Ashley Graham Calls Weight Loss Drugs a 'Smack in the Face' to Body Positivity Movement
Ashley Graham says the weight-loss drug trend undercuts body positivity, while she says plus-size women will still be visible.
- Model Ashley Graham, 38, criticized the GLP-1 trend in a Marie Claire interview, calling the popularity of weight-loss drugs "a smack in the face" to the body positivity movement.
- Describing the renewed focus on thinness as "really disheartening," Graham noted a cultural pendulum swinging away from the inclusivity that defined recent years.
- Asserting that inclusivity remains essential, Graham stated that plus-size women will continue to exist, adding, "This drug isn't going to wipe out a whole statistic of women."
- Younger influencers raised on social media offer a counter-narrative, with Graham praising their platform to tell the next generation, "Be yourself, be who you want to be."
- As GLP-1 receptor agonists become increasingly popular in celebrity circles, Graham emphasizes that confidence should not be limited by body size, regardless of shifting beauty standards.
