[QUOTE="Aries, post: 3759814, member: 44328"] That's one way to take it. But I don't think she's glorifying obesity... I think she's objecting to the over emphasis on body image that says you have no value if you don't fit the super-model skinny body type that is projected on TV and in music videos as being "attractive". Ironically, that is the tone I get from this thread. This video is SO much better than the original because it has beautiful thin girls instead of that fat girl who originally did it. Talent wise? The fat girl wrote it. That's the irony. Meghan Trainor could hardly be described as "obese", her BMI, at least as published and probably based on height/weight around the time her video was produced that has caused people to conclude she can't sing, was around 25. PMJ is a very talented group, and the girls in it are beautiful. Meghan Trainor is also very talented, and very cute, and not nearly as fat as you'd think if everything you know about her is in this thread. Which video either of us prefers is irrelevant, people have different tastes. [/QUOTE]
