Jameela Jamil is tackling fashion and size issues in Hollywood.
Over the past few days, the actress has taken her vocal stance on issues related to celebrity size and extra weight. From waging war against quick weight loss solutions to actress and singer Selena Gomez after internet trolls dragged the latter for gaining weight, body positivity advocates have been busy. Now, she laments how getting clothes in certain sizes has become more of a hassle than usual.
Jameela Jamil Expresses Concern Over Increasing Exclusion Of Women Wearing Sizes Bigger Than 4

Fans who follow Jamil on social media know that he’s not a fan of society telling women what their size can or can’t be. The former BBC Radio 1 presenter reiterated his views in a series of explosive remarks which he began by stating that he had something to talk about.
That “something” turns out to be the “privilege” star needed to “be allowed to exist in the mainstream beyond a size 4 in my industry.” Sharing that she is a 5’10” woman whose size fluctuates between “a size 8, sometimes a 10 in my hips during the winter,” she stated:
“I CONTRACTUALLY have to go to events and be in magazines to promote my work, and to maintain the relevance that keeps me working, I have to wear nice, up-to-date clothes. BUT the sample for this dress is F**king TINY.”
Somehow, things got worse because of the weight loss injections that most of his colleagues were taking. Jamil refers to his good fortune that he can “finance great stylists and talented tailors to alter clothes to make them bigger: but what about people who don’t have access to this? You see it FORCES everyone to conform to a small sample size.”

After highlighting that this development makes women feel like there is something wrong with them, she explains in another Story:
“If the designers had made the sample larger, this would not have happened: they are directly responsible for the fallout on our society. I myself refuse to trade my body for clothes. I’ve been doing that for 30 years and I’m LITTLE. I’m very lucky that I have the power and the choice to do that.”
Jamil wonders how other women – more curvy – deal with the problem if she “faces this problem as a relatively thin person in Hollywood.” “In short. In 2023 Can we please…Finally…Let women eat?,” she asked in the last update.
“The Good Place” star previously declared that women don’t have to “justify their size” while showing her support for Gomez. Expressing her disappointment, she said that the fact that the cast of “Only Murders in the Building” felt the need to “explain or defend her size” is “a sign that we have failed miserably as a society.”
Jamil explained that with the “return of size zero” — thanks to “all these damn celebrities taking diabetes drugs to be thin,” the tradition of “women apologizing for their bodies” has to remain a thing of the past.

The former “The Official Chart” radio host ended his remarks by praising Gomez as a “beautiful” woman who “deserves better than this.” In fact, for the on-screen star, “We all deserve better than this.” The Instagram story was posted days after the “Calm Down” singer herself discussed her weight gain on Instagram Live with her younger sister, Gracie Elliot Teefey.
MCU Stars Tired Of Celebrities Using Ozempic To Lose Weight
In one of his other words, Jamil focused on the specific use of Ozempic – an injectable drug for type II diabetes – for rapid weight loss. According to The Blast, he took to Instagram to scold rich people who “buy this stuff without a prescription for more than 1000 dollars.”
The move caused “real diabetics” to suffer “shortages” as it became a “mainstream craze in Hollywood.” Despite the incident, the “League of Super-Pets” voice artists hope it will end in a different way than it did during the opioid craze.
“I’m very concerned but I can’t change any of your minds because fat phobia is choking our generation,” wrote Jamil conclusively. Jamil prevents his followers from releasing their views below by locking the comments section, proving there is no point in “this conversation anymore”.
