Model Iona Spangenberg has become an overnight celebrity after a photo showcasing her teeny-tiny 20-inch waist went viral. Despite her unnatural figure, Spangenberg claims she eats normally -- if not indulgently.

The 30-year-old told The Sun, "No one seems to believe it, but every day I eat three big meals and I snack on chocolate and chips all the time. I just have a small stomach. It's a bit like having a natural gastric band -- if I eat too much, I feel sick."

It's a story headline that won't go away, but it's a money thing."

She added that the media makes money off "a story that has nothing to do with reality."
