Unfortunately, we’ve been seeing a lot of body shaming happening to high-profile women this year.
Kelly Clarkson, Pink, Selena Gomez and Chrissy Swan have been targeted by nasty “fat” insults in recent months, and all three of them responded with absolute class and good humour.

On the other side of the coin, in April Giuliana Rancic addressed the ongoing criticism her slender frame cops from the public, stating, “I’m sorry that some people think I’m disgustingly skinny, as they put it, but there’s nothing I can do… I want to look fit and beautiful and sexy, and I can’t.”
Now, Australian actress and model Isabelle Cornish has condemned her body shamers on Instagram, Only to receive instant backlash.
The Puberty Blues star, who is soon launching her own health and fitness website, is regularly criticised by her followers for being ‘too thin’. Last week, Cornish — yes, she’s Abbie’s little sister — finally hit back by sharing a photo of herself at the beach (below) and a firm message for her detractors.
"No one should feel like their body isn't 'good enough'. Everyone is different. There is no perfect one size for all. I may be smaller than other people but I am fit and healthy! I work out, I am very athletic and I nourish my body with a good diet," the 20-year-old wrote.

"Body-shaming in all forms is inexcusable. Stop comparing yourself to others and spread love and confidence not negative body image messages!"

I think she looks fabulous. She's got full breasts. She's got muscle tone in her arms. I would call her figure LITHE, not skinny. There's a difference.
I happen to be a thigh gap lover. I think her thighs look particularly lovely. I do not like plump thighs.
This is a very healthy body. I would not call the skinny at all. Ribs are not showing. A little hip bone is showing but that's fine.
