"That's not our demographic."

My name is Nancy Upton. I'm a size 12 and wanted to show American Apparel my fresh face (and full figure). My good friend Shannon Skloss came over to take some "booty-ful" photos of me...but I just couldn't stop eating.

I came in first place in the AA 'Next BIG Thing' contest, but won't be modeling for the company any time soon.

You can find me on Twitter: @Nancyupton
Or email: nancyupton@gmail.com
Words. Cannot. Even. Brain. Oof. I am overwhelmed. I will sleep and try to be more coherent tomorrow. I will also try to gather up another batch of links and commentary so that everyone can have a good cross-section of what people are saying. For now, thank you so much for your support, and your EXCELLENT debate. I’m so happy to see people discussing concepts of acceptance and beauty. People are making incredible and astute points about the dialogue that is opening up.  Somebody even started a poll about the effectiveness of my project! You can vote yay or nay here. Much, much, much love to all y’all.
