Rumer Willis is stripping down to share a powerful message about self-love.
The 31-year-old actress posed in a plunging gray bra ($36) and boxers ($32) from Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS brand on Instagram Monday, writing, “This is just an appreciation post for my body because I think it’s important to celebrate ourselves.”
Continued Demi Moore and Bruce Willis’ eldest daughter, “My body does so much for me and works so hard for me. But more often than not the only thing it hears it what is wrong with it. What is lacking or what there is too much of.”
Willis added that quarantine has taken a toll on her healthy lifestyle — and, in turn, on her confidence. “Finding discipline to workout from home and eat healthy is hard and it’s ok not to be perfect, I’m certainly not,” she wrote.
“What is important is to find ways to be happy where you are at and not make being a perfect size or weight or hair color or body shape some goal that you can only find happiness and acceptance if you reach it.”
While stars like Paris Hilton, Serayah and Betty Who praised Willis’ candid words in the comments, one fan was a bit more critical: “Easy for you to say with your perfect body!!!,” she wrote. “I know I’m trying to learn self love but come on!!”
The “House Bunny” star replied, insisting that the shot was “just a good angle” and promising to share footage that proved it — and several hours later, she did just that, posting an “unedited, unfiltered” video of herself in the same SKIMS set while continuing the conversation.

“Just because I can take a great photo, that doesn’t mean that I still don’t have problems,” Willis explained in the five-minute clip. “You know, sometimes my stomach isn’t as flat as I want it to be, and sometimes I feel like my arms look huge in photos, and sometimes I feel like my thighs are massive … But they’re all things that I’m sure I notice much more than anybody else does.”
Describing body image struggles as “very equalizing” and admitting she sometimes feels “shame” when faced with photos of modelesque Instagram influencers, the actress reiterated that she’s “working really hard” to love the skin she’s in.
