What they put on their cover and the debate it has sparked about body image, womens health, and whether the term plussize needs to be scrapped. Heres my nightline coanchor juju chang. Reporter shes the it girl comedienne. What size are you now . Im a 4 at old navy. Okay, so an 8. Yeah. Reporter unafraid to poke fun at herself and all the body shamers out there on her hit show inside amy schumer. What size are you thinking your new bodys going to be . Im definitely going to be a size 2. Congratulations thats a great size. Reporter labeled the queen of comedy, theres one label shes not laughing about, plussize. The comedienne taking issue with glamour after being included in the chic at any size special issue featuring Ashley Graham. Schumer highlighted alongside Melissa Mccarthy and adele as women who inspire us. The train wreck star taking to instagram. I think theres nothing wrong with being plus size. Beautiful, healthy women. Plus size is considered size 16 in america. I go between a size 6 and 8. And she goes on to say, young girls seeing my body type, thinking that is plus size . Not cool, glamour. Not glamorous. Her blast going viral. Are you surprised to be caught in a twitter war with amy shumer . Nobody can outtweet amy. Reporter cindy levy is the editor in chief of Glamour Magazine. Im sorry she didnt like being named on the cover and im sorry she wishes her piece hadnt been included. But im confident that the message of the issue, which is that there are great clothes out there for all of us, is one that will relevance nate with readers. Reporter Glamour Magazine is on the forefront of the plussize revolution, now a 20 billion market. I dont believe amy schumer is plus size. Thats not a term i love. The cover line says, women who inspire us. We felt the audience for this special edition would be inspired by her completely hilarious and constant, consistent message of body positivity. Reporter which is why glamor made her its cover girl last august and the uk edition gave her the trail blazers award last year for her messages of body positivity. Im not going to apologize for who i am and im going to love the skin that im in and not be striving for some other version of myself. Do you regret including her in the issue . I dont regret including her. I like amy, i think shes hilarious. Im sorry she wasnt happy with it but i think women enjoy what she has to say on the subject of body image. Reporter the special edition, Ashley Graham who made a splash as a Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover girl, says the term plussize is outdated given 60 of american women are size 14 or larger, sparking many women to ditch the label altogether and embrace a body positive movement. I think when people say, lets get rid of the word plus, what were meaning is we dont want to be in a box. We dont want to be labeled. Reporter model Candace Huffine is featured in the same issue, now speaking out in the hopes to redefine what it means to be plussize. I just decided, why are we treating it like a dirty fourletter word . Why cant we change the definition, take back ownership of it, and prove to everyone that a plussize woman is healthy. Im a size 12 14. So this is the body im meant to be in. What would it take for you to be a size zero . It would be impossible. You would be going after an unhealthy body . Which is why when i had that choice 15 years ago to lose weight to get a contract at this agency or to move forward, im very grateful that i didnt even try to go down a road that wasnt meant for me. Reporter candacenow part of a group of curvaceous women represented by img, the same Agency Responsible for top models like gisele, kate moss. We say, if youre a model youre an img model. We opened up the conversation on diversity in the last two years. Reporter a conversation that led img models president ivan bart to create the curves division. The name pointedly rejecting the industrys plussize label. Ashley graham and marquita among the women who captured the attention of magazines and designers. When i saw how successful they are, how much revenue they generate, it opened our minds about how important this industry is right now. And how much opportunity there is. Reporter and the perfect opportunity to send a message to young girls about what is a healthy body size. Girls like tessa embree, who this week sparked a similar conversation after writing a letter to her gym teacher refusing her assignment to calculate her body mass index, bmi. I am just beginning to love my body like i should and im not going to let some outdated calculator tell me im obese because im not. Reporter the eighth grader refusing to let her health be defined by a number. Tells sa and her mother say their physician deemed her healthy, giving her more of a reason to speak out about her body insecurities. I realize that i eat healthy, i work out, i play softball at least five times a week. And im comfortable in my own skin. What would you say to middle schoolgirls who are asked to calculate their bmi . Do you love yourself . Are you happy with the way you look . That number means nothing. Do the things that make you happy and that gets you the furthest in life. Reporter but this conversation around body image is crossing gender lines. The absence of big guys feels like a form of body shaming. It kind of does, like shaming by omission. Its showing that, well, we dont find this attractive, so were not going to highlight it. Reporter at 66, 26yearold zach micoh has been signed as the first big and tall male model. Everyone said, youre the first plussize model. I remember thing, that cant possibly be true. Reporter thats because from a young age miko says he struggled with the same types of anxieties women have long been confessing. I grew up with crazy body image issues and selfesteem issues and insecurities based on my size. I always felt like this big kid that was made fun of. I still have nightmares about being dragged to the husky section by my mom when i was a kid. Reporter with the average waist size on men measuring 39 inches this once big and tall in each niche market is going mainstream. Hello, im chubby shorts male model of the year. Reporter chubby shorts boasts of real men wearing real shorts. The retro brand ditching the sixpack model look and embracing the dad bod, in an effort to reach their core customers. With hundreds of thousands of followers on instagram the label is hotter than ever. I would have been interested in fashion when i was younger. I know i would have. But it wasnt available to me. It really is a blind spot that fashion has, so crazy. Yeah, so im really hoping that we can get past that and get designers on board and realize just the moneymaking potential they could have. Reporter regardless of the label, its undoubtedly a heavyweight market. In the end, it seems amy schumer is putting the plussize misunderstanding behind her. Posting this whimsical clip in a skimpy bikini. Writing, bottom line seems to be, we are done with these unnecessary labels which seem to be reserved for women. For nightline, im juju chang in new york. Next, shoate that gave Us Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson says farewell. Tonight, the stars and surprises on the final episode of American Idol.

