“Most of the models today are emaciated. I’m telling you, those girls must
have to starve themselves. They can’t even enjoy their food. One of the
pleasures, especially of old age, is eating. I’ve gained some weight that
I’m trying to get off now, but if I had to give up my ice cream, my fried
chicken and my spare ribs, my three favorite foods, I would be
miserable.”-Bettie Page
