Buy Walking VideosFat Chance: A Beauty Pageant For The Fabulous and Thick
I hadn’t heard of Fat Chance until I found this review from Rudd’s Sound Bites. Mo’Nique is sponsoring a beauty pagent for fabulous and thick women. I think it’s absolutely wonderful!
Stephanie believes that the show is not quite comfortable in its skin, but it has moments that are inspiring:
“There is one contestant, the African-American security guard Tiffany Jones, who does not don a wig to cover her short blond cut. MoNique says she couldn’t allow Tiffany to cover up her own beauty, and Tiffany answers that she is thrilled not to have to hide her hair or tattoos to be beautiful.”
If you missed the show, you can see clips from it on Oxygen Network’s official website for the show:
For more information about Mo’Nique and her sassy attitude, see her official website:
Remember, loving yourself just the way you are is the first step toward living a healthy life. Shows like Fat Chance are a way to learn to love yourself and be able to commit to living a healthier and stronger life.

I don’t get basic cable tv out of choice but I love the idea of this beauty pagent even though I lost the weight. I think beauty comes in all sizes.

Oh wow, that’s an unfortunate tagline! In British English “thick” almostly exclusively means “stupid”.

Hi I am a mother of 3. I am a Nursing student, and I work as well. I was once small, but I am 5″7 and 183lbs. I dont cosider myself fat but thick you know, and to think about it I love my weight I would not change it. If you think about it men dont want the skinny girls any more, they are played out. Not bashing them at all cause I dont hate, we are beautiful women inside and out just floss yourself in a sexy and saficated way. I mean in dressing and hair and your sense of style, we do have stlye too thats the main key look good and love yourself no matter what size you are. I love Monique and her role on us because she sure have enbrassed me throughout life. Thank you and I hope I can meet you one day.
