Rebel Wilson claims that she's the first plus-sized woman to ever star in a romantic comedy.

“I’m proud to be the first-ever plus-sized girl to be the star of a romantic comedy,” she told Ellen.

Queen Latifah has lead rom coms Just Wright and Last Holiday.
Mo'Nique has lead Phat Girlz and Ricki Lake played lead in the TV rom com movie, Babycakes and Hairspray.
