Chloe Grace Moretz Appalled By Fat Shaming Snow White

Chloë Grace Moretz is speaking out against the poster for her upcoming blockbuster animated film, Red Shoes & the 7 Dwarfs. The campaign imagines how Snow White would look if she swallowed Lena Dunham and includes the caption ‘What if Snow White was no longer beautiful and the 7 Dwarfs not so short?” She wouldn’t be famous and they wouldn’t be dwarfs. They’d be real people.  

Moretz lends her voice to the titular plump freak, and apparently didn’t sign off on the ad campaign, tweeting:

I have now fully reviewed the mkting for Red Shoes, I am just as appalled and angry as everyone else, this wasn’t approved by me or my team. Pls know I have let the producers of the film know. I lent my voice to a beautiful script that I hope you will all see in its entirety.

Resident body shaming witch hunt ringleader Tess Holliday chimes in:

How did this get approved by an entire marketing team? Why is it okay to tell young kids being fat = ugly?

Cartoons are frequent body shaming offenders. Nobody wanted to fuck the hippopotamuses in Fantasia. Their weight was even used for comedic effect. Shame on Disney. What does that say to clinically obese audiences everywhere? They’ll never get fucked by slender alligators. Ursula transformed into a hot piece of ass when she wanted to rail Prince Eric. Tess Holliday would have sunken the ship. 

Kids already know that fat = unattractive. Disney has fortified anorexia as the key to acceptance for decades. The four-inch waists on Disney princesses assure even thin kids that they’ll always be just a little uglier by comparison. The ad for Red Shoes will go down as one of the year’s biggest successes for story-starved body shaming shamers. Outcries against finally representing Holliday in cartoon form have already elicited an apology from a studio producer:

As the producer of the theatrical animated film Red Shoes and the 7 Dwarfs, now in production, Locus Corporation wishes to apologize regarding the first elements of our marketing campaign (in the form of a Cannes billboard and a trailer) which we realize has had the opposite effect from that which was intended. That advertising campaign is being terminated

Our film, a family comedy, carries a message designed to challenge social prejudices related to standards of physical beauty in society by emphasizing the importance of inner beauty. We appreciate and are grateful for the constructive criticism of those who brought this to our attention.

Inner beauty in Hollywood. A Fairytale ending.
