If you've ever hated what you see when you look in the mirror, just take a page from Selena Gomez's playbook.

The pop star took to Instagram to address critics who body-shamed her after photos emerged of her on a yacht and wearing a bikini, which revealed scars from the kidney transplant she underwent in 2017.

Gomez shared a video of her and friends on the yacht Monday, along with the following powerful caption:

The beauty myth- an obsession with physical perfection that traps modern woman in an endless cycle of hopelessness, self consciousness, and self-hatred as she tries to fulfill society's impossible definition of flawless beauty. I chose to take care of myself because I want to, not to prove anything to anyone. Wind in her sails. 🌈💜

DUDES HAVE TO DEAL WITH BODY-SHAMING, TOO.

Just ask Jay Cutler, Leonardo DiCaprio, Vin Diesel, and Jonah Hill. If you've experienced it yourself, let their perfect responses be your masterclass in how to deal.

In 2017, when photos emerged of Russell Crowe kicking a rugby ball in a sleeveless shirt, Page Six declared that the actor "no longer looks like a gladiator." Shock jock Howard Stern also allegedly joked about Crowe's body, according to one Twitter user.

Just like the warrior he truly is, Crowe pointed out that he "can bench press young Howard... he cannot say the same..."

In 2015, when Vin Diesel was slammed by various publications for his physique, the Fast and the Furious actor took to Facebook to share a simple positive response: "All love."

Now there's a message we can live by.
