What's Next For Whitney?

TopModel_flypaper_blog_bluefly.jpg Ah, the complicated business of being a "plus-sized" model who isn't plus-sized at all. Since her surprising "Top Model" victory last week, Whitney is making the media rounds, including talking to People magazine. The mag reports that Whit is a size 10 at most (already too small for most plus-sized work) and discusses rumors that she was asked to pack on some lbs for the show (which the show denies). So folks, what we have here is a gorgeous, thinner-than-the-average-but-not-thin-enough woman who will have to decide: Does she want to stay gorgeous and true to herself, but remain in modeling limbo? Or drop 30 lbs and be the hottest thing at Paris fashion week in the spring? Whatever she chooses, I'd love to see her in a pleated, summer white dress with some adorable black platform sandals.

When I watched the show I thought she was to small to be plus size. I'm starting to believe that they don't pick girls who really have a shot at becoming editorial/runway models.
