At 54 you can’t afford to wear a bikini. At least that seems to be the thought of those who didn’t waste time commenting on the actress’ video without too many words Donna D’Errico shared on July 4th to commemorate United States Independence Day. The unforgettable former Baywatch star wore a costume in his country’s colors, a personal way of taking part in the celebrations. Nevertheless, he had to endure a flood of social comments full of criticism for his election, which he decided to do react in kind (and with a different bikini).
Donna D’Errico in a bikini at 54, the answer to the criticism
There is no avoiding toxic comments on social media, even if you are Donna D’Errico and at 54 you have the looks of a deity descended from Olympus. The Stars and Stripes actress and model decided to celebrate America’s Independence Day in her own way last July 4th and posted on Instagram a Video in a very pinched red, white and blue bikini, the colors of his country. After all, there is no such “flashy” choice: can’t we share what we like via social media? Apparently not.
A few days later, D’Errico wanted to offer her opinion on the dozens of comments she’d received just on the “offensive” video, not cute at all. And his response to the criticism is textbook: “Many women have complained the 4th of July video I posted in a red, white and blue bikini because they thought I was “more dressy than that” and “Too Old for a Bikini” and, my favorite, “desperate”. Let me tell you something that might surprise you. I can actually wear and literally do whatever I want“.
“Too old”, even “distressed” and inelegant. Unfortunate words and frankly pretty bad too. Because yes – there is no point in walking around it – behind the keyboard and the screen there is often envy and malice and it hurts even more to know that these destructive feelings come from other women. We’ve seen it a thousand times on the profiles of celebs like Marina La Rosa, who is also “accused” of being too old. And the much-vaunted “female solidarity” will be blessed again.
But Donna D’Errico isn’t there and her response should serve as a warning to us all. We have the right to wear what we like, when we want it and deem it appropriate, without letting ourselves be swayed by the comments (mostly anonymous, by the way) of those who straight-leg themselves into our lives without asking them. And that “By the way, here I am in a bikini on a coffee table ❤️” is the icing on the cake that makes us love her even more.
