5'9 115 pounds runway, of course the face of an alien but a seven digit paycheck isn't it strange? how media can obsess over someone who looks like they're from outer space we see them as an object they are supposed to walk and look pretty nothing more, nothing less we never wonder how many hours they had to workout in order to get that thin and still remain healthy how many rejections they got "face is too round" "drop 10 pounds then we'll talk" "learn how to walk first" they are pushed to their limits so let's treat them as more than just an object because they're real people too please realize that
