Dear @dailymailau @dailymail, I would like to sincerely thank you for the photos you published of me last Friday. On top of trying to remember my lines, run between the ocean and rain in 9 degree weather, and deliver a performance in which I had to appear believably warm, I had the added pleasure of being snapped by your caring and reasonable paparazzi. I would like to thank them for choosing the most unflattering pictures possible from that day and using them to write an article about me which was designed to make me look awful, suggest I am too fat for my clothes and allow my appearance to be a topic of discussion. I would like to invite the journalist who wrote that article to join me running in and out of the ocean in a bikini, being photographed by a stranger who provoked the camera crew, and look flawless for the entire duration of that set. I wonder, do these paparazzi and journalists have children? Partners? I can guarantee they would never write a bad word against the people in their lives or publish unflattering photos of them for the world to see. Have they ever considered that making a fellow human being feel ashamed of themselves by creating content designed with that goal in mind is in itself shameful? I doubt it. Finally, to the delightful people who wrote fat shaming comments under that article: how would you feel if someone said those things about you? Or if they made your loved one cry because they said it to them? These are the types of comments that lead to the development of depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. PS to the man who said I had no curves and look like a refrigerator- don't be mean to refrigerators- they are keeping all my food cold so I can be juicy news for you all to comment on 💋 #dailymail

“Finally, to the delightful people who wrote fat shaming comments under that article: how would you feel if someone said those things about you?
