Lady Gaga is starting a "Body Revolution" -- literally. The Mother Monster has launched a Body Revolution section on her website LittleMonsters.com, meant to "inspire bravery."
Gaga has been under fire recently for gaining an admitted 25 pounds. On the site, the singer posted a picture of herself in her bra and underwear with the caption: "Bulimia and anorexia since I was 15."

Now, she wants fans to join in and "celebrate with us your 'perceived flaws'": "Hey Guys its Gaga," she wrote. "Now that the body revolution has begun, be brave and post a photo of you that celebrates your triumph over insecurities."
In a blog post, Gaga explained the motivation for "Body Revolution": "My weight/loss/gain since I was a child has tormented me. No amount of help has ever healed my pain about it. But you have. My boyfriend [Taylor Kinney] prefers me curvier, when I eat and am healthy and not so worried about my looks, I'm happy. Happier then I've ever been. I am not going to go on a psycho-spree because of scrutiny. This is who I am. And I am proud at any size. And I love you, and want you to be proud in any form you may take as well." Do you think she's sending a great message?

Some of these icons who seem so happy one day put a gun to their heads.
One that particularly struck me a few years ago was Brad Delp, the lead singer for the rock band Boston. At the peak of his career, a respected grandmaster in his field, and engaged to be married to a gorgeous blonde.
How would you like to be the surviving fiance of a guy who'd rather kill himself than marry you?
"And some day soon we'll stop to ponder.
What on earth's this spell we're under.
We made the grade and still we wonder,
who the hell we are"

I love women of all body types, I actually really like Thicker women but that's a preference that I still look beyond.
Society needs to stop with this sick notion of thinking someone is fat when they are actually healthy.
I do have to say good on her for this.
