Lena Dunham chiede alla rivista Glamour di non essere photoshoppata e su instagram commenta la scelta.

Lena Dunham, l’attrice di Girls, ha ringraziato la rivista americana Glamour per non aver photoshoppato il suo corpo sulla copertina della rivista.

Dunham ed il cast di colleghe Jemima Kirke, Zosia Mamet ed Allison Williams erano in posa per la copertina del nuovo numero della rivista.

Dopo aver condiviso le immagini del servizio su Instagram, Dunham ha ricordato che ha ricevuto “insulti nauseanti” per il suo corpo da troll on-line, ed ha sostenuto che le immagini non-ritoccate inviano un messaggio importante.

Okay, here goes: throughout my teens I was told, in no uncertain terms, that I was fucking funny looking. Potbelly, rabbit teeth, knock knees- I could never seem to get it right and it haunted my every move. I posed as the sassy confident one, secretly horrified and hurt by careless comments and hostility. Let’s get something straight: I didn’t hate what I looked like- I hated the culture that was telling me to hate it. When my career started, some people celebrated my look but always through the lens of “isn’t she brave? Isn’t it such a bold move to show THAT body on TV?” Then there were the legions of trolls who made high school teasing look like a damned joke with the violent threats they heaped on, the sickening insults that made me ache for teen girls like me who might be reading my comments. Well, today this body is on the cover of a magazine that millions of women will read, without photoshop, my thigh on full imperfect display. Whether you agree with my politics, like my show or connect to what I do, it doesn’t matter- my body isn’t fair game. No one’s is, no matter their size, color, gender identity, and there’s a place for us all in popular culture to be recognized as beautiful. Haters are gonna have to get more intellectual and creative with their disses in 2017 because none of us are going to be scared into muumuus by faceless basement dwellers, or cruel blogs, or even our partners and friends. Thank you to the women in Hollywood (and on Instagram!) leading the way, inspiring and normalizing the female form in EVERY form, and thank you to @glamourmag for letting my cellulite do the damn thing on news stands everywhere today ❤️ Love you all.

“Non importa la dimensione, il colore, l’identità del genere, ma c’è un posto per tutti noi nella cultura popolare per essere riconosciuti come belli.”

“Gli haters dovrebbero essere più intellettuali e creativi nel 2017 con i loro insulti perché nessuno di noi si spaventa per i mugugni scritti da persone senza volto, dai blog crudeli, o anche dai partner ed amici. Grazie alle donne di Hollywood (anche su Instagram!) che stanno aprendo la strada, normalizzano la forma femminile in ogni sua forma, e grazie a @glamourmag per aver lasciato la mia cellulite in tutte le edicole del mondo oggi”.

La sesta ed ultima stagione di Girls inzierà su HBO negli Stati Uniti e Sky Atlantic in Italia nel mese di febbraio.
