Fan Bing Bing Proclaims that She is actually a "Fat Chick" in revealing interview

As the first-time ambassador for Summer (Bikini) season, it is only natural that the subject of women's struggle with their body types gets brought up. Looking at herself in the mirror, Fan Bing Bing strokes her face and comments to the interviewer, "I grow fat easily. I do have a thin face, arms and forearms, which are thankfully the areas people notice but when it comes to the rest of my body, i am actually a "fat chick".

And indeed, while Fan Bing Bing's face is as small as an average person's palm, the extra inches around her waist and lower body can be clearly seen. And for someone who doesn't have the perfect figure but who is arguably the one China celebrity face that dominates the covers of tabloids and magazines, Fan Bing Bing admits that she has been incredibly lucky.

Fan Bing Bing shares that she once thought of dieting to achieve the bony and frail figure most Chinese female celebrities flaunt these days but shelved the idea because she once consulted a very famous fortune teller who told her that if she were to lose weight and lose her big bottom, all the good fortune and luck she has enjoyed thus far will be gone. And with that, Fan Bing Bing found a good excuse to continue enjoying her food and avoiding the gym.


Interviewer's Viewpoint:


QUOTE
Seeing a surprisingly childlike side to Fan Bing Bing who talks to me about how plump women have a countenance that radiates good fortune, brings warmth in winter and provides a softness to the harshness of summer, this conversation lets me see a fashionably clothed and apparently self-confident Fan who seemingly has it all and who ordinarily would never have been viewed as a "fat chick" in a totally different light.

Believing in the words of that famous fortune-teller, she has travelled through a path of which most people would never have believed a fat chick would find such unbelievable success in. Throughout the interview, Fan brings up the term "good fortune" many more times than the term "beautiful" and brings me a deeper understanding as to how this woman sitting before me views her own beauty. Her famously "foxy" face projects a hostility and coolness that makes her seem totally unapproachable to bystanders but her personality easily dispels that unapproachability.

From the expectation of receiving “I am an original and beautiful woman in a class of her own” vibes to receiving “I am actually a fat little girl” vibes, i see the same beautiful face looking back at me but as to the secrets of how to be a truly beautiful woman, it is now made obvious that the beautiful Fan Bing Bing sitting before me has a much deeper understanding in both achieving and viewing true beauty than what you would expect her to have.
