Simona Ventura says to La vita in diretta that she too, like Ambra Angiolini, received criticism when she gained weight, but those insults made her even stronger. The presenter encourages her followers to not care about body shaming.
Guest of Life live, Simona Ventura spoke about the case Amber Angiolini saying that she was also a victim of the infamous body shaming, which then means denigrating comments on a person’s physical appearance. In the afternoon broadcast of Rai 1 hosted by Alberto Matano many topics were discussed with various guests, e.g Super Simo she had her say, with the determination that characterizes her and with great sincerity.
The Ambra Angiolini case
Maybe not everyone knows that Amber Angiolini she said she was a victim of body shaming when she was still a little girl. Those were the times of It’s not Rai and many newspapers and also several television programs as well as teen magazines had underlined how much the presenter and singer had put on weight. At the time, political correctness did not exist and therefore the comments were particularly nasty. On her Instagram page, Amber he shared photos of “slanderous” articles and excerpts from television reports dedicated to the extra kilos he had put on. The caption reads:
Retracing my story, with the help of my friend @fabiomarantino (precious as never before), I realized the hypocrisy of TV and certain printed media; probably nothing more can be said just because they had already said so much… too much. If in that period, I was only 17 years old, someone had pointed out to me that I was no longer “carefree” instead of underlining everywhere how fat I had become, I would have tried to go back to being more “mine” than everyone else’s. Today’s problem, it is said everywhere, is the haters, but there is someone who evidently taught them a long time ago. I’m not writing this post out of victimhood, but to put things right. In the end I won a war that didn’t even have to be fought.
Simona Ventura is also a victim of body shaming
Driven by the courage of Amber Angiolini, Simona Ventura she wanted to tell what happened to her not during adolescence but when she was already an adult and working. She then expressed her disgust with her detractors Amber, who was 14 years old at the time, finally saying that the unpleasant comments about her physical appearance, instead of discouraging her, pushed her to react. Both the presenter and the account de Life live they posted an example video on Instagram:
For me, body shaming has always been a push towards recovery, that is, it has always made me so angry… when I was young, I was accused of many things, there was a period of my life where I too had gained weight, I had taken weight, then in short at our age it’s not that we are always very thin, etc., etc., and I have had many people criticize me for this, but for me the criticisms, these so-called insults, have truly made me reborn stronger than before, so welcome when they need to be done, because for me they were the greatest push towards rebirth. I have had them many times, especially from newspapers, when there were no social media, but as I have also demonstrated recently, going on air with facial paresis, which to me is precisely body shaming, that is, I don’t read the comments, I don’t watch memes, or rather memes make me have fun, they make me laugh, therefore they give me even more joy, therefore, really, I am a little different from the others, in the sense that I am not so fragile, having, having been tempered by some storm . Do it too, think about this and be reborn stronger than before.
