In her TikTok video, she stitched a video of a man saying he’s always been attracted to plus-size women and thinks that the notion that they’re undesirable is made up.
Ella reacted, saying: “Boy, do I have a story for you guys.”
“When I tell you I’ve never been hit on my more men in my entire life as a size 14 woman, I don’t think you guys understand,” she added.
The curvy woman stands at 5’7” tall and says that her previous body shape and mentality made her self-conscious.
“I used to be so insecure when I was smaller, and then the bigger I got, the more confident I became,” Ella revealed.
“I used to think that men weren’t gonna like me and maybe I wasn’t their type. I’m too big or curvy,” she remembers thinking.
But Ella immediately shut down those thoughts, saying: “That is all a mindset. Switch your mindset. It’s all confidence.”
She shared a story of recently going to a bar after a red-carpet event, where she wore a black fitted gown with cut-outs across her torso to.
“I show up to this bar, and I walk in. Head high, chest up, and I just carried myself in a very very confident way,” Ella explained.
“I kid you not when I say this, the people literally split the sea,” she said, adding: “Men were looking, women were looking.”
“It was this energy that I feel like I had that was just so powerful,” she said.
Ella shared that as she was talking to a man who was asking for her number, there were two more men forming a line to speak with her.
“I have never experienced this,” she said excitedly.

She expanded on how these newly interested men fancied her because of her confidence and her body, revealing that she got 10 mens’ numbers that night.
Sharing a screenshot, one text message read: “You looked absolutely beautiful in that outfit tonight.”
Ella also shared a text from her friend, reading: “Still not over the amount of guys hitting on you. It was literally a parade.”
In the caption, she reiterated: “I promise you it’s a mindset!!!”
Some people commented that Ella, who is a Sports Illustrated swimsuit Model, has “pretty privilege” and “a perfect plus-size shape” that not all women have.
However, others backed-up her claim about confidence being key.
“THIS! Walk into every room like you belong there and eventually you’ll believe it!” someone wrote.
Another person revealed: “I’ve been mid/plus-size most of my adult life and any man I’ve ever wanted, I’ve had.”
In a follow-up video, Ella gave tips to change your mindset to be more positive along with having good posture and smiling to “pull men regardless of your size.”
She recommends “smizing” and initiating direct eye contact with men.
