Loyal reader Shari J. Flynn took issue with the comments under this picture of Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson in a post I wrote yesterday. I totally agree with her assessment that there is nothing wrong with Jennifer Hudson’s body. The majority of you must be physically perfect with no flaws the way you talk about others. At some point you will all have cellulite and wrinkles if you live long enough. There is no avoiding it. You can laugh at the physical flaws of others today, but in the end Nature will have the last laugh on you.
I’m not saying you can’t express your opinions, but the challenge is in finding a tactful way to do so.

I think it is amazing that I read so much criticism and judgement about Jennifer Hudson’s body in a swinsuit. So often I read comments on your site of how people want to see pictures of real women and how they are not represented and all of these women have fake plastic bodies, but when we see pictures of a real woman with curves and a little cellulite then it is a problem. Most women have cellulite… it is a genetic problem most of the time and has little to do with weight. This was never a small woman to begin with so to continue to analyze, criticize, and judge her body is a waste of time. She looks great even amazing. She is what most REAL women look like! It is about time we see something other than the plastic OR anorexic bodies that Hollywood is filled with!
