Are T.I. and JD bringing big men back?

Everyone knows that the ladies love big and tall men because they make them feel safe and secure. Plus big men are warm and cuddly like a teddy bear. If a dude has a big gut and love handles, he scores even more points with the chicks.

But some men aren’t born with natural height or girth, so they do what they can with what God gave them.

Rapper T.I., who is infamous for his scrawny frame, packed on a few pounds before entering a minimum security federal prison facility in Arkansas last week. There is no truth to the rumors that T.I. put on weight to fight off any potential Bubbas (or Berthas) while he’s doing his time.

Jermaine Dupri is also small in stature but makes up for it with a pot belly and a big toothy smile. No wonder Janet loves all of him!

As the rap legend Heavy D once said, “the more of the beef, the more there is to squeeze.”
