The statement was made just months after Aguilera addressed body image concerns and denied allegations that she was taking Ozempic, a drug notorious for its impact on weight loss, especially among celebrities.
Christina Aguilera silences haters who body-shame her
Aguilera’s sultry birthday image was a reminder of her continuous fight against public scrutiny and body shaming, even though it exuded confidence. Aguilera shared how she overcame the negativity in an open interview with Glamour for their August cover story.
She stated: “I have a maturity now where I just don’t give a f**k about your opinion,” “I’m not going to take it on. It must be your responsibility to take up your space. Other people’s opinions of me are not my business.” “When you’re a teenager, you have a very different body than when you’re in your 20s,” “I started to fill out, and then that was unacceptable because it was like, ‘Oh, she’s getting thicker.’ Then I had industry people [saying]: ‘They liked your body and how you were as a skinny teenager.'”
Aguilera’s history of public criticism on her changing physique is the source of her defiance. Her appearance was a frequent topic of discussion during her upbringing in the music industry. Aguilera claims the criticism was unrelenting, ranging from being called “too skinny” in her early career to being criticized for “filling out” as she grew older.
