Bigger Bangers: Gabi Gregg And A Posse Of Plus-Sized Models Pose For Beachside Bikini Calendar [Photos + Video]

Whole lotta lovin ‘ Gabi Gregg And Other Plus-Sized Models Pose For Bikini Calendar Via DailyMail Plus-size supermodel Robyn Lawley is joined by a cast of curvy women in a new swimwear calendar that hits back at society’s obsession with super-slim summer bodies. Jada Sezer, Shareefa J and plus-size fashion blogger Gabi Gregg joined Miss Lawley on the picturesque Turks and Caicos islands where they were photographed in a range of beach gear – even posing topless in one shot that echoed the pose that covered this year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Swimsuits For All – the plus-size e-tailer behind the calendar – said that it wanted to capture ‘confident, sexy women with varying body types to highlight the beauty in all women.’ Making it accessible to all, the digital calendar is available for free on the Swimsuits For All website. The images used for each month show the women looking happy and relaxed as they display their curves in retro-inspired tankinis, neon-colored bikinis and classic black swimsuits. In a behind-the-scenes video from the shoot, Miss Lawley, 24 – who is a U.S. size 14 and 6ft 2in tall – reveals that she always struggled to find a swimsuit that fitted her frame growing up. Instead, she would resort to wearing underwear at the beach. Meanwhile, 27-year-old plus-size blogger Gabi Gregg – a U.S. size 18 – tells viewers that she took part in the Swimsuits For All initiative to promote a more positive body image. ‘I think it’s sad that the representatives of women in mainstream culture are usually so small because we have such a diversity of sizes in the real world,’ she said. ‘What I think that happens is that so many women see those girls and they think they have to look like them and I know that plus-size models and bloggers like myself are really helping change that.’ Flip it on over to see more of these beautiful bikini-clad ladies in all their glory.

Chit-Chatter: Former Roc-A-Fella Employee Gives New Details On Relationships Between Jay Z, Rachel Roy, Dame Dash, Aaliyah, & More

Former Roc-A-Fella Employee Talks Jay Z, Rachel Roy, Dame Dash, Aaliyah Yesterday, the Carter-Knowles camp finally released an official statement speaking out about the now-infamous elevator altercation between Solange and Jay Z following a Met Gala after party earlier this month but little-to-no details were given about what sent Solange into a fit of rage. At the center of the more concrete theories on what led up to the Solange’s spazz session is Damon Dash’s ex-wife and former Roc-A-Fella inter Rachel Roy. StyleBlazer recently caught up with former Roc-A-Fella videographer Arthur Alston who was employed during the companies early days and gave some interesting insight on what was really going on back then between Jay Z, Rachel, Dame, and Aaliyah before also weighing about Solange and Beyonce. Check out a little of what he had to say below: How did you initially get in the door at Roc-A-Fella? With Dame, he saw one of my film projects and was impressed with my work. So he hired me. How did Rachel Roy initially get in the door at Roc-A-Fella? She was an intern at Roc-A-Wear and then she started dating Dame and… kind of, you know, became his eyes and ears. I guess she was inspired to be a designer and she got the opportunity by dating him. Was it common for the female employees to date the men there? Yes. Did you ever see a non-professional relationship between Rachel Roy and Jay Z while she was with  Dame? Never. I don’t believe that [the rumors] to be true. This is the first time I’m hearing it. I know that Rachel has been with Dame for a long time. She was even pregnant when Aaliyah was his girl. So she’s been around for a while. So Rachel was in a position where –she started off as an intern– Dame was attracted to her and started assisting him. She got to be hands-on with the lines because being that she was dating him, he brought her into his business structure. She learned a lot about the business and Dame taught her as well. Arthur also went into detail about whether or not he witnessed a non-professional relationship between Rachel and Jay AFTER her divorce from Dame, what really set Solange off in the elevator and gave a VERY surprising answer to the million dollar question of whether or not Jay Z dated Aaliyah before, after or during her relationship with Dame.

Shonda Rhimes Addresses Rumors About Columbus Short’s ‘Scandal’ Replacement In light of his recent multiple run ins with the law, not many ‘Scandal’ fans were shocked to learn that original cast member Columbus Short aka “Harrison” received a pink slip last month and confirmed that he’d be exiting the show, but many WERE wondering whether or not he’d be replaced. In response to rumors of who would replace him getting a little out of hand, ‘Scandal’ creator Shonda Rhimes took to her Twitter and set the record straight. And there you have it.  This does make us curious as to exactly how Shonda will phase the Harrison character out,though. How do you think she will do it?

For Discussion: Pro-Choice Counselor Posts Her Own Abortion On YouTube To Show How Quick, Easy And Guilt-Free It Can Be

Do you think this is educational or attention-seeking? Pro-Choice Advocate Films Her Abortion For YouTube Emily Letts, a former actress and current abortion counselor from New Jersey, recently posted a video diary of her very own abortion procedure on YouTube, she claims in hopes of further educating female patients. In the video, uploaded on March 14, you can only see Letts from the waist up while she receives a surgical abortion with a local anesthetic. Check out the clip here: As Letts wrote in an article for Cosmopolitan.com , despite working daily as a sex-educator who counsels women on contraception, she hadn’t been bothering to use any birth control herself. She goes on to say: I knew immediately I was going to have an abortion. I knew I wasn’t ready to take care of a child. The guy wasn’t involved in my decision. I called my supervisor and said, “Excuse me, I am going to need to schedule one abortion, please.” It was very early in the pregnancy, only two to three weeks. Patients at the clinic always ask me if I can relate to them — have I had an abortion? Do I have kids? I was so used to saying, “I’ve never had an abortion but..” While I was pregnant and waiting for my procedure, I thought, “Wait a minute, I have to use this.” Even though Letts was early-on in her pregnancy and could have terminated with the less invasive “abortion pill,” she decided to use the experience to show other women that surgical abortion isn’t scary and you won’t necessarily feel bad after it’s completed. Our society breeds this guilt. We inhale it from all directions. Even women who come to the clinic completely solid in their decision to have an abortion say they feel guilty for not feeling guilty. Even though they know 110 percent that this is the best decision for them, they pressure themselves to feel bad about it. This issue is definitely a tough one. On one hand, her video could be helpful to de-stigmatize such a difficult choice for the hundreds of thousands of women and girls who feel they have to make it. However…her seemingly lighthearted attitude toward the whole situation could fuel even more hatred/stigma toward those who make the choice from those who oppose it. The pro-choice argument seems to be one of keeping decisions such as this one private, and between a woman and her clinician…does publicizing it truly further that cause? And, since we know she’ll be all over the internet and the talk shows after this, could it possibly have been a ploy to draw more attention to herself rather than the issue at hand? What do you think, Bossip fam? Photo: YouTube/Emily Letts
