is a plus-size model and actress. She makes a living in the advertising world, but it’s usually for unflattering or stereotypical roles for larger women. She longs for roles that exude sexiness and sensuality since, after all, she is a woman who can feel those things herself. She is loving, caring, and loyal to those in her close circle. She believes everyone should rise together in this dog-eat-dog world. Keira is a mysterious enigma, in that her confidence is sure but not cocky, her sexiness is not forced, and she seems to know what will be hers before she gets it. She is a remnant of the classy women of color from the 40s and 50s.

is a plus-size Jersey Girl through and through. She doesn’t take any mess from anyone! Except for her mother Patricia…her mom is her kryptonite and one soft spot. Dee Dee says what everyone wants to say but is too scared to do so. Her matter-of-fact attitude ultimately leads to getting stuff done while everyone else is too emotionally tied up. She is a mover and a shaker and stops at nothing when a goal is in sight or it’s something she wants. That’s what keeps her at the top of her game as a Sports Agent. Some people love her, but most people hate her because they want to be her: fierce and completely in control of their future.

is a plus-size diva who loves going on adventures and trying new things. She is an aspiring comedian with a quick wit and sassy mouth. She is white and was adopted by a black family in a predominantly black community. She learned to use comedy and her ‘attitude’ to diffuse what could have been hostile situations when she was in school. If she could make people laugh, they would see past her color. She is proud of who she is and even though 90% of the world may find her different from being raised by black parents, she is confident and proud of how she was raised. Just as much as she can dish it, she can take it in the jokes department.

he (funny guy) still can’t believe his luck getting the best job of his life working at the sports agency. Injuring his knee as a redshirt for an NFL team was a blessing in disguise.
