Sam Smith nälgis enne pildistamist nädalate kaupa

Inglise laulja Sam Smith oli areenile tõustes ümarate vormidega roosipõskne nooruk. Aastatega läbis Sam vapustava muundumise ning sai trimmis figuuri eest ohtralt kiita, kuid nüüd tunnistab ta: selle taga on sügav enesejälestus.

Laulja avaldab Instagramis rannafoto ning toonitab: ei tee seda eneseimetlusest, vaid selle taga on pikk ja piinav võitlus alaväärsustundega. Sami sõnul oli tal varem kombeks enne fotoseansse nädalate kaupa nälgida. Kuid hiljem vihkas ta ikkagi kõiki oma pilte.

In the past if I have ever done a photo shoot with so much as a t-shirt on, I have starved myself for weeks in advance and then picked and prodded at every picture and then normally taken the picture down. Yesterday I decided to fight the fuck back. Reclaim my body and stop trying to change this chest and these hips and these curves that my mum and dad made and love so unconditionally. Some may take this as narcissistic and showing off but if you knew how much courage it took to do this and the body trauma I have experienced as a kid you wouldn’t think those things. Thank you for helping me celebrate my body AS IT IS @ryanpfluger I have never felt safer than I did with you. I’ll always be at war with this bloody mirror but this shoot and this day was a step in the right fucking direction 👅🤘🏼🍑

Nüüd on Smith lapsepõlvetraumade kiuste otsustanud oma keha üle uhkust tunda. Ta ütleb, et ei taha enam muuta oma rindkeret ja puusi ja ümaraid vorme, „mis on mu ema ja isa tehtud ning mida nad tingimusteta armastavad“.
