And
Emily Ratajkowski has opened up to Harper’s Bazaar Australia about her
‘unique message’ of using overt sexuality as a self-proclaimed feminist.
The
26-year-old shed light on the backlash she has received on social media
for her provocative stance in the magazine’s August 2017 issue.
‘There’s
this thing that happens to me: “Oh, she’s too sexy”. It’s like an
anti-woman thing, people don’t want to work with me because my boobs are
too big,’ she said.
‘What’s wrong with boobs? They’re a beautiful, feminine thing that needs to be celebrated. Like, who cares?’ she continued.
The
aspiring actress touched on the scrutiny she is under for positioning
herself as a feminist while flaunting her body in scantily clad and nude
imagery.
‘I have no problem with the backlash, because I feel it illustrates my point over and over,’ she stated.
After featuring in a n*de photo shoot for Harper’s in 2016, Piers Morgan tweeted her: ‘Do you want me to buy you some clothes? You look freezing.’
She quickly responded: ‘@piersmorgan thanks, but I don’t need clothes as much as you need press.’
Earlier that year, the London-born model made headlines when she posed n*ked alongside Kim Kardashian for a mirror selfie.
‘The
whole idea is that when Kim takes a nude selfie, she’s just seeking
attention. That’s not the issue. A woman can be seeking attention and
also make a statement. They don’t need to be mutually exclusive,’ she told Harper’s Bazaar at the time.
For
her new Harper’s spread, Emily wore Louis Vuitton, was photographed by
Pamela Hanson, styled by Naomi Smith, hair by John Ruggiero and makeup
by Jo Strettell.
