Itatí Cantoral was 11 years old when she started working in television. From her time in the TV show “La telaraña” to the soap opera “Where there was fire” there are 36 years of experience: some of her characters did not have a husband, others left their mark on popular culture and many others have contributed to her staying relevant. . There is no doubt that his career supports his fame.
That’s why it’s impossible for Itatí Cantoral to go unnoticed. If it’s not because of her work as an actress, then because of one or another scandal, the result of an unfortunate interpretation of the song “La Guadalupana” or a failed love affair. However, the actress’ name has not been mentioned in the last few months for these reasons. Now it’s about his physique.
I’m talking about other people’s bodies again…
What began with Instagram users criticizing the photos he posted on his profile escalated into a publication with nationwide distribution.
TV Notas magazine revealed that the actress was worried about the production of “The Lord of the Skies” because “she lives on intermittent fasting in her desire to be as thin as possible.” They accused her of being in the She claimed not to have eaten in the catering industry and assured that her colleagues had “seen that she was suffering from dizziness”.
Although Itatí Cantoral did not respond directly to the publication’s statements, she was asked about the issue. Basically, he was aware that as a public figure he was exposed to people’s opinions. However, contrary to what is said, she is “a healthy woman” who has always been very thin and is worried about her health: “You have to take care of yourself, you have to exercise.” “I really eat gladly,” he said.
The 48-year-old actress has already been criticized for her thin body.
Just like the rest of the world, Itatí shares her everyday life with her Instagram followers. And like many other celebrities, she has also been the target of crime. Something that has become more common in recent months.

Last August, he had to delete a picture from his social network to curb his haters. The criticism and comments on a photo in a bikini forced her to speak: “They ask too much of us women, that we are too thin, that we are too fat, that we are too old, that we are too young.”, said.
She explained that regardless of the opinions of her critics, she exercises a lot, eats healthy and does intermittent fasting to look good.
Cantoral recalled at the time: “Every time you put yourself out there on social networks, you expose yourself to criticism.” She urged those who received the same comments as her not to feel bad; and remarked, “The most important thing is to love yourself.”
Although his age and experience in the world of entertainment helped him “not hold any grudges” from negative comments, they still got to him in the end: “Well, obviously. Naturally. If you put a lot of effort and upload your photo to your social network, and suddenly (you get comments on it) she looks very bad, she is very thin, is she sick?”
It’s not just Itatí, everyone is criticized
Last July, the weight issue was shelved and replaced with “excess filters.” In a post where she shared portraits showing her with the sea in the background, the Mexican was criticized by those who claimed she used “too many filters”. The comments even said, “It’s not you in these photos.” This issue wasn’t necessary.”
At that moment Itatí said nothing, but a month later she spoke again about the demands on women: “Especially the little girls. When you go down as an adult, imagine the girls. They even think about suicide because of a bad comment and severe bullying.”
The protagonist of “The Mexican and the Guero” places particular emphasis on the theme of self-love among young women, as she has a 15-year-old daughter, María Itatí. He sent a message to her: “It’s not what others say about you that matters, but rather that you feel comfortable with your body and, above all, with your health.”
The actress has asked social media users for tolerance and urged them to put an end to fatphobia, “skinnyphobia” and ageism: “Do what you can.” Bless God, as my mother would say. One day more life.”
The sad thing is that the performer had to normalize bullying because she is “used to it”, especially because she has been dedicated to this career since childhood and because she is the daughter of the famous Mexican singer and composer Roberto Cantoral: “ We know that “We put ourselves at risk of being constantly made fun of, in the magazine, in Chacaleo, wherever,” he said.
We accept that Itatí Cantoral is used to memorizing the scripts to do excellent work in front of the camera or on stage, that she is used to applauding, even that she is used to speaking like Soraya Montenegro , but you wouldn’t have to get used to reading hateful comments or cruel comments on the photos you post.
