Rosie Mercado Size 26/28 model - Page 2

PeanutButterfly · 12-12-2010, 01:15 PM

She's stunning!

I loved her interviews on youtube. Its nice to have a model I can identify with.

PewterBunny · 12-12-2010, 02:02 PM

I have 2 things to say...and thank goodness we have somewhere we can state our opinions here...

1. Why is this lovely lady being picked apart? Her boobs are too big, she is too tall, a big round face, lucky she has a pretty face or she wouldn't BE modeling?? COME on, give me AND her a break...suck it up sunshine, how she come to modeling or how she did it in the first place is her very own luck, beauty, talent...who are we to say....?

2. Am I on the same web page as all of you....everywhere I look there are BEAUTIFUL women on here....Gorgeous Men too....all shapes and sizes. We really never have to look very far from our own "community" to find Grand size lovelies right here. You all seem kinda surprised at her beauty....but we have "TONS" pardon the pun of beauty right here.

Just Sayin...

I just thought it was hilariously dumb for someone to say "lucky she has a pretty face or she wouldn't BE modeling"

That´s like saying "You´re lucky you have a thing for numbers or you wouldn´t even be a programmer". That´s what it takes to be a model. You gotta be pretty. And she definitely is, plus she seems very confident in the best possible way. I don´t see anything wrong with her being a successful model.
Plus you´re spot on with pointing out the fact that these forums are filled with beautiful people, I´m still very new to this site and am mesmerizd by it.

Applause. Every once in a while someone breaks through the platitudes and says something sensible. Bravo.

I´ll have to admit I can´t tell whether or not you´re being ironic. Hmm.

Huh? I was being completely serious.

It's come down to this. Irony is now so prevalent that instead of smiley emoticons, the Web needs a graphic that indicates, "I actually meant what I just said."

In retrospect, a simple "+1" on my part probably would have done the trick.

Yea, pretty much. Also, in written communication you don´t have a metalevel (facial expression, emphasis, gestures) so at times it can get confusing, or at least for me it does. I still prefer your answer to a "+1" though

largehipslover · 12-21-2010, 01:32 AM

I really love the 2nd picture a lot. Beside her obvious stunning beauty, the look on her face is really captivating. She is a natural. And kudos for printing her weight and measures black on white, that's just awesome.

That would be hilariously dumb if that was what I'd actually written. But it wasn't.

But, hey -- welcome to the boards!

Here's one post with her comp card, which lists her measurements (even her weight):

http://www.judgmentofparis.com/board...ead.php?t=2000

This is one of the pictures in that thread. She doesn't just shoot heashots! She takes full-body pictures as well - really fashionable ones.

Here are a few most posts about her. This was the first one, where I got introduced to her:

One thing you've got to say, Rosie doesn't try to hide her figure in her shots.

Ever since I saw the posts about her on Judgment of Paris, I've been infatuated with her. And you've met her in person? Wow...lucky duck! Unfortunately I'm nowhere near the West Coast (Central NC) and not exactly available. When I saw the shoots of her in the Old West setting, I was absolutely stunned and captivated all at once. "Powerful beauty" was all I could think about. Rosie is nothing short of jaw-dropping beautiful, and I'd be the proudest guy in the room taking her to a company Christmas party, a movie premiere, home to Mom and Dad, you name it.

Surfrider78 · 01-30-2011, 10:20 AM

This was the first post about Rosie I'd read where it revealed she's not only an entrepreneur, but a single mom of three. As decent as she seems, one must assume there was a husband at one point which makes me wonder how anyone so lucky to have married her would do something or some things stupid enough to lose her. Like think they could do better? C'mon man! If I had her, I'd have a hard time leaving the house to go to work!

MatthewB · 01-30-2011, 10:34 AM

I'm just surprised she's a mother of three, at such a young age; she's absolutely gorgeous, though...

KittyKitten · 01-31-2011, 03:58 PM

Why are some people bugging? The modeling world, plus sized or not, is all about proportionality--proportional face and body. Symmetry. That's how it is.

Anyway, she is a goddess!!! Oh my God, I am floored by her breath-taking beauty!!

I made that comment about her "thin face" not to slam her, but as a criticism of the modeling industry, which would probably not accept her if she had a face proportionate to her body.

I went to her facebook page (the "public figure" page) and she does have quite a lot of photos of just her face -- clearly she can make money from neck-up only shots (and why shouldn't she? She has a gorgeous face).

I bring this up because it's an interesting and sometimes controversial topic among fat women: is the fat female body more acceptable if there is an unusually slim face accompanying it?

Just something to think about.

I see what you mean about faces. Many times that is the part us women of size loathe the most-- the double chin or full face. It is definetly a very controversial topic.

The Orange Mage · 01-31-2011, 06:20 PM

Yep, the kind of curves, rolls, lumps, bumps, etc. that most women her size tend to have simply aren't seen as any kind of positive, even in a place like this, let alone the modeling world OR the general public.

One of the "Taboo" programs yesterday was on Fatties. It featured a Dimensions get together, and the Miss Plus Size Contest.

On this one Rosie Mercado was not the winner, but she was strikingly beautiful as were many of the ladies completing. However, Rosie's looks had a compelling quality on camera that was unique.

Yes, she has a beautiful face as well.

Mabus · 03-23-2011, 03:24 AM

I thought it would be important to note that while Ms. Mercado is a very beautiful woman and an excellent example of plus-size beauty she is not a supporter of size acceptance and is in fact a member of and spokesperson for a weight-loss group.

I don't know if this has any bearing on the discussion here but I thought it was important to point out.

I don't see where she's promoting a weight loss group, per se.

Her message is not really that clear, but she seems to sort of be rambling on about her "personal demons in overcoming her body image issues and her desire to embrace personal health and wellness as opposed to beating herself up" journey...or something.
