After posting a photo with which He confesses that he is in the worst shape of his life, the American actor and musician, Will Smith, made a challenge viral on social networks, inviting, in a joking tone, other men to show their “quarantine bodies.”
The artist selected the ones he considered most unique and fun, and shared them on his Instagram account. Will’s published “footage” shows a group of men, in shorts and shirtless, gracefully displaying their bellies, hairs, cellulite and blemishes.
Although the challenge has served to normalize the “imperfect bodies”, and deconstructing the concept of beauty that the western canon has popularized, sold and exploited, Smith has confessed that, although he loves his body, he is committed to losing weight. In the particular case of the Hollywood star, his acting career weighs heavily, where he is forced to play various characters that require an athletic complexion.
The challenge was very well received by Internet users on Instagram. In less than 6 hours, the publication had almost 3 million likes.
Smith, who is also a rapper, acknowledged that the quarantine took its toll and that to remedy it, he will say goodbye to the midnight muffins.
“This is the body that I have achieved after a whole pandemic and countless days raiding the pantry. I love this body, but I want to feel better. No more midnight muffins… that’s it! I’ll get in the best shape of my life! teaming up with YouTube to get my health and wellness back on track. Hope it works! “, The 52-year-old actor commented on Instagram when he shared a photo showing his body without modesty.

At the bottom of the photos of the challenge, a netizen referred to how culturally these kinds of jokes are allowed with men, who can show a slight overweight without detriment to their attractiveness. Meanwhile, women are required to have a stricter beauty standard, where showing the belly, cellulite or imperfections is less common, despite the fact that several influencers and activists in favor of gender equality try successfully, from their own social networks, demystify perfect bodies and the relationship between beauty and thinness.
“I love how men take things, nothing to do with women”, one user commented.
