i bet the people working behind the scenes on This Monday got more than they bargained for when babs rocked up, manic and gushing about about the fast train, and then changed into the outfit their team had approved - based on a magic mirror photo! the difference between the selfies she will have sent them and her real "babs in wild" appearance is vastly different - I bet whoever approved her outfit, and didn't check her ugly handbag for chub rubs shorts prior to releasing her into the "catwalk" received a thorough telling off and will use babs as a lesson to do their research properly in future.
guaranteed those chub rubs shorts she waved in the poor presenter's face will be a pair that have been well-worn and likely not even washed, grabbed from the pile of dirty laundry as she left the house, cackling at the thought of whipping them out on live TV.
as for that caption about how she "tried to think hard" about choosing an outfit that "people like me would like" - surely she has the upper hand in that situation, because she is herself and knows what she likes?! what she means is that she tried to choose an outfit that she thought other people would approve of and wouldn't mock her about wearing - because despite her lies about body confidence and being a big, brave 46year old woman who inspires others to dress exactly how they want, she thrives on external validation and doesn't have the confidence to be the HERest HER that ever HERd, and choose an outfit SHE loves without caring about other people's opinions.
the difference in her body in magic mirrors vs real life is so dramatic - for a start, the mirror seems to have the magic powers to give her ankles, which she doesn't have, and even her "cracking rack" appears somewhat more supported than it does in the photos from her TV appearance - ffs, her FACE looks like two totally differently people! unless ofc, she has an allergy to travelling by train, and her face swelled to twice the size on the journey to the studio. and WHERE ARE HER EYES?! did her face get hungry on the journey and start to absorb them into her cheeks?!
size 18, eh babs? your over-inflated head, possibly. clothes size? not so much.
