(Those are TyTy's words, not mine.) Chloe says that in the pageant, which takes place next month, she will be wearing a bikini for the swimsuit competition. Tyra was a little more interested in talking about what kind of food Chloe eats. Then Tyra asked her how people say "throw up" in England…where they speak English. Clip above.

Surely with her winning smile and an attitude that's as gorgeous as her body, she'll go far. And if she doesn't? Well, Chloe says she'd love to make a career out of being a professional waxer. Dream big, Chloe. Watch a CNN piece on the amazing Miss Marshall, above.

Now, they've hired a nutritionist named Monica Grenfell to pen an article called "A Role Model For Ordinary Women? No, Miss England Finalist Is Fat, Lazy And A Poster Girl For Ill Health." Says Grenfell: "What she's demonstrating isn't bravery but a shocking lack of self-control...Chloe is a stark reminder that obesity is now virtually normal in our society - and we should all be hanging our heads in shame...It's a total fallacy that young girls are being pressured into near-starving themselves into being too thin." If what Grenfell really wants, as she claims, is to make people have a healthier lifestyle, shaming them is not the way to do it. [Daily Mail]
