"They kept telling me to lose weight, and I was a dancer and I was athletic and even my manager at the time who I no longer work with um was telling me, 'You need to lose weight. You need to be thinner.' I was like, 'No I don't. If I lose any more weight it won't be me.' You know what I mean?...It was a fight. It was definitely a fight, and so it's good to hear that it helped anybody in some way because at the end of the day I was just trying to be myself without trying to fit into a mold of what everybody else should be. It's a different time now you know, which is awesome to see for me where it is about our differences. It's about all the diversity. It's just a more accepting time of everything whether it's body type or race or gender. We've come a long way."
