About Me

Tagline
Body Gossiping - because she loves REAL BEAUTY!
Me, Myself, and I
I'm Ruth, 27, actor and presenter, and full-time mum of 'Body Gossip'.

'Body Gossip' is a call to arms for everyone in the UK who has something to say about their body.

I know I'm not alone when I say I'm fed up with the negative beauty ideals we are faced with every day. It seems that there's one form of acceptable 'beauty', and if you don't meet those sky-high standards, you lose. Well I don't agree with that. I know that every one of us is gorgeous, because we're unique. And I know that we'd all probably like to have our say about our own, individual beauty, and celebrate those bits that we love, and have a good old moan about the bits we don't!

Me? I like my eyes and my smile, and I really don't like my feet.

You? Enter the 'Body Gossip' National Writing Competition and tell us!

    See about the body gossip?
    I entered over the website a while ago
    But I'm not sure if you got it.
    I tried sending it by email and you said you couldn't receive it.
    And by then it was too late, because I don't normally read mail
    Because of the absolute garbage on it :| :L


    Oh well :|
    No worries I guess.
    There honestly isn't any point moaning is there? :L

    Hey Ruth!
    Not long to go until the deadline... how are you feeling?

    Sorry I couldn't make it to the Vitality show... but lack of cash and a few hundred miles kinda slowed my journey to a bit of a standstill ;)

    Hope it went well though,
    Take care

    Hello Ruth

    We met at the Vitality Show!
    I think what you are doing is an inspiration to yourself and also others. it will help people feel confident about their looks. I always worry about the way I look and what other people will think of me but I think beauty is in the inner heart.'Soul'. I am going to also take part in the competition at the moment I am planning out my ideas. Then I will put it into a story. I hope the rest of the days at the Vitality Show go well and prove to be successful!
    Keep up the fab work!

    Writing this at the Vitality Show in Olympia, sat on the famous Body Gossip sofa - am here inviting everyone at the show to write one sentence about their body on the sofa, covering it in Body Gossip!

    Got here really early so have a chance to write a quick message to everyone - really excited about the next 4 days, especially Greg James coming down on Saturday!

    If you can, come to the Vitality Show and say hello - it's at Olympia Exhibition Centre in London, you can buy tickets at www.vitalityshow.co.uk and I'm on stand A100 - would love to see you - and come and sign the sofa!

    Love, Ruth x
