Was listening to the local radio stations phone in last night. One of the topics being discussed was Micheele from Pop Idol and her weight. The DJ was basically saying because she is overweight she shouldn't be a pop idol and that she would influence teenage girls to be overweight, which I thought was a load of rubbish. He then went on to say that she was cheating because of her size she takes up too much screen space and was basically saying that there werent any large successful people.

A caller rang in and suggested Alison Moyet and he called her a one hit wonder and said she wasnt successful anymore. Another caller then rang in and said Meat loaf is a successful large singer and still releases songs and has hits, which is what I was thinking but was too tired 2 phone in. The DJ then said Id hardly call Meat loaf big time. I personally thought this was a load of rubbish and if Meat isnt big time how come so many of concerts are sold out. I have e mailed the DJ earlier to put my point across about this.

Just wondered what everyone else thought about it
