Популярната блогърка Анна О’Брайън, която се прочу като плюс сайз модел, е била изгонена от хотел, заради фотосесия, която искала да заснеме. Американката с наднормено тегло била договорила всичко с ръководството на хотела в Лас Вегас, включително фактът, че става дума за фотосесия по бански.
The past week has been a rollercoaster. It’s been a series of ups and downs and omgs and wtfs and “I don’t know if I can do this”-es. I have felt grateful and scared and sad and elated and confused. It’s been a lot. I have learned one thing from this experience. It doesn’t necessarily get easier, you simply get stronger. Life will always find new ways to try us. We must in turn find new ways to believe in ourselves. It’s that simple really. Celebrate your wins, learn from your losses and above all love the person you are today so you can become the person you need to be tomorrow. #selflove #confidence #plussize #thoughts #grow #inspiration 📸 @larabellenewyork

В един момент, на мястото на снимките дошла охраната и Анна била помолена да се облече. Причината за това бил видът на модела и по-конкретно нейните извънгабаритни телеса, които тя гордо била извадила на показ, позирайки пред обектива само по бански костюм от 2 части. Тази гледка притеснявала посетителите.
I find it ironic that I’ve taken photos in swimsuits all over the world and the one place I was told to cover up was Las Vegas. Sure, thin girls in thongs and pasties are A OK but a plus girl in a full coverage suit, trying to take an epic editorial shot- now that’s just too much. Jokes on them though, I’d already gotten the perfect photo. They can’t erase this happened. I’m learning as I push myself to do more editorial type concepts, the push back is greater. But that’s why I push. It’s more than just a girl in the city of sin in a bikini, It’s a statement. We will be seen. We’re not hiding anymore. And we’re going to wear whatever we want, wherever we want. Not just in Vegas. EVERYWHERE. Change is coming; the question is are you going to stand in the way or help us push through?

Отвратена от постъпката на охранителите в хотела, Анна описва всичко в своя Instagram профила @glitterandlazers.
"Намирам за ироничен фактът, че съм позирала по бански на много фотосесии, на най-различни места по света, а единственото място, на което ме накараха да се прикрия, беше Лас Вегас. Разбира се, фините момичета по прашки или изрязани горнища, които скриват само зърната им, са ОК, но когато се появи дебело момиче с цял бански костюм, опитващо се да направи епичен кадър за списание — това вече е прекалено", сподели с последователите си в мрежата Анна.
I’m just going to keep posting Miami pictures until I dig out of the massive hole of writing that I keep chipping away at and some how miraculously only seems to grow in size. Maybe if I tunnel long enough I’ll end up with a free trip to China. However I would have to tunnel straight through boiling hot lava, endure insane amounts of pressure from colliding molecules and survive breathing toxic gas. But hey, I’ve ridden the New York subway during rush hour in the middle of summer, on a car with no AC. I ain’t scared of nothing. #miami #writerslife #justkeepswimming #plussize #poolside 📸 @larabellenewyork

Don’t stop living your life to the fullest. Don’t cower. Don’t hide. Remember those who speak to stop you, choose to spend their precious time standing in the way of others versus enjoying what this world has to offer. They try to stop you from living, because they themselves are afraid to live. 📸 @larabellenewyork #bikini #miami #rainbow #plussize #bodypositive #livelife

Current status: drinks with friends. Taking the night off to just be normal. All of this attention is awesome, but it’s also super overwhelming. I’m still learning how to process it all. Thank you for being part of this adventure- it’s only scary because it’s worth it. 📸 @larabellenewyork #plussize #swimsuit #vegas #wanderlust #waterfall #reality

Според плюс сайз моделът случката разкрива брутална дискриминация, свързана с начина, по който изглежда.
Some people have been hurt so much that that they mistake cruel words with kind ones. I try to remember this when someone says something nasty. Someone at some point in their life taught them that being cruel, was actually kind. That insults make people better. That if you hurt someone enough they will obey you. That hurt person, the brute of this scientifically disproven belief, is likely the one leaving a rude comment on my page right now. This has become their truth. It’s a very lonely truth. It doesn’t make their actions right. It doesn’t take away their responsibility for what they say. However, it might just allow you to have compassion for someone who seems a bit heartless. They’re that way because someone taught them that only perfection and obedience matters. That empathy is weak, friendship is useless and love is worthless. #ootd #festivalfashion #plussize #wanderlust #inspiration #positivevibes #nyc #highline 📸 @larabellenewyork

Анна О'Брайън е известен плюс сайз модел и блогър от Ню Йорк. Тя следва философията, че човек трябва да се обича такъв какъвто е, дори и да е дебел. Преди време тя стана лице на марката спортни дрехи Academy Sports and Outdoors. Компанията искаше да подкрепи и да стимулира всички жени по света да водят активен начин на живот, без да се срамуват от телата си.
