Plus-size Model Ashley Graham Talks About 'Hunger Games' Star Jennifer Lawrence's Body, Says 'She's Tiny'

Jan 15, 2015 01:24 PM EST | By Staff Reporter

Plus-size model Ashley Graham had something to say about how Hollywood views how models' bodies should be.

Graham had posed for a number of fashion magazines, which included both "Vogue"and "Elle." She recently dished that Jennifer Lawrence's body was gorgeous but not that full.

According to 27-year-old Graham, "Jennifer Lawrence is the media's poster girl for curves - she's tiny." She then continued, "There needs to be more education in schools, because that's where eating disorders start. It's not just about being healthy; it's also about loving who you are."

Of course, the plus-size model loves who she is. And what's not to love? She has a pretty good reason as she starred in Lane Bryant's television commercial back in 2010. The really sexy clip featured the model leaving a big estate wearing nothing but a trench coat as well as lace underwear. However, numerous audiences had flocked to watch YouTube to watch the clip before its mandatory post 8 p.m. airtime. The commercial received more than 800,000 views and in December 2012, she was featured on two billboards in New York for Lane Bryant.

After her discovery, she did modeling gigs and she had personally committed herself to go around high schools in the country to give talks to teens about the importance of body acceptance. Graham continued to tell the magazine, "It doesn't matter if you're a size 2 or 22. You can be healthy as long as you're taking care of your body, working out, and telling yourself 'I love you' instead of taking in the negativity of beauty standards."

Ashley Graham is an American plus-size model from Lincoln, Nebraska and is best known as a lingerie model for Lane Bryant, which is a plus-size clothing store. She had appeared on several publications such as "Harper's Bazaar," "Glamour," and "Latina" as well as several Levi's campaigns.
