Celebrities are forever under the body-scrutiny magnifying glass, so whenever they take matters into their own hands and share a nothing-but-skivvies selfie, we've got to give 'em props. Here, we're looking back at stars of all shapes and sizes who've spread body positivity to their millions of followers by stripping down and shutting the haters up.
Lena Dunham
Always proud of her curvy figure, Dunham wrote: "Love my @lonelylingerie and I think I will wear it to dinner with some boots & a smile because we are all very lucky to be free." Amen, sista!
Heidi Klum
Having a ball in nothing but her panties alongside designer Zac Posen, this snap is a perfect reminder that with her killer confidence, she is, and always will be, a 10. Got that, Donald Trump?
Tallulah Willis
Willis, who famously stripped down to raise awareness about body dysmorphia, shared this #selfie in her monochrome white underpinnings.
Lady Gaga
Gaga, who's always the first to laugh in the face of body critics, decided to begin the day working out in her leopard panties. "Starting my day off feeling strong, gotta sweat out the whiskey from last nights jam session," she wrote on Instagram.
Abbie Cornish
Totally unashamed of her shapewear, Cornish posted her nude Spanx set for all of her nearly 50,000 followers to see.
Gigi Hadid
Hadid posted this snap, putting her beauty marks on full display in her Calvins. When a Twiter user asked if she gets bothered when they're Photoshopped out of picture, she replied: "Yes!!!!!!!"
Amber Rose
Slut shamers, don't even start with Amber Rose. She will destroy you! "U Guys Love Slut Shaming Huh?," she posed on Instagram alongside this lingerie snap. "Good. I feed off that shit. #HowtobeAbadBitch"
Beyoncé
Bey's 7/11 video was nothing if not a celebration of women letting loose in their underwear and for that we are forever #thankful.
Hilary Duff
Duff posted this body-baring pic captioned "Hey #moms #westillgotit #loveyourbod." She later told Ellen about the pic: "I'm just like everyone else; usually I'm not feeling so good. I have a love-hate relationship with my body," she said. "I'm just so proud of my body and what it's done for me. It gave me the most beautiful little boy and I feel strong and powerful and I wanted to inspire other women." *praise emoji*
Kim Kardashian
Choosing to forgo underwear completely, Kardashian made a pregnant-and-proud statement with this #selfie in the buff, which was filter- and Photoshop-free.
Miley Cyrus
Forever liberated by her birthday suit, Cyrus this snap is a total FU to the #FreetheNipple haters.
Lena Dunham
After getting bit by her dog, Dunham posted this candid #belfie, not caring whether or not her Instagram followers confused it with a visit from Aunt Flow.
Khloé Kardashian
A pro at sticking it to the haters that have body-shamed her, this snap is an unapologetic ode to her curves.
Rita Ora
To celebrate her track "I Will Never Let You Down" reaching number one, Ora posted this pic in nothing but her Calvins.
Rihanna
When it comes to her physique, RiRi is loud and proud. So her sipping red wine by the fire in a bra and not much else makes perfect sense to us.
Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora
Live from inside a dressing room, these ladies are here to remind you there's NADA wrong with horsing around out with your BFF in your skivvies.
Chrissy Teigen
No shrinking violet on social media, Teigen's T-shirt and underwear snap is NBD ever, but especially in comparison to her boundary-pushing snaps.
Vanessa Hudgens
Hudgens isn't afraid to borrow from the boys, wearing her Calvin Klein briefs poking out beneath low-slung shorts.
Kendall Jenner
It's true: nothing comes in between Jenner and her Calvins, but the same could be said for her beaming confidence.
Hilaria Baldwin
Proud of her pregnant bod, Baldwin shows off her mini bump using the hashtag #HilariaHealthy2015.
