Crew
Dancing her way through the haters, Whitney Way Thore is embracing her body in a world that judges people by their size. She navigates both career challenges and relationship snafus with her vivacious personality, a sense of humor and an abundance of courage. This series follows Whitney who was diagnosed with an endocrine system disorder called polyscystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) which caused her, a slender dancer at the time, to gain more than 200 pounds in one year at college. Feeling trapped in a big body, she struggled with self-doubt and negative stereotypes. Now 380 pounds and eager to continue sharing her passion for dance, Whitney has learned to embrace her body and love herself again.
AT&T made it possible for young storyteller Mike Millette to live his dreams as an aspiring filmmaker and blink-182 fan. During the two-week production, Mike and the pro crew traveled to 10 cities; filmed at 7 blink-182 shows; interviewed the band and everyone involved with the tour; blogged, tweeted, and generally reported the behind the scenes experience to AT&T and blink-182 fans.
