Lots of people have good figures, though. Personally if I say someone is good looking I am talking about their face rather than their figure. I think Candace has a sour face, always pulling that cat bottom face. Really hardfaced.
It really really annoys me that she got away with it and earned the title 'Nation's Sweetheart' (although I don't think that anyone would think of her that way now) I suspect that it is because Britain is such a racist nation. Think about it, she beat up a Black woman and was cheated on by a half Black husband. I strongly suspect that if Ashley had been white, she wouldn't have got nearly so much sympathy. I think that the sort of knuckledraggers that hate anyone whose ancestors didn't predate William the Conqueror probably resented Ashley for stealing 'Newcastle's Flower' or some such tripe. I really can't think of any other explanation for the extraordinary fame she enjoyed post GA. Sure she is pretty, but I don't personally think she was even the prettiest in the band. I think there must have been more to it than just looks, and racism is sadly my best guess.