And it taught america what it means to be pitchy. Reporter former judge Jennifer Lopez capitalizing on all the attention i aint your mama reporter to debut her own song. Thats why shes an American Idol, folks. Celebrating a show thats changed tv and music both. Reporter American Idol was interactive, empowering viewers to pick the next big star, giving contestants a truly national audition. I think that was really exciting for people to do and to watch together with other people and to see their person make it. Reporter people watched because you never knew if that next contestant might just be the next big thing. It was like this giant cinderella story are everybody knew Kelly Clarkson had been a waitress. The winner is Kelly Clarkson reporter Kelly Clarkson was an unknown singer from texas when she won seen one of American Idol. Tv moment that seemed to last a lifetime. Today shes a bona fide star. Shes sold nearly 18 million albums with hits like stronger and since youve been gone. From the start i thought Kelly Clarkson was a great sing letter are shes a very strong person. And that really came through in the career that shes had ever since. Reporter even American Idols losers could end up being dream girls. Like jennifer hudson, sent home early on season three, despite being widely praised by the judges. But it all worked out in the end for hudson. Jennifer hudson reporter that performance won her an oscar. She may not be an idol. But theres no better consolation prize. Who doesnt love Carrie Underwood taking a smoke break.

Not only was i flying for the first time, i was flying by myself. Reporter simon cowell knew talent when he heard it.

Carrie underwood has gone on to sell more than 58 million albums and win 13 grammys. I love that shes gone on to be a big star and he had predicted that, simon. Reporter cowells signature snarkiness was a trademark. Amazingly dreadful. Reporter chemistry part of the early success. I will bow to the god of Paula Abdullah.

I am exhausted reporter allegations she addressed on nightline in 2009. Ive never been addicted to any prescription drugs. Ive never been drunk. I have worked my whole life. Im not the girl thats in those tapes. Reporter paula, simon, and randy eventually moved on themselves replaced by a revolving door of celebrities. Among them ellen degeneris, steven tyler, Jennifer Lopez, and of course nicki minaj who feuded with cojudge mariah carey.

This is American Idol reporter the one constant on the show, perennial host ryan seacrest. I was terrified. I put on a brave face the first couple of episodes.

Looking like a fool with your pants on the ground reporter if imitation is the greatest form of flattery idol must have been beloved, paving the way for shows like americas got talent, x factor, the voice. The voice was a little copycat version of American Idol, really. I dont think its really about who wins it because i mean, ive watched it enough, i dont even know anybody from it. Reporter viewership declined as fresh talent turned to social media. Bypassing the tv middleman altogether. Justin bieber was discovered on youtube. Shawn mendes was discovered on vine.
