Pregnancy Rumors Abound At The Grammys Because The Red Carpet Is The Perfect Place For Fat Shaming
Twitter was abuzz with pregnancy rumors during the Grammys last night. Because apparently the internet thinks women have no fat deposits around their midsections at all — ever. If they do, they must be pregnant, right? Katy Perry and Kelly Osbourne both learned last night that if you do not have six pack abs or if your outfit indicates you may actually have some fat in your midsections, you may be accused of being pregnant.
What is that in that second picture? Is that a… tiny belly? What is going on? How did she let that happen? Does she actually eat food? No. Didn’t anyone tell her she’s not supposed to eat food or give any indication that she has a robust female form? Unless of course, the robustness is in her boobs. The internet is totally cool with fat there. Here’s what Twitter had to say about Osbourne after they were subjected to her belly:
Is kelly osbourne pregnant or it that dress just unflattering

@redcarpet Is Kelly Osbourne pregnant?! Looks like it in the dress she’s wearing. ”” Deborah J. McDougald (@djmcd61) February 8, 2015
Osbourne eloquently responded:
NO IM NOT PREGNANT YOU FUCKERS! I have a back brace on AND I REALLY NEED TO TAKE A SHIT! #SuckIt

Good for her.
Now, on to Katy Perry.
Katy committed the double offense of having a tiny belly and also touching it. Women never touch their bellies unless they’re pregnant, right internet?
Katy Perry bloated or pregnant? Cotdamn… #GRAMMYs

Really?
The pressure we put on female celebrities is just ridiculous. Actually, the internet is equal-opportunity awful, the Sam Smith fat shaming tweets were extensive and terrible. I wish every time someone shamed someone else for the way they looked on the internet, their computer to an auto-selfie. I’d like to see what these clearly perfect internet body-shamers look like in real time.
