Positive influence of celebrities on health issues
Some celebrities have a positive influence on body image discussions. For instance, the singer Lorde called out her own Photoshopped images on Twitter. She pointed out that one photo shows her with “flawless” skin, while the other is real. She tweeted, “It’s okay to have flaws.” Other celebrities, such as Rihanna, Beyonce, Melissa McCarthy, and Jennifer Lawrence, have voiced their opposition to the ideals of beauty that the entertainment and fashion industries have promoted (Monroe, 2018).
