Gisele Bundchen, a former Victorias Secret
and winner of the Model of the Universe Award, has been quoted on her
take on the issue, I never suffered from this problem [anorexia] because I had a very
strong family base. Parents are responsible, not the fashion industry. Everybody knows the
norm in the fashion is thin. But excuse me, there are people born with the right genes
for this profession.
