Sharon Rooney


Sharon Rooney is one of the few celebrities who are comfortable with their own skin. She conveyed a body-positive image when she expressed that being called fat doesn’t affect her. It is quite amazing for someone like her to not be affected and pressured by societies’ standards.

Rooney is a Scottish comedian who rose to fame after she took the role of the disturbed teenage girl, Rae, in the TV series My Mad Fat Diary in 2013. She also received recognition for her portrayal of the same role. Unlike her character in the series, Rae, who is very much concerned about her weight, Rooney is the opposite. She is said to be more cheerful and happy about herself. She received credit for other TV shows, too, such as Sherlock in 2014 and Brief Encounter in 2016. Despite the positive mindset she has for her body, it was noted that the only thing that she doesn’t like is being photographed.
