Ex-Miss Russia contestant body-shamed on Instagram

Even beauty queens aren’t safe from Instagram body-shaming

A former Miss Russia contestant and model has become the constant target of mean Instagram comments mocking the size of her feet, ever since she posted a photo of herself in a bikini back in August. ​

Interspersed throughout the mostly admirable comments praising 21-year-old Anastasia Reshetova’s sculpted body and beauty-queen looks are repeated mean-spirited comments that mock the size of her feet.

Referring to her feet as “flippers,” commenters repeatedly body-shame the beauty-queen, with some even deeply debating the size of her feet, and asking whether she has trouble finding shoes that fit.

Since the initial public response to her over-sized feet, Reshetova has been subjected to trolling every time she posts a picture that shows them off.

But despite the criticism, Reshetova has continued to proudly show off her long limbs - and feet. She even proved she has a sense of humour about the entire thing by posting a photo of herself wearing actual flippers.

From her most recent full-body post, it is clear the former Miss Russia contestant has not let the negativity get her down - on a photo of herself stretched out in the sand, she included the caption, “180 cm (5 feet 9 inches) of pleasure” along with a bunch of smiley faces.
