Lauren London Brilliantly Claps Back at Trolls Who Body-Shamed Her

The actress wasn't here for the hate.

Lauren London is considered one of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood, but somehow, some folks seemed to consider her less attractive after seeing recent photos of her post-baby body.

Not feeling the pressure from social media to snap back, the former The Game star took to Instagram to let the world know that she's not bothered by the hate and will always be secure in her image, regardless of her weight.

After receiving a surprising amount of criticism and being the subject of weight gain debates, the actress came back with the perfect response to her critics.

"I've been getting compliments on my looks for years," she wrote on IG. "I NEVER let it 'gas me' because I knew the enduring value in all things is internal. When I decided to have my son, I knew the internet would be cruel. I knew the casting directors would consider me out of commission for at least a year. I knew that MY BODY would change, but I did not let the fear of these things affect me to the point of going against my spirit."

Take a look at her full statement, below:
