Happy with their bodies, these 5 celebrities aren’t interested in slimming down, even if they’re receiving harsh comments about their figures or feel pressure to lose weight (particularly after giving birth), these celebs say they’re content with how they look and won’t lose weight just to please someone else. Believing it’s unhealthy to be constantly dieting, they’re accepting of how they look now. They have confidence and aren’t worried about what others think.
Adele
Adele has read comments about her figure online but pays no attention to her critics because she’s happy: “I read a comment about me on YouTube that I thought would upset me — ‘Test pilot for pies’ — but I’ve always been a size 14-16 and been fine with it. I would only lose weight if it affected my health or sex life, which it doesn’t.”
Amanda Seyfried
Amanda thinks dramatic diets aren’t good for the body: “That’s so unhealthy. I wouldn’t want to lose or gain any pounds. I don’t want to inflict that on my body, it would make everything out of sync. You’ve got to take care of your body. Sometimes, like everyone, I eat badly: I love sugar and cheese.”
Emma Watson
Emma’s weight had changed over the years but she has accepted her figure and won’t be pressured into slimming down: “I’ve accepted my body shape more as I’ve got older. I went through a stage of wanting to have that straight-up-and-down model look, but I have curves and hips, and in the end you have to accept yourself as you are. My weight has fluctuated between a (U.K.) size 6 and a 10… I keep telling myself that I’m a human being, an imperfect human being who’s not made to look like a doll, and that who I am as a person is more important than whether at that moment I have a nice figure.”
Rebel Wilson
Rebel is happy the way she is and doesn’t feel the need to be skinny: “I don’t think I could ever go skinny. I just don’t think, physiologically, that is going to happen. I do eat healthily for a week and then I go, nah, they have these beautiful ice-cream sandwiches. I don’t think my emotional eating is ever going to change.”
Zooey Deschanel
Zooey says she isn’t interested in having a model body: “Haven’t we all seen those pictures of a sexy new mom in a bikini after one month? I will not be that person. I’ve always gone my own course and never been someone who had the need to be super skinny. I like a healthy look. I don’t buy into that skinny-is-better mentality. I just eat healthy and work out and don’t worry about my weight too much. Actresses aren’t models, and most of them never wanted to be.”
