United States model and actress, Emily Ratajkowski, has called out a French magazine for reducing her lips and breasts in a photograph for an interview which deals with the discrimination she says she has faced for “being too sexy”.

In an Instagram post, Ratajkowski expressed her disgust at Madame Figaro magazine for altering her lips and breasts.

She wrote, “I was extremely disappointed to see my lips and breasts altered in Photoshop on this cover.

“Everyone is uniquely beautiful in their own ways. We all have insecurities about the things that make us different from a typical ideal of beauty,” she added.

“I hope the fashion industry will finally learn to stop trying to stifle the things that make us unique and instead begin to celebrate individuality.”

Ratajkowski’s post has received a lot of applauds from her 14.9m followers and 443,382 likes on Instagram, with many praising her for speaking out.

Madame Figaro’s cover image of Ratajkowski wearing a black leather beret and an open coat appeared to have been altered to thin her lips and lift and reduce the size of her breasts.
