On Tuesday, an Instagram account called “thacelebriteanews” posted a picture of Blac Chyna in a casual outfit. Though the account didn’t write anything in the caption other than “#BlacChyna,” commenters inferred that the pictures were meant to portray the pregnant celebrity in an unflattering light—and so did Blac Chyna herself.
The model posted a response in the comments, saying that she should be allowed to wear what she wants without criticism. “If I walked out in makeup and heels everyday to be beautiful to your means, I WOULD BE MISERABLE & UNHAPPY.”
Fans showed their support for Blac Chyna by commenting on the post and defending her. “Good for you, people love to criticize but don’t look at themselves,” user @mena0522 wrote. “When people make fun of a woman growing a whole human being it shows how miserable this world is,” another user, @oh_wow_gifts_and_baskets said.
