In a sea of anorexic Hollywood starlets, it’s good to see a woman who is not afraid to flaunt a little bit of curves. Imagine my surprise when I read an article in Life & Style Magazine published last Spring on how self-conscious she is of her body.

Okay …. so maybe I’m a little *behind* on my celebrity gossip and this is probably very old news by now but I feel that the lovely Kim deserves a little bit of credit.

SHE’S THE ULTIMATE PEAR
