Aubrey O'Day spoke out about the candid photos with E! News, admitting she was relentlessly bullied over the images. "When it came time to laugh at me, everybody was laughing," she shared. "My body's been on the chopping block since I was 17. Those were not the first fat photos. There's been a lot of fat photos of Aubrey and I wasn't even fat. I'll spend the rest of my life trying to heal with how many inaccurate things have been told about me," she added, but noted she's started feeling more confident in her own skin, which is why she stripped down for her "Couple Goals" music video.

The star previously appeared to open up about all the attention her body gets in her 2021 single "Body Love High," in which she sings about confidence. "Glowing confident in your skin/Step into the light and shine/No one shapes your life, you know the way/Be what you feel inside," the lyrics read, per Genius.

More recently, O'Day was called out on social media for seemingly heavily editing her photos on Instagram — causing her to clap back. "If I want my Instagram to be curated like a museum of ART then that's what the f*** is going to happen," she wrote on Instagram in August. "Respect my aesthetic, I work hard to give y'all beautiful content that feels the way places I travel vibrate."
