She's my hero, as a woman and an actress.
Recently, Bryce has been getting a lot of press, but not for a good reason. She's being ridiculed for being a new mom.Bryce, 31, gave birth to her second child, an adorable little girl named Beatrice, in January.
This past month, she was photographed around town with her newborn and the photos were posted on TMZ.
Every troll on the internet has been wetting themselves with delight over the photos, which show Bryce is a normal human being.
The horrible names she is called in the comments sections and on blogs make me shudder. It stuns me that there are so many ignorant and thoughtless people out there who don't realize it is not normal to go from giving birth to a size zero in a week.
But that is the perception Hollywood gives us. We've seen celeb moms like Beyonce and Angelina boast sexy bodies just weeks after popping out a kid. But that is not realistic and certainly not very healthy, in my opinion.
Weight loss should be a gradual process, whether you're losing baby weight or those extra 20 pounds before swimsuit season.
Bryce isn't the only Hollywood mom being scrutinized. Jessica Simpson has been criticized as well.
And thousands of miles away, it seems the most beautiful woman in the world isn't immune to such treatment.
In fact, Bollywood superstar Aishwarya Rai is being even more ripped apart in her homeland. The former Miss Universe gave birth to her first child six months ago.
Newspapers and magazines in India have been severely criticizing the actress, who has been deemed a "traitor" to her country for not losing the baby weight quickly. Thousands of commenters said it was Aishwarya's duty as a Bollywood actress to look good and fit at all times.
Others suggested she could learn a thing or two from celebs like Victoria Beckham who went back to a size zero weeks after her delivery. A few concerned commenters suggested the once-thin Aishwarya should now kill herself.
There are even videos of the actress online, complete with elephant noises.
Instead of celebrating these mothers, the world is spitting on them.
