KC Concepcion embraces curves despite receiving body-shaming comments

KC Concepcion has taken to Instagram to express how she learned to love her curves even after receiving negative comments for not having an “Asian stick thin body.”

“Making my Portuguese curves shine everyday ... in case someone’s been living under a rock, curves are in, curves are NOW, curves are TIMELESS and having this ultra feminine shape?? I wouldn’t have it any other way!” she wrote on the caption of her post, sharing a photo of herself flaunting her curves in her OOTD.

The actress said she used to get body-shamed for being an Asian and not having a “stick thin body.”

KC noted that many women like her “get affected by this mentally, emotionally and physically.”

She said after “going through a pandemic and realizing the big picture issues of the world, I realized life is to be celebrated, and enjoyed.”

KC said she asked herself, “why would I choose to develop an eating disorder over losing all the extra weight healthily?”

“Why choose to lock myself up comparing myself to everyone else, when I could be dressing up for these fire feminine hips and that booty (that some girls even pay to have by the way)? Celebrate LIFE. Tomorrow is not promised.”

KC said she is proudly celebrating women and Filipinas who have a body like hers.

“Serving you... a FILIPINA with LATINA CURVES. I’m here to celebrate all Filipinas who are like me.” – Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/RC, GMA News
