & gay woman, and even some straight women I know would want to bang this gazelle like amazon if given the chance.
I guess as far as model standards go, she's a bit big.
But in the real world, she looks healthy, slim and beautiful as ever!
Why are we letting homosexual designers decide what a "sexy" woman should look like? Between them and too-skinny women in charge (like Anna Wintour)…it's no wonder a woman that looks so sexy and womanly is called "fat". Totally fucked up.
Hey fashion industry, are you listening? Here's your quasi-focus group telling you that Karolina IS NOT FAT, and that you're the problem.
The only way Vogue and other lemming fashion rags will change their tune is if people start calling them and telling them exactly what they think about the skeletons they feature in their pictorials and NOT BUY THEIR MAGAZINES. If it mpacts their bottom line, they'll change their tune.
NO WAY….YOU SHOULD BE OUTRAGED AT THIS>>>ENOUGH WITH THE SKINNY COKE MODELS!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS PERFECT.
She's fat according to model standards, but model standards is something that needs to change. I think she looks beautiful. And I thought Brazilians liked big butts and stuff??
Wow.
If thats fat, can i be fat please?
It just breaks my heart to hear that. She is gorgeous and looks healthy! Not on the verge of death like some or most models!
i love her, but it might be because im czech and bias…haha jk
i think she is beautiful and skinny…i would love to have her body
That has to be the most retarded shit I've ever heard. Just because she isn't skin and bones, she's fat??? She looks good as hell just the way she is. Now she's probably going to live off coke, caffeine and cigarettes just to live up to these stupid ass standards and be yet another reason for women to try and starve and kill themselves. Monsters!
This makes me sick! She is beautiful, thin, and curvy. Who the hell wants a Kate Moss??!! People are so stupid. I feel bad for her.
dude, whatever! you've called thinner people fat this past WEEK! if they wouldn't have said it, YOU would've… fuck you and fat-haters… she's SKINNY compared to your average woman. And you're a trying-to-be-ex-fatty hypocritical FUCK!
Thank Goodness…finally, a REAL woman on a runway! I think she looks really hot…that belt is killah!!!
She is amazing looking!
SHE IS GORGEOUS! i wish i was that fat!
This is like, MONTHS old news… wth?
she looks so good to me. way too bad for the industry. shame…
thats disgusting. shes gorgeous and not fat at all. And so what if she is?
She is beautiful. Not so sure about the getup she's in tho. How cool to see a little variety on the runway! Real women have curves!
She is absolutely gorgeous - much more interesting to look at than some boney chick
The people who set these "standards" need a good whack upside their heads. This model looks nice and healthy. And for those who think otherwise…not only is she still working, but she's already made a shitton of money for just looking the way she does. We should be so lucky!
wow , whoever thinks she's fat needs a reality check. i would trade my body anyday for her body. she's absolutely gorgeous.
She and Heidi are the only VS models that look good in the clothes. The others look like little boys that have mommy's lingerie on.
She is beautiful! She is healthy and fit! Everyone does not need to look like Kate Moss! This woman is an example of how it should be. Where is the fat
on her? Damn everyone wants perfection!
KK you are still my favorite VS model regardless.
It's refreshing to see her-she looks around my size (but a lot hotter, of course!).
What fat! lol1 in all honesty she has packed on the pounds over the years, but if you look at old vS catalogs from the early and mid ninties the models were not that skinny like they are now. The models real womanly curves. the women now are all nasty skinny with rib cages showing and I can't find any curves on them. She represents the orgiial concept of VS!
I think she looks great!!!
It's not that she's fat, it's because she isn't Brazilian. If this was Gisele's body, they wouldn't be saying anything. Brazil is dominating in the top models and they are trying to bring down non-Brazilians.
NO! She is perfect the way she is! Her tummy and thighs #3?? a bit to big? Get a fucking grip.
She looks beautiful. She is a beautiful, slender woman. I would love to look like her. She needs to get out of the modeling game and start treating her self right, she needs to stay the way she is because she looks healthy.
As a czech woman myself, I have to say that we are not sticks. Yes we can be thin, but we have curves. Why the hell else are we some of the most beautiful women in the world.
So what if she doesn't have 0% body fat like most models. She is healthy, thats the most important thing. The fashion world needs to realize that most of us aren't skin and bones.
Yo PEREZ! Please understand that thyroid disease is an autoimmune disease and it is HORRIBLE! Don't make light of it by saying "the ever popular thyroid disease". I was personally insulted by that. I suffered with joint aches, losing my hair and gaining 55 pounds in less than a year. It took 4 diffferent doctors to find out that I had this disease. AFter being diagnosed I finally lost the weight. People with thyroid disease have a hard time with cholesterol and CELLULITE! I was practically starving myself before being diagnosed and I would either stay the same weight or gain. She is incredibly lucky to be in the shape that she is in with thyroid disease. It will be a life long battle.
