 New beauty trends

           In this article, I would like to introduce you to such a question as bodypositive on the example of a famous American singer. We are talking Billie Eilish

            Billie is an American singer-songwriter. She gained fame in 2016 by publishing her debut single "Ocean Eyes" on SoundCloud.  She quickly won the charts of streaming services, her unusual style of clothing, clear almost angelic voice and defiant clips lifted her to the music industry's pyedistal. Billie Eilish became a star of the new format, and after a well-deserved success, she began to dictate trends in the industry. 

          In 2020, the network leaked her photos where she goes grocery shopping, fans were amazed at the shape of Billie, for a year she gained a lot of pounds, for which many fans even reproached her. However, the reaction from the most Billie did not have to wait long. Almost immediately, she said to the whole world, " Stop judging a person by how they look, but I look like this, I'm comfortable, I don't feel bad because of my weight, and I don't want to adjust to the standards that society has imposed." With her strong statement, she has attracted the eyes of many people who struggle with being overweight, get depressed because they can't do it. For them, Billie became a real hero. She showed that you can love yourself in any state, it is important how you treat yourself, and all external factors are just conventions. 

          Delving into the history, Bodypositive is a social movement that advocates the right to feel comfortable in your body in any appearance, to Express yourself freely, and to accept other people's bodies as they are. The movement advocates positive perceptions of both one's own body image and acceptance of other people's bodies regardless of physical ability, size, gender, race, or appearance. 

          In addition to Billie Eilish, this movement can safely include Rihanna, Drew Barrymore, Adele and others. 

          The world is changing, and so are beauty standards. Who, no matter how popular people, will be able to carry the idea of beauty to the masses?
