4 Times Instagram Stars Proved Cellulite Is Totally Normal

It can sometimes be challenging not to compare yourself to picture-perfect models you see on social media. But more and more of those models are using their platforms to proudly show off stretch marks and cellulite, empowering their followers and proving that so-called "imperfections" are completely normal.

Sophie Turner, a model from the United Kingdom, recently shared a behind-the-scenes snapshot from a photo shoot she participated in. In the image, Turner's thigh is center stage, and (gasp!) she has cellulite. "I was angry when I seen [sic] this pic because Of [sic] my cellulite - It was on my mind but why should it?" she wrote. "I am more than #cellulite I am more than the #bellyrolls and the #backfat and #celluliteisnormal."

The model went on to explain that cellulite is natural part of a woman's body, and she's had it since she was 12 years old.

Turner isn't the first influencer to post unretouched photos on social media. Supermodel Ashley Graham is notorious for celebrating her curves, and she's not afraid to draw attention to cellulite. Case in point: an Instagram post she shared in September that shows off her rockin' bod, cellulite and all, while wearing just a bra, undies, and sneakers. "Me #sorrynotsorry," she wrote.
