9. Gaborey Sidibe

The Precious actress may be obese, but she also has a ton of self-confidence. She hasn’t always been comfortable with her body image, but she has learned to accept herself. “I’ve never been a small girl,” she told Oprah. “One day I had to sit down with myself and decide that I loved myself no matter what my body looked like and what other people thought about my body…I got tired of feeling bad all the time.” We love her retort to a Twitter jab at her weight: “To people making mean comments about my GG pics, I mos def cried about it on that private jet on my way to my dream job last night.” Snap!
