Kelly Osbourne launches clothing line

I don't consider this news especially important, but I did want to post it here because of the statement by Osbourne that's quoted with the article: "Kelly, who refuses to diet, work out or take diet pills, is considered by many a role model for full-figured girls.......“I’m not going to starve myself or work out. I’m not going to take diet pills. I don’t even count calories. That’s why I didn’t talk to mum (Sharon Osbourne) for two weeks after I found out she was thinking of having cosmetic surgery to make her look thinner.” " I know Kelly is controversial, and unfortunately, she isn't always quite so size-positive, but I love her attitude in this piece. She sounds so *free*, like Christina Schmidt did in her recent interview. I hope Kelly's words help more plus-size girls achieve this kind of liberation, and learn to love themselves, just the way they are. I sure wish I'd had this kind of attitude when I was younger.
