The Good Place star’s post caught the attention of Victoria’s Secret model Sara Sampaio, who accused the activist of “bringing other people down” with her campaign for body positivity. “Calling runway models ‘long-starved terrified teenager’ is extremely offensive,” Sampaio wrote on Twitter. I look up to you so much.” However, not everyone agreed with Jamil’s comments, with several Twitter users calling her a “hypocrite”. If someone had liked slender models and said ‘not a fatty in sight’ – you'd go mad!” This isn’t the first time Jamil has spoken publicly about her attitude towards body positivity.
