'Dancing With the Stars' professional dancer Cheryl Burke is fighting back at bloggers and media for criticizing her after she gained a few pounds.

"I want kids or women out there to realize you don't have to be anorexic to be beautiful," Burke tells PEOPLE.

"People will always have an opinion about you, whether it's good or it's bad. But most important is to have a secure feeling about yourself and know that you're beautiful regardless of what people think of you," she adds.

"When I was younger, I wasn't stick thin. I wasn't tall. I don't have long legs. I wasn't naturally skinny. As I grew older, I just became more comfortable in my own skin," she says.

	by atlmom2 on Oct. 9, 2008 at 3:25 PM I "heard" she said she gained 5 pounds. She gained a LOT more than 5 pounds. She is way heavier than any of the other pros. She wasn't anorexic either before.

	by ArrowheadDisney on Oct. 9, 2008 at 8:01 PM I think that compared to the earlier seasons, she did gain a little weight. She's not fat and never had been. I always thought that she had the best body out of all of them. She's toned and have all the right curves. Someone in another post wrote that she's probably just a size 6, which compared to the other dancers, whose probably size 0 and anorexic, is fat. Think Tink!
	by ArrowheadDisney on Oct. 9, 2008 at 8:02 PM This is what i'm talking about! I wish I was 'fat' as she is too! Quoting Sherry543: I wish I was as "fat" as she is!! LOL Think Tink!
