Just because she has got thunder thighs? Yes, I know I am, but I would love to put a pashmina round her to save her from the deep humiliation she will feel one day when she looks back on those early days.
Plus she almost destroyed a certain song for me.

You have to accept that you think that she doesn't have a good figure but we disagree. I am not being dishonest. I actually, honestly, truly disagree with you.

I personally do not like to see women half naked, posing like something out of playboy because I find it demeaning to women. I feel that way whether the woman has thin thighs or large ones. I hate the way that a woman's worth is not in her brains or her achievements but in her tits and arse.

But the woman does not have unreasonably large thighs, she is not a disgusting shape, she is a perfectly normal woman.

And even if she DID have huge thighs - so what? It wouldn't matter.

figcake - why do you care so badly? Were you in her class or something? Seriously this is weird.

reinitindear · 11/02/2011 23:01

cornsilk I think the op didn't get through on the x factor Smile

MsKLo · 11/02/2011 23:02

Agree cornsilk

Op just sounds nasty and vindictive now as well as very very silly

cornsilk · 11/02/2011 23:02

now it all makes sense...

MsKLo · 11/02/2011 23:02

Ha ha rein! That
Must be it!

What I do object to is her being airbrushed to fuck in this picture. They've taken inches of her thighs in that picture compared to the un-airbrushed ones. Why do they do that, what's really so wrong with having big, strong thighs and a big bum? she's toned, not flabby.

Monty27 · 11/02/2011 23:07

Herbie - I'm a size 10 too, but I don't have those curves. I look like a boy

Smile
reinitindear · 11/02/2011 23:07

I think my thighs may look the same size when I stand up but when I sit they can squish out to impressive proportions Grin hers look very firm and would seem to be able to withstand siting Envy

reinitindear · 11/02/2011 23:09

sitting grr

thegreatpudenda · 11/02/2011 23:10

scottishmummy · 11/02/2011 23:12

cornsilk · 11/02/2011 23:24

cornsilk · 11/02/2011 23:24
StarlightPrincess · 11/02/2011 23:28

No, even the tall one is a minger. They must be the ugliest boy band since N'Sync.And yes, they have been ridiculously airbrushed!

carriedababi · 11/02/2011 23:35

boak the tall one is yuk!

cerealqueen · 11/02/2011 23:40

She can wear what she likes.

Whatever she wears, as a woman in the public eye she will be pulled apart by people like the OP.

Her body, and her clothes will be the focus. Op, would you slay a man in the same way? Are you male or female?

KurriKurri · 11/02/2011 23:46

This is a very depressing attitude OP - how can you possibly say that girl looks hideous and has thunder thighs.

I dread to think what would happen if you saw me walking down the street -you probably wouldn't be able to stop yourself running up and putting a giant bag over me.

scottishmummy · 11/02/2011 23:57

AB looked great in bad boys video.gorgeous woman

cyb · 11/02/2011 23:58

She has a nice figure but zero style

As someone described her 'A Poundland Beyonce'
