Olivia Wilde’s fans have rushed to her defence after the A-lister was savagely trolled. The Don’t Worry Darling <\/a>director, 42, who used to date One Direction<\/a> star, Harry Styles<\/a>, 32, sent folk into a frenzy this week when she rocked up on the red carpet to promote her latest film, The Invite.<\/p>\n

In a video, which has now gone viral, Olivia<\/a>, sporting a white t-shirt and black ruffled skirt, speaks about the film, which the actress directed ahead of the San Francisco International Film Festival. However, it was the mum-of-two’s appearance that fans were most interested in, with several accusing Olivia of ‘looking too thin’ while some baselessly speculated that she was ‘using Ozempic’.<\/p>\n

Hitting back at the cruel comments, the actress’ fans defended her, with some blaming the lighting on the red carpet for her ‘changed appearance’. Meanwhile, others suggested the trolls leave Olivia alone and \u201clook at people on the inside, not the outside.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s unflattering lighting and a bad camera lens. She otherwise looks beautiful and is aging gracefully,\u201d one wrote on X. \u201cI think it may have been the camera settings, or a filter of whoever took that video. I saw a news clip where she didn\u2019t look as bad,\u201d agreed another.<\/p>\n

A third said: \u201cPeople need to toss off sometimes and leave people be” while a fourth commented: \u201cWhy is this even a post? She\u2019s beautiful. We\u2019re living in such a world<\/a> where everyone has to be perfect. You can\u2019t be too fat; you can\u2019t be too thin\u2026Like, who cares?\u201d<\/p>\n

Olivia, who is one of the world’s most photographed women, has spoken out about the scrutiny of living life in the spotlight before.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Elle magazine<\/a> in 2022 when she was dating Harry – who she was directing in Don’t Worry Darling and who is now engaged to Zoe Kravitz – Olivia, who is 10 years younger than the singer, didn’t hold back.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s as though the general public feels that if you are making something that you\u2019re selling to the public, you somehow have accepted that your life will be torn to shreds by a pack of wolves,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, that\u2019s actually not part of the job description,\u201d she added. \u201cNever was.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prior to that, the Wake Up star advocated the importance of body positivity while speaking to Vogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Stressing the importance of feeling confident, she said: \u201cWe want to celebrate the idea of loving one\u2019s own body and feeling confident because you feel beautiful, and the idea that the rituals we practice for ourselves are opportunities to celebrate ourselves.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeauty isn\u2019t an obligation in order to interact with the rest of the world,\u201d Wilde added at the time. \u201cThis is about interacting with ourselves and celebrating ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n
