Gabrielle Union has been very vocal about the importance of self-love after struggling with low self-esteem in the past.
The actress continued to spread that message on April 24, after sharing a short clip honoring herself and her features.
In the Instagram post, Union, who wore a multi-colored bikini with a floral coverup, is seen parading around what appears to be her backyard as a voice-over track played in the background. The voice-over track was accompanied by Guy’s 1989 hit song “I Like.”
As she posed throughout the video, Union’s voice track said, “With my little butt self look at me go. God bless my pigeon-toed self. Oh glasses are dirty.” The “Cheaper by the Dozen” star expressed how content she is with “doing the most.”
She wrote, “I can’t help it. I be doing the most and I’m Ok with that.” As Union’s upload began circulating online, many commended the star for “embracing” her natural body and herself.
“Love her embracing her natural body.”
“She’s the definition of natural body and still it’s perfection. Go girl. Let’s normalize this again.”
“It’s giving embracing her natural self.”
“Giving herself some love, love to see it.”
“Keep promoting that all natural, I’m here for it.”
Among the praise, a couple of individuals thanked Union for representing slim women. One wrote, “Thank you for representing all of us slim chicks with big personalities and bigger smiles!! Natural body parts still rule!!”
Another said, “Thank you for representing us slim women. You have the resources to look anyway that you please but chose the natural route. Representation is everything. There are many you ladies watching.”
Union’s post comes days after the actress shared a video showcasing how her and her husband Dwyane Wade maintain their athletic physiques. The exercises included leg press, inclined treadmill and lifting weighted dumbbells.
