Well I had a friend of mine pose (she's 18) and what did I hear from the very start? "I am sooo fat...look at my big butt" and I just thought wow the irony, I've hardly ever seen a thinner person hehehe! So I cought this picture and rather liked it...nothing changed exept its in b&w ofcaurse. Would have liked a little bit more space above the head but there's no cropping here, just the original picture, it was not a pose just natural...!

Contrast make the breasts be main subject. Fits the name then.

Well composed. I hopes you asked your model to pack on a few pounds. It is the sad story of many of you nation's youth. However, I think that was a trend that peaked in the nineties and is slowly beginning to reverse itself, at least in my neck of the woods. There are far more overweight citizens than underwieght, I'd wager. Beyonce, JLO, and the rest of the booty-generation helped us all realize there's nothing wrong with a bit of cargo in the back seat. (7)

returning for comments:
Very well done to demostrate humor. Would have loved for the light to have accompanied the hand with same intensity, but never mind, the torso is so well recorded that all is forgiven. 7

I think the use of more dramatic lighting (perhaps butterfly) could have really improved the shot. The pose is well done to me and it is a technically sound shot.

Nice photo, the effect of covering here face with her hair adds to it by making it more anonymous and giving it a wider appeal.

Title is a little drawn out, image seems cropped too tight.

Great shades and textures. This is one of my favorites of the challenge. I only see a few things I would like to have seen done differently, and those are just a matter of personal taste. Photrgaphicly I see no flaws. Good lighting, Great focus, good contrast and balance. I "personaly" would like to have seen the pants made of denim. I feel this would have added a nice texture that you could have easily acoplished in this lighting. Next I would like to have see a little of the models face. And last of all I think the polka dots on the bra are a little akward. But like I said thats just a matter of personal taste. Great shot. I look forward to seeing more like this.

Beautiful model, however without the title it loses the humor and just becomes a model shot. In which case, the average voter is going to vote down, because it's a model shot. But that aside, it's an excellent picture technically, There's no indecision in what subject I should look at ;o). I wouldn't have gone with the title though, I'm sure you'll get knocked around for it. It probably would've scored higher otherwise.
