In today's Pravda, the harrowing tale of Simona Halep (17, 34DD). She is planning a breast-reduction. Apparently - and I use this word advisedly when repeating anything from Pravda - this announcement 'caused panic among Halep's fans', who have started to collect signatures to petition her not to have the surgery.
She says they weigh twelve unwieldy kilos and she can't play normally any more, and this is her career; they say her breasts are part of UNESCO's legacy. In case my implicit editorialising is at all subtle, which I doubt, I think 'they' are bunch of weirdos who should get a grip.
(You can search for pictures yourself, by the way. Almost all the ones you'll find were taken to catch her breasts in full extension. Yes, yes, it's an entertainment business, blah, but this is a seventeen year old girl and although I started this post finding it funny, I now am finding it a bit grim.)
