<p><a href="http://trashwire.com" target="_blank">Trashwire.com</a> has been growing by leaps and bounds over the past couple months and I haven&#8217;t had enough time to develop <a href="http://thetvgeek.com">TheTVGeek</a> to its full potential. </p>
<p>So, I&#8217;m looking for contributors. </p>
<p>If you watched every episode of <em>I&#8217;m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!</em> and have been dying to put in your two cents about the Sanjaya/Holly relationship&#8230; if you already set your Tivo to record <em>The T.O. Show</em> on VH1&#8230; if you managed to watch Jesse&#8217;s return to the <em>Big Brother</em> house without puking&#8230; then you might be just the person I&#8217;m looking for.</p>
<p>Just use the <a href="http://thetvgeek.com/contact/">contact form</a> to shoot me an email and I&#8217;ll get back to you as soon as possible. If you&#8217;d prefer, you can also hit me up <a href="http://twitter.com/trashwire" target="_blank">via Twitter (@trashwire)</a> and let me know what you&#8217;re interested in contributing from updates to commentary to video parodies.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This post appeared on <a href="http://dlisted.com" target="_blank">DListed.com</a> today:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-weight: bold">Whitney Thomson</span> became the first plus-sized winner of &#8220;<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold">America&#8217;s Next Top Model&#8221;</span> last night. It was pretty obvious. <span style="font-weight: bold">TyTy</span> planned this shit from the beginning. She hatched out this plan over a <a href="http://dlisted.com/#" id="KonaLink8" target="_top" class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static"><font style="color: #ff00ff ! important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static" color="#ff00ff"><span class="kLink" style="color: #ff00ff ! important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static"></span></font></a>steak dinner at &#8220;<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold">Houston&#8217;s.</span>&#8221; Seriously, TyTy mentioned Houston&#8217;s last night and it got me excited for some reason.</p>
<p><a href="http://fourfour.typepad.com/fourfour/2008/05/a-damn-good-job.html#more">Rich from FourFour</a> has some interesting info on how Whitney got on the show. A source told him that Whitney never auditioned for the show. She was approached by someone from the show. That&#8217;s nothing new. I think many of the show&#8217;s skanks were approached instead of auditioning for the show.</p>
<p>The source said at the time, Whitney was already modeling as a size 2 or 4. The person from the show told her size 4 was a little too big to compete as a regular model on the show. They told her if she gained around 10-20 pounds they would put her on the show as a plus-sized model. <a href="http://fourfour.typepad.com/fourfour/2008/05/a-damn-good-job.html#more">FourFour has some pictures of a much</a> skinnier Whitney. Through the entire season, Whitney cried about how hard it was for her growing up fat or whatever.</p>
<p>Whitney, who is a size 8 or 10, talked to <a href="http://tvwatch.people.com/2008/05/15/whitney-thompson-wins-americas-next-top-model/">People</a> about how she&#8217;s embraced her curves, <span style="font-style: italic">&#8220;Right before I left for the show, one of my best friends said to me, ‘You’re not going to go that far. You’re fat. Every week I would remember her saying that. And every week I was like, ‘In your face!’</span>”</p>
<p>Yes, size 8 is considered &#8220;<span style="font-style: italic">full-figured</span>.&#8221;</p>
<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m glad<a href="http://dlisted.com/#" id="KonaLink10" target="_top" class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static"><font style="color: #ff00ff ! important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static" color="#ff00ff"><span class="kLink" style="color: #ff00ff ! important; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif,Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static"></span></font></a> Anna Nicole Whitney won.</p></blockquote>
<p>I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised. With all the fuss Tyra et al. made over her being the first real size winner,  the whole thing felt like a set up from the gate.</p>
<p>And for the record, Whitney does <a href="http://weaktwin.com/2008/05/14/whitney-from-antm-is-anna-nicole-smiths-weak-twin/" target="_blank">look a LOT like</a> Anna Nicole.</p>
