Former Swimsuit Model Says Thinner Is Better

Easy for YOU to say, you’re Cheryl Tiegs!! The former swimsuit supermodel is 68 and looking more like your mom’s mom than your dream girl but she still has something to say about the beauties that grace the cover of Sports Illustrated. What she’s saying lately is that the “glamorization” of fuller figured girls isn’t healthy.

For the second year in a row the sports magazine is featuring a bathing beauty bigger than a size two and this time on one the covers in the fuller figure size 16 form of 28 year old brunette beauty Ashley Graham.

Tiegs quotes Dr. Oz as suggesting women maintain as less than 35 inch waist and feels anything that celebrates these women is sending the wrong health message to women everywhere. For the record, Ms Graham, who Tiegs admits has a beautiful face, has a 30 inch waist and is well under the Dr. Oz guidelines.

I guess I’ll just have to pick up a copy of the magazine, study it well and decide for myself!
