The supersized model whose picture was unwittingly used in an advertisement for an extra-marital affairs website has spoken out about the apparent ‘exploitation’ of her body.
Known only by the name Jacqueline, the obese model has slammed Ashley Madison and the advertising industry for ‘body shaming’ and promoting infidelity.
Writing on Jezebel.com, the U.S. size 32 model said the photo that was used in the ad was taken years ago and then unknowingly sold to picture agencies.
Big is beautiful: Jacqueline, who unwittingly features in the ad, believes the marketing material ‘suggests, blatantly, that fat people are patently undeserving of love and loyalty.’
The image of her body, scantily clad and languishing suggestively, then made its way into the offending marketing material for Ashley Madison, accompanied by the slogan ‘Did your wife scare you last night?’ The full-page ad recently appeared in New York Metro newspaper.
She says the ad is yet another unwelcome case of body shaming.
‘There is an enormous problem in this world in regards to female body shaming, and not solely in regard to fat women, but all women. A size 2 woman who sees this ad sees the message: “If I don’t stay small, he will cheat.”
‘A size 12 woman might see this ad and think “If I don’t lose 30lbs, he will cheat.” A size 32 woman could see this ad, and feel “I will never find love.” It’s horrific,’ she writes on Jezebel.
She believes the use of her photo ‘Contribut[es] to… widespread and creeping depression by suggesting, blatantly and without pretense, that fat people are patently undeserving of love and loyalty,’ and deems the action ‘repulsive.’
To add insult to injury, body shaming, she says, is being used to promote infidelity.
‘I find the very idea that there exists a business based solely around the facilitation of infidelity appalling. The fact that they are now suggesting that a person’s partner not fitting their ideal body size/shape, entitles that person to ‘shop around’ is disgusting,’ she writes.
‘It’s bad enough that a business exists that profits from cheaters, but, worse, that they have the gall to blame a woman’s body on the act’
‘It’s bad enough that a business exists that encourages and profits from cheaters, but, worse still, that they have the gall to blame a woman’s body on the act, rather than the man who is incapable of commitment and loyalty.’
Her feelings toward the ad are unambiguous: ‘It exists in the same school of thought in which a rapist blames a woman’s outfit for his crime.’
Jacqueline, whose ‘Big Beautiful Women’ business is dependent on those who find obesity sexually arousing, is proud of her ‘supersize’ sexiness. She is the star of pornography website, juicyjackie.com.
But there is a stark difference between those who choose to visit her BBW site and a public ad that is targeted at unloyal men, she believes.
‘I am a size 32. I am beautiful. I think women of all sizes are beautiful. Beauty is not and has never been one-size-fits-all. I do not appreciate my image being used, without notice or permission, to tell women I have never met otherwise.
‘It is incumbent upon advertisers, and society at large, to act responsibly before foisting something like this onto the world.’

The man behind the controversial affairs website, Noel Biderman, has responded to Jacqueline’s words.
The best thing that could’ve happened to this woman is that we used her in our ad. Despite what she may want you to think, she is reaping the press for her own pornography website,’ wrote the Ashley Madison founder and CEO.
‘She took these pictures and signed the release knowing that they were not just for “personal use.” However, if she can get great publicity from this, all the power to her.’
Ashley Madison has been criticised for its unusual – if not taboo-breaking – stance on extra-marital affairs. Mr Biderman defended the site on Business Week earlier this year, saying that the service, which links married individuals to potential sexual partners, is a way to save marriages.
‘If I woke up and found my partner wasn’t interested in being with me sexually and I tried to do everything I could but sex was now off her radar…Well, sex is important in my marriage – it is – but it’s not No. 1 and it’s not No. 2,’ she told the magazine.
So, the road to the White House proved to be a bit bumpy for Herman Cain, but just because a few sexual harassment allegations derailed the Cain Train from reaching the White House doesn’t mean it has to come to a screeching halt, right? Of course not.That’s why Noel Biderman, the founder of the largest dating website for married people, AshleyMadison.com, has offered him a job. “It’s a presidential posting, actually,” Biderman tells Yeas & Nays.
“We think we know what kind of individual Herman is and we are trying to say to him that there is a better way to pursue those interpersonal relationships and if he wants to come and be employed with us until 12/12/12 of next year and help explain how people should avoid these kind of disclosures in the future by using Ashley Madison, he’d be a great advocate for the product,” Biderman explains.
The official offer, which was extended to Cain last Monday, includes a $400,000 salary and is for the position president of international affairs of Ashley Madison, which has more than 12 million users in 17 countries. “I genuinely believe he is the perfect for it given that he is our target market — that’s exactly the kind of person we find on our service all of the time.”
While Biderman tells us he hasn’t heard back from Cain or his attorneys yet, he is hoping to get some kind of response.
If he doesn’t and Newt Gingrich becomes “available,” would the former House speaker be a viable candidate for the role?
“I think the challenge with him is that having confessed and acknowledged infidelity, he seems to not necessarily be an advocate for it, but it’s something I would consider, I suppose,” Biderman shares.
We reached out to Cain’s camp for comment with no response.

Wildly popular infidelity dating site AshleyMadison.com promises members an “Affair to Remember” within three months or their money back.
The naughty folks at AshleyMadison.com have struck again. In the wake of Oprahs new series “Why Men Cheat,” the dating site specifically designed to help married people cheat on their spouses has announced a brand new promotion. Members who purchase an Ashley Madison “Affair Guarantee” Package and don’t experience an Affair to Remember within three months will receive a complete refund. Take that Match.com! According to Ashley Madison President, Noel Biderman, “Oprah wants to know why men cheat. Because they can! Particularly on Ashley Madison.”
This offer will top off a controversial summer for the site which they kicked off by erecting a risqué billboard in the middle of Times Square! AshleyMadison.com made headlines again last month when they began running commercials on ESPN. The ads ignited a national debate over whether the 1st amendment also protected the horny.
Summer of 2008 truly was especially hot for Ashley Madison. Their membership grew exponentially in July and August as Madonna and A-rod became “soul mates”, Sienna frolicked with Balthazar, and John Edwards got caught with his pants down.
According to Biderman, “August was Ashley Madison’s biggest month in its six year history. With over 2.5 millions members spread over all 50 states and a new member joining every 20 seconds, I feel 100% confident offering our members an Affair to Remember or their money back. No questions asked.” Ashley Madison is the world’s largest dating service for men and women who are currently in relationships but looking for more. The site has been featured everywhere from Larry King Live to Howard Stern, CNN, Ellen, Fox News, 20/20, Extra!, and countless others.
According to the August issue of Maxim, “In the Brave new world of illicit online dating, you no longer have to tell lies on the back end. With more than two million subscribers worldwide, advertising on network TV, in print, and on the radio, and billboards soaring above the L.A. skyline, the six-year old Ashley Madison is the biggest and most profitable infidelity site.”
