ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - Academy Award-winning actress Kate Winslet has revealed she worries about social media’s impact on young girls.
The 42-year-old actress believes society increasingly embraces curvier women, but she’s still concerned about how social media encourages young women to strive for physical perfection.
Asked whether she feels under pressure about her appearance, the Oscar-winning star explained: “Not so much. We have celebrated curves more in the last five years.
“But I do worry about the extra pressure to be ‘perfect’ on girls growing up now. I’m obsessed about the misuse and potential perils of social media for our younger generation.”
Winslet warned that sharing images of so-called perfect-looking women on social media can lead to other young women feeling self-conscious about their own appearance.
