Why do you think so?
Do you mean why do I think it unusual that she got into BB as a women from the middle of nowhere USA and went so far with it?
Well those areas of the US are more like huge farm lands the towns are fairly small and not really into any fringe type trends or ways of life. These areas are way behind the times usually. Secondly there had to be about 0 FBB for her in her local area to model herself after and motivate her. I just find it fascinating a girl from the middle of Illinois would aspire to become Ms Olympia. If you knew the middle of Illinois (as I do cause I live in the state) and know what it is like in central Illinois you would understand it is about as far from what BB is typified as as you can get. Knowing the demographics of the area it just blows me away that Kim would become Ms Olympia.
Now tell me Ms O came from LA or Vegas or even NYC and I would not bat an eye but Mattoon Illinois! Now that makes me think how she ended up there?
I think its very cool and I would enjoy hearing how Kim got into it and what it was like for her.
STella may have some insight on this as well
Well I re read your ? and at first did not see the bold "Very cool" What i wrote above also helps explain so I will leave it
The reason I think its cool that she did her own thing is she had the courage to stand out and be different. What made it especially cool is she did it from an area as described above. Where that kind of lifestyle was very uncommon, if even ever seen before by many.
