Something to Chirp About: Around the Town Blogger Style Competition

The weekend is over, but it was s super good one!  Not only did the Seahawks and their 12 year old quarterback win the Super Bowl(jk), but Plus Positivity had a blogger style competition at Ashley Stewards in Cumberland mall. 

If you haven't looked at their site yet, please do so!  This is a very positive and supportive organization focusing on the Plus Size community. 


 
Here are the bloggers standing with the beautiful and talented Nikki Gilbert.  At the event, the bloggers were given multiple style challenges to dress models. At each round one or more bloggers were eliminated until there was just one standing.

Kelly Price: Too Fat for Fame Casting Call

Hey CurvieBirdies.  Ya’ll know I love everything curvie and fabulous, so here is something I just came across.  We all know and love Kelly Price.  Well she is holding a casting for a new unscripted reality show showcasing talents of CurvieBirdies!!  She knows from experience how hard it can be to break into the business when you are not the ideal size.

Remember Kelly Price was with Bad Boys before she got with R. Kelly to produce her solo album.  She said that Diddy thought she was too big, so she song on the background of many of Bad Boys greatest hits.  So now she is giving others the chance to show the world that talent can come and all sizes.

Something to Chirp About: Trisha Yearwood Weight Loss!

Happy Friday Curviebirdies!!!!!  I know that it is not the best time in our country, so my prayers go out to all those in Boston and victims of the tragic events from Monday.

Well, I wanted to talk about one of my favorite CurvieBirdies Ms. Trisha Yearwood.  This chick has lost over 30lbs and looks amazing.  She says that she is not skinny, but she is happy!  Well so are we Trisha!





Doesn't she look great?  I've always thought that Trisha was pretty, and I think she is goregous at any weight.  So congrads again Ms. Lady!!!!
