7. Mindy Kaling
Mindy Kaling is, without a shadow of doubt, one of the funniest people in the universe and she has never let anyone tell her that she is not worthy of success only because she is not tall, slender and porcelain-white.
We are sure that she has had to overcome a lot over the course of her career, but she has never let this bring her down and she has worked hard to get where she is today. Mindy has also been adamant about not wanting to be skinny, while still working out and taking care of her body.
She commented on some of the backhanded compliments she has been receiving concerning her weight and her lifestyle in general, telling people that it also takes a lot of hard work to be curvy.
