Demi Moore: Beauty standards have become an occasion for masochism

In an interview with the Guardian, Hollywood star Demi Moore shared that the desire for an ideal appearance and conforming to stereotypes led to self-abuse.

The 61-year-old actress talked about working on a new film - the body horror "Substance". In it, she played a star who was kicked out of her own project on the grounds that "a woman has value until she's past childbearing age." After that, the heroine tests on herself a serum that is supposed to restore her youth.

“I took to heart this situation of a woman in the entertainment industry who is facing rejection and is deeply desperate. 

Everything in her life that seems meaningful to her disappears. What really struck me was the brutal violence against herself. The important thing is not what others do to you, but what we do to ourselves," Demi Moore was angry.

According to her, now all people who are in the public eye face his condemnation. "We live in a time of the Great Judgment. People can anonymously judge each other and they do so viciously. I think the urge to judge others is a reflection of one's own problems and a way to boost one's self-esteem. I've learned to just ignore it when things like that happen."

Demi Moore is known for her meticulous attitude to appearance. The actress was repeatedly suspected of undergoing plastic surgery, some of which, as fans of the actress suggest, were unsuccessful. She herself prefers not to comment on this issue.
Recently, issues such as maintaining youth and a slim figure have been actively discussed in the information space. Celebrities are criticized for the risky manipulations they do with their bodies. They are said to sacrifice their health to meet beauty standards. | BGNES
