Watch: Hilaria Baldwin Slams Critics Saying 12-Year-Old Daughter Carmen Dresses "Way Older" for Her AgeHilaria Baldwin is defending her daughter Carmen. The Baldwins star clapped back at online criticism over an outfit her and husband Alec Baldwin's 12-year-old wore in a recent Instagram video. Several users thought the white tank top, short khaki skirt, black tights and pearl body chain Carmen donned in the clip-which showed her lip-syncing to a song alongside her younger sisters María Lucía, 4, and Ilaria, 2-looked too "grown up" for the tween. "Very uncomfortable to see a 12 year old act this way," one commenter wrote, while another said Carmen was "way too young to be making video." A third commenter added, "Looks way older than 12." But Hilaria wasn't having any of the chatter surrounding her daughter. As she put it in a response video Jan. 20, "My kids are so safe wearing a tank top, skirt and tights. She's been wearing that her whole life, so why is it making you uncomfortable?" "Women can do more harm to each other through this kind of comment," the 42-year-old continued, "because it's shaming and it's not inclusive." readWhy Hilaria Baldwin and Alec Baldwin Are Considering a Cross-Country MoveHilaria-who is also mom to sons Rafael, 10, Leonardo, 9, Romeo, 7, and Eduardo, 5-also slammed allegations that she's exposing Carmen to "predators" by allowing this behavior.
Hilaria Baldwin/Instagram"Predators are real," she said, "the way to take care of them is not through Instagram comments or shaming." Accusing critics of having "untrue thoughts" about womanhood, the Dancing With the Stars alum added, "Stop pretending and let's start looking in, seeing what's making us uncomfortable." And Hilaria believes the same school of thought applies to older women as well. In December, she called out a separate Instagram user who told her a cocktail dress she wore to a holiday party was "too short" for her age.
Hilaria Baldwin/Instagram"Are you saying that 41-year-old women can't show off our legs?" Hilaria clapped back in a Dec. 2 Instagram video, which showed her in a floral, corset-style frock. "I don't care if they're 21, 41, 81, 101-our bodies, our legs are not offensive." For more celebs clapping back at body shamers, read on.

"I saw 2 different strangers commenting on my body." She continued, "The first said I should get on Oz*mpic because I'm too fat. The second accused me of starving myself because I'm too thin. My weight did not change in the time period between their comments. (& it wouldn't be any of their business if it did!)" Ava said that "no one deserves to be picked apart for what they look like." She added, "You don't always know what someone's gone through or what they struggle with. But no matter who you are... Your beauty exceeds such superficial measures." Steve Granitz/FilmMagicBebe RexhaAfter receiving body-shaming comments, the "I"m Good" singer clapped back at the critics and explained why she's tired of receiving criticism over her appearance. "I know I got fat," she captioned her June 2023 tweet. "I'm just so sick of people talking about it. NEXT!!!!!!" In a separate post, the 33-year-old added, "Human beings go through weight fluctuations," she continued, "it's life and you don't know what people are going through. Meds, disease, etc..."Instagram / Rumer WillisRumer WillisAfter some critics accused the House Bunny actress of looking too skinny in an Instagram photo, the star fired back, writing, "I know I don't need to do this but in an effort to spread some awareness and shed some light on body shaming tactics i felt the need to share. After the barrage of some really inappropriate comments left on my pic I posted yesterday I was left really bummed cause I was really enjoying the silly pics I took. It was a weird angle that even made me feel life I looked smaller than I do in real life. But regardless even though you may think it's your job or even your right to leave unfiltered thoughts or judgements about my body for me and others to read... it's not." "Coming for me in my comments and telling me how I'm too skinny or I need to eat is absolutely not helpful and extremely body shaming," she continued."Body shaming of any kind is something I will not stand for." More than a week later, she shared a photo of herself sunbathing in a bikini, writing, "For the haters....with love and gratitude kindly [kiss emoji] my [peach emoji], I'll keep smiling regardless [peace sign emoji]."
