Ireland Baldwin Stands Up For Herself Against Body Shamers

Ireland Baldwin continues to spread body positivity and self-love, despite the presence of those who criticize her for doing so.

The daughter of the famous Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger has a history of clapping back against haters and breaking stereotypes surrounding women who are not skinny. 

The "A Dark Foe" actress recently took to her social media with a direct message to her haters about the beauty of being "fat."

Baldwin recently took to her Instagram page to promote self-love in the face of criticism and hate from some members of the public.

The model uploaded screenshots from her notes app containing a direct message to body shamers, informing them that she would not be backing down.

Baldwin expressed that she will not ignore all the messages she gets despite the hate, as it would mean not interacting with her fans.

The "Campus Teller" actress continued that her inspiration behind sharing her message was singer Camilla Cabello's post on body positivity.

Baldwin reminded critics that she is a "bad bitch" who will continue loving herself and her food despite a history of bullying from the paparazzi and others. She wrote:

"'Fat' is beautiful, not an insult. 'Pigs' are adorable. And smart. SO Jokes on you."

The "Grudge Match" star also revealed that her boyfriend's divorced status is a source of bullying, but she sees him as perfect.

Baldwin noted she has tried to be someone else to please the world, but all that matters is that she approves of herself, and it "feels damn good." She positively concluded:

"Thank you to those who always send me support and kind words. To those that still have a negative opinion about me, stick around. You might see something you like."

Baldwin is not one to keep silent in the face of criticism against her body, especially on her social media.

The Blast disclosed that on March 19, Basinger's beautiful daughter took to her Instagram page to address fatphobia with a mirror selfie of herself in a tight bikini top. 

Baldwin wrote in her captions that Instagram took down a set of throwback photos she posted of her covered nude body. 

The model noted that she then received a message from a critic. The person accused her of being fatphobic for posting photos of her body and spreading a harmful message by being herself. She continued:

"I want to be VERY clear about something. In NO way is what I chose to post on my page fatphobic, let alone YOUR business."

Baldwin noted that she adores all body types, adding that as long as people are happy in their bodies, it does not matter.

The 26-year-old expressed that one can be thin, fit, or fat and be unhealthy as BMI is not always an indicator of one's health, and all bodies are different. She wrote:

"All bodies metabolize differently, have different genetics. SO MANY FACTORS. I’m never pushing diet teas and horse shit supplements that don’t work on my page. I never will. I post my body because, well, it’s my page, and 2, because I am proud of how far I’ve come with my own body dysmorphia and image acceptance."

Baldwin clarified that by uploading images of herself on social media, she is not trying to encourage anybody to look like she does. She buttressed:

"I don’t unrealistically edit my images to encourage people to look like this unrealistic version of myself. I empathize tremendously with people’s pain, but sometimes I call b-llsh-t and think people need to get a grip."

Baldwin wants internet users to be able to use their pages to celebrate and express themselves in the manner they wish as people fight their own battles behind the cameras. She explained:

"Let people use their platforms to be who they want to be and be proud of themselves. You don’t know how people struggle behind the curtain. I will never allow fatphobia on my page ever and in no way is posting my own body fatphobic.”

Many viewers positively received the actress's post. A fan summed up the majority of support, writing, "You were very brave and bold for posting the photos. They were absolutely beautiful. Thank you for always sharing your truth."
