How many times can you spot the letter a in:
“Exposure will help to create acceptance,” 18-year-old Madeline Stuart writes of her mission to show the world how people with Down syndrome are just as stunning as the ranks of models that she hopes to join. (Photo: Madeline getting Downs to modelling/Facebook).
It all started with a cartwheel. Madeline Stuart, 18, was having trouble with the move in her hip-hop dance class because of extra weight she’d put on. So about a year and a half ago, the teen, from Brisbane, Australia, cut out junk food and began swimming five times a week, all while continuing her other activities including cheerleading, basketball, and cricket with the Special Olympics.
That’s right — the athlete who has since shed an impressive 40 pounds — has a disability: Down syndrome. But instead of slowing her down, Stuart is motivated to do more than the average teenager. Since she lost weight, she gained so much confidence that she wants to get into modeling — specifically to show the world that beauty comes in all different shapes.

Posing professionally would just let others in on the secret. “I think it is time people realized that people with Down syndrome can be sexy and beautiful and should be celebrated,” she says, acknowledging that attitudes have thankfully already shifted considerably for the better.
