The Irish actress Nicola Coughlan took to her Twitter account to politely ask people to stop posting about her figure online. She asked people to keep their opinions to themselves about her body along with a mirror selfie.
She wrote,
"Hello! So just a thing - if you have an opinion about my body please, please don't share it with me. Most people are being nice and not trying to be offensive, but I am just one real-life human being and it's really hard to take the weight of thousands of opinions on how you look - being sent directly to you every day."
Nicola then posted another tweet explaining that she was not against people voicing their opinions since her profession entangles with the public, but she clearly voiced how unpleasant she felt when people commented about her body directly on social media. She wrote, "If you have an opinion about me, that's OK, I understand I'm on TV and that people will have things to think and say but I beg you not to send it to me directly."
