Jennifer Aniston Shuts Down Body-Shamers with Perfect Statement

Jennifer Aniston has been in the public eye for a long time and has endured her fair share of fake gossip, body scrutiny, and more.

You may remember, last year the 48-year-old actress wrote an essay about body shaming, and she was recently asked by Vogue if she feels anything has changed for women since she penned her moving piece.

“I don’t think it’s getting much better,” Jennifer told the publication. “I think the problem is the tabloids and the gossip columns taking the human body and putting it in a category. They’re either fat-shaming, or body-shaming, or childless-shaming. It’s a weird obsession that people have and I don’t understand exactly why they need to take people who are out there to entertain you, and rip them apart and bully them? Why are we teaching young women this? It’s incredibly damaging. I was finally like, This has just got to stop! I couldn’t hear this narrative anymore about being pregnant or not pregnant; you have no idea what is going on personally in our lives and why that is or is not happening and it feels….In my own brain, I’ve shifted my perspective, so who gives a sh*t!”

“If you’re going to walk out and have your nipples showing, or your belly is a little bloated, or you’re not at the weight you want to be�”you are perfect no matter what you are and no matter where you are and who cares! You have to tune out the noise, which is fine by me, because I just know that I’m happy and healthy and doing everything I can to be good in the world and to the people I work with. But, it’s hard. It’s something that people are addicted to: Salacious stories. Maybe [gossip magazines] will be dead one day. Who ever thought Donald Trump would be the President of the United States? I didn’t. I can’t predict squat anymore,” Jennifer added.
