Jameela Jamil and Model Sara Sampaio are in a Twitter fight


Aside from being literally the best part of The Good Place, Jameela Jamil is an activist and outspoken critic of the more problematic parts of celebrity/influencer culture – especially when it comes to unrealistic beauty standards! Which brings us to Jameela’s recent tweet celebrating this amazing-looking runway – and apparently model Sara Sampaio took issue with due to the actress’s comment about “long-starved terrified teenagers.” Sara hit back at Jameela on Twitter, writing, “How about celebrating someone without bringing other people down? Calling runway models ‘long-starved terrified teenager’ is extremely offensive. From someone that is always preaching for body positivity this just screams hypocrisy.” The exchange went on for a while and there are way too many tweets to include here, but at the end of the day Jameela told Sara (who accused Jameela of using “derogatory words”) to “Find a better cause to fight for, because this ain’t it. You can do more than this, you’re smart. Help girls, don’t normalise this.”
