We here at Cheshire Industries cannot abide
bullies, willful stupidity, or just plain impoliteness. After watching a
recent episode of Celebrity Undercover Boss featuring the curvaceous
Beauty Ashley Graham, I was particularly outraged by a certain person's
crude and completely unnaceptable behaviour towards her and her equally
curvaceous companion, Helei Amini (See Blog #22: The Awesomeness of
Ashley Graham).
In brief: In the June 2018 episode of Celebrity Undercover Boss featuring Ashley Graham, the VP of
Operations at DAS Modeling Agency decided that he would show what an
unbelievable jackass he could be by turning away a disguised Ashley
Graham because, he said, giving measurements to girls of "her kind"
(that is to say, curvy or "big" girls) was a waste of his time and
money.
Aside from his inevitable embarrassment when he discovers
that he turned away Ashley-frakking-Graham, a girl with the kinds of
dangerous curves Lamborghinis dream of, I was so disgusted by his
treatment of her and Helei Amini that I wanted to send my flying monkey
friends from Flying Face-Humpers Anonymous to go see him. Sure, they'd
fall off the wagon, but if anyone deserves to be face-humped by neurotic
monkeys, it's that twatwaffle.
Now, while it is absolutely
commendable that neither of these Beautiful women gave that boorish
idiot a second thought, I'm not so forgiving. His behaviour is simply
not acceptable. Luckily for him, I don't think it'd be ethical to enable
my simian friends at FFHA to fall off the wagon just to satisfy my own
sense of moral outrage, especially when they've all been doing so well lately. Le Sigh...
While watching the show, I wondered
idly what the "DAS" in DAS Modeling Agency stands for. Since I cannot in
good conscious arrange the frantic face-humping pelvic escapades he
deserves, I've been amusing myself coming up with meanings for the
company's name. The best one I came up with so far is:
It should_stand for "Digging All Sizes," but clearly they're Dumb As Shit.
If anyone else has any ideas, I'd be happy to hear them!
Seriously,
though, people. What the frak is wrong with this world? Why do people
think it is acceptable to be outrageous dicks to other people? In an era
where you can communicate with literally the entire world in an
instant, how can we as human beings still be so narrow sighted that
something as insignificant as a person's weight or their skin colour or
their sexual preferences can dictate how we treat them?
It's not
right. If everyone put as much time in working out the problems of the
world as they did in creating vicious and reprehensibly cruel memes
about other people they don't even know, we wouldn't have nearly as
frakked up a world as we do now.
So I'm throwing down the
gauntlet. If you're reading this, I challenge you to go out of your way
to do something nice today for a complete stranger. Do something to
counteract this epidemic of nastiness in the world. And don't retweet
shitty, abusive messages, memes, blogs, or other posts; don't give those
nasties the fuel to spread their misery. If you can, delete those kinds
of bilge whenever you find them (Ethical hackers, I'm talking to you!).
If
I were in the Freeworld with you, I swear I'd have no reservations
about dedicating my life to a campaign of online and Freeworld promotion
of the kinds of positive messages that people like Ashley Graham, Lizzy
Howell, Alexa Phelese, Helei Amini, and others like them have already
begun to spread. I'd do it on my own if I had to, even if nobody else
was helping me. But I know I'm not the only one that feels this way. I
can't be.
It's no enough to feel outraged by hatred and bullies, my friends. You have voices, use them. DO something!

one another; the dream of a time when people will put more time into
encouraging each other than being cruel; and your local chapter of

