Fired for having big breasts?

Meet Amy Erin Blakely. I have been reading recently about her and her claims that she was fired from her job at a children's charity called The Devereux Foundation for gender discrimination. Get this because her breasts are too big and they were distracting for her co workers.

Oh boy this is a classic on several levels. The first is that her attorney is Gloria Allred. Yep the same "woman's rights" attorney whose previous clients have included porn stars and strippers who shook down Tiger Woods for money during his infidelity episode earlier this year. If you aren't familiar with Gloria let me tell you I am not a fan. She has done some good things like representing Amber Frey the mistress of wife killer Scott Peterson and the Brown family during the OJ case but the shaking down of Tiger Woods whether he deserved it or not was just too much for me. She even represented Debrahlee Lorenzana recently, the woman who claims she was fired from Citibank for being "too sexy." I think Gloria is an opportunist and an ambulance chaser.


OK, back to the breasts. Now just looking at the pictures here of Ms. Blakely I would agree with her being attractive because she is but the case here seems to revolve around her breasts. A few quotes:

"It was very humiliating to know that senior members of our management team would focus on my breasts as opposed to my performance on the job," said Blakely at a Los Angeles press conference Wednesday. " She also alleges that someone in management talked about how large her breasts were and that she needed to 'hide them,'" Allred told the station.

See, they keep playing up the breast thing because it's what sells and what gets the headlights errr I mean headlines. I think they have a "tiny" problem though. Where's the big breasts? I have googled and checked numerous news stories and none of the pictures show Ms. Blakely as having anything other than normal sized breasts?? Trust me, I have looked.

I think this case comes down just as the other recent Gloria Allred cases. She is trying to use the media to drum up pressure for some quick cash and not representing woman's rights. The proof is in the pictures on this one because I think clearly this case would be thrown out of court for "lack of evidence" so to speak.
