Coco Rocha Reveals She Was Told To Look Anorexic

Written by BecomeGorgeous.com Beauty Tips

Coco Rocha reveals that she was advised, at the beginning of her career as a model, to look anorexic. The renowned model now stands behind CFDA's new health initiative to promote healthy as being the way to being beautiful. Find out more details next!
Life as a model is amazing and appears to be all glamorous but it seems that not all things are as they appear and Coco Rocha reveals that she was told to look anorexic at the beginning of her career. The stunning super model has been supporting CFDA's new health initiative, a program that tries to promote health as a way to being beautiful.

The Canadian beauty has been joined by model Doutzen Kroes in the attempt to raise awareness of the importance of health, and help your models take the right path to being famous and appreciated for their looks.

Coco Rocha Reveals She Was Told To Look Anorexic
Speaking at the CFDA's new health initiative launch, Coco Rocha spoke of the pressures she had to face a young model, when she was advised to look like an anorexic when she was just 15. Anorexia and bulimia are eating disorders that can affect both men and women and that have horrific results, leading even to death. Coco Rocha told Vogue that:

“I felt pressure early in my career. I was told: ‘The look this year is anorexic. We don’t want you to be anorexic, just look it.’ This message was especially troubling given the fact that I was only fifteen.”

The fashion industry has been blamed for promoting super skinny frame models, encouraging anorexia and bulimia, and after several deaths of models which battled these horrific illnesses, the modelling industry has finally decided to take a stand and opt for healthier looking models that are not all skin and bones. The new organization, which promotes the idea that health is beauty, implemented a new concept, that of having experienced models counsel their younger accessors. Coco Rocha also said that:

“These girls needs to know that they have nutritionists, trainers, designers—an entire industry behind them.”

Coco Rocha has been joined at CFDA's new health initiative launch by Doutzen Kroes who also supports the idea of health as being beautiful.
This is not the first time Coco Rocha has been open about the fact that models are sometimes encouraged to become anorexic, and she made it clear that this is something that she stands against. The Canadian Beauty once told New York Times that:

“How can any person justify an aesthetic that reduces a woman or child to an emaciated skeleton? Is it art? Surely fashion’s aesthetic should enhance and beautify the human form, not destroy it.”

Photos From The Victoria’s Secret 2011 Fashion Show

E! is pointing out that the new crop of Victoria’s Secret models are rather tiny when compared to their predecessors from just a few years ago. While I don’t think that the new models are too thin in comparison to high fashion models, they’re skinnier overall than they used to be. I think they look like they’re healthy though and not emaciated. Still, it would be nice to see women that are more realistically fit instead of aspirationally thin for the most part. Victoria’s Secret is a brand to make everyday women look sexy, not a high fashion brand for the elite. Here’s what E! wrote about it:


Millions of fans (or those who merely enjoy seeing half-naked models in fancy undies) tuned in to watch the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, but while you were drooling in front of your television sets, we had to wonder if some of those angels were drooling for a cheeseburger.
Seriously.

This isn’t exactly new news.

Back in April, Candice Swanepoel and her thin frame made headlines when we learned that her contract with the lingerie company was in jeopardy due to her dramatic weight loss (which she later commented on).

But watching the show, we can’t help but remember the days when models like Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum and Gisele Bündchen took over the catwalk with their curves. Don’t get us wrong, they still made us question our meal choices, but they were also voluptuous. And now, it seems like the wings on these newbies are literally going to whisk them away.

[From E! Online]

I don’t know. I mean Tyra and Heidi are somewhat more curvy than that current models, but Gisele was just as waif-like. I don’t see any curves on her. I looked up the 2006 and 2005 shows, and there were several other women that were maybe a smidgen larger than the current crop of models. They had hips but were still extremely fit. They really worked those outfits too. Here are a few I found. I’m not saying that it’s some big scandal or anything. They’re models, they’re always going to be skinny. I liked it a little better when they looked like they did in 2005. That’s something I can relate to a little more.

Look at Tyra Banks in 2005. I can’t stand her but she looks hot here:

Heidi Klum is super fit and tiny but she’s got some hips on her. Maybe those are just her bones, though. This is from 2008.

Gisele in 2005. She’s about the same as the current models.

6 Warning Signs He's Just Not That Into You

Written by BecomeGorgeous.com Beauty Tips

Love can make you see things in a different light. However it is also important to read through the following review of 6 warning signs he's just not that into you.
Your idea of a harmonious and strong relationship may differ from that of your cutie. However, the secret to take your love bond to the next level is to clarify your intentions and feelings. Some guys have difficulties confessing their plans to put an end to a relationship.

Therefore, take the initiative and save yourself from a painful experience by having the BIG talk. Before confronting him with your suppositions it is wise to read through the following selection of 6 warning signs he's just not that into you.

1. He Encourages You To Meet Other People

This is indeed, one of the most obvious signs that he has different plans with this relationship. Some girls might be blinded by love and would consider this gesture a proof that their boyfriend respects their independence. Think twice before listening to his suggestions!
6 Warning Signs He's Just Not That Into You
2. He Cancels Your Dates In The Last Minute
This is not only a sign of the fact that he's not into you but in can be also considered a disrespectful gesture.

Talk to your boyfriend about this problem and tell him that he'll make things worse if he doesn't confess.


3. He Disregards Your Ideas
You're fond of profound conversations with your boyfriend. However, his answers emanate disrespect and lack of interest.

Keep his gesture in mind and see whether you notice other signs which clearly suggest that he wants to step out of the relationship.


4. He Attends Parties and Dinners Without You
People who are in love want to spend most of their time with their loved one. If your boyfriend attends parties and dinners without you, it means that he's eager to meet other people and he craves for an active social life and not a relationship.

5. He Disappears For 1-2 Days
1-2 days are enough to start suspecting your cutie of double-dealing. The idea behind his gesture was either to make you see that he's just not that into you or he wants to spend some time with other people too. Have a discussion with your boyfriend about his feelings and future plans.

6. He's Not Interested In Getting Intimate With You
Getting intimate is extremely important for guys. However, in the majority of cases girls attribute more essence to this act. If your boyfriend avoids the occasions when you could be together, there are serious problems with your relationship. The 'I'm not in the mood' stuff is a rarity in the case of men.
