Tia Mowry

When the actress put on a few pounds around the time that she started her cooking show in 2015, Mowry hit back at her haters.

“I’ve gained these extra 10 [or] 15 pounds because of my cooking show,” she said at the time. “I’m just enjoying life and, when I want to drop the pounds, I will, but right now I’m happy with who I am.”

“We need to be more supportive with body images, especially with women, showing that all sizes are beautiful,” she added. “And I’m talking about in magazines, advertisement[s] in regard to what’s sexy and what’s not sexy. We all need to be a little more supportive of each other. I think if we start there, we’ll see a difference.”
