Actress Sydney Sweeney has come out to slam the people who body shamed her. The 'Euphoria' actress recently uploaded a video on her Instagram that featured dozens of screenshots of comments about her body.
One user commented, "Quite frumpy isn't she". Another wrote, "Nothing to see here other than an average chunky Yankee girl", reports 'People' magazine.
Many of the comments seem to be taken from a Daily Mail article that showcased photos of the actress enjoying the sun while in a bikini at her Florida Keys home.
As per ‘People’, the montage of comments then cuts to footage of the ‘Anyone But You’ star working out as she intensely trains for her role as Christy Martin in an upcoming biopic about the boxer.
Her fitness video captures footage of flipping giant tires, lifting weights, boxing, and flexing her well-defined biceps.
“Well, the cat’s out of the bag thanks to some paps in bushes so here’s a little BTS from my film I’m working on right now”, Sweeney wrote in an Instagram post on October 16. "Over the past few months, I’ve been immersed in training to bring to life the story of an incredible woman—a true champion who fought battles both inside and outside the ring”.
Christy Martin, 56, was one of America's most successful female boxers who rose to fame in the '90s. She is the first woman inducted into the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame in 2016 and the first woman inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2020.
She was the first female boxer to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated back in 1996 while Ronda Rousey was the second and, to date, the latest in 2015. Martin retired from professional boxing in 2012; she survived an attempted murder in 2010 by her husband, James V. Martin, who stabbed her several times and left her for dead. He has been sentenced to 25 years in prison.
