Wow. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Zoe Szypillo (http://www.zoeszypillo.net/). At 24, she’s a rising star of the modelling world and making her way up in Bollywood. I may just marry this woman. All she needs is an AK-47 in her hands and i’m all hers for eternity. I have an eye for talent and i want her presenting my shows.

Another one in my series of interesting and anti-anorexia models, she has a fascinating story and a wonderfully positive and intelligent take on the world. Her battle against cancer was recently featured in Cosmopolitan and is on the books at London’s Irrestible Talent agency.

“A former West Exe Technology College student, was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in her left leg at the age of just 14. She had to undergo a year of chemotherapy and operations, causing her to lose her trademark black-jet hair. At one point, Zoe was even told that she only had two years to live.”

Here’s what she has to say about being thin and dieting:

When does thin become too thin?
“When obviously you are unhealthy. Some girls are just naturally very thin and find it hard to put on weight but some really do have eating disorders. I personally love to have curves, I am a naturally curvy person but work out so I naturally stay slim. I do watch what I eat but only because I want to stay fit and healthy. I have had jobs in the past when they’ve asked me to lose weight and I just walked away.”

Have you ever dieted?
“Yes, but I only go on a diet that’s good for my body and fits in with my everyday life.”
