Razor-sharp shoulder blades, protruding collarbones, Olive Oyl arms, even visible ribs—the images we’ve seen lately of some of our most visible celebrities, who have a substantial impact on our beauty standards, are troubling. “I’ve never been interested in critiquing anyone’s body and especially the bodies of women in the public eye, who’ve been historically criticized and condemned for their shape and size; in fact, I believe those kinds of observations are destructive and often malevolent,” writes Allure contributor @thisisvalmonroe. “But, after much internal debate—and debate with my editor—I felt I had to address the part of this conversation that, for me, is just too troubling to ignore: Many of the gaunt are famous women over 50, even over 60. You’re probably aware that extreme thinness is a concerning health issue for girls and young women—but for those of us in mid-life and well beyond? It can be truly disastrous.” At the link in our bio, read more about why Monroe believes that if women want to age well, they need to be aiming for the opposite of the body image that many in Hollywood currently present.
