Glamour's Plus-Sized Model

A single photo used for an article on self confidence in September's issue of Glamour magazine has caused a buzz in the modeling world. Meet Lizzi Miller: a 20-year-old, 180-pound, 5-foot-11 bombshell whose size 12-to-14 body matches that of the average American female. After she was captured smiling and showing a bit of a tummy, the Glamour website was immediately overrun with positive comments, inspiring editor-in-chief Cindi Leive to reconsider the models shown in the magazine's pages.

WATCH as Lizzi tells The Today Show's Matt Lauer, "I'm not saying that a size 2 isn't normal...but my normal is this."

    I've always been a fan of plus-size models! There's a great site with many images of plus-size models here:

    They're all gorgeous. The site's forum also has thought-provoking discussions about body image and the media.
