She's short so it's definitely possible. She looks great for 50! Fat don't crack lol. And I'm not sure she's not at her peak, or close to it. Check out this news clip of the Real Women Have Curves musical, Carla at 2:03. The underwear scene isn't featured but then this is network news, so... I think the Boston engagement is over (?) and I'm not sure when/if the show is coming to Broadway. Site says "2024" but they don't have a theater booked at this point so I'm a little skeptical. The NY Times review was not great so it could be they're reworking it.

She posted a boob-centric compilation on Instagram the other day: https://www.instagram.com/p/C4rLakrrSx7/?img_index=5 Here's the highlights:

I threw this at bbw-chan (where folks are not known for pulling punches when it comes to slicing up the women they allegedly admire) and the t-shirt thing seems to be the only real scandal anyone can come up with. IMO it's people objecting to an "extra"-ish personality, flimsy SJWness, and general obsessive self-involvement... which is a criticism you could make regarding any of 100,000 social media influencers atm.

Fill a backpack with 200 lbs of sand, carry it around for a day and then get back to us.

This latest video has some yummy glimpses: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1FtODcrKj3/ It's lacking the happy, bubbly energy of her older content (like with a lot of her recent stuff) but then I don't want to be the obnoxious guy telling pretty girls to smile...

So much for losing weight ... I found another version of that image and rezzed it up a bit, and another tiny thumbnail but couldn't do much with it.

She's in the Broadway musical adaptation of Real Women Have Curves, which is in previews. It's a small supporting role so I don't think I'll be shelling out the $250 (or whatever a decent seat at a Broadway show costs these days) to see her. That said, I found these rehearsal glimpses that seem to indicate she hasn't lost much weight, if any (?). This costume sketch is intriguing as well... If anyone saw the movie, her character would be in the scene where the women in the maquiladora take off their clothes as a show of solidarity or something (the plot is fuzzy now). Broadway being Broadway maybe they'll make a dance number out of it...? So maybe I will be supporting live drama this holiday season... PS: In searching for Carla stuff, I didn't realize RWHC was a play even before it was a movie. Quite a treat seeing the various stagings from around the country, which inevitably feature hefty honeys of the lady-next-door variety, Latina and otherwise, often in their underwear.

I'm not a HAES fundamentalist, but you can't judge a book by its cover when it comes to health. I also disagree she looks worse than most BBWs — I'd say the opposite. Statistics say she's in for health problems as she gets into her 40s, and obviously those odds will not be in her favor if she continues to gain. Yet she seems pretty active and engaged which is a big plus (npi) in terms of longevity. I see many, many people out and about who are her size and larger, and many appear to be well into middle age.

LOL Or Liv Tyler fulfilling her destiny as fat Arwen.

This is some ride, boys. I daresay we take for granted how a conventionally gorgeous, albeit plus-sized babe like Tess has swollen up well into supersize status, doing so very much in the public eye and showing off the results avidly, sexily, and with pride. I have a pretty decent imagination and I'm not sure I'd be able to imagine such a scenario as a young FA, or even as an old one. GLP1 drugs may well be the orc armies massing just over the horizon but in the meantime let's appreciate that we're living in a golden age of fatness.

That arm... JFC

With Tess you have to check in weekly.

No no no no no no. There are already too many straight-sized and objectively thin women on Curvage, especially in Fat Celebs. Which is tolerable only because commenters are grooving on the possibility they might get fat. Let Curvage be Curvage. There are a billion all-size BoPo sites on the web for folks who like that kind of thing. I do believe people should be nicer and more thoughtful on the internet in general, but this is a site for objectifying women's bodies. It's never gonna be nice-nice, and that's okay. Ideally this and similar sites are containment zones for creeps (like me) who'd otherwise be splooging up social media and other general interest sites with our fantasies.

Wow, she really does look bigger in candids! (Like most women on the internet, I guess LOL) While we're at it, check out this clip from a 2021 promo video, one of my ATFs images of her. How is it her shoulders are so f'ing HUGE, yet she's still feminine, not linebackerish???

As the blonde in that video points out, with minor celebs (which includes most of the women on this board) Curvage often winds up in their top 10 Google results. Since celebrities at all levels search themselves, I've gotta assume a fair number of them have stumbled across their own threads here. I feel that most of us respect and honor them, but let's face it — even an ultra BoPo woman doesn't necessarily want her individual anatomy highlighted and discussed, much less her weight gain. Our collective fantasy is a utopia where women eat what they want and look like they look as a result and are celebrated for it. The real world, particularly media and entertainment, is pretty much the opposite. I know Curvage is quick and responsive to anyone who requests their stuff be taken down, which I think is about the best they can do. On the other hand, I believe in a free internet where we and every other kink/fetish should have a place where we can unfurl our freak flags. This site is one of them, its context and purpose clearly labeled. Not to mention that celebrities, which these days includes bloggers/vloggers/podcasters/influencers, are by definition public figures. No one deserves to be harassed or libeled, but criticizing, analyzing, and in our case, praising celebs in a pervy way is part of the deal. When your image is your business, you cede full control of it to the universe.
