I'm loving the Russian Police Choir singing "Get Lucky". I also love that they found this chubby Russian woman from an earlier photo op with Matt (at the Lover's Bench) and she's also dancing with the group.

Suzie, if you saw this woman, chubby is being nice. She was a very robust Russian woman.

Jules, if you saw me, you'd say the same thing about me.. just instead of the word chubby, it would be fat.

I'm chubby. I don't think it's offensive. She was dressed beautifully in a nice coat and matching boots. She looked adorable and the chubbiness was part of that.

Some people with a lot of weight, as myself, would find that offensive.. sorry but that's how I feel, no I'm not sorry..

I don't call people fat. Anyway, I think the woman is an actress... it was part of a skit they did with Matt sitting on this bench in the park that supposedly is where you can find love if someone comes along and sits on it with you. It had a dip in the middle. So this robust Russian lady in a big fur coat and head scarf comes and sits on it with him. It's one of those things you had to see... the humor gets lost in translation. ${#emotions_dlg.blush}$

You shouldn't be sorry. I appreciate you expressing your opinion. You did it in a respectful way. We're just different. I'm larger sized and don't find it offensive. Different strokes for different folks. Smile

I'm sorry you are offended, but I guess I don't understand why.... the fact is, she was a large woman. Would you have preferred Deb used the word "fat" rather than "chubby"? Kind of seems like tomato/tomato to me.
