      People like you are disgusting. Do you think being slim makes a person healthy? Everyone metabolism is different. One person can be tiny and eat a whole cow? It's milk and icecream and their body burns it naturally. No exercise no diet. Another person can just as much as smell it and they gain weight. Who gives you the right to judge. I've seen fit people get heart attack, people who run the track every day get heart attack and obese people get the same thing. The slim person is not slim on his own will and many obese persons are not that way by choice. Don't know the young lady personally but I've seen her in ballet and dance programs and she can do what I cannot do at half her size. So if you can't congratulate her just go in the corner.

      Well done Miss Charles

      Thanks for making sense. Don't forget too the beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Makeup can wash off and the eye lashes taken off and underneath you find a ugly person devil the inside. People like the person who made the nasty comment is who make young people do what Miss America did the other day because of the pressure to be perfect for others.

      Some people body does retain alot of water too

      Young lady do what make you happy. I'm glad you won the oageant

      You are the lowest of low. You make me sick with your comment. It seems you are a hater. May God help you, because there is a place for people like you. If you have nothing good to say, just keep your trap shut and say nothing at all

      Your remarks are not funny, and certainly insensitive. Stop fat shaming. It could happen to you. There are persons who do all the right things to be healthy and I know for a fact that this young lady follow a healthy lifestyle. Has this thought ever occurred to you? There are things in the food, water, skin and hair products, the chemicals in the air that affect the hormones in our bodies differently and it is increasing, even childhood vaccinations! Do your research! One particular ingredient is high fructose corn syrup which is in everything and unavoidable, and is the culprit to obesity. Truly there are some full and curvy persons who are more energetic than I am and I envy them for that. This pageant is a civilized one and at the very least provides positive opportunities for those curvy persons to show that they have talent and should not keep it hidden because of their size! Funny, please take a break from negativity !!!!

    A big congratulations to you girlll. My opinion, she should sign up with a plus size model agency. She would be good in their ADS. Again, congratulations, you represent well. Went to Texas and won the crown.

      A lot of modeling agencies hires plus size models. Do your research. Sad the talents we have in the BVI have to get the recognition they deserve outside of the BVI. Then, you want to swoop up bragging rights.
