Robyn Lawley has been signed for Ralph Lauren as their first plus-size model. She’s also been Australian Vogue‘s first “plus-size” covergirl, and the face – and body – of Boux Avenue, a British lingerie line.
But – as Hurricane Vanessa says:
Hang on.
Excuse me.
SIZE 12?
Plus size?
How?
How can, if the average size of an US and UK woman is a UK Size 16, how can I size 12 be PLUS?
Based on my not very good maths, I would say that Robyn, like anyone under the (inter) national average (of developed countries for e.g.) would logically, be a minus size.
But then I am not very good at maths.
Or fashion.
Here’s an entire gallery of the very gorgeous Robyn:
Paris Hilton, who is known for the odd slip of the tongue, seems to have outdone herself this time. The socialite has been caught on tape calling gay men “disgusting” and suggesting they “probably have AIDS.”
Celebrity website RadarOnline obtained the audio from a taxi ride Hilton took when she was in New York earlier this month for fashion week. Paris was talking to her friend, an openly gay male model, about the smartphone app Grindr, and the taxi driver recorded the conversation.
Her friend said: ”Say I log into Grindr, someone that’s on Grindr can be in that building and it tells you all the locations of where they are and you can be like ‘Yo, you wanna f**k?’ and he might be on like, the sixth floor.”
Paris then said: “Ewww. Ewww. To get f**ked? Gay guys are the horniest people in the world. They’re disgusting. Dude, most of them probably have AIDS.”
She then went on to say she would be “scared” if she was a gay man. “You’ll like, die of AIDS.”
A spokesman for Hilton defended the comments saying they were taken out of context and that she is a “huge supporter of the gay community.”
Yep. We can tell.
One Direction has finally released their new video – much to the delight of teenyboppers all over the world. You can go here to watch it. And if you don’t understand what the fuss is all about, you can read more about them here. The office is largely torn between complete obsession and disdain.
Flick through our gallery of teen crushes and tell us yours…

Hey, you forgot the Two Coreys!
Had a massive crush on Corey Haim, especially after The Lost Boys.
If the average model is size 6 (Aus) and Robyn is size 12 then yes, she is plus size. She is actually plus 6 sizes (or plus 3 sizes depending on how you count it).
I don't think the 'plus' has anything to do with average women. It is more a comparison to the average model.
