A model has shared her battle with an incurable condition that causes struggles when walking – saying evil bullies call her “penguin.” Victoria Matosa used to work out tirelessly in the gym but didn’t notice any results, leaving her feeling deflated. She had no idea that a health condition was standing in the way of her fitness progress. At school, the influencer, who now has 4.3 million followers on Instagram (@soyvictoriamatosa), was bullied for the appearance of her “thick” legs, with peers giving her cruel nicknames. Feeling too “ashamed” to leave the house and wear certain clothes, such as shorts, Victoria sought out medical advice and was diagnosed with lipedema, an incurable disease that causes abnormal fatty deposits to build up unevenly in the body. Now, the 26-year-old is hoping to raise awareness about the condition and help others accept themselves. “I always had thick legs but it started to get worse after [I started getting] my period [and] I couldn’t even wear shorts outside the house, I felt too ashamed,” Victoria told NeedToKnow.co.uk. “I started to avoid going to the beach and only [wore] leggings and jeans, which made me very uncomfortable, [as well as] distancing myself from friends out of embarrassment. “Due to bullying and pressure to always be doing a lot of exercise to lose weight, I tried many restrictive diets, which resulted in me binge-eating. “I [used to] spend three hours in the gym until I reached exhaustion, giving up and then eating compulsively.” Victoria, from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was diagnosed in February 2023.

While “relieved” to finally have an answer for her unusual symptoms, she’s also been left sad knowing that the only options are to either have surgery or go on a restricted diet for the rest of her life. The influencer said: “It was a mixture of feelings – before, I blamed myself for not being able to lose weight in my legs, even working out intensely. “Now, I go to the gym and have an anti-inflammatory diet, but I don’t feel ready to [have an] operation, as I’d have to do three liposuctions. “I feel sad and discouraged with each passing day [but] I try to accept and love myself more.” While sharing her health battle online, Victoria has received lots of praise but has also experienced her fair share of verbal “attacks”. She added: “I’ve already suffered a lot of bullying on the internet, people didn’t like me because of my weight and my body. “I got tired of receiving messages of curses that only had the objective of hurting me. “This continues to be routine in my life, only different than before, because I don’t let these people make me feel like a monster. “In my love life, I’ve been very lucky. “I haven’t dated much but the relationships I have had never had insecurities with my body and they [my partners] made me feel very secure about myself. “I want to be able to help other women, because after revealing lipedema on Instagram, I had several reports from women who felt bad and didn’t know they had this.” Have your say in our news democracy.

Zendaya recreated one of Naomi Campbell’s iconic Louis Vuitton ads against a surprising backdrop. The actor’s signature stylist, Law Roach, took to Instagram on 2 October to share the moment of Zendaya posing with the black and brown purse, which had the iconic logo for the luxury brand on it. In the video, the Euphoria star could be seen holding up the handbag and striking a pose, while standing in an elevator. Roach proceeded to film the actor, as she went on to slightly arch her back and look up towards the ceiling. She had the bottom of the purse placed on the palm of one hand and held the bag’s straps with her other hand. There was also a special meaning behind the elevator video, as it recreated one of Campbell’s 2004 Louis Vuitton photoshoots, in which she was holding the same multi-coloured bag as Zendaya. “Giving a little @naomi this Monday afternoon. Top and bag from @louisvuitton SS 2004,” Roach wrote in the caption, referring to Zendaya’s gold shirt with puffy sleeves, which she paired with blue jeans. In the ad, Campbell was also wearing the same shirt. In the initial photo shoot, Campbell could be seen with her hands on her hip, and the Louis Vuitton bag on her arm. She paired her shirt with matching gold underwear, while she had her hair in a high ponytail, and was wearing red lipstick. Along with writing four red heart emojis in the comments of Roach’s post, the model also re-shared the video to her own Instagram Story on 2 October. Many famous faces and fans also went to the comments of the stylist’s post to praise Zendaya’s recreation of Campbell’s photoshoot. “This just made my day,” Marc Jacobs wrote, along with a red heart emoji, while another fan added: “Obsessed is an understatement.” “LITERAL SLAY. Naomi x Zendaya by Law Roach will break the internet,” a third wrote. The Dune star’s elevator photoshoot came shortly after she attended Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week. For the occasion, she wore a white gown with a plunging neckline and double zipper detail on the front. The zipper dress was zipped up from her stomach to her thighs, allowing the dress to showcase its slit. For accessories, Zendaya opted for a series of gold rings and bracelets, while she had her straightened hair down and wore pink lipstick. Along with the Disney Channel alum, some of the celebrities on the star-studded guest list for the show included Cate Blanchett, Gemma Chan, Jaden Smith, and the creative director of Louis Vuitton’s menswear, Pharell Williams.
