What is Candice’s favorite color??
Can’t say. There is no info about it.
wow is she REALLY 120 lbs??
i’m so glad! i thought she’d be like 110 or something. she’s a little underweight, if she gained like 5 more lbs she’d be fine.
There is no difference between a five pound weight gain. and her current weight. In fact, she is NOT underweight. Society is so sucked into “thin” being a bad thing because society itself is not “thin”. I would understand if she was 100 pounds flat at her height, but in all honesty, she’s absolutely fine at her current weight. Totally healthy!
I’m a year late, but yes, she is in fact considered underweight, at least in my country. Her BMI is 17.4. Anything below 18.5 is considered underweight. A “healthy” BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9.
Also, yes, a 5-pound weight gain on a smaller frame does in fact make a difference.
i am 5’9,5 like she and weight 56 too and i think it isnt unhealth 🙂
No way she is a UK size 12! I’m a size 6 and she’s way skinnier than me!
She’s probably allot taller than you making her unable to wear smaller sizes designed for shorter people. Also I doubt that the information on this site has a very reliable source /:
She’s UK size 0-2, not 12.
No she isn’t
A UK size 2 is the equivalent of a US 00
There is not even a size 0 in the UK
(A US size 0 is a UK size 4)
She might be a US 0-2 but it is more likely that she is a US 2-4 (UK 6-8).
I mean she’s thin but … girls got an ass
She was discovered at 15 not 16
no way she is at that weight. she is much more fuller figure then other skinny models. she and doutzen are curvy but masculin models and we all know that muscles weight more then fat on scale. she is probably 59-60 kg in her height because her legs so musculin. i need to be 44 kg to look like her !! dont thin so i need to look at least masculin 53 kg to look like her that makes her at least 59-60 kg !!
She looks a lot less than 128 pounds. I swear she looks less than even 100 to me.
Dude she’s 175cm she’d be dead at 100lbs lmao
Wow she is so pretty but i never though she would be that weight. I don’t think she is underweight my mom is 103 pounds and she is 46 years old. I love candice !
i want to know how candice’s whole life stared when she became a model
To me Candice Swanepoel is the definition of perfection and pure wholesome beauty.
