From Ileana D’Cruz, Swara Bhaskar to Selena Gomez, Ashley Graham, here’s a round up of celebrities promoting self-love
View this post on Instagram I’ve always worried about how I looked. I’ve worried my hips are too wide, my thighs too wobbly, my waist not narrow enough, my tummy not flat enough, my boobs not big enough, my butt too big, my arms too jiggly, nose not straight enough, lips not full enough..... I’ve worried that I’m not tall enough, not pretty enough, not funny enough, not smart enough, not “perfect” enough. Not realising I was never meant to be perfect. I was meant to be beautifully flawed. Different. Quirky. Unique. Every scar, every bump, every “flaw” just made me, me. My own kind of beautiful. That’s why I’ve stopped. Stopped trying to conform to the world’s ideals of what’s meant to be beautiful. I’ve stopped trying so hard to fit in. Why should I?? When I was born to stand out. #nophotoshop #nobs ? @colstonjulian A post shared by Ileana D'Cruz (@ileana_official) on Oct 1, 2020 at 5:51am PDT

View this post on Instagram #instagramrealitychallenge Lot of DMs about body image shit. Lots of toxic influencers showing airbrushed photos and perpetuating weight loss rhetoric, as well as freaking people out about their weight gain from no exercise and dietary changes. Listen, try to just love your body for what it does, not for how it looks. Loving how it looks is too hard for some who need to unlearn all their self-hatred. Think of it as an amazing machine if you can. Even if it doesn’t work in all the ways you wish it would. Love what it Can do. And know even thin actresses are covered in lumps and bumps and stretch marks. You just forget that because of bullshit airbrushing. Don’t worry about losing weight right now in this moment... just survive. A post shared by Jameela Jamil (@jameelajamilofficial) on Apr 6, 2020 at 3:06pm PDT

View this post on Instagram When I got my kidney transplant, I remember it being very difficult at first showing my scar. I didn’t want it to be in photos, so I wore things that would cover it up. Now, more than ever, I feel confident in who I am and what I went through...and I’m proud of that. T - Congratulations on what you’re doing for women, launching @lamariette whose message is just that...all bodies are beautiful.

View this post on Instagram This was fun. Shot in a cool 30minutes. Put on some blush,a little lipstick & my swimsuit with freshly washed hair. No fuss. The year is 2020. Remember when we all felt like we could never be on the cover of a fashion magazine cos we just didn’t ‘fit’ the bill. Guess what? This is the new rule. The only rule. Be yourself. Love yourself. SHOW yourself. The year is 2020 ladies. We’re the new age Barbie’s with our scars & chubby thighs and all. And it feels gooooood. . . . .
