Beauty standards are already unrealistic for us normal folks but for celebrities, there’s even more pressure to be “perfect.” People seem to forget that celebs are human, too, and you can’t just criticize their appearance simply because they’re famous. Well, these A-listers have had enough! They clapped back at their haters and set the record straight — every body is beautiful.

Christina Aguilera

After pregnancy, Christina Aguilera's body changed a bit - which is completely natural and normal. However, instead of admiring how incredibly she was pulling off being a working mother, the press decided to dwell on Christina’s size. They said that her new appearance was due to adult beverages, despite the fact that there are millions of other things that can alter a person’s body. Christina isn’t fussed, though, as she calmly stated, “As long as I am happy in my own skin, that is all that is all the confirmation I need.”

Rihanna

There’s no question that Rihanna is a trendsetter and that whatever she does will instantly become “cool.” That doesn’t excuse one journalist’s headline, though, which pondered if Rihanna’s size was going to make being heavy a “hot new trend.” Of course, Bad Girl RiRi had the perfect response, "If you can't handle me at my 2007 Gucci Mane / you don't deserve me at my 2017 Gucci Mane." Ironically, that quote became a trend and we saw it all over social media for months!

Victoria Beckham

One particular critic saw a photo of Victoria Beckham and decided to use the opportunity to criticize a whole bunch of celebs. The comment read, “Victoria Beckham’s worst fears have come true as she has joined the wrinkly hand club — which also includes Sarah Jessica Parker, Courteney Cox, and Madonna.” Wait, are celebrities not allowed to age now?! Furthermore, why are there no men in this “club”? Also, does this guy really think that anyone’s “worst fear” is a wrinkly hand?

Sarah Jessica Parker

Beauty is subjective but we can probably all agree that nobody’s ever been blinded from looking at a photo of Sarah Jessica Parker. Yet, she’s constantly criticized for her appearance. In fact, Family Guy even did a whole segment in which Sarah Jessica is a horse! Interestingly, her main criticism comes from the shape of her nose. Owen Wilson has an almost identical nose to that of the actress, yet no one seems bothered by his. Double standard? We think so.
