Summer Walker fires back at body-shaming trolls: a TikTok tale of body positivity

American singer Summer Walker took to Instagram recently as she clapped back at online users who were making fun of her body and claiming that she has a botched BBL.

She wrote via her Instagram stories that despite the negative comments about her body, she loves it and won’t be changing anything about it.

“I love my body with a fiery burning passion. Please get over it. I’m not changing or reducing anything. Idk (I don't know) why it would bother you if we’re not intimate & you don’t even know me in real life, but please block me if it offends you or keep scrolling,” Walker said.

She further added that if she does not invest her time or energy into people she does not like, then why are people doing that if they do not like her?

This comes after the “Playing Games” singer shared a fun TikTok video wearing a Dior swimsuit, which showcased her body.

This video was met with a lot of backlash online as online users made remarks about her body and claimed that her BBL looks just as bad as the person she was making fun of just a month ago.

“That time she was judging Wandi,” @bkoetz commented.

While @thandolwethuv added: “Imagine, she was making fun of Wandi.”

In June, Walker mocked South African reality TV star, Wandi Ndlovu’s BBL last month via her Instagram stories and shared a side-by-side picture of Ndlovu’s real body being photoshopped to chicken thighs.

While the multi-award winning singer found the post funny, netizens did not and instead turned things around as they also made fun of her BBL.

A few days later, Ndlovu shared a conversation between her and the singer, who clarified that she shared the post because she thought it was funny.

“Girl, I just wanna say that I think you’re beautiful and yo body looks great, I don’t know who you are but I just thought it was hilarious that someone photoshopped roasted seasoned chicken thighs on someone lmao like that’s so ridiculous.

“All I do is repost funny s***t on my finsta, I accidentally posted it on my main, but it was nothing directed towards you,” she said.

However, despite her body making headlines recently, Walker is set to come to South Africa in October as she is headlining the "Rocking The Daisies" music festival and also performing at the "In The City" concert in Pretoria.
