While filming a video for TikTok, model Emily Ratajkowski insulted a bystander who called out, "Girl, put a shirt on."
The body-shaming remark was uttered while the gorgeous 33-year-old model was strolling through New York. The celebrity can be seen wearing black leggings and a low-cut grey vest top in the video, which was posted earlier this week. Additionally, a man told her to cover herself during a break in her video when she was strolling around the city, reported Mirror.
Over the video, she responded to his remark by writing, "Wait for it: man tells me to put on a shirt." Additionally, her post has 1.7 million views. "Famously not demure, famously not mindful" was the remark she wrote for the photo, alluding to the recent craze that is dominating TikTok.
The soundtrack for the video was taken from Charli XCX's album Brat. And it appears that her admirers are just as unimpressed. A commenter said, "Imagine saying that to Emily Ratajkowski." "Saying that to EMRATA is crazy behavior," a second fan commented. A third individual said in the meantime: "The audacity to speak to a stranger like that. You ought to wear what you want and be who you want to be." A fourth commenter, nevertheless, continued the conversation, asking, "Why put on a shirt when you literally look that good."
Emily shockingly admitted in 2021 that she had used her body as a means of gaining popularity and notoriety when she was younger. "[In] my early 20s, I really thought of myself as hustling and working the system and saying, 'Okay, I know what I can get from becoming a model and from using my body to have fame and success,'" stated the author of My Body in an interview with CBS Mornings. I even referred to it as empowerment."
Emily's career really took off when, at the age of 22, she featured on Robin Thicke's blockbuster song Blurred Lines in 2013. Emily danced with the singer in the song video while she and the other two models were nude. In her book, she also disclosed that she felt like Robin touched her breasts while they were filming.
She was promoting her book when the accusations were originally published in the Sunday Times. Robin, according to her, "returned to the set a little drunk to shoot just with me." "I felt the coolness and foreignness of a stranger's hands cupping my bare breasts from behind," she continued. I turned aside out of instinct and glanced back at Robin Thicke. Additionally, Emily stated that she experienced a "humiliation pump through [her] body."
She went on to say in her book: "I told everyone that feeling of empowerment that I had experienced when I was in the Blurred Lines video was my great breakthrough moment. However, as I've gotten older, I've realized that it's a little more nuanced, and I feel obligated to convey that to young females."
"It would be incorrect to say that capitalizing on your sexuality and your beauty as a woman is merely empowering," she continued. I have no desire to cancel anyone. For me, it was conveying the complete truth of what actually happened during that encounter. Because for a very long time, all I ever said was, "It was so fun," which it also was.
Emily continued, saying, "I don't think that taking advantage of myself is progress at all; I think that it just gave me a sense of control." I feel empowered only when I write [My Body], when I share this tale, or even when I'm just generating something, creating something. It seems like actual power."
