“Unfiltered and Fierce: How These Stars Turned Body Shaming into Empowering Comebacks!”
J.K. Rowling
Recently, Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling took to Twitter to express her admiration for tennis champ Serena Williams. She tweeted, “#SerenaSlam! I love her. What an athlete, what a role model, what a woman!” When some trolls criticized Serena’s body, she clapped back:
“‘She is built like a man’. Yeah, my husband looks just like this in a dress. You’re an idiot.” J.K. is a true hero and honestly, we don’t deserve her.
Ariel Winter
Ariel Winter is always body positive on social media. In 2017, she clapped back at haters on Instagram posting, “Something I wish people would realize…I am not TRYING to be featured on Snapchat, I am not trying to be pap’d everywhere I go. I am literally just LIVING and unfortunately, I can’t do that without paparazzi following me around every day.”
You do you, Ariel. We’ll all just follow your example.
Kelly Clarkson
A British TV host (who shall remain nameless) publically shamed Kelly Clarkson when he tweeted, “Did she eat all of her backing singers? Happy I have wide-screen.”
Kelly did not waste any time clapping back at the barely famous broadcaster. She responded, “Oh, she’s tweeted something nasty about me? That’s because she doesn’t know me. I’m awesome! It doesn’t bother me. It’s a free world. Say what you will.” Yass Kelly!