She has a better body then most supermodels she looks like a real woman. Shes gorgeous. Screw that anorexic look its gross.
i thought the fashion world are encouraging plus size. if this is consider fat, then everyone can start being super skinny, bulimic or anorexic.
She's GORGEOUS!! Unlike that contraption she's wearing.
Wait, what? She's *normal* and she's being critisized for being *normal*? Not everyone is in the negatives when it comes to size. Besides… stick thin & unhealthy isn't sexy- healthy is sexy! As long as she's eating properly, etc. or as long as someone is getting all the nutrients they need, they are fine. Some are born to be a certain size whether it be thin or curvy, and they shouldn't force their natural shape into something it's not… mwuah x
Skinny women of the world…..THIS is what women are S U P P O S E D to look like!! What man (or woman) in their right mind would want to be intimate with a bag of bones? EWWW I would think any person like a lil somethin somethin to hold on to??
She is not fat.
I think her body is HAWTA!!!
BUT she is a model and if she wants to continue she will have to meet model standards…which happen to be disgustingly thin.
that womans thighs are 5 miles apart! anyone who thinks she is fat needs to go jump off a bridge.
she is still beautiful
but she is way too fat to be on the runway
as a model its in ur job description to be skinny
Re: amy lou – I agree with you. If she really does have hypothyroidism, she looks fucking fantastic. I could run five miles a day and be on a strict diet and STILL not look like that. Fucking "popular" my ass.
Too fat?! Ridiculous. This is the way models SHOULD LOOK - healthy.
She's so pretty. It's nice to see a real woman's body modelling womens clothes, instead of those androgyonus women who look like 12 yr old boys playing dressup. If I see something on one of these superskinny models I don't even consider the clothes, since I look like a real woman and not a hangar.
SHE LOOKS BEAUTIFOOL!
Man people need to chill the fuck out
she anit fat
Hell she look hotter then me!
So what became of the Brazilian movement to prevent too thin models from even appearing lest they get that way by killing themselves? Wasn't it just two years ago as aspiring Brazilian model died due to being too thin?? How fast they forget… or perhaps they are just, well… Brazilian!
And we wonder why there are 18 year old models dying of heart attacks because they are too thin. The fashion world needs to pay attention. Karolina is gorgeous, she is in no way fat or overweight. The average size for a young woman under the age of 20 is a size 16 and yet we have a fashion world who has a hissy fit if their models are not a size 0. People need to realize that beauty has no size, young girls are dying to meet the unrealistic expectations put out by not only the fashion world but by the entertainment industry.
for get the fat comment… her face is fugly… shes gotta a butta face
she looks fabulous! they all need to look like KK! i'd buy lingerie from her!
I thought she had no belly button. It must be painted on?
how pathetic that thats considered fat
Definitely not fat. She has wide hips like Heidi Klum; they're always going to look "bigger" than other models and that's not a bad thing.
omg she's not fat ppl would kill to look that good !
NOTHING is wrong with her body.
this society is so fucked up.
Those idiots are nuts! I'm straight female and I think she is super hawt! She looks great. I also have the thyroid problem and trust me it could be worse! Jesus are yall trying to give this woman a complex!? Kurkova enjoy your money and your hawt hawt self because these haters wish they looked as good as you do! FACE!!!
Re: starlettxx – She looks gross? Such a bitch..I'm sure you're perfect.
thyroid problem? hahhahaha! a 'problem' that what? makes her look HEALTHY as opposed to anorexic/or a coke head?
give me a break! the girl is gorgeous from head to toe- she looks like a woman that could give birth to a healthy baby. God Bless her.
anyone that says any diff is a total and complete ASSHOLE and deserves to be shot, and needs to take a look at themselves in the mirror before opening their mouth again.
like you care. you'd probably like to to gain a little weight so you can talk bad about her on this blog. you hate fat people and YOU ARE FAT!!!
Re: MQbeth – Yeah, the zipper probably broke because it was a size zero instead a hugely fat size 2, LOL. The model industry and also the entertainment industry have incredibly stupid standards. On the other hand, look at Queen Latifah. She is a big girl but certainly beautiful. Women are much bigger now than at any other time in the history of our country. Yeah, I know, it's not healthy, but it is probably here to stay for awhile. It is time for the fashion industry to accept this and promote some larger models and clothing. Trust me, what looks good on a size zero model sure as hell isn't going to look good on a size 14 woman!
Why would they EVER fucking call her FAT? She's GORGEOUS, FIT and CONFIDENT. That LAST thing we need in the world is more support of the DISGUSTING image of skin-and-bones "perfection." Okay, I had a REALLY GOOD FRIEND who went through a horrible battle with anorexia because of these body images and when admitted to the hospital was 10 hours away from death, she had wasted away so much. Ok, SHUT UP PIMPS.
I WISHED I looked like that..omg she is NOT fat!
