Of the event Julia Stewart said:
I am personally so excited about this. When I started out modelling in 2005 it was literally impossible to find any modelling opportunities up here in the north of Scotland and this is just the type of thing I'd have relished. I was offered regular work - but down south, and the time and expense of travel really was a stumbling block for me. I feel so passionate about bringing this kind of opportunity to the girls up here, and to prove that you don�t have to live in London to make a go of modelling. It�s also so important that we abolish this culture of size zero and ensure that young girls can feel beautiful regardless of size. Ubergirl fully supports this and looks forward to conveying this message to all involved and interested in the competition. Personally I have never been discriminated against because of my weight and I have never been super skinny - I think that in certain types of modelling, for example promotional and tasteful glamour, curves are welcomed and celebrated. It is definitely a myth that you need to starve yourself to go far!!
