Welcome to another arousing exciting edition of Women I Love! (Yes, two in one week. I have a lot of girl crushes to work through so I don’t have time to dilly-dally.)
Introducing: Ashley Graham
Ashley Graham in Latina Magazine
I will never understand why Ashley Graham isn’t so spectacularly successful that we can’t open a newspaper without seeing her. She is literally perfect. Her figure, her face, her hair, her amazing lips… all perfect. I can’t even talk about it, the girl just kills me.

She was discovered in her native Nebraska at age 12 and by age 15 she had been signed with Ford Models. Even though she was and is gorge gorge gorgeous, she still had to deal with prejudice; her high school peers would tell her “You’re a fat model. It doesn’t count.” She is conscious that her unique opportunity in plus size modelling probably saved her from developing quite a negative body image in her teens; as such, she is purportedly working on a self-esteem handbook for teenage girls.

She’s also best friends with Crystal Renn. Good lord, can you imagine?! If I ran into them together I would be an utter mess. A quivering, stammering, fallen-and-I-can’t-get-up mess.
Am...
...dead
PS. For those in New York, she did an interview with Vogue US on her favourite NY shopping haunts which has been graciously uploaded on Too Fat for Fashion.
Ashley is so impossibly lush.
Why have I never seen this woman before? I think I have a new crush… she is absolutely stunning.
I dunno why she reminds me so much of Mia tyler (my girl crush <3). Anyway, it's weird that she's not more famous- she's about 20 times prettier than most of the straight models out there.
She is gorgeous.She looks a little like Eva Mendes in some of her pictures.
She’s absolutely stunning. Incredible!!!!!
I like her a lot. But maybe she should explain why she modeled for Alli, the “weight loss” drug.
ooo- shes gorgeous!
Lynn is right. Ashley used to be quite popular, but when she did her diet-drug ads, she alienated a LOT of fans. It was a real slap in the face to all curvy girls.
I’ve not seen those diet ad’s which sound really disappointing but boy is she gorgeous!
Lynn and Karen are liars and just trying to get free pub for a diet drug while attempting to destroy a beautiful woman’s public image. The moderator of this board needs to make their email addresses public as this is nothing short of slander.
What?
Beautiful or not, Ashley Graham did model for a diet drug. It’s not slander, it’s fact. A really disappointing fact.
Not a lie Dave. Here’s the proof:

Well, that is not definate proof of anything. She might have modeled that shot for a number of things and Alli bought the rights. It should be an issue of does she use this and say fat chicks are ugly. No, I don’t see her dropping any weight and she doesn’t openly endorse this product. She is gorgeous, sexy and totally stunning. If she is anywhere on the page, I see her an typically not any other model. She needs to get more work and grace the world with her flawless form.