People: wether you like it or not she's kind of big to be in lingerie on TV. She's probably double the size the other models on the show an it stands out. Of course she's beautiful and not fat for regular mortals standards but these is the highest fashion in terms what they get paid to be on the runway, the incredible exposure they get to be on that show. They can demand Barbie/plastic/non-human bodies like Giselle's to sell thay fantasy.
there needs 2 b more models like this!
she looks fine because its victoria secret, where all the men can oggle her voluptuous figure, but when it comes to real clothes its different because the models should be as skinny as the designer wants…designer are like artists with the models their canvas, and they shouldnt have to put their "art" and a "canvas" if they dont like the way the model looks
She's got a slammin bod
SHE LOOKS AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and no her tummy and thighs are not a BIT too big. are you kidding me ?
I dont see her weight being a problem at all. Her face is the problem!!!
She has a hot body!!! I thought they didn't want size 0's walking down the runway. This is how all the models should look like than maybe I could sit through fashion shows without wanting to throw up with all the rib cages and shoulder blades popping out.
wow if she is fat where that leaves me XD, she is beautifull and healty fashion industry is crazy i was watching the other day a models show ( from the girl who was in the sunami i dont remember her name ) a girl who was said the only one who was in her right weight by the nutricionist was call fat by the critics and she had a body to die for
mens like hips, if you are too skinny you dont have boobs and implants looks like balloons
"ever popular thyroid disorder" common perez i have that and its not an excuse you dont get fatter for having that you loose weight more slowly thats all
she's fat for a model, but the whole thyroid thing bugs me. if you have a thyroid problem, your doctor gives you supplements and it balances out. i know a few people who have thyroid ploblems and they take their pills and they're not overweight at all
HOT!!!!!
She looks way better than the other VS models who look gross and bony-who wants to screw a skeleton. Skin and bones is very unsexy.
Why can't people be realistic? Why does it have to be one or the other extreme? No, she's NOT fat. But she's not 'ridiculously hot' either. Most of the other Victoria Secret girls are hotter. Some of the fashion industry uses disgusting stick-figure, ruler women with no curves. Victoria Secret doesn't. It has always used hot models. Real (but ideal) bodies. She looked better a few years ago. But that's not to say she still doesn't have a great body. And she should not be called fat.
wtf yea she might be a bit wide in her hips but that doesnt change anything:)
yes i can see the celulite from here or is that her ribs FOR GOODNESS SAKE who the hell would wear that down the street fat or skinny and why are they designing clothes to fit starving people in africa
she looks amazing, not even remotely fat. not every woman is the size of ones wrist (thank god for that)
There's such a double standard for models. Black models laike Tyra can have more fat, while white models get harrassed for a little normal fat.
Karolina is gorgeous!
Re: starlettxx –
stfu.
you're probably one of the ridiculously skinny females that eat nothing but cardboard.
go die.
She's not fat but she has a very fug face.
she is sooo gorgeous. the fashion industry is digusting!!!
IN THE RUNWAY MODEL BUSINESS UNLESS U ARE SHOWING PROTRUDING BONES , U ARE CONSIDERED FAT !! DESIGNERS ESSENTIALLY WANT COAT RACKS W. PRETTY FACES. THEY LIKE THEIR RUNWAY MODELS TO BE ANOREXIC FOR THE CATWALK…THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR HEALTH OR WELL BEING ..ITS ALL BUSNIESS…THIS MODEL IN THE LAYMAN'S WORLD WOULD BE CONSIDERED "HOT" BUT IN THE RUNWAY MODEL WORLD ( AND FOR SOME HOLLYWOOD ROLES) SHE WOULD BE CONSIDERED "FAT" !
Girlfriend is HOT. Why does everyone have to look the same. There are lots of skinny girls who look hot, but some women look better with a little more than just skin and bones. The fashion industry sucks the c**k of satan.
If I were her I would AVOID AVOID AVOID that tranny trainwreck known as Tyra Banks, though. Bad advice, Perez.
If this girl is fat I mindaswell just give up now. Really. This is so bad for our daughters. My daughter is 10 and is pleased that her Wii fit test says she's underweight. Karolina looks healthy and voluptuous and not even fat in the slightest.
fat?? yea ok!! why dont the designers just start making clothes bigger, so people can actually see stuff they would buy.
That girl looks fucking gorgeous. All of you idiots who think she is fat, go on google images and type in 'anorexic models'. that should get you off for the night.
She's fukin ok. She looks 100% better than fukin Shitney.hehe
She has a beautiful body! But by unrealistic model standards she's "fat". That is so pathetic.
I think she has an amazing body
I'm much thinner than her, and I'm jealous of her body!
She is Hot and I think her big thighs and stomach are very hot looks like a real women its extremely attractive
OMG, I actually have thyroid problems and I never looked good enough to be a VS model… Just all anorexic and eyes popping out- not to mention the mood swings… She's gorgeous!
