1. Abbie Chatfield says “I have been body shamed at every size”, nailing in one sentence how cooked societal expectations are.
FromerBachiecontestant Abbie Chatfield has once again shone a light on body shamming. And we are so here for it.
Speaking to Who magazine on Thursday, Abbie explained that being body shamed has sadly become her "normal" but she's more concerned about how it will affect other women.
Showing just how messed up social expectations are, Abbie said "I'm body shamed at every size, and unfortunately it's become my normal".
"The main issue I have with these comments is not how they may impact my self-esteem, but how they appear to other women."
"If there is a comment on my cellulite, or the size of my thighs, any person who sees themselves reflected in that image will in turn be hurt and shamed."
It's not the first time Abbie has spoken out about body shaming.
In September, she shared an Instagram post calling out the comments she gets about her appearance.
"It’s been over a year of being in the media to a certain degree and comments like these only get a tiiiiny bit easier. Yes, they’re laughable," she wrote.
"Yes, our value doesn’t come from our weight and yes, being 'fat' shouldn’t even be a bad word BUT it still sucks. It gets exhausting and I just want it to stop. I want it to stop for me, but also for people who read these comments and think it’s the norm."

2. Miley Cyrus says she’s having a lot of ‘FaceTime sex’ these days.
Four months after splitting with Cody Simpson, Miley Cyrus has opened up about her dating life during the pandemic.
Speaking on theHoward Stern Show, Miley explained that dating has been "really interesting and challenging".
"I do a lot of FaceTime sex," she said.
The 28-year-old also spoke about her past relationship with Liam Hemsworth and how she 'clung' to him after the California bushfires in 2018 burnt down her house.
"Our house burned down. We had been like, engaged – I don’t know if we really ever thought we were actually going to get married.
“I had so much and it was all gone, every song I had ever written was in that house. Every photograph of me that my parents had given to me, all my scripts, I lost everything. And so in trying to put that back together, instead of going, 'Oh, nature kind of did something I couldn’t do for myself; it forced me to let go', I ran toward the fire.
"You’re attracted to that heat and me being an intense person and not wanting to sit with it, and not wanting to go, you know, 'What could be purposeful about this?' I just clung to what I had left of that house, which was me and him."
Miley went on to say that while she "did love him very, very, very much and still do" there were struggles in their relationship.
"There was too much conflict," she said. "When I come home, I want to be anchored by someone. I don’t get off on drama or fighting."

Can you believe it's been nearly an entire year since the last round of mayhem onMarried At First Sight? (Usually we say that when something feels like it's come around at record speed, but this time it's simply because this has been the longest. year. ever.)
But anyway, back toMAFS. She's coming back!
The first trailer has already been dropped, but now (thanks to some super-sleuthing from classic Instagram page @mafsfunny) we have actual human names, faces and job titles to tie to this year's brides and grooms.
