Swimwear model Kate Upton has been getting lots of stick about her weight lately, but she isn’t having any of it. Although she has had an amazing year, covering Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition and plenty of other magazines, some sites have taken aim at Kate over her weight, stating that she is actually fat and not the kind of size than women should aspire to be. One particular site stated that Kate has “huge thighs, NO waist and big fat floppy boobs.”
Although Kate isn’t as thin as conventional fashion models, she is far from being overweight, and looks great for her shape – hell, she’s rolling in dough because she isn’t like normal models. Kate’s rep responded to the nasty blog posts, whose negative comments were echoed on several other blogs. The rep commented:
“It’s absurd. Kate is gorgeous and very healthy.”
Kate also hit back by saying she is happy and doesn’t have to starve herself in order to maintain her shape which she feels is important:
“I’m not going to starve just to be thin. I want to enjoy life and I can’t if I’m not eating and miserable.”
