“No one came to her birthday. Now millions follow her.” 😳💔 She was once called “the ugliest girl alive” — now her new photos are breaking the internet. See how Lizzie turned pain into power in the article below 👇
Today’s article is about the life and career of Lizzie Velasquez. Many of you know her as «the ugliest girl on Earth» because of her distinctive look and extreme thinness. However, far not everyone knows the full story behind her unique «image».
She was born prematurely with a rare syndrome Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch. For a long time she was unable to gain weight and needed to be fed every 10 minutes. From the very first days of her life Lizzie was different from all her peers. No one ever attended her birthday parties missing no chance to call her «ugly» and «unwanted».
20 years have passed and now Lizzie is all grown-up. She started to film motivational videos and participate in TED talks inspiring millions all over the world. Currently, over 100 thousand people actively follow her.
«Beautiful inside and outside!», «Envy silently! Only few have such a big heart!», «She is the most generous and intelligent personality I have ever known in my life».
