Rumer Willis is getting real about body positivity.
On Monday, the 31-year-old actress shared an âappreciation postâ for her body and opened up about her insecurities. Rumer â who is isolating in Idaho with her siblings, mom Demi Moore and dad Bruce Willis â got candid about the pressures to âfind a new routineâ and stay healthy while quarantining amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The âOnce Upon a Time in Hollywoodâ actress posted a photo and video that featured her rocking a plunging bralette and matching boxers from Kim Kardashianâs SKIMS shapewear and loungewear line.
âThis is just an appreciation post for my body đȘđŒbecause I think itâs important to celebrate ourselves,â she began in the caption of the photo (above). âNot because we lost weight or we are a certain size or because we have a rare moment when a photo looks âhow we think it should to be accepted by mainstream.'â
âMy body does so much for me and works so hard for me,â she continued. âBut more often than not the only thing it hears it what is wrong with it. What is lacking or what there is too much of. I am a fault of this all too often.â
Rumer went on to explain how âbeing in quarantine and struggling to find a new routine and not using food to find comfort when you are stuck at home all day is hard. Finding discipline to workout from home and eat healthy is hard and itâs ok not to be perfect, Iâm certainly not.â

âThe House Bunnyâ star stressed to her followers that itâs more important to âfind ways to be happy where you are atâ rather than making âbeing a perfect size or weight or hair color or body shape some goal that you can only find happiness and acceptance of you reach it.â
âYou will never be happy if that is the case because there will always be something wrong,â Rumer added. âWhen we look in the mirror or at a photo we usually just go to all the things âwrongâ not the unique beauty.â
âI had a moment today after I worked out and I took this picture and I tried just for a moment to just see all the amazing things and not my âperceived flaws,'â she continued. âI took a moment to acknowledge myself and my body and how much it does and I said thank you for being just as you are and even just for today I release the idea that to be beautiful or desirable you have to be anything other that what you are right now.â
Rumer concluded with a message for her fans, writing, âI wanted to share this in hopes that maybe it may inspire you to do the same.â
A few hours later, Rumer shared a raw video in the same outfit and became âreally vulnerableâ with her fans by pointing out her flaws and insecurities.
âBody Talk,â she captioned the clip. âI wanted to be really vulnerable and transparent and talk to you guys about body confidence and share what I look like with no filters no editingâŠjust me.â

The âEmpireâ actress said she decided to set the record straight after she shared her flawless photo earlier in the day and pointed out that âjust because I can take a great photo, that doesnât mean I still donât have problems.â
âI think that I realized even in me posting a photo and saying all of those things about loving myself, itâs really hard to look at someone because I even do it,â Rumer said. âWhen I look at someone whoâs taken a great photo and itâs talking about body image and loving themselves that when I see a good photo, part of me wants to be like, well fâk you, youâre perfect. So you know, why are you even complaining? Or how could you even begin to have issues?â
âI was thinking about it a lot,â she continued. âI just was trying to find a very clear and completely unedited, unfiltered way for you guys to see what I look like and to share that just because I can take a great photo that doesnât mean that I still donât have problems.â
Rumer then stepped back from the camera to show off her full body in the frame.
âI wanted to just kind of show you guys what I look like and yeah, thatâs not a posed photo, thatâs not a perfect angle,â she said. âYou know, like sometimes my stomach isnât as flat as I want it to be. And you know, sometimes I feel like my arms look huge and photos and sometimes I feel like my thighs are massive and I donât like my gray hair or whatever it is. I hate the little flab sometimes that I see when I try and wear a bra, but theyâre all things that Iâm sure that I notice much more than anybody else does.â
âSo my goal was just to be, like I said, extremely transparent,â she explained. âI guess in my mind everyone would say that, like thereâs some perfect standard of a body. This is just what my body looks like, you know? And Iâm working really hard to try and eat healthy and work out and motivate myself to be strong.â

Rumer added that sheâs trying to motivate herself to accept that her arms âdonât look like Jennifer Garnerâsâ and her waist isnât âas tiny as I wanted.â
âI compare myself to others and itâs really difficult,â she explained. âI think itâs really important to be present and I donât know, just be vulnerable.â
Her dad Bruceâs voice was then heard in the background as he popped into her room. After telling the actor, âone second, Papa. Iâll be right there!â Rumer concluded her video and encouraged her fans to open up about their imperfections.
âI am just as vulnerable to seeing somebody on Instagram and seeing a photo of a girl who I think has a perfect body or a perfect face or perfect hair and of comparing myself and judging myself and of carrying so much shame because I donât look like that,â she told the camera. âIâll never look like that or being praised that I have a big butt, but I find it really difficult to get dressed. And there are things, and you know, I may have a lot of things in my life that are different from yours, but I think this is something that is very equalizing for a lot of people. And I just wanted you guys to know that you are not alone and that I feel this way too.
âSocial media is not the place to find value,â she added. âAnd I say that as someone whoâs trying to find that as well. So I hope this was helpful. I hope that in being vulnerable myself, like I see so many others doing.â
