She told E! News: “People are not used to reality nowadays. People are used to FaceTune apps to make you prettier, more beautiful.
“I think it’s alright to use them, but it’s even more important to let them know what your tricks are to get to that result.”
The 29-year-old diva has had breast augmentations, a nose operation, and jaw shaping treatments, and she is eager to let her fans know exactly what she underwent to achieve her current appearance.
She urged people to “be nice to themselves” and made the point that young people could idolise someone they see on social media or the red carpet without realising the amount of work that has gone into creating that person’s image.
She explained: “Teenagers nowadays don’t know exactly what’s going on. Their bodies are starting to grow and they expect to have the same results as grown women who have done so much work to their bodies.”
Anitta – who has teamed up with Lay’s for the Stay Golden campaign focused on joy – also pointed to the importance of living “in the moment”.
She said: “Sometimes we are living this online life so much that we forget to live the moment. For me, staying golden is to stay in the moment. Shine, look for your own light.”
