18-Year-Old With Down Syndrome Plans to Change the Modeling World

Her doctors even said that she wouldn't ever achieve anything but this girl is already going places!

Madeline Stuart is an 18-year-old who loves to dance, play sports, and perform in front of audiences, according to her Facebook page. She also is an aspiring model with Down syndrome. Stuart hopes to follow in the footsteps of American Horror Story actress Jamie Brewer, who, earlier this year,
became the first person with Down syndrome to ever walk the runway at New York Fashion Week.

Stuart hopes that her "modelling will help change societies view of people with Down Syndrome" and that "exposure will help to create acceptance in life."

Her mother Rosanne, who helps run Madeline's Facebook, told BuzzFeed "I think it is time people realized that people with Down syndrome can be sexy and beautiful and should be celebrated." She also said  "Things are changing every day and people are more accepting of what they don't understand yet."

Though both her Facebook and Instagram pages were started earlier this month, Stuart already has more than 100,000 followers in total. The response from her new fans has been overwhelmingly positive.

What an inspiration!

Stuart you are beautiful!
