Susan Sarandon’s child, Eva Amurri, has criticized persons who said they were offended by the look of her breasts in her bridal dress, saying she felt “hot grief” when she read the nasty comments online.
Amurri, a blog and professional, is the child of Franco Amurri, an Italian filmmaker and actor who met on the set of the 1981 film Tempest. She was raised by Sarandon and her family’s long-time lover, Tim Robbins.
On June 29, Amurri and restaurant Ian Hock got married in Paris, with People being the only ones to share the initial images. However for Amurri, the comment section was flooded with people criticizing her for wearing a strapless gown, with one poster saying,” Terrible dress!!!! Thus ugly! Put them away”!
Then Amurri has addressed the comments in a blogging article titled:” What My Wedding Dress Taught Me About Why We’re F*****” on her website, Gladly Eva After, referring to the event as “boobgate”.
On Thursday, Newsweek emailed an Amurri member for comment.
Amurri claimed she was shocked when she took a minute to check out the Persons Instagram post and that she felt wonderful and delighted on her special day.
“I was so taken aback by the notion that it was already popular…. and for two reasons entirely out of my power: My Breasts”, she wrote. ” But here I was, staring at hundreds of violent responses… I experienced a flash of warm grief that immediately brought me to Middle School. Here were people who I did n’t even know and who didn’t care for me, typing something that they hoped would bring me one thing, one thing only: Shame. And for a minute, it worked”.
Amurri explained that it wasn’t just the specific things that people were writing about that affected her, as she claimed that there have been even worse things written about her online. It was the fact that it seemed like people were trying to hurt her family on such a special day.
She claimed that on a special day when she was” simply trying to feel beautiful,” she was being “picked off” by strangers online. Amurri said she never imagined that people would react so strongly to the way her figure looked in the wedding gown she wore.
As Amurri was processing what she called “emotional aggression” from people she didn’t know, she realized the problem was with those writing hateful comments, not her.
She added: “I kept scrolling in horror at the responses, with the light going off in my head like a jet start: WE ARE COMPLETELY F*****!! What has society come to, when you can either be hot beautiful, nor quietly beautiful, on your own terms, at your own wedding”?
Instead of a number of other more pressing issues currently roiling the earth, the artist questioned why her bridal dress went popular.
Her own mother frequently makes political statements in the press, and she has recently spoken out against the Israel-Hamas conflict.
