2010 February 18 Kate Moss has long been associated with fashion's elite, but now she is spinning off her supermodel success into a lucrative career as a fashion designer, perfumer, and hair care line collaborator. And along with her fame and success, she has also given us what might be one of the world's worst mottos ever adopted by a woman. In an interview, she said that one of her mottos is, "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels." While I am sure this is meant to be a motivating tactic for the supermodel to avoid junk food, it unfortunately can also be all the ammunition a teen girl needs to arm herself with a dangerous "skinny obsession," which often leads to misguided dieting and possibly even starvation. I long for the day when celebrities understand the responsibility that comes with their fame. Whether they choose it or not, they become a de facto role model. I wish they could comprehend how many girls are watching and listening. I wish they would make choices with these easily-influenced girls in mind. Maybe then we'd hear about a celebrity who actually has a decent motto.
