The lead singer of punk group "The Gossip," Ditto weighs in at a robust 210 pounds, no doubt accrued thanks to God-knows-how-many fatty, rib-sticking meals she's eaten in her home state of Arkansas. Her trademark is wearing skin-tight blue bodysuits with stripper heels on stage at her band's shows. She's a lesbian who dates a transgender individual born as a woman but living as a man. She told the Sun, "I read things where people call me a fat ugly ****, and you know what? I am a fat ugly ****, and it's amazing!" Fat, ugly and proudly holding her shining lantern, Beth Ditto is the perfect Statue of Liberty for a new America.
However, like a Miss America contestant, Ditto's looks alone don't justify consecration. She has achievements to her name, other than just being fugly and proud of it.
