It’s interesting to me this article on an American performer uses very poor English grammar in the body of text and refers to Ms Nelson’s body weight and height only in metric terms which aren’t used in the USA… insulting and ineffective. Retired Educator
Victoria Greenroyd B.S.
Victoria, being insulted by the use of of the metric system for Tracy’s height and weight is very telling of what sort of educator you are. Vain and inept, since the only country that uses the imperial system is the US and this is a worldwide publication! Perhaps you should educate yourself on world ethics, acceptance and manners!
How to convert kilos into pounds: take the number of kilos and multiply it by 2.2. 56 kg x 2.2 = 123.2 pounds. She’s also 5 feet, seven inches.
