Amanda Seyfried is feuding with influencer Arielle Charnas on Instagram after the blogger's bikini picture was deemed "tone-deaf" by commenters, including the actress and one of her friends.
The Mean Girls star, who’s rarely involved in drama like some former queen bees (hint: Lindsay Lohan) called out the influencer on Instagram after she posted a bikini picture captioned, “Proud of my body after two kids.”
Fans wrote "You look so amazing!" and "Mommy body goals," complete with the praise hands emoji.
But some of the comments weren’t exactly supportive, with Instagram users accusing the post of being “tone-deaf." One commenter wrote, “This is just terribly tone deaf and I thought you were better than this nonsense. I’m also a size zero after two kids, but come on babe, this is genetics. Pls be proud but own your privilege.” Another said, “99.9% of women could not have this body unless they starved themselves for a very long time, and probably not even then.”
The Mamma Mia actress then got in on the action, posting a screenshot of a comment her friend left on the Something Navy blogger’s Instagram, asking the influencer with 1.2 million followers and a Nordstrom clothing line to acknowledge how her wealth and privilege enable her.
Seyfried wrote, “My very smart friend (again—not tagging) wrote this on a semi-influencer’s feed and she blocked both of us (even though I didn’t tag her—at least she’s getting the message). If we’re ready to get paid for flaunting our lifestyle (and inspiring some in the meantime), we have to be open to the discussions surrounding what we’re promoting. We have to back ourselves up—not run away from the issues it presents. There are gray areas everywhere. Each of us has a chance to back ourselves—especially on this platform. If you know who you are—take a second to decide if what you’re throwing out there is worth it—in the big picture.”
But that’s not where it ended. Charnas went on to post a now-expired Instagram story, reportedly writing "Why am I being bullied for posting myself in a bathing suit? I should be punished because I'm thin and worked hard to be fit after giving birth to two kids? I'm not responsible for making people feel good about themselves."
Her husband, Brandon Charnos, also weighed in on Instagram in a tongue-in-cheek post.
And she followed it up with a picture captioned, "Thank you guys for your constant support always - your feedback is everything to me."
It's unclear what will happen next - but it does look like Seyfried is more than ready to spark a discussion about influencers and exactly what they represent.
