Demi Moore has always been known for pushing the boundaries in Hollywood, whether it’s through her daring film roles or her bold magazine covers. However, the actress recently revealed that one of the biggest misconceptions about her is that she has always been comfortable with her figure.
In a recent interview discussing her latest film, “The Substance,” which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May, Moore opened up about her struggles with body image. She confessed that she has faced insecurities about her body and has used certain projects as a way to overcome those insecurities.
Despite receiving criticism for her topless scenes in films like “Striptease,” Moore explained that her decision to take on provocative roles was not about loving her body, but rather about challenging societal norms and stereotypes. She emphasized that she has always been drawn to roles that provoke meaningful thought and challenge traditional gender roles.
In her memoir, “Inside Out,” Moore previously shared the pressure she felt to stay thin in Hollywood. Her new film, “The Substance,” centers around her character, Elisabeth Sparkle, who is offered a substance that temporarily transforms her into a younger, enhanced version of herself. When asked if she was concerned about the body-centric nature of the project, Moore expressed confidence in the relatability of the story and the opportunity for growth that comes from pushing oneself out of their comfort zone.
Despite the challenges she has faced in Hollywood, Moore remains dedicated to portraying complex and powerful female characters on screen. She continues to break barriers and challenge societal expectations, proving that true beauty lies in confidence, vulnerability, and authenticity.
