Twenty-six years later, there are still people who laugh at Kate Winslet during the "Titanic" period, and even say something like this:
"If it weren't for Rose being so fat, Jack wouldn't have died."
So in a recent interview to promote "Avatar 2", Kate Winslet finally publicly responded to those who laughed at her.
"Why are they so mean to me? I'm not even fat! ”
"I was young and trying to understand the changes in my body."
"It was bullying that bordered on abusive abuse."
In fact, in her decades-long career, Kate has battled appearance anxiety more than once.
The poster of the high-scoring American drama "East City Nightmare" starring her was even asked by her to be redone on the grounds that "please put my wrinkles back in their original place".
Not only Kate, more and more actresses began to calmly embrace their most authentic selves.
The Internet "photo trick" Madonna, who once trimmed his photos without a wrinkle at all, looks a little different lately.
In the video she shared on Tik Tok, we can see her in a relaxed natural state.
Although it is not as flawless as in the retouched photos, it is still very well maintained.
Without the blessing of heavy makeup, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and freckles on her face are naturally exposed, and she looks naturally relaxed, and she seems to no longer be attached to flawless photos and begins to face the gifts of the years calmly.
Singer Doja Cat feels sexually unacceptable on stage, and his avant-garde styling and makeup are simply super spicy little wildcats.
But away from the spotlight, she is a completely different "face", and on her Instagram and Twitter, there are many selfies that are too plain to be true.
This is not the kind of "plain makeup" that some celebrities have under elaborate lighting and nude makeup, and you can also see acne marks, pores, wrinkles and high hairlines in Doja Cat selfies, which is completely the other extreme of the smashing filter.
There are many popular people, and her self-release has naturally been ridiculed by some netizens, and the flaws in the lens have been infinitely magnified.
But Doja Cat obviously doesn't care, these pure makeup photos and those delicate makeup selfies interspersed, sister can be very beautiful, can also be very real, idol baggage, appearance anxiety and so on, are all lost.
Therefore, some people who like her say that watching Doja Cat's daily life, they feel that their anxiety on appearance is much relieved, and they will no longer be so careful and nervous.
Supermodel, this title of impeccable appearance and figure, should make people care more about their appearance, but Bella Hadid, a supermodel who has been in the limelight in recent years, is an anti-correctional expert.
“Purely me... Fresh out of bed" She once posted on Instagram that she had just woken up, and there were imperfections on her unpolished face.
also once in a long article that dissected his heart, accompanied by his haggard state of plain face. This girl, who was also plagued by anxiety, has now learned to face herself frankly.
Halsy also popped her postpartum state, generously posting her stretch marks and the loose body that has not yet recovered after giving birth, and speaking out for pregnant women.
Not all women will restore their girlish figure overnight after giving birth, these lines and the fat left behind are the normal state, and there is no need to misunderstand the birth image of female stars against the sky, resulting in low self-esteem and anxiety.
There are also some actresses, although they do not "let go of themselves" like this, but they have also received a lot of abuse and attacks because of their appearance.
Florence Pugh, the actress who is currently in the limelight in Hollywood, starred in the Marvel movie "Black Widow" last year, playing Yelena, the widowed sister's sister, as the new "Black Widow" successor, but was attacked by a large number of netizens.
Netizens think that she is ugly, fat, stout, poor proportions and other offensive critical words, thinking that she and the widow sister are not sisters at all, and dare not imagine how bad the future "black widow" will be taken over by her.
As popularity increased, those bad reviews also spread beyond the screen.
Florence previously attended the Valentino Fall/Winter 2022/23 haute couture runway, wearing a pink sheer dress with a flowing yarn skirt.
But because of this, she was ridiculed and abused on the Internet, and netizens criticized her for being too short, in bad shape, and even her breasts were too small and peaceful and did not have a chest patch to be pointed at by these viewers.
But it is such a derogatory Florence who was degraded by netizens, known to the public for works such as "Lady Macbeth", "Midsummer Night's Horror", "Little Women" and other works, and has been nominated for many international awards including the Oscar, and is evaluated as "Hollywood's next top actor".
In the face of those bad comments, Florence did not care at all.
"In this circle, you don't see unrepaired eyebrows, you don't see sweat stains, eye bags, spots, you're a canvas, and then they'll make you what they want you to be... But what I think is, this is my figure, just this tall and heavy, I want to be such a person. ”
Netizens' pickiness about her has nothing to do with her acting skills.
A few months ago, in the hit drama "Pachinko Game", the heroine of partner Lee Min Ho, Kim Min-ho, who played a girl charity, was also evaluated by netizens as "not good-looking", "too many spots on the face", and "not worthy of Lee Min Ho".
But it is also this newcomer who "has a nose that is not high enough" and "has not good enough demeanor", but shows the tenacity and fragility of the girl in the face of the throbbing of love and the turbulent years of charity in a meticulous and natural way.
Her expectation for her character and series is that people will feel love, family and sacrifice when watching Pako, so that generations can understand each other in the span of charity from youth to old age.
It can be seen from this expectation that Kim Min-ha, who is not the first beauty at first sight, her plain face and not exquisite are completely for the role of the role, making the role form of charity, a woman at the bottom of society, look more grounded and full of the original natural beauty of that era.
The last partner male god, who was sung by the audience for his appearance, was also Jin Gaoyin, but it was also this atypical beauty who created the classic "Lonely and Brilliant God-Ghost" that people want to watch every winter.
Whether it is the Internet celebrities mentioned above or artists, they have turned their flaws into unique personal characteristics, which are difficult to imitate and surpass, and use their abilities to create works that are finally affirmed.
So, is it really necessary to conform to the aesthetic of mainstream orientation?
Over the years, many topics and hot topics such as #reconciliation with plain face#, #rejection of appearance anxiety# and so on have reflected people's reflection on appearance, as well as ideological thinking and progress.
But can we really let go of our preconceptions and start seeing the world around us without prejudice?
From the fact that the "bottom hot boy" endorses Cha Bai Dao, we can see the naked ridicule and opposition, all because of his appearance, we can see that the answer to this question is actually not so optimistic.
In the slogan of reconciliation with plain face, in fact, people are still pursuing appearance and figure, arming delicate to the bone, such as "A4 waist", "comic waist", "right angle shoulders", "high skull roof" and other concrete standard words emerge one after another.
Social media is full of retouched "perfect photos", and the more impeccable they are, the more they reflect people's inner anxiety and anxiety about their appearance.
And projected on the screen, is to nitpick those who are stared at, at this time, it seems that netizens have forgotten their own who once shouted to reconcile with plain face, forgotten the self who calls for inclusiveness, and forget what beauty is.
Jiang Sida said in the conversation with Gaga Hammer Nalissa that when used as a word, beauty and ugliness are opposites, there is a definition, and if there is a definition, there is a standard.
However, in the changes of the times, we need to accept that the scale in everyone's mind is different, and the form of embodiment is also different. There are some subjects that do not necessarily conform to the mainstream aesthetic visually, but they will bring us good feelings.
Going back to the beginning of this article, from a practical point of view, perhaps they are not so in line with the mainstream aesthetic when they remove their delicate makeup, but can this be a reason for them to be blamed?
When one day people can calmly let go of their appearance anxiety and learn to truly accept themselves, they will realize that the measure of beauty is completely different because of inclusiveness.
People eliminate prejudices due to appearance, do not have to feel pain in order to cater to the public aesthetics, and do not feel anxious because of their own "imperfections".
When the day comes, everyone can be comfortable being themselves and accept all the different, individualized people, and that will be enough.
