Ellen and her producers are still ignoring our demand to bring Madeline on air even though she is clearly breaking barriers in an industry that refuses to see her worth. The refusal to give her a platform is a cowardly attempt to keep the status quo stagnant. We are not backing down until they acknowledge that Madeline deserves the same spotlight as every other model.

We just hit 100 signatures and the momentum is finally building. It is time for Ellen to stop ignoring someone as talented as Madeline and give her the national stage she has earned.

This is a must! Madeline is the epitome of acceptance and understanding. A bright, beautiful young lady who has chosen to become a model in an effort to promote awareness and acceptance of people with disabilities. She's taken the world by storm and won thousands of hearts in the process.
One of my friends has Down syndrome. What Madeline is doing is truly inspiring and shows other people with Down syndrome that just because you have a disability, doesn't mean you can't achieve your dreams. Go Mady!
I applaud Madeleine for doing this... she is a gorgeous girl and we need to change society's way of thinking. It will have a huge bearing on the thinking of "The Stereotype" model and thus change the infrastructure of bullying and steretyping of people because they deem to be different...
You are beautiful, inspirational and absolutely amazing! I am a Personal Care Assistant for a five year old girl with Down Syndrome and it so comforting to know she has incredible role models such as yourself.
Madeline, you are an amazing beautiful woman and I am very excited for the change to are going to make in the world. My older brother has Down syndrome and I am looking forward to the equality that you are going to create for everyone:)Keep up the amazing work girl!!!
Such an inspiration.
Amazing and inspiring young woman
