Since Saturday, Ford model AJ Abualrub has walked a tremendous amount of shows, covering ground for numerous labels such as Calvin Klein and Versace. Interviewed by the New York Times, Abualrub commented that he had to drop thirty pounds from his natural weight of 200 pounds to be runway ready. Say it is not so — the women are not alone — the men in the industry are stressing about their weight as well. (NY Times)

It’s hard to tell since his face is cropped off, but I think it is.
