Beth Ditto Wants To Ban Size Zero



Beth Ditto has launched a campaign to prevent clothes from being labeled "size zero".

The curvaceous rocker insisted that the US clothing size - the equivalent of a UK size four - encourages women to aspire to be "nothing".

She told Radio 1's Sunday Surgery: "It’s so obvious but so deep about our culture and what (it) says about women and their worth in their world (that) to be a size zero... is your ultimate goal.

"The biggest thing in your world is to be a nothing. That is so intense… how about getting rid of zero at all and putting a number onto it instead, even if it’s a small number?"
