Ashley Graham Claps Back With Gorgeous Pic After Journalist Disses Her For ‘Fat Positivity’
Supermodel Ashley Graham had the most epic response after a journalist used photos of her to diss the ‘fat positivity movement.’
Ashley Graham has absolutely no time for haters! The model began trending on Twitter on Dec. 19 after a journalist posted photos of her alongside a hateful tweet, which has now been deleted. The images, which were taken by paparazzi, featured Ashley wearing a gold mini dress, along with the message, “The fat positivity movement is getting out of hand.” In response, Ashley took to her own Twitter to clap back.

Ashley posted a photo of herself in the same gold mini, proudly showing off her curves in the ensemble from a side angle. “Quote tweet this with a photo of you taking ‘fat positivity’ too far,” Ashley wrote. “I’ll star.” In the picture, she’s winking at the camera as she confidently rocks the sexy cutout dress.
Even before Ashley responded to the controversy herself, she was receiving major support on social media, as thousands bashed the journalist for her hateful message. “I refuse to give this woman a retweet, but I have to point out that Ashley Graham is a goddess and s****ing on other woman for their looks is passe,” one person wrote. “We aren’t having that kind of energy anymore. Get a therapist.”
![Bella Hadid and Naomi Campbell are among supermodels strutting their stuff down a New York City street for a new fashion campaign. The catwalk beauties showcased the Fall/Winter 2021 Michael Kors Collection in Manhattan's Theater District. Ashley Graham, Helena Christensen, Alek Wek, Carolyn Murphy and Irina Shayk also appear. The collection is said to be "an ode to a city and theatre community that was rebuilding". The campaign features looks from the MK40 Reissue Capsule, a collection of items inspired by the designer's archives. The capsule comprises 15 pieces, each featuring a unique QR code inside the garment that customers can scan to discover the history behind it. “This collection, and this campaign, is a celebration of the rebirth of city life—of stepping out, finding the joy in getting dressed, and making the streets your runway. It’s my fantasy night out in the Theater District,” the fashion designer said. The campaign was shot by Inez and Vinoodh for the brand.
