Jonah Hill Slams Tabloid For Trying To Body Shame Him During Recent Surfing Trip

Jonah Hill’s career in film has included several different looks. It seems the actor’s weight changes with each new part he takes on. He’s all about the artform, but he’s not about to be body shamed because of it.

The actor posted a screenshot from a Daily Mail article about him. The Superbad actor had a scathing response to an article that pointed out his fluctuating weight. He also revealed something very personal about his own life and insecurities in the process.

I don’t think I ever took my shirt off in a pool until I was in my mid 30s even in front of family and friends. Probably would have happened sooner if my childhood insecurities weren’t exacerbated by years of public mockery about my body by press and interviewers. So the idea that the media tries to play me by stalking me while surfing and printing photos like this and it can’t phase me anymore is dope. I’m 37 and finally love and accept myself. This isn’t a “good for me” post . And it’s definitely not a “feel bad for me post”. It’s for the the kids who don’t take their shirt off at the pool. Have fun. You’re wonderful and awesome and perfect. All my love.

Oh and Daily Mail, not even you can take that smile from my face 😉

Jonah Hill is a great example of how to live life at this point. He is also not going to let the paparazzo ruin his good time. Good on Jonah Hill for this one.
