I stand corrected. Rachel Hunter is NOT "pro larger models"

In my post, "Final female contestant in reality show "Make me a supermodel" is a size 12", I reported that contestant Jen Hunter, size 12 (UK) which is size 8 (US) was brandied by the judges as being "too fat" to be a supermodel. There were many "Hunters" involved in the Daily Mail article and I got them confused. There was Jen Hunter (contestant), Rachel Hunter (judge) and Fiona Hunter (nutritionist).

Well, me with my rosy glasses applauded judge Rachel Hunter for reprimanding the other judge Tandy Anderson for saying that Jen was too fat with her stocky legs. I read the article incorrectly, and some of my lovely readers made note in the comments. It's okay, so I investigated deeper, and yes they are correct. Rachel Hunter thinks that Jen is too zaftig (I'll be polite) to be a supermodel.

I couldn't find video of Rachel actually making the comments to Jen. From what I gathered, the event occurred on the November 10th episode (or sometime that week as they did several episodes a week). If you go to the official site of Make me a supermodel, you will see video clips and synopsis of the show, and in episode 12, Rachel does say to the affect, "I know people will boo about this but...." and then she goes on about how Jen is too big and that she isn't working hard enough to get trim. My rose colored glasses were smashed, and I am brought back to the harsh reality. Oh well! I can still dream.

I had never seen the show because it's in the UK, but from watching the video clips on their website, I was quite appalled by some of the things they had these model wanna-bes do. I can say that the only saving grace of this show was that the audience got to vote on who stayed and who had to leave. And doesn't that say something? The judges would have kicked Jen off from the very beginning if they had their way, but the viewers kept her on until she was the last woman standing. The audience loved Jen's looks so maybe future advertisers can learn something from this. Check out Jen's gallery. I don't see where she is fat at all.
