Actress Gabourey Sidibe says compliments about her weight loss annoys her

Gabourey Sidibe’s transformation has many in awe but the actress says she gets annoyed when people congratulate her over her weight loss.

In an interview with Refinery29, she said:

“It just annoys me because I’m just like, don’t congratulate me on that. If you’re going to congratulate me on my weight loss, also congratulate me every time I pee.

Congratulate me every time I’m burping. Because my body actually has nothing to do with you, and I don’t really need your support for it.

My body will always be my body and always had been, and you have nothing to do with it and you’re kind of a stranger. But the way it works is that this is just my body. In the same way that this is just my face, this is just mine.”
