Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and other forms of social media have changed the way we see celebrities. Many of them even manage their own accounts and share photos, videos and let you inside their lives, something that wasn’t possible years ago. It’s a way of getting closer to their fans, but many times they become victims of bullying. People hide behind their cellphones or a computer screen and write mean hurtful things about people they don’t even know, based on headlines or some gossip they hear. Adamari Lopez has been a victim of bullying and she thinks it’s due to the type of mood they’re in.

We’ve watched the 44-year-old cancer survivor grow up on screen, since she started working in both Puerto Rican and Mexican Telenovelas at only 9 years old. We’ve seen her go through a high-profile public breakup with Luis Fonsi and even her struggle with breast cancer and not being able to conceive. In 2015 she gave birth to Alaïa, which is everything she ever wanted and the proud mom even created an Instagram account for her daughter. She’s always been very open about her life, something that many celebrities don’t do because of course it comes with a price.
“You try not to pay attention to the comments…I’m not saying that they don’t affect you. The way I see it, I always try to find the positive side, and that’s in general, in life,” she says.
Lopez thinks that often people reflect how they are feeling when they talk and if they are in a good mood, they will make nice comments and if they’re not, then they are just reflecting how they feel.
“I’ve had people everywhere saying I was pregnant,” she said to the Suelta La Sopa show. Many times she explains that it’s what she’s wearing that makes her look bigger than she really is. “We are human beings, and no one likes to be called chubby all the time,” she explains. “Not when you are pregnant, and especially not when you are not.”
Online bullying is a serious issue because it can lead to depression and anxiety. It’s not something that should not be taken lightly and something that not only affects celebrities, but in particular young people.
