Gymnast Nastia Liukin has finally released her debut fall fashion collection that she’s been promoting for weeks, but that’s not what fans are paying attention to.
Some of her followers worry that the 34-year-old former gymnast, who has been retired since 2012, is getting too thin for her own good. Alongside comments telling her to “eat a cheeseburger”, other users have told her she looks like a “malnourished child”.
Gymnast Nastia Liukin Was Told ‘Eat a Cheeseburger, You Look Thin’
Just a day ago, the five-time Olympic medalist took to Instagram to show off some photos of one of the dresses from her collection that she named “The Harley.” The pink long-sleeved dress fell to her thighs and covered most of her slim figure. Her long legs were still on display as she showed off her pedicure with strappy pink heels.
She is standing in front of a wall advertising her new fall collection. The walls are covered in pink cowboy hats, prompting Nastia to joke that “me and a 13-foot ladder have become bffs” in the caption. Although she announced that the launch of her new clothing line is happening on Monday, November 6, in the caption, other followers did not stop talking about her weight.
Some Users Raise Concerns About Nastia’s Weight
While some fans said they “can’t wait” to see Nastia’s clothing line, other comments were about her size. “This is very unattractive. He looks like a malnourished child,” wrote one netizen.
“Please eat a cheeseburger. You look thin. I’m a big fan. Please don’t look like wood,” wrote another user.
Another follower submitted a GIF showing a man saying, “Just eat that food.”
“He needs a nutritionist and a therapist before collapsing from a heart attack,” another netizen speculated.
One user seemed to imply that he had ED, writing, “As an athlete who has been fighting for a decade +, (you know what I mean), I say sincerely, that I hope you are able to be stronger than me and overcome. I see you. And send a prayer.”
When one fan wrote “Legs” along with three fire emojis, another user said, “Yes! You’re absolutely right. It looks like a match stick!”
‘Nobody Cares?’ Caused a LOT of debate on his posts
One user asked, “Nobody cares?” which sparked a lot of debate in the comments. “I said out loud ‘Oh no’,” said one fan. “I was thinking the same thing,” another follower agreed.
“Of course they are but they are too afraid to say anything for fear of being called ridiculous names. But when this person falls from heart disease, the same coward will cry ‘Why didn’t anyone call him!?’ ‘Did anyone see the signs??’” another user commented. “I have no problem saying it: he NEEDS to eat! Too young and beautiful and talented to waste. He needs to read Karen Carpenter’s story.”
“I’ve never heard of this person, but [Nastia] nothing but skin and bones. Definitely need to see a doctor,” commented another user. “His team should be very concerned about the message he is sending to the thousands of young gymnasts who follow him. He doesn’t look good and it’s very worrying. I pray he gets help,” shared another follower.
Nastia Liukin Doesn’t Respond To Comments About Her Weight… But Her Fans Do!
However, some fans feel that her weight is not something she should talk about on Instagram. “Oh, you know him personally? Do you have her full story? No? …Then keep your back comments to yourself,” one fan clapped. “You never know what someone is going through and SHOCK it’s none of your business. If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything.” They closed their comments with the hashtag “manners”.
This prompted another user to respond: “He didn’t scold her in any way! Take care, Poptart. People are really concerned and wish him well. Learn how to understand what you read before spouting nonsense.”
