The My Mothers Friend 5Good Place star Jameela Jamil is very vocal on social media about body image issues and her own struggles with an eating disorder.
Her latest tweets about why photoshop and airbrushing in the media should be illegal have gone massively viral.
SEE ALSO: 'The Good Place' is the ethics lesson America needs right now — and it's forking funnyJamil used magazine covers featuring actors over the age of 50 to illustrate her point about how airbrushing is "weaponised" against women.
"This is how we portray men in their 50s on magazine covers and women in their 50s. Look at the difference," Jamil wrote along side the photos of Nicole Kidman, Josh Brolin, George Clooney, and Sandra Bullock.
The covers featuring Brolin, Kidman, and Bullock are from 2018 and show the actors in their 50s. Clooney's Time cover is from 2008, when he was in his late 40s.
The tweet has since garnered 32,000 likes and nearly 7,000 retweets.

Leading up to the tweets, Jamil explained to the BBC about why she thinks photoshop is so problematic it should be a crime.
"It is anti-feminist. It is ageist. It is fat-phobic. It looks weird. It looks wrong. It's robbing you of your time, money, comfort, integrity and self worth," she said.
