Rumer Willis Struggled After Getting Body Shamed as a Teen
As a teenager growing up in the public eye, Rumer Willis struggled with the constant criticism of her appearance.
“They said I had a huge jaw. They said I had a ′potato head,’ ” the actress, now 30, told HuffPost. “When you’re 14 or 15, I didn’t really understand having value in myself yet. My mind went to, ‘Okay, so if I get skinny or if I dress the right way or present myself very hyper-sexually and dress this way, then I’ll be valued.’ ”
“So much for me became wrapped up in that my value set is based on what other people think of me, and had nothing to do with what I thought about myself,” she said.“I definitely talked to my mom, and her thing was always, you can’t read the comments,” she said. “You could post the most beautiful picture about how you’ve gone and you’re helping kids or you’re giving your time and someone will still find a way to rag on you.
