Well, we do have our fair share of fat celebrities, but there is another distinct category of stars - women with curves. They are total opposites of Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Ritchie. And one of the biggest stars in that category is Vida Guerra. In an interview with xposed.com, she said her popularity suggests the entertainment industry is warming to models and actresses with different body types. Vida, a Cuban-born beauty who became a modeling sensation after appearing in FHM Magazine 2 years back, is famous for her curves, including her now much-publicized rear end. Readers responded to her first appearance by an unprecedented 70% of the magazine’s mail that month consisting of a flood of requests on Vida.

"I’m not the one who opened guys’ eyes, but I think my pictures sort of helped break down the wall in Hollywood because before, (producers and casting agents) would just say, 'Oh, she’s too fat,'" Vida said. Obviously all men don’t like that, and times are changing. Some men are into that look, but a lot of men aren’t.

"Hollywood has this thing that you have to be really skinny because the camera makes you look 10 pounds heavier. But obviously, people are responding. I get letters from women thanking me and wanting fitness and food tips," Vida Guerra says. Not to mention one male fan being enamored enough to get a Vida tattoo, while another artistic type did a sculpture in her honor.
