‘My Big Fat Fabulous Life’ Star Whitney Thore Denies Using Photoshop: ‘I Will Never Manipulate My Photos’
Setting the record straight! My Big Fat Fabulous Life star Whitney Thore took to Instagram on Saturday, June 8, to slam trolls who accused her of photoshop … and she’s got the receipts!
After the 35-year-old shared a photo with her boyfriend for his birthday on Friday, June 7, fans claimed she edited it to look thinner. However, Whitney said that wasn’t the case and even posted a screenshot displaying several pics from her photo gallery of the same day to prove her point.
“Sometimes the internet KILLS ME,” she began her Instagram caption. “In my last post, I was trying to celebrate my boo’s birthday (thank you for all the sweet compliments and birthday wishes for @severinbro7!) but I keep seeing accusations of me using photoshop.”
She then clap-backed in the best way. “I’m not sorry my face doesn’t always look as fat as you want it to. I will never, NEVER manipulate my photos digitally to make myself look thinner. So here ya go, straight from the camera roll. You’re welcome for the cleavage pic, too,” she concluded the caption.
In April, Whitney said that haters always look for something to pick on. It doesn’t matter whether she’s losing weight or looks the same — they seem dissatisfied. “They don’t want to see you working out, and it’s so ridiculous because the people who maintain that I should lose weight should be applauding me, if that’s what they think I should do, and yet they still find a way to criticize me,” she told People at the time. “It’s just fat phobia and I don’t listen to it.”
The brunette beauty made it clear that she works out mostly for health, not necessarily for her looks. “The thing is, exercise is a healthy behavior, it’s something you can do or not do,” she told the outlet. “Whereas losing weight is not a behavior that you can just do. You can lose weight or you can not, but regardless exercise will benefit you in a million other ways.” So true!
