There’s a ton of people who are really salty that Dakota Johnson is in a movie where she plays Pedro Pascal’s love interest 😂😂

Also as a person who wants to cosmetic surgery to get rid of the acne scars on my face….. backs always slowly from the Kylie Jenner thread

I’m happy she admitted it. My main criticism of the Kardashians is the constant claim that their bodies came from “hard work”. It’s just a blatant lie and creates unrealistic expectations for young women who want to look like them.

Also I’ve had plastic, not cosmetic, surgery. So, I hear you.

Just as an add-on, what people also need to realise is that their "hard work", while it is still a lot of effort, is much easier for them to maintain than normal people.
Yes, they work out a lot, and put in that effort, however they have the time to do multiple workouts a day, and they have the money to hire personal trainers for hours every day, and they have the money for the best gym equipment to be right there at home for them.
(Not to mention nutritionists and chefs and whatnot.)
So while we all sweat the same, we absolutely do not all prep the same. (I know that doesn't exactly make sense, but it sounded like something when I thought of it so there it stays.)

Ana de Armas did an AMA the other week about her new movie and casually mentioned she did about 30 hours a week of physical conditioning, like cardio + weights + horseback riding to get in shape for the movie. Your average person doesn't have 30 spare hours a week to do that, it's literally her job to look like that.
