Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
That's not MY question, but a point raised by a woman from the National Action Network Against Obesity or something, who says the last thing this country needs is someone Jordin Sparks' size to be a role model for American Girls. What do you guys think?

Re: Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
Gosh, that's terrible. I don't actually think she is overweight - she's a big girl, but if you look at her body, she's not fat. (Anyone would look big next to Ryan Seacrest anyway  )

Agreed. Seriously, Ryan is a midget. He must weight like 90 lbs.

Re: Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
Why wasn't this brought up when Reuben Studdard (sp?) won? I smell a double standard here. Would they have said something is she was too thin? I think she looks good and she looks healthy.

ITA....And what about Randy Jackson sitting there everyweek!
I think looks good. She's 17 yrs old...give the girl some time for her body to change. She's a big girl all around...and her dad is an ex NFL player...I'm sure it's in her genes.

Re: Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
I think Jordin Sparks is one of the most beautiful, talented girls around. For someone to say that she doesn't deserve the AI crown because all they see when they look at her is heart disease and diabetes, is so hurtful and downright unfair that it boggles the mind. If that is the case, I will wait until I lose weight before I pursue any of my dreams. 
Idiots.

Re: Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
How strange. I think Jordin is more tall than big. Ruben was huge when he one and looked even larger the other night. Kelly has always been a chubby girl.
What does any of that have to do with singing. The girl is talented. Leave it at that.

Re: Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
Wow - why don't these people just call themselves the National Pro-Anoerexia Organization?
Jordin is a curvy, healthy GORGEOUS young woman. I think she is a wonderful role model and has a beautiful figure. I hope all those people in their organization catch crabs or something!

Overweight??? Jordin isn't what I would call overweight at all, she is really tall and is proportioned perfectly.

Good point Maathy.
Jordin is not "fat" (I hate that word) by any means. She is a beautiful girl with a normal body. I can't stand it, if you are not a size 2 or lower you are considered "fat". That is disgusting.

Re: Is Jordin Sparks too "fat" to be the new American Idol?
wait this woman works to fight obesity and she's picking on Jordin Sparks...well there's a feel good kinda lady!
i think Jordin is absolutely beautiful and i think she's a great example for young kids. why is america so stuck on appearance???? why cant we just be proud of someone who's accomplished so much at such a young age???
PS - Jordin's dad is an ex NFL football player for the Arizona Cardinals...thats why she's built the way she is.

me too- like what happened to Hillary Duff.
I think that Jordin is just a big girl - not fat at all. She is tall and "big boned" (for lack of a better word).
She is gorgeous.
