BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: I don’t have ejections
in my ass, this is all real.
COMM: Plus-size model Bobbi-Jo Westley
has a dream - to have the world’s largest hips.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: My hips were 93 inches last
time I got measured, it was 93. My thighs were, I think 68 and my calves were like 37
inches.
COMM: While she celebrates her famous curves,
Bobbi-Jo does have worries about the effect her size has on her health.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: I lay down at night, I’m
thinking ‘cause I do have asthma as well, so I’m thinking, okay, is this going to
be my last breath.
SHAMIKA WESTON (Friend): People who are that
large you know, have large hearts. Diabetes is also a health issue. Just a lot of things,
a lot of health issues go with being really large.
COMM: At 500 pounds, Bobbi-Jo wasn’t always
this big. A combination of an underactive thyroid and having five children were major
factors in her weight gain.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: I don’t really eat a lot,
it may look like I do but I don’t. But to some people’s eyes I probably do because
of my size but I don’t eat a lot. There’s times when I would eat once a day, so. I love
salad obviously, I could eat this all day! Mainly it’s because of the thyroid, like
I’m the biggest one in my family. If a doctor told me I had to lose weight or I was gonna
die, I would try to lose some weight yes, ‘cause I’m not ready to die yet. I’m
trying to live a long life.
SHAMIKA WESTON (Friend): I have problems being
this big and that’s not half as big as she is but I admire her strength, her willpower
‘cause I couldn’t be that big.
COMM: But Bobbi-Jo is determined not to let
her size bring her down.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: All this! I’m not ashamed
of my body, I’m very confident, so I don’t mind. It’s my body, if I wanna show the
world me naked or in bra and panties, that’s what I choose to do. I’m famous for my hips
and my butt, yeah. It’s the first thing people notice.
COMM: Her humongous hips have started to pay
off. In 2014 modeling contracts started to roll in.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: On my first shoot I was
nervous but after the first time of putting all this butt in to a pair of thongs, it just
came natural. So, I liked it, it made me feel good.
COMM: The mum of five now commands $500 per shoot.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: My stage name is ‘Ultimate
Pear’. The stage name was chosen I guess because of like my hips and I have the ultimate hips.
COMM: And Bobbi’s fan base is growing.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: My fans come from everywhere!
Australia, India and United States, little bit of everywhere.
SHAMIKA WESTON (Friend): She gets lots of
attention from men. She gets lots and lots of attention. I’m with her a lot so I know
she gets lots of attention.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: A lot of men contact me
for love proposals. Oh wow! Of late between 40 and 50, contact me like, “I wanna marry
you.” “Can we have a baby together?”
COMM: Despite her super size measurements,
Bobbi-Jo still has a little way to go to steal the world record currently held by Mikel Ruffinelli.
BOBBI-JO WESTLEY: Am I proud of my big butt and hips?
Yes, I am. I’m not ashamed. I am who I am. Because my hips and my butt is
what makes me.
