On Tuesday, June 29th, Rumer Willis shared a picture on Instagram which led to her receiving many body-shaming comments.
After seeing the reaction her post received, the actress turned to her Instagram story to address the comments made.
In her story she wrote, “I know I don’t need to do this but in a effort to spread some awareness and shed some light on body shaming tactics i felt the need to share. After the barrage of some really inappropriate comments left on my pic I posted yesterday I was left really bummed cause I was really enjoying the silly pics I took.”
“It was a weird angle that even made me feel like I looked smaller than I do in real life,” she continues in regards to the way her body looked in the picture.
This isn’t the first time the “House Bunny” actress addresses body shaming and body image issues. In an interview with HuffPost in 2019, she spoke about how body-shaming comments made her want to lose weight and change the way she dressed.
In 2019 the actress also shared a video with her fans on Instagram in which she spoke about her insecurities.
She went on to say that if she were struggling with food issues of any sort, commenting about it on her posts is “absolutely not helpful and extremely body shaming.”
She ended her post by saying, “Body shaming of any kind is something I will not stand for.”
Later that same day, Willis posted a video on her Instagram Story of her eating a kiwi with the message, “Bye trolls.”
