Famous FAs?

[TJF]

Great question! Thank you.

About

King George I of Great Britain[/u]???, formerly Prince of Hanover (1660-1727). When he became king of Great Britain and moved to London he took along with him countess Charlotte Sophia von Platen-Hallermund-Kielmansegg who, according to the contemporary descriptions, was definitely a SSBBW and was nicknamed 'the elephant'. The general opinion was (and is) that the countess was King George's lover, but some historians and genealogists maintain that she was the king's half-sister.


here is a picture of Charlotta:

OK, I am not a fan of Star Trek, I know who's Nimoy and and who's Spock, but that's all.

Why 'of course'?

I just thought of another one: President Andrew Jackson, of whose wife Rachel a journalist (rather unkindly) wrote: "She goes to show how far the human skin will stretch."

Hmmm, I'm not so sure that a BBW wife would qualify president Jackson as an FA. We know well that in the past very often marriages were based on purely social and economic reasons. Love and attraction, personal and/or sexual, were just the last of the reason for marrying someone. A lover, instead, was chosen almost only because of attraction, so a BBW mistress would suggest that a person was probably an FA.

As far as president Jackson is concerned, if there is no other evidence I would rather suspend judgement

It depends on one's take of what it means to be an FA. *Shrugs*

George I of England had two mistresses. One was thin and the other was fat. I don't know if you could call anyone who slept with George IV a FFA since he was royalty.

[AK_the_FA]

I think we should add Bon Scott to the list, the late lead singer from ACDC.

There's a song called Whole Lotta Rosie and the words go something like this:

Wanna tell you a story
'Bout a woman I know
When it comes to lovin'
Oh she steals the show
She ain't exactly pretty
Ain't exactly small
Forty-two, thirty-nine, fifty-six
You could say she's got it alllll!

Never had a woman
Never had a woman like you
Doing all the things
Doing all the things you do
Ain't no fairy story
Ain't no skin and bone
But you give it all you got
Weighing in at nineteen stone
CHORUS:
You're a whole lotta woman
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
And you're a whole lotta woman
Oh honey you can do it
Do it to me all night long
Only wanna turn
Only wanna turn me on
All through the night time
And right around the clock
To my surprise
Rosie never stops
CHORUS

Its been said that Bon Scott liked two things in life: large women and Jack Daniels. Hard to argue with those choices

Wrong, wrong, wrong, I correct myself. I checked about Rachel Jackson and I saw that, at least for president Jackson, it was definitely a marriage based on attraction and love. President Jackson was one of us!!!

Do you know, I believe you're right! I think Andrew Jackson WAS of Scottish descent!

Don't forget Billie Piper from Dr. Who. She 'came out' on Top Gear and said she likes men with "a bit of a belly".

[Observer]

Regarding Countess Sophia, this Wikipedia article seems to establish that she was George's half-sister and a widow, but was defiinitely both a BBW and a force to be reckoned with in King George's court.

Greetings, my fellow FA's

First off, my apologies for reviving a thread that apparently stopped a few months ago, but I 've found an interesting quote that I wanted to share with you.

In one of the books I used for my studies I found a quote from the Dutch historian A.Th. van Deurssen, an expert on the Golden Century (the 17th century, which was a period of great cultural, economic and military achievements for the Netherlands). In his work "Het kopergeld van de Gouden Eeuw II: volkscultuur" he discusses the beauty ideals of those days. He refers to two poets, Jacob Roemer Vischer and Jacob Cats, and their views on fat women (Cats is considered one of the greatest Dutch poets: in the 17th century one of his books was the second most popular book after the Bible).

The quote (translated by yours truly) reads as follows:
"For Roemer Vischer it is only the common man who likes round shapes. He himself mocks broad-legged Waterlandish farmer's wives who 'fill a barrel with buttcheeks, a tub with breasts'. But his own daughter Anna exhibited the figure admired by Cats, and that is how most Hollanders preferred it."

So, according to this historian not only one of my country's greatest poets is an FA, but apparently most Dutchman of his times were as well. My ancestors sure knew what beauty was!

I suspect that Chelsea Handler is a FA. If you watch her show regularly she does express it....but then she'll do a backhanded fat joke, so I never know for sure.

[bigmac]

You can add George Lopez to the list. His wife is a BBW (see photo below) and according to a reliable source he's had at least one fat mistress (a young comedian he mentored at an LA club).

[Agent 007]

And let's not forget Jamie Foxx, who said in an interview that he likes plus-size women.

Though I watch her show infrequently I still get the idea that Chelsea throws jokes at everyone and thing so fat gets its time, too. I found this pic with her boyfriend and it seems like he might have a belly under all that chic black clothing.

Here is S.African President Zuma with his 3 wifes
He must be the president of all FAs.
Ok, 3 wifes are not my thing, one is enough for me.

John Le Mesurier and Hattie jacques were married, they are a UK couple from many films and tv progrmans.... Hattie jacques most well known for being in alot of Carry on films. Although they both are dead now and split up in 1965 because Hattie had an affair, I do think he was deffently an FA...
