Emily Ratajkowski has branded a body shamer who caught her on camera as “not mindful.”
The 33-year-old model, actress and author known for her raunchy Instagram posts was faced with a sexist remark while filming content for TikTik in New York City.
Her video showed an off-camera man interrupting her walk and telling her, “Girl, put on a shirt.”
Emily – who was walking around at the time in a low-cut grey tank top, gold necklace and black leggings – said in a caption above the footage: “Wait for it: a man tells me to put a shirt on. Notoriously not modest, notoriously not mindful.”
Emily’s last line was a reference to the new “low-key” TikTok trend started by Jools Lebron, with the catchphrase meant to sum up an attitude of cuteness, cleanliness and mindfulness, from language to fashion choices.
The post by Emily, a single mother who has three-year-old son Sylvester Apollo with her ex-husband Sebastian Bear-McClard (37) and is rumored to be dating 29-year-old singer Shaboozey, quickly garnered nearly two million views.
She shot the video for Charli XCX’s hit “365” from her latest album “Brat.”
Emily’s fans filled the comments section of her post with outrage, with one saying it was “crazy” to ask her to put on a shirt because she was so beautiful.
The model admitted to “exploiting” herself and “using her body” to achieve “fame and success.” Emily is now said to be worth $8 million.
She told CBS Mornings that she was aware that she had “exploited her sexuality” in her younger years to gain control over her life.
Emily added: “In my early 20s, I really thought I was going to fight my way through and play the system and say, ‘Okay, I know what I’m getting out of being a model and using my body to become famous and successful.'”
“And I even called it empowerment.”
