Amber Rose felt ‘body shamed’ by Julianne

Amber Rose admits she felt "body shamed" by Julianne Hough on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ because the judge claimed it was uncomfortable watching her be picked up by her partner.

Amber Rose felt "body shamed" by Julianne Hough on ‘Dancing with the Stars’.

The 32-year-old model says she was upset when the blonde judge commented on her salsa as she felt she was being mean about her weight.

Amber – who has lost around 10lbs since being partnered with Maksim Chmerkovskiy – said on her podcast show ‘Loveline’: "They did the commentary, and I, it was a point in the dance where I had to lift my leg up and Maks dipped me & [Julianne] said, ‘Oh, I’m uncomfortable,’ and instantly I felt, I did feel body shamed.

"You know, all the beautiful professional dancers that are on ‘Dancing With the Stars’, I mean they dress very sexy and they do the splits and they grind up on these guys and they look absolutely stunning and get a standing ovation. And me, and my body, my hips, my ass, my breasts made her uncomfortable."

However, Julianne – who has previously won the show – insists that couldn’t be further from the truth.

She told ‘E! News’: "To be clear, that was a produced package, not live coverage and they can put those sound bites anywhere. My ‘uncomfortable’ comment was about the fact that I felt like I wanted more out of the performance – when someone is doing a hot, sexy dance like that without the right amount of energy that is required, it can be uncomfortable to watch.

"Trust me I’m ALL for a sexy booty dance!! We all know that!! And any kind of body shaming goes against everything I believe in."
