Everybody's got a type, and for some, Hollywood's hottest women aren't it.

Enter David Lopera, a Spanish artist who photoshops photos of female celebrities (including Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lawrence and Katy Perry) to make them look significantly larger than they actually are.

In an interview with the U.K.'s Daily Mail, Lopera says he packs the pounds on to these ladies' famous figures at the request of "chubby chasers," aka men who prefer women to be heavier or plus size. "Men are always writing to me asking if I can make their celebrities crushes look a bit fatter," he says.

Lopera, who says he's dating a "plump" woman himself, says he thinks ladies "look much better when they're overweight"—even animated ones! "I prefer Elsa [of Frozen fame] when she's a fat princess—that's a real woman right there."

So what does Lopera want us to take away from his work? "Look at my pictures," he says, "and you will see that big is beautiful."

He tells the Mail that each "manipulation" usually "takes a few days, but there have been times I've spent a whole week on just one."

That's because Lopero's clients, who commission his work for a fee, "want their fat celebs to look as realistic as possible," he says. "Some even have an idea of how much they want them to weigh. I don't stop until they look perfectly plump."
