Actors Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philippe's oldest daughter Ava Phillippe responded to toxic body-shaming comments on social media.
The social media influencer took to her TikTok page to address the trolling regarding her body and wrote in the text overlay:
“NBD but I just achieved a major milestone as a woman online."
As the video showed her applying lipstick to the tune of No Doubt's "I'm Just a Girl," the next caption read:
“I saw 2 different strangers commenting on my body."
"The first said I should get on Oz*mpic because I’m too fat…”
The censored word, Ozempic, refers to a weekly diabetes injection drug where weight loss is a side effect and has subsequently become popular for losing weight.
While some physicians prescribe Ozempic for weight loss, it is not approved for losing weight and experts advise against using it unless they have type 2 diabetes
She continued:
"The second accused me of starving myself because I'm too thin."
The 24-year-old continued smearing lipstick across her cheek as she rolled her eyes and commented, "It's such bullsh*t" before turning away from the camera.

"No one deserves to be picked apart for what they look like," she wrote, adding, "You don't always know what someone's gone through or what they struggle with."
She ended with:
"But no matter who you are...Your beauty exceeds such superficial measures."
The viral clip was captioned with:
"Pretty is as pretty does, babes … & bodyshaming is simply toxic behavior. 💋.”
Witherspoon expressed approval for her daughter's epic clapback.

Ava also explained that body-shaming doesn't necessarily target just one gender.
“P.S. I put ‘woman’ because I see this type of thing happening disproportionately to young girls & women, but let me be clear; body shaming is toxic no matter who the subject is,” she said.
“We all deserve to feel safe & at peace in the vessel we live in.
