Lena Dunham Slams Magazine for Calling Out Her Weight Loss

  • 7 years ago
Lena Dunham has taken Us Weekly Magazine to task for including her on the cover after her recent weight loss alongside a blurb sharing 20 slimdown diet tips.

The Girls star used the power of Instagram to say that she doesn’t want to be on the cover because its diametrically opposed to everything she’s fought her whole career for and it’s not a compliment because it’s not an achievement.

If you read the reasons she listed to why she lost weight, she has things on there like her anxiety disorder, constant nausea, the election night, constant sweaty dreams, and things like that.

Back in March Lena told Ellen DeGeneres that she was frustrated at how some people were responding to her recent weight loss because she spent six years in her career being called things like bag of milk, and baby cow, and ageing cow.

Then she went to say that if anybody was going to take the time to say something negative about her weight loss on the internet, it wasn’t someone she was particularly keen to impress anyway.

Wonder if this means she’ll ever be on their cover again.
