[on Whitney Thompson's win on Top Model USA (2003)] Whitney took great pictures and she definitely knows how to conduct herself--she's very outspoken and she speaks really well . . . I feel like she doesn't look like a plus-size model, and therefore it's sending the wrong message because there are women who are actually full-figured and they see her and say, "Wow, if she's a plus-size model than what am I?" . . . But honestly I think it's about time if that's what it takes to change the face of fashion, than that's a tiny step. Hopefully, we will have another woman who represents a larger portion of American plus-size models.
