Miss Independent.

The past few months two magazine pictures have been all over the news. Those obviously being the Self cover image of Kelly Clarkson and the Glamour image of model Lizzi Miller.

Lizzi Miller's Belly Shot

Some are up in arms at the fact that the magazines would photoshop or in Lizzi's case wouldn't photoshop the pictures. I understand why Self photoshopped Kelly, but feel as though they may have gone to far. Healthy is beautiful no matter what the size and magazine's should embrace it, much like Glamour decided too. However at the same time, I don't think that every once in a blue moon a magazine should come out and say "HEY! Look its a normal girl, with a belly!". We need to find a normal happy medium, as Ellen Degeneres would say. "Am I right ladies?".

I started looking into plus sized models after these two pictures came out, because I really only seemed to know about Mia Tyler and Emme. Here are a few I would love to see put in magazine spreads more often.

Amy Lemons- Size 6

Kate Dillon- Size 18

Ashley Graham- Size 16

Crystal Renn- Size 12/14

**Models sizing may be a little off, but that's the sizes I found.**
