Camila Cabello embraces her 'cellulite and stretch marks and fat' in viral video about body acceptance

• Camila Cabello spoke about body acceptance in a TikTok video she shared Friday.
• After running in a midriff-baring top, Cabello talked herself out of feeling momentarily insecure.
• She showed off her stomach and said she embraces "curves," "cellulite," "stretch marks," and "fat."

After Camila Cabello felt momentarily insecure for wearing a shirt that showed her midsection, the 24-year-old Grammy-nominated musician shared a message encouraging herself - and her fans - to accept and embrace their bodies.

In a viral TikTok video she shared from the passenger seat of a car Friday, the "Havana" singer explained she had just finished up a run in an outdoor park.

"I'm wearing a top that shows my belly, and I wasn't tucking it in 'cause I was running and existing like a normal person that doesn't tuck it in all the time," she said, shifting the camera so that viewers could see her bare stomach.

Cabello said she experienced a sudden pang of body-consciousness while wearing the top before talking herself out of it.

"I reminded myself being at war with your body is so last season," she said, continuing, "I am grateful for this body that lets me do what I need to do."

Cabello added, "We are real women with curves and cellulite and stretch marks and fat. And we gotta own that, baby."

She ended the video by singing lyrics from "Something He Can Feel," a track from the 1976 movie "Sparkle." The TikTok video has been viewed on the platform over 17.4 million times at the time of publication.

Cabello has previously spoken out against the unrealistic beauty standards placed on women.

In 2019, the "Cinderella" lead said that despite her efforts to stay off of social media to avoid hurtful comments, she unintentionally came across a headline reporting online criticisms of her physique.

"Honestly the first thing I felt was super insecure just IMAGINING what these pictures must look like," she wrote in a story on Instagram at the time.

She continued: "Oh no! My cellulite! Oh no! I didn't suck in my stomach! But then I was like... of course there are bad pictures, of course there are bad angles, my body's not made of f---ing rock, or all muscle, for that matter."

Cabello added that society has normalized a "completely unrealistic view of a woman's body," writing that "cellulite" and "fat" are "normal," "beautiful," and "natural."

"I won't buy into the bulls--- today!!!!" she wrote, adding, "Not today satan. and I hope you don't either."
