'Ugliest Woman on YouTube' shows us what true beauty is
5/7/2012It's humiliating enough to be ridiculed as being unattractive, but how would you react if you were labeled the world's ugliest woman on YouTube? While many of us would curl up in a ball and never face the world again, 23-year-old Lizzie Velasquez tells her critics to suck it in this inspirational clip. Velasquez, one of only three people in the world with an undiagnosed syndrome that has drastically altered her appearance, explains how she's transcended the merciless taunting that made her life a living hell. She's now in her sixth year of motivational speaking, has published her first book and is about to graduate college, seeking her "revenge through ... accomplishments and determination." Now that's simply beautiful.
How will Lizzie inspire you?
