“I call bullsh*t to rich, famous, privileged people portraying their life as accessible to everyone,” she said in an interview with Runway Riot. “I get messages from teenage girls and mothers of young girls saying I’ve made them feel better about themselves. It’s super nice.”
You do you, Celeste. You do you.
