Emma Stone's Latest Appearance Spurs 'Scarily Thin' Comment Over Her Noticeable Weight Loss

Emma Stone's red carpet appearance at the BAFTA Film Awards has sparked conversation due to her noticeably slimmer physique.

The actress looked stunning in a halter-neck, floor-length gown, but many observers were quick to comment on her weight loss.

Even Jameela Jamil, an actress and activist known for challenging rigid beauty standards, appeared taken aback, as she took to social media to call out the "scarily thin" look of women at the ceremony.

Over the weekend, Emma Stone was among the many high-profile celebrities who graced the red carpet at the BAFTA Film Awards in London, an annual event that celebrates the best in film and draws some of Hollywood's most acclaimed actors, directors, and industry insiders.

The actress had every reason to attend, as she was nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her performance in "Bugonia."

However, when she stepped onto the red carpet in a daring dark blue halter-neck gown, many couldn't help but notice that she appeared significantly slimmer than usual.

On social media, fans had mixed reactions to Stone's look, with some being very harsh, describing the actress's slimmer appearance as "disturbing."

"Emma Stone was really skinny at the BAFTA film awards. Disturbingly so. Extremely prominent clavicles," an observer commented.

Others were more restrained, noting that while she still looks stunning, her slimmer appearance wasn't ideal.

"She's a beautiful woman, but she's starting to look like Ariana, just skin and bones," a different user remarked.

While the actress did receive support from some fans, with a few insisting she has always been naturally slim, her appearance, alongside that of several other female attendees, sparked an even more intense reaction from Jameela Jamil.

Jamil, who has long spoken out against rigid beauty standards imposed on women and is known for her outspoken activism, took to her Instagram page to deliver a passionate rant on the issue.

She described their looks as "scarily thin," adding that it was a "specifically fragile type of thin," and  she is displeased with this "beauty standard being pushed on everyone."

The actress added, "I resent the obedience of my industry, and fear the impact on impressionable people at home, thinking that this is the only way to be accepted."

"This is not the time to be frail. Women need to be strong, to fight back for our ever-diminishing rights and safety," Jamil also remarked.

Elsewhere in the rant, Jamil also suggested that appearances like Stone's were being fueled by a political agenda that encourages women to be frail.

She then turned to the caption to urge women to embrace the benefits of eating properly, framing it as an act of resistance in the fight for women's rights against the patriarchy.

"If we all collectively refused to starve ourselves, they would have to bend to us," Jamil noted.

"But we *rush* to bend first, at any cost to our mental and physical health, and that of the next generation watching. Be whatever size you wish, but please try to be as strong as you physically can. Please be difficult to steal, to beat, to break," Jamil also remarked.

Expanding on her argument, Jamil emphasized that the "war on women requires fighters," and warned that it would undermine their ability to be protected if they were "easy to carry, to chase, to batter."

In the months since Emma Stone began debuting a noticeably slimmer look, rumors of plastic surgery have continued to circulate.

However, given that Stone has not confirmed undergoing any procedures, it seems more likely that she hasn't had any work done, especially since she once shared that genetics and stress have made it difficult for her to gain weight.

"I've seen articles or comments that have addressed my weight of 'caving to pressure to be thin,'" the actress said in 2014 during an interview with Seventeen magazine, per the Daily Mail. "Keeping weight on is a struggle for me, especially when I'm under stress and especially as I've gotten older."

"That's the way my genes have decided to go, and things will change as time goes on, as does everything. So when completely untrue statements are made about me or my health, of course, a part of me wants to defend," Stone also remarked.
