Victoria’s Secret Angel Sara Sampaio stuns in a black bikini as she shares a body positive message: ‘Please stop commenting on people’s changing bodies’

Sara Sampaio promoted body confidence with a powerful video of herself posing in a black bikini from a number of different angles on Friday.

In an attempt to encourage her 7.5 million Instagram followers to practice self-love, the 29-year-old Victoria’s Secret model normalized her own body’s ‘rolls’ by putting them on full display.

‘A little Friday PSA for all of you,’ she captioned the footage. ‘Be kind to people and yourself and please stop commenting on people’s changing bodies.’

Good role model: Sara Sampaio promoted body confidence with a powerful video of herself posing in a black bikini from a number of different angles on Friday

In the clip, she appears in front of the camera while the popular TikTok audio states, ‘Bodies that look like this, also look like this. Backs that look like this, also look like this.’  

‘It is normal, safe and preferable that your body makes bulges and rolls as it moves around to allow you the best range of motion that you can have,’ the recording went on. 

At the start of the video, she gave fans a look at just how models angle themselves in certain positions and stances to appear even thinner.

Just a different angle: In an attempt to encourage her 7.5 million Instagram followers to practice self-love, the 29-year-old Victoria’s Secret model normalized her own back fat and rolls by putting them on full display

As she stood in her living room she stopped flexing and dropped her posture to empower others to not worry about society’s beauty standards.  

The trend was kicked off to showcase that all people deserve to have a positive body image regardless of their shape, size and appearance. 

In October, Sampaio got in a heated debate with Jameela Jamil over the pitfalls of the modeling industry.

Their feud sparked after Jamil, 34, retweeted a clip from Vienna Fashion Week 2018 showing the Gold Caviar Crew dancing on the runway, with a snarky caption that there wasn’t a ‘long-starved terrified teenager’ in sight. 

Sampaio, who became the first Portuguese model to be featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, clapped back at Jamil. 

Accusing Jameela, 33, of ‘hypocrisy’, she called out the self-confessed activist for ‘bringing other people down’ in her crusade to promote body positivity.

Speaking up: In October, Sampaio got in a heated debate with Jameela Jamil over the pitfalls of the modeling industry and diet culture

Not okay: Sampaio, who became the first Portuguese model to be featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, previously clapped back at Jamil for saying most runway models look like ‘long-starved terrified teenager’

‘How about celebrating someone without bringing other people down?’ Sampaio replied.

‘Calling runway models ‘long-starved terrified teenager’ is extremely offensive. From someone that is always preaching for body positivity this just screams hypocrisy.’

Jameela responded minutes later, clarifying she wasn’t referring to every model in her original tweet. 

‘I didn’t say all models in my tweet so try to calm down. But I will say there is a *vast* majority issue with young girls starving themselves, and using drugs and cocaine to control their weight, to meet the very small sample sizes. If you don’t see that, then you are in a bubble,’ Jamil said.  

Jameela’s tweet: In October, Jamil, a former model agent, tweeted: ‘Oh my god This looks like the most fun, and not a long-starved terrified teenager in sight. Beautiful’

She added in another tweet, ‘I also don’t preach ‘body positivity.’ I talk about moving away from all talk of body, in order to combat our current pervasive issue of eating disorder culture, which is in NO small way perpetuated by the extreme thinness demanded of girls by the high fashion powers that be.’ 

Sara responded by stating that Jameela still shouldn’t have felt the need to, ‘attack girls just so you can celebrate others.’  

‘Eating disorders, drugs and cocaine use aren’t a exclusive problem of models, it’s a huge problem is society as a whole,’ Sampaio added.
