Rumer Willis Hits Back After An Image Was Photoshopped to Make Her Jaw Smaller
Rumer Willis has taken a stand against a magazine that photoshopped her image before publishing it. Willis has a prominent jawline but in the photo it has been edited to look much smaller.
The 27 year old daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis is furious and says it’s a form of “bullying.” The actress is exremely comfortable in her own skin and doesn’t want the wrong message going out to her fans regarding her appearance.
She posted the photo on her Instagram account along with a message for her followers.
“Any friends of fans of mine who posted this I would appreciate if you took it down,” Rumer wrote alongside the snap, which also starred her sisters Scout and Tallulah.
“The photographer Photoshopped my face to make my jaw smaller and I find it really offensive for anyone to try and change the way you look so drastically.”
Rumer continued by saying: “I love the way I look and I won’t support anyone who would feel a need to change the way I look to make me beautiful. Whether or not they realize it, it is a form of bullying, which I won’t stand for.”
Her confidence hasn’t always been so strong. There was a time when Rumer felt the pressure to look like her famous mum. She previously opened up about her insecurities and how childhood bullies made her consider plastic surgery.
Speaking on Dancing With The Stars, she said: “People would say I looked like a man or something called a ‘buttaface’, which means everything good but her face, or potato head was the big term that everyone used a lot, basically making fun of the way I looked.
“My mum, who is one of the most stunning women I’ve ever met and who everyone was comparing me to, saying that you look more like your very masculine father than your beautiful Mum.
“For years I thought ‘Maybe I can get plastic surgery. If I change my face or get really skinny, that will be it, that will be the answer’ and it’s not.”
What an amazing role model she is for young women everywhere!
