As earlier reported by HuffPost Style, the Kardashian sisters have teamed up with Celebuzz to launch a nationwide search for a plus-size model to appear in the Ad campaign for their Kardashian Kurves denim line with Sears.

I am happy about this for many reasons....

"Women aren't funny!" We have heard that sentiment time and time again. As a matter of fact, one of the things I hate most about performing stand-up...

Throughout my life, I have heard time and time again that "women aren't funny!" When I started doing comedy, I was surprised that so many people felt this way about female comics, especially since many of the comedians that I truly admired were, and...

Jennifer Hudson and I have a lot in common. We were both born and raised on the south side of Chicago, we both sing a fabulous rendition of "And I am Telling You" (Patti LaBelle shoe toss and arm flapping included) and we both love Weight Watchers.

But, the...

I am so tired of black men writing dating advice books for black women!

I love all of the amazing men in my life, but many of them do not know how to be in a successful relationship. So, why are these self-appointed relationship gurus writing books to give women...

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful little girl born in Korea to a Korean mother and an African-American G.I. father. Due to hostile attitudes towards children of mixed heritage, she...

In a fashion industry that is obsessed with size, full-figured Brazilian model Fluvia Lacerda is showing the world that not only is bigger truly better, it's also marketable.

Yes! Big Girls need love too. But most importantly, we need clothes!

As a plus size comedian, often times I am discouraged because it is so hard to find fashionable clothes in my size to wear on stage. Many designers think that all they have to do is cut...

Now-a-days, EVERYBODY has a sex tape! While most of us keep it under lock and key in a old Payless "Pro-Wings" box in the back of the closet, some of us actually release it to the world and become an instant Superstar! Paris Hilton did it, Kim Kardashian and Ray...

Two very important things I learned recently are that "Black People are Afraid of Dogs" and "Black Girls Aren't Funny".

At least that's what a cute white guy told me the other night at a bar. Believe it or not, those two gems of black history were his pick up...

I've been a "talking head" or "pop culture pundit" on many television shows, but I must say that the "25 Biggest TV Blunders" that will air this Sunday, February 28th at 8pm (EST) on the TV Guide Channel was by far, one of the most interesting shows I have ever...

I have always been a big fan of Star Jones. But today I found out that she hates me.

Or at the very least, she was very irritated with me. But since I am a drama queen like her, saying she hates me sounds more fun!

Over the years...

It's official: Ugly Girls Have More Fun!

Or at the very least, they have more sex.

During a visit to my GYNY the other day I noticed that most of the women in the waiting room were not the most sterotypically beautiful...

Just when you have nothing to BLOG about, God sends you an email message like this:

Erica,

Fat on Fat Crime is a new epidemic that is sweeping the nation. With all of the prejudice and discrimination that is already going on in the world, who would ever think that Fat people and FORMER Fat People like Designer Karl Lagerfeld, would start taking it upon themselves to...

Critics insist that Dr. Regina Benjamin, President Obama's pick for U.S. Surgeon General, is too fat for the position. I will admit she has a little meat on her bones - voluptuous, thick at most. Or as my daddy would say "she's Juicy!" But fat? Come on!

The Surgeon General...
