And I get scared when they mess up. I can't imagine what they go back home to :(

Gymnasts who trained under the Karolyis (I believe some of the magnificent 7) have said that they were limited to 800 calories a day, which is even scarier when you think how much they had to be burning. They said that the men’s gymnastics team would sneak them food at the olympics. Can't wait until Marta is gone.

She has a crazy story. Her dad sounds like he was The Worst... he forced his wife to give up their disabled daughter at birth and allegedly squandered all of Dominique’s gymnastics earnings, causing her to emancipate herself at 17. Olympics or not it honestly sounds like the other Moceanu sister had a better childhood.

I heard a horrifying interview with Moceanu recently on NPR where she was talking about her father beating her for not performing well enough or for gaining weight, and one particular incident where he found twizzlers in her room and slapped her across the face in front of the Karolyis, who apparently did nothing.…

Henry Winkler visits Lucille Ball?

Did the sculptor who made Scary Lucy also make this Scary Fonzie statue? Because that guy needs to Sit onIt!

She paid us all in orgasms. Didn’t you know that’s what we’ve been doing this whole time while you guys are busy hating the muslims. We have all been having sex.

His favorite band is The Replacements, so that's pretty cool too.

This could have been a fantastic opportunity for a designer/stylist to show their chops by putting her together, which would not only highlight her as beautiful artist, but that they themselves have talent and barrier-free vision.

I WANT HER IN YELLOW. RED. TEAL. VIOLET.

Couldn’t Leslie’s people provide the designer with a Leslie - sized form to borrow?

I will donate my couch throw to the cause. I mean, it covers me, but I’m only 5'7". Perhaps Leslie could wear it as a miniskirt?

YASS.

Giving them the benefittiest benefit of the doubt, designers make their samples in the tiniest of sizes to save money on recuts, and because their skinny models will fit into it just fine (BTW, when I was in the biz, samples were usually a size 6 or 8, which is what models wore THEN, in prehistoric times). I…

I think Leslie’s a size 14 at least....she’s six feet tall. She is in proportion for her height. If she were a 6 or an 8, she would look thin to emaciated. She looks healthy. Most designers do NOT know how to dress what is known as plus size (they don’t know what looks good on them), which is a shame b/c 14/16 is not…

I want this whole look! This is awesome. And I want to hang out with her and get our drink on with Christian Siriano.

And just look at her here. A simple outfit, and she really rocks it. They are soooo stupid.

Sadly there’s probably a lot of truth to that. Although they’re not coming out and saying it directly, I would bet large chunks of money that they feel that as a tall, buxom, black woman, she’s not going to be the next Lupita Nyong’o, and won’t be that bankable, so why bother investing time and money in dressing her?…
