Padma Lakshmi, 50, defends posting lingerie photos: 'I’m proud of looking cute'
If you don't appreciate Padma Lakshmi's sexy photos, the delete button is right over there. "I’m proud of looking cute," the Top Chef host said of her Instagram posts.
In a new interview with The Cut, the author and television star spoke with chef and former Bon Appétit editor Sohla El-Waylly about kitchen memories with daughter Krishna, 11, the "social reckoning" of 2020 and the reaction (backlash) to her bikini pictures on Instagram.
"I get flak for saying what I think about the right to choose, immigration, Black Lives Matter, women’s rights, endometriosis, all of it," Lakshmi told El-Waylly. "I also get flak for people saying, 'Oh, you never complain when it’s Black-on-Asian hate, only when it’s white-on-Asian hate.' I’m like, 'No. For the record, I’m just complaining about Asian hate. I don’t care who’s doing the hating.' It’s just wrong."
Lakshmi continued, "Or I’ll put up a sexy picture of myself, but I’m proud of looking cute because I’ve been working out or something, and I get shit for that. It’s like, listen, I was a lingerie model. When I was 23, or 24, or 25, nobody said anything negative about me wearing lingerie. Why are you saying that now and it’s like the most tame picture?"
When asked about people talking about her body, Lakshmi called it a "phenomenon is as old as time; people are comfortable regulating a woman’s body. People are comfortable making laws about women’s bodies, prohibiting medicines that women’s bodies need. They are expert and enthusiastic participants in subjugating a woman’s body, who they’ve never met or seen on a national level. One diss on Instagram, that’s child’s play.
