As the eating disorder epidemic in the fashion industry spirals out of control yet again, plus-sized model Emme Aronson weighed in on the skinny controversy in an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com, and praised a recent magazine article pointing out the problem.

"It is unhealthy to say that women have to live up to this image that is super-thin, prepubescent and unsafe," Emme exclusively told RadarOnline.com.

"The disparity between what is real and what is shown to us is unobtainable."

Plus-sized sexpot Whitney Thompson, who was crowned winner of Season 10’s America’s Next Top Model, has launched a new dating website for real women – The Big and the Beautiful – and RadarOnline.com has all the details.

"Anyone who has looked for love online, like me, is familiar with the cycle: post 'flattering' photos to get attention, then stress about the face-to-face meeting," explains Thompson. "I created this site so people don't have to stress over their profile, but can focus on the fun and excitement of meeting and dating other incredible people of all shapes and sizes."

"After winning America's Next Top Model and the response I received from being plus size, I immediately noticed a void for an honest dating site where real women can celebrate their curves," she adds.  "The women enjoy meeting men who appreciate them, while the men enjoy being with young, fun women."

Whitney Thompson, the plus-sized winner of America's Next Top Model's season 8, is showing off her goods in a new ad celebrating Love Your Body Day, RadarOnline.com has learned.

The model sparked interest after she was named the winner of Tyra Banks' hit show despite not having a smaller, svelte figure that has become the norm in the fashion and entertainment industries.

Thompson, who is an ambassador for the National Eating Disorders Association, said, "Tyra supports women of all sizes as long as they are healthy. Tyra remains a leading figure in the fight for body equality in the fashion industry."
