Jana Kramer addressed some of the hateful comments directed towards her after she posted a photo in which she wore form-fitting clothing.
“A few things because honestly I’m so frustrated and I need to vent this,” Kramer, 35, wrote on Instagram alongside a cropped image of the star lifting her shirt to reveal her stomach.
“I wanted to post this photo (showing my stomach) because I wanted to show my journey back to healthy and my goodness I’m so glad I didn’t which is why this photo is now cropped,” she added. “It’s amazing the comments and how rude some people be.”
“No I didn’t get a tummy tuck, no I don’t have a personal chef, no I don’t have fortunes so I didn’t train everyday,” she wrote. “Yes I had a c section, yes I am still in pain and on meds but I do have a high pain tolerance. I have had 3 stomach surgeries before this (appendix, gallbladder, and c section)..In that photo I had on a belly bandit wrapped tightly, and high waisted pants and wow here I am defending myself. Why?!!”
Jana shared that had she “posted the photo of my actual stomach in this photo I would have probably been shamed too.”
“Why do we women have to compare ourselves to each other and then shame?” she asked. “Our bodies are all beautiful and created differently, they heal different, they react different, they simply look different. Why do we need to shame someone for not looking a certain way? Or feel bad about ourselves for looking a certain way?”
Jana did reveal her stomach and opened up more in her Instagram story. See the pics here
Comments by celebs also spotted where she fired back at a fan in the comments of Us Weekly’s post accusing her using the pic as a way to get publicity. Scroll through to see her response
