The lovely Beyoncé has long been a role model for curvy girls, proudly showing off her bootyliciousness in sexy dresses and revealing costumes.
It was a bit disappointing when she dropped the pounds to play Deena Jones in Dreamgirls, although we were glad she candidly complained that the Master Cleanse diet she used to lose weight was awful.
Now we're thrilled to hear her openly talking about putting on 15 pounds to play Etta James in the upcoming Cadillac Records. She tells People that it was much easier, and more fun, to put on the weight. Oh, don't we know it!
We think she looks amazing as Etta, and fabulous as herself. She fills out a dress with old school style and glamor, and of course you know we totally covet her wig collection.