BLOG #22: THE AWESOMENESS OF ASHLEY GRAHAM
Last week while I was flipping channels, I came
across something that really blew me away, and I wanted to share it with
all of you.
There's this show that I have only ever heard about called _Celebrity Undercover Boss._ Apparently, these celebrity types dress up and infiltrate the lives of other people to see what they're actually like. I used to think that part of the allure for celebrities was to see how everyday people would treat them if they didn't know they were celebrities. But that's another Blog.
As a rule, I don't really watch a lot of reality shows. Usually it seems to be an excuse for attention seeking idiots to try to outdo each other in being idiots. There are a few exceptions, but not many. This episode was definitely an exception.
In this episode, Ashley Graham -- an amazingly gorgeous supermodel with curves to die for -- had gone undercover and met with three different people. I am sorry to say I missed the first segment. The second segment, however, featured a wonderful woman named Helei Amini: a plus-sized model originally from Afghanistan who grew up in Fargo, North Dakota. Aside from the fact that Helei is a frakking knockout, she was also sweet as sugar and as personable as a person can be. She and Ashley (going by the name of Morgan) met at a place called DAS Modeling Agency. Ashely was pretending to be new to modeling and to have no idea what to do. Helei immediately began talking to Ashley about the process, and they discussed Helei's background, how she got into modeling, etc. The two of them were the only curvy girls in the room, and I was pretty disgusted by the looks the other "conventional-sized" models gave them.
(I would like to take a moment to address any "conventional-sized" model-types who might read this: it doesn't matter how Beautiful you may be, when you give shitty_ "what-the hell-is-that-whale-doing-in-here?" looks to big girls who walk into the same modeling agency you happen to be in, you're not just being uglier than a Vogon's backside, you're also being a galactic-scale bitch as well)
The two of them get called in, and the woman who initially speaks to them is nice enough and offers to get Ashley's measurements. When she does, this guy -- the VP of Operations, who was apparently running the place -- started giving the nice woman a cup full of crap over her even giving these two curvy girls the time of day! When Ashley asks him if everything is okay, he proceeds to tell her in the shittiest possible way that he does not want them wasting his time.
Okay, I grok. I would never begrudge a person for their preferences, especially when you're running a business. By that I mean if your agency focuses on "conventional" looks, that's your choice (and, in my exalted opinion, your loss); but at least have the decency to not be a complete dickwad twatwaffle about it! There is no excuse for talking to these two like they're something foul that you're scraping off your boot.
Never mind that idiot. Ashley and her new friend leave and go eat, where, to her new friend's credit, she reveals that she doesn't ever let people like this VP douche-nozzle get under her skin.
In the next segment, I was really happy to see that Askley Graham was going to meet a girl all of you have probably seen on the Internet long before I saw her on an AT&T commercial: Lizzy Howell, a young girl of size who can pirouette like any size 2 I've ever seen! During that segment, this girl helps Ashley in a dance class (even lending her tights and a bra!). Ballet is this Beautiful young girl's life, and she definitely has the skill to make it. All Lizzy needs is someone to give her that chance, and you'll see her rocket to ballet superstardom!
The best part of this entire segment was that Lizzy seemed completely oblivious to the monumentally positive message her video had on girls all over the world. To her, she was just doing what she always does, every day. She wasn't trying to make a statement, or send a message; she just Loves to dance, and that's all she was doing. It was the world that made her video go viral, because it was the world that took Lizzy's dance video to heart and saw in it a message and an inspiration for anyone who has ever been uncomfortable with their body. To her, though, it was just another day of dance class. I Love that!
At the end of the show, Ashley Graham revealed herself to her three subjects and then proceeded to help each them in the way they needed most. Each of the three people whose lives she infiltrated have been changed forever, and the message she instilled with this episode is that good things do happen to good people.
I absolutely adore what Ashley Graham did for these three. Anyone who reads this Blog needs to search out the Ashley Graham episode of Celebrity Undercover Boss and watch it.
Finally, though I didn't see the first segment, the woman Ashley helps is named Alexa Phelese; she is the founder of the nonprofit organization Every Body Deserves Love. Ashley Graham helped her get it a much needed boost.
You have got to check out her website and spread the word to your friends:

(Alexa, I you're reading this, I'm really sorry I didn't catch the first part of this episode. I am waiting for the repeat, since I don't have a TiVo! ^_^)
As for DAS Modeling Agency's VP of Operations, once you've seen the episode, I am sure you will want to give him a piece of your mind. Give him a piece of mine, too!
Seriously, Cats & Kittens and Truly Hoopy Froods, you need to see this episode.
