"The other girls were so comfortable with their bodies and it eventually rubbed off on me"
About this Quote
Coming from an actress, the line carries an extra layer of subtext. Acting is an industry built on surveillance: camera angles, wardrobe fittings, auditions that reduce you to “type.” Against that backdrop, “comfortable with their bodies” reads as a minor rebellion, an alternative script to the one women are usually handed: be attractive, but pretend you don’t know you’re being evaluated; be polished, but never seem effortful. Langton’s phrasing refuses the makeover narrative. There’s no product, no transformation montage, just a social shift.
The intent feels less like confession than credit-giving. She’s naming the overlooked mechanism behind body acceptance: not self-discipline, but community norms. If insecurity spreads through comparison, she suggests, so can ease - when someone models it without apology.
