Sam Smith opens up about body-image issues and their journey to body positivity

In a recent interview with Sunday Times, Sam Smith opened up about their journey to acceptance and body positivity. They said that the progression has happened with age, and that they have finally found peace with their looks. “Within my industry there is definitely that question of, ‘What should a pop star look like?’ When I was 25 I came off tour exhausted. I looked to role models in the body world. Every time I went to the pool I felt self-conscious, but I forced myself to take my top off,” shared the 30-year-old singer. “It paid off because I now have the opposite of body dysmorphia. I look fabulous. I’m finally getting a tan. I’m burnt in places I’ve never been burnt.”

Smith further noted that they are now happier in their skin, and that they are now liberated from the pressures they once felt when they were younger. When asked what brought along these shifts, the Unholy singer credited their age.
