Big, bold and beautiful: Toolz, Teni, 6 other plus-size celebrities living their best lives
Beauty comes in all shapes, forms, sizes and skin tones. Even though the tenets of society as regards beauty standards continue to put women under pressure to look a certain way, there are those who have remained unapologetic about their looks.
It takes a lot of courage and an interesting amount of self-love and acceptance for these women to embrace themselves and be bold about their bodies whilst living under the spotlight.
