Jonah Hill’s Response To Fans Who Comment On His Body Is Priceless

Jonah Hill isn’t here for people’s comments about his body – good or bad! The 37-year-old Superbad actor took to social media to tell his fans that he isn’t interested in hearing their opinions about his body, even if they think they are paying him a compliment!

Hill took to Instagram to politely (no really – he used the word “kindly” and everything, which we think is very sweet given how strongly he feels about the issue) make his request. “I know you mean well but I kindly ask that you not comment on my body,” the War Dogs actor wrote, followed by a heart emoji. “Good or bad I want to politely let you know it’s not helpful and doesn’t feel good. Much respect,” he ended his note.

This isn’t the first time Hill has shared his thoughts about the public’s perception of his body to social media. Back in February, in response to an article by The Daily Mail which essentially tried to body shame him, he wrote: “I don’t think I ever took my shirt off in a pool until I was in my mid-thirties even in front of family and friends.”

He continued: “Probably would have happened sooner if my childhood insecurities weren’t exacerbated by years of public mockery about my body by press and interviewers. So the idea that the media tries to play me by stalking me while surfing and printing photos like this and it can’t phase me anymore is dope. I’m 37 and finally love and accept myself. This isn’t a ‘good for me’ post. And it’s definitely not a ‘feel bad for me post’. It’s for the kids who don’t take their shirt off at the pool. Have fun. You’re wonderful and awesome and perfect. All my love.” He concluded his message by writing: “Oh and Daily Mail, not even you can take that smile from my face.”

We can definitely see how commenting on someone's body, regardless of intention, can have a negative effect. We think that's exactly why Adele didn’t want to document her weight loss journey, and why she still doesn’t feel comfortable with people focusing on it! The 21 Jump Street actor has been quite open with his body image struggles over the years, so we assumed that his fans wouldn’t have any problems with his request. However, that wasn’t necessarily the case, as one famous fan felt the need to make a comment, and has since been dragged for it. Yes, we're talking about Sharon Stone, who seemingly ignored Hill's request and made a comment about his appearance on the very same post he shared asking his fans not to.

"Can I say you look good cuz u do," the 63-year-old actress wrote as a comment to his post, alongside a fire emoji. The comments section of Hill's post has since been disabled, so Stone's comment is according to a screenshot which was shared to Twitter. Prior to the comments section being disabled, many of the actor's fans came to his defense and criticized the Basic Instinct actress for commenting on something he quite "literally" asked her not to.

"He literally just said don’t do it… and you are doing it," one angry fan wrote underneath her comment. "Can you read?" another IG user asked Stone, while someone else added: "No bc he said don’t comment on his appearance, good or bad. TY." We're glad the Wolf of Wall Street actor has so many fans in his corner!
