Jenifer Ringer, who has been cast as the Sugar Plum Fairy for the New York City Ballet
production of The Nutcracker has been criticized for her weight. Some people have significant problems controlling their weight. This is an odd situation though.
Jenifer Ringer Plays the Sugar Plum Fairy
Jenifer Ringer has said that her body is part of her art form and is open to criticism and she has refused to ask for an apology from the New York Times review that called her overweight. Jenifer Ringer is 37 years old and has battled eating disorders in her past. Jenifer has successfully fought against both anorexia and compulsive eating. Although Jenifer says she was embarrassed she agrees that people are entitled to their opinion and confirms that her body type is not that of a stereotypical ballerina. She may be a few pounds overweight in light of ballerina standards but when compared to most humans, she is in immaculate shape.
It is Their Right to Choose
Being overweight is an issue faced by many people around the world. People manage this situation from various perspectives and depending on what careers they have people tend to criticize others for being overweight. Maintaining ones weight when a person is prone to gaining weight or has some eating disorder is a feat in itself. People undergo different kinds of regimens to lose weight and they are entitled to choose their method to lose weight.
Should not become a Habit
Liposuction is a form of plastic surgery that allows people to get rid of fat from the difficult places around the incredible body. Liposuction is a surgical procedure that has recently shown a great improvement due to new innovations but someone like Jenifer Ringer absolutely does not fall under this category. Liposuction should not become a habit and only those people who have the need to lose weight that threatens their body should undergo this procedure.
