When 20-year-old Kate Upton made her debut on the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue this year, men wanted her and women wanted to look like her. Well, except for the people at a website called Skinny Gossip. The "pro skinny" site has slammed the model for having “huge thighs, NO waist, big fat floppy boobs." Find out what else the site had to say in the video below!

"Is this what American women are 'striving' for now? The lazy, lardy look? Have we really gotten so fat in this country that Kate is the best we can aim for? Sorry, but: eww! Fashion is supposed to be aspirational—and the kind of people who aspire to look like this shop for clothes at Wal-Mart. She looks like she would work in the back of a motorcycle shop in Nashville and give [a sexual favor] for $25."

Whoa! That's pretty harsh! And a big diss to Wal-Mart! According to Gothamist, Skinny Girl responded to the outrage with the following statement: "As a thin person, I was annoyed by our double-standards around weight. For example, people think nothing of telling a thin woman—to their face, in front of an entire group of people—how skinny they are and even to suggest what they should eat." She also says she's not pro-anorexia, even though she's been posting a "Starving Tip Of The Day" for years. Do you think "Skinny" should shut up? Or is she right about Kate Upton?

I'm so tired of this BS in the media and Hollywood. When they were calling Tyra Banks fat I honestly thought she could have easily carried another 20 pounds and still be smoking hot. They just all of the sudden forgot she is almost 6' tall and at the time 37-38 years old.
I don't want a gal that looks like a teenage boy. These guys would probably consider Ann Coulter fat, or even Emma Roberts or Evan Rachael Wood.

I never really understood Kate Upton's appeal, I think there are way better looking women out there. But please, calling her fat is just ridiculous!

She's beautiful! Even if she was fairly chubby, she'd still be gorgeous! Whoever made that website must be so insecure with themselves. It's not even funny, folks. It's just damn sad. Ugh. Pathetic. :(

I don't see fat when I look at her. As women, haven't we come a long enough way that we can say, "Hey great, they actually put a REAL woman on their magazine, kudos to them!" That's my thought any way.

I want to know if we'll ever be able to quit looking at people based on their size. That goes for men & women alike, but I highly doubt it. Sad.

Trust me, you are far from alone on that one. It's not easy, have to readjust the thoughts we have been fed or feed into our minds every day. I think as long as we try our best & more importantly keep what we think to ourselves rather than hurting someone by staring, name calling, etc. then we are on a positive road. BTW, you've acknowledged it, which is a big step in the right direction. :)

Oh I'm sorry. Maybe I commented on the wrong post? Lol, oops. There was an answer with two or three pictures but the woman didn't look the same in both pictures. But I don't really even know who Kate Upton is so I wasn't sure. Sorry! But while we're here, the picture you posted is Kate Upton?

From a heterosexual woman's POV that girls body is as damn near perfect as it gets.No she's not some muscle bound she-man she looks soft and feminine..We're the same height and I weigh 10 lbs more right now presuming I must be a real moose in their opinion

Did they call Kate Upton 'fat' at the pride parade while driving a Mazda Miata?

If so then I understand.

Kate, if you need a shoulder to cry on come to my place. I have Popsicles.
