Meanwhile on Insta:

the fatshaming of Riri

In case you missed it: the internet has been going completely LOCO for a few weeks now about Rihanna's ‘new’ body. And for everyone who has called her ‘fat pig’ and ‘sumo wrestler’, Riri now has a response.

What are we looking at? Rapper Gucci Mane, with the caption above: “If you can’t handle me at my 2007 Gucci Mane, you don’t deserve me at my 2017 Gucci Mane”. Of course, a big middle finger to everyone who has something to say about her body. If you’re not a boss, then I don’t know what else to say.

And yes, of course I also wonder a bit what Rihanna must have been thinking these past months. Fuck it, with that strict diet, and all the pressure? I’m going to eat whatever I feel like for a year? Christina Aguilera and Jessica Simpson do it too, and I also want to live without a personal trainer sometimes? I could understand that. It seems like hell to have a camera on every corner.

Why do we all have an opinion about it then? Because it’s human. I would also be shocked if my sister suddenly gained 12 kilos. I wouldn’t love her any less, but you still start to wonder if everything is really okay or something. You just do that. But what Rihanna ultimately does and puts in her mouth is not really our business, right? The best woman remains gorgeous. And maybe she’s head over heels in love. After all those years of exercising and watching her diet, she now eats toast with brie on the couch every evening. With her love on the left, a good glass of wine on the right, and a piece of blue cheese in her mouth. In that case: welcome to Team Curvalicious, gurlllll.
