'Riverdale' star Lili Reinhart criticizes celebrities who starved themselves for the Met Gala after Kim Kardashian said she lost 16 pounds for the event

• Lili Reinhart said celebrities who discussed starving themselves for the Met Gala were "ignorant."
• "The toxicity of this industry sometimes really gets to me," Reinhart added.

"Riverdale" star Lili Reinhart described celebrities who openly discussed how they starved themselves for this year's Met Gala red carpet as ignorant and irresponsible.

Discussing Monday's Met Gala on her Instagram Stories, Reinhart wrote, according to Cosmopolitan: "To walk on a red carpet and do an interview where you say how starving you are because you haven't eaten carbs in the last month all to fit in a fucking dress? So wrong. So fucked on 100s of levels."

The 25-year-old actor continued that celebrities who detailed their crash diets displayed an "other-worldly" level of ignorance.

"To openly admit to starving yourself for the sake of the Met Gala when you know very well that millions of young men and women are looking up to you and listening to your every word," she added. "The ignorance is other-worldly disgusting."

According to the UK's Metro newspaper, Reinhart concluded her message by urging her fans to stop supporting "stupid, harmful celebrities" who create their entire public image around their bodies.

"I am not generally an angry person but I swear to god, the toxicity of this industry sometimes really gets to me and I have to do my little Instagram-Story rants to release my rage," she said.

Although she didn't name any names, many on social media linked Reinhart's comments to Kim Kardashian who discussed the extreme diet she underwent to fit into her gown on the Met Gala red carpet.

Kardashian arrived at the gala wearing the vintage dress Marilyn Monroe wore to sing "Happy Birthday" to then-President John F. Kennedy in 1962. Kardashian told Vogue that she did not initially fit into the dress, which could not be altered, when it was brought to her house. As a result, the reality star said she lost 16 pounds in just three weeks to fit into the vintage dress.

"I would wear a sauna suit twice a day, run on the treadmill, completely cut out all sugar and all carbs, and just eat the cleanest veggies and protein," Kardashian told Vogue. "I didn't starve myself, but I was so strict."
