10 Hollywood Babes Who Prove Every Body Is Beautiful

After the Girls star and creator posted a photo of herself scantily clad on Instagram, she removed it. Usually Lena is very open about sharing images of her curvaceous body, but this time, she shut down the Internet trolls by taking down the image and sharing a new one with the following caption:

"I just deleted a pic of me in my boyfriend's underwear. Just an FYI, I don't delete because I'm ashamed of my body — I delete because certain pics become hotbeds for negativity. You think I want a teenager visiting my page and seeing a zillion comments about how fat I am? No, because that is hurtful to any person struggling, comparing, contrasting."

The comedienne is loud and proud about her body, and she even created a spoof of 12 Angry Men for her show Inside Amy Schumer, concerning the criticism she's received. During the sketch, a round table of male jurors debates if Amy is "hot enough for TV." (She is.) Then she also shared this almost-nude image on Twitter with the tweet:

"I am a size 6 and have no plans of changing. This is it. Stay on or get off. Kisses!"

At 57, this Orange Is the New Black star has accepted herself. In a video for Style Like U feature, she explained her theories on women's bodies today, while stripping down to her sports bra and boxers.

"I am a proud fat woman, period," she said. "We live in a fat-ist society that expects, especially of women, certain things, especially around their weight and it's bullsh*t. . . . It freaks me when I am standing next to a woman who is maybe 100 pounds soaking wet, talking about how fat she is . . . Men can weight any f*cking weight they want. The can be any weight they want. No one gives them sh*t about it . . . Obesity is an issue. I get it — it's a problem. It causes a lot of things that people need to be aware of, right? But the flip coin of that is it's mostly genetics, and there's nothing wrong with it. It's just that simple. Fat is not ugly. In fact, it's quite beautiful."

After a UK personality Katie Hopkins tweeted criticisms of Kelly's postbaby body ("Jesus, what happened to Kelly Clarkson? Did she eat all of her backing singers?" she said), the singer brushed it off. Kelly told Heat magazine:

"She's tweeted something nasty about me? That's because she doesn't know me. I'm awesome! It doesn't bother me. It's a free world. Say what you will . . . I've just never cared what people think. It's more if I'm happy and I'm confident and feeling good — that's always been my thing. And more so now, since having a family — I don't seek out any other acceptance."

No one is getting the best of Pink! When she received negative feedback via Twitter about her weight, she responded on the social media venue with this PSA:

"I can see that some of you are concerned about me from your comments about my weight. You're referring to the pictures of me from last night's cancer benefit that I attended to support my dear friend Dr. Maggie DiNome. She was given the Duke Award for her tireless efforts and stellar contributions to the eradication of cancer. But unfortunately, my weight seems much more important to some of you. While I admit that the dress didn't photograph as well as it did in my kitchen, I will also admit that I felt very pretty. In fact, I feel beautiful. So, my good and concerned peoples, please don't worry about me. I'm not worried about me. And I'm not worried about you either. I am perfectly fine, perfectly happy, and my healthy, voluptuous, and crazy strong body is having some much deserved time off. Thanks for your concern. Love, cheesecake."

Growing up in the spotlight has given Hilary a thick skin, and she refuses to fall for the stress society puts on Hollywood stars. She said the following in Shape:

"There's so much pressure to always have it together, and I'm not falling for it. You see supermodels who have babies, and the next week they look as if they were never pregnant. That was not the case with me. Some days I feel great, others I feel pretty normal, and that's acceptable."

Perhaps Danielle (Taystee from Orange Is the New Black) could have been a Spice Girl in her past life, because she is all about girl power. She preached her positive thoughts via an Instagram of her working out in just a sports bra and leggings:

"Today I decided to do something I've never done before: Go to the gym with my SHIRT OFF!! I thought I'd share why this is significant for me. I've always wanted to do this but have felt shameful and have told myself "until my body is perfect I'm forbidden." Today my inner being told me to turn up the notch on my self-love. I should not be ashamed of my body. I'm not a walking imperfection! I'm a Goddess. Secondly, I'm a confident woman! That doesn't stop once I take off my spanx. Lol Sometimes it's a struggle. Sometimes I don't like what I see, but I have the power to change the way in which I relate to my body both physically and mentally. Today I woke up feeling beautiful and motivated to love myself and take care of the ONE body that I've been given. I'm not saying World take your shirt off, twist it round your head, spin it like a helicopter, (lol) I'm saying everyone live in your confidence. One Life. One Body. Take Care of It."

After Mindy told Vogue, "I don't want to be skinny," she received a ton of backlash from haters condescendingly praising her for accepting her size-eight body. So she went on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and cleared the air on how she feels:

"I'm also the recipient of a lot of backhanded compliments about it, where people are, like, 'It's so nice that Mindy Kaling doesn't feel she needs to subscribe to the ideals of beauty that other people do.' And I'm like, I do subscribe. They're, like, 'It's so refreshing that Mindy feels comfortable to let herself go and be a fat sea monster!' By the way, I run and work out. It takes a lot of effort to look like a normal/chubby woman."

Don't expect Kate to be apologetic about actually looking like a woman who has given birth to three children. She's also openly against photoshopping. As she told Harper's Bazaar:

"There’s a big part of me — now, more than ever before — that feels a sense of responsibility for how other women view themselves . . . I will particularly say when I look at movie posters, ‘You guys have airbrushed my forehead. Please can you change it back?’ . . .

"Take having the baby, for instance. Have I actively been on a diet to lose my baby weight? No, I haven’t. I genuinely bloody haven’t. I so didn’t want to be one of those, 'Oh, wow, she’s back in shape after 12 weeks' women. When I read things like that, I just think, 'Oh, for f*ck's sake, that's actually impossible . . . I want to keep my health and my sanity and be well fed and happy. My body will never go back to what it was, and I wouldn’t expect it to after three babies."
