Does This American Idol Look Fat?
Jordin Sparks is a tall girl, she's big but her father is a large man, a professional athlete. It's in her genes. I wouldn't describe her as fat. But MeMe Roth would. She runs National Action Against Obesity and this is what she says about Jordin:
"When I look at Jordin I see diabetes, I see heart disease, I see high cholesterol. That's what's so sad about this - she is not the vision of health - she is the vision of unhealth. Her extra weight is a reflection of today's society and a culture where many of our children have compromised health due to unhealthful food choices and inactivity. We have to stop with the 'baby fat,' 'curvy,' 'goddess' euphemisms and own this child’s health crisis."
She says Jordin is not a good role model for kids.
By the way, Roth is 5'6" and 120 lbs.
Roth says Jordin's fans have been making death threats against her.
Nah, she's got a few extra...but not unhealthy, or 'fat' looking at all.
