Nikki Blonsky doesn´t mind being fat

Nikki Blonsky doesn’t care that she’s fat! The Hairspray star insists she’s happy with her fuller figure!

“If I would have listened to all those people who told me to lose weight, I wouldn’t have gotten Tracy [in Hairspray] and I wouldn’t have gotten Will [in Huge],” she said.

For those who struggle with low self-esteem, Nikki suggests, “finding things that make you feel great about yourself and then focus on that rather than on the things that make you upset about yourself.

“Pick out the great things that you love about yourself. Whether it be your personality or jokes, whatever it is and focus on that rather than, ‘oh my hips are too big’ or ‘I have fat on my thighs’.

‘”Beauty fades as we get older.

“We will be remembered for the important things like our personalities and the work that we’ve done and how we’ve impacted other people’s lives. Not what we look like.`

“I just realize that I’m here for a reason. I’m here not to look like all the other girls. There’s something in me that separates me and makes me different and I don’t think it’s my weight.

“Obviously that’s the physical reason but I think when it comes down to it, I always believed talent would prevail.”
