I do not think this has been covered - on ANTM, Any ideas why we are not getting "My life as a covergirl" with last cycle's winner - what's-her-face? Is she locked away in rehab somewhere or what? Not that I mind getting to catch up with more past participants via the commercials, just wondering about the break in pattern.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

No, she models plus size clothing. They were giving her shit throughout the competition for losing weight because there is NO market for the in-between models (the size 10-12s basically). It's all crazy. of course.

I put "plus-size" in quotes because, seemingly, she put on weight to be on the show as a "plus-size" and then, when she won, Tyra was calling her curvy or something. (And sizes are crazy - I saw one catalog that was classifying XL as a 12.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
"Plus-size" models officially start at size 16, IIRC. So if you're size 4-14 aka THE SIZE OF MOST WOMEN, you can't haz modeling career.

This web site says most plus-size models are sizes 10-16: [link]
Of course, given the way sizes vary, is that a J. Crew 10 or a Lands End 10 or a Chanel 10, or who knows what?
