“I hope this show is a teaching moment, an educational moment and an entertaining moment for people who need it.” NetflixSurvivalOfTheThickest
“I did the dieting, I did the fasting, I did the weird workouts, I tried everything. The last diet I ever did was ‘The South Beach Diet’ and dropped 40 pounds for my wedding, then my wedding dress was too big and falling off of me. Then I literally had a potato and tequila and blacked out for most of my wedding. I realised then, I am never going to fit this unattainable, patriarchal standard of what being attractive is and nor the f**k do I want to.
Setting the show within the fashion world and showing Mavis hustling her way through an industry which has not traditionally made space for her, or Michelle herself, was an important move for her. “I remember having anxiety going to Macy's junior department,” Michelle reveals, looking back on her early experiences. “I even auditioned to be a cheerleader in college.
“I love that the fashion industry is low-key trying to keep up, but there's still so much more work to do because I think that there still is a lot of insensitivity around it,” Michelle adds. “I don't think it's up to us to wait for them. It's up to us to make our own lines but I really wanted my character to be a stylist to highlight how horrible the fashion industry can be.
