Lily Allen: Happy to be a size 8?

Posted on Oct 5th 2007 5:16PM by Martha Edwards
Controversial British musician Lily Allen has lashed out at super-slim celebs like Victoria Beckham for making her look like 'Fat Lily Allen', according to this article. She says, "I'm a size 10 (American size 8) with a size 8 top (American size 6) and made to feel fat next to someone like Kate Moss. What makes me angry is I let it happen. I'm not super-skinny, so in 'Fameland' I'm fat. It's now my ambition to get all those skinny-arsed b*****s off the covers of magazines and get normal people on them."

I think Allen's got the right idea -- Size 8 is not big and it's better to at least try and change the system rather than putting your own health at risk by conforming to it.

However, according to the Skinny Website, Allen isn't quite as confident with her size as she lets on. She apparently has caved to pressure and lost some weight. I hope she doesn't slim down too much -- the world needs more size-8 + cover girls.What do you think?
