Pushing the Boundaries 

 Harvey Guillen expressed how he felt the industry is limiting. The actor said, 

'When I first started, I felt that I was very much seen as one layer, which is the fat best friend kind of feel. After a while, it felt like there wasn't anyone trying to push the envelope on showing plus-size guys as more than that. You can be the leading man, the heart-throb, the crush, or the villain. I noticed when I got into this business, you don't want to get typecast and then go down that road, and that's where you stay.'

The idea behind the photoshoot was him baring it all. It's about being comfortable in your skin so that you can be any character. The actor explained it's been hard. 

Honestly, there are times when you doubt yourself. You go through self-loathing because you're told these things by society. "Oh, you're not your ideal weight. Oh, that's not your ideal nose, legs, butt, etc.," and it took me long to realize that I came from nothing. If I came from nothing, then I had nothing to lose, only to gain. The journey has its ups and downs, but you have to keep going. 

Guillen did a bold shoot, which was all about being comfortable in his skin and embracing himself as he said he'd been scrutinized for how he looks. This photoshoot was a way for him to inspire people like him and spread a positive message.
