Melanie Lynskey

Next Top Model winner Adrianne Curry deletes Twitter among backlash after body shaming actress Melanie Lynskey of The Last of Us and YellowJackets.

Well, that’s still not an excuse and as we all know Melissa is a kind soul who does not comment on criticism. It is also a very ignorant comment one who is not separating the character and actress. I’ve seen this type of talk in The Walking Dead fandom as well. Clearly, Adrianne didn’t believe Melanie’s body type was suited for the character. She is playing a person who meticulously plans an overthrow of FEDRA. We surely hope this is not the attitude of most top models.

Adrianne Curry deactivated her Twitter account after receiving backlash for body-shaming 'The Last of Us' actress Melanie Lynskey.

I don’t need to be muscly. She even cropped out the tweet where I praised her hourglass frame as the PERFECT body in the eyes of most men. I am supposed to be SMART, ma’am. I acted in a film that people tore my character to SHREDS. I am not the character. I understand that some people are mad that I’m not the typical casting for this role. Other than the moments after action is called, when you feel like you’re actually in someone else’s body, the most exciting part of my job is subverting expectations— Melanie Lynskey (@melanielynskey) I survived. Following the deactivation of her Twitter, Curry took to her Facebook to explain why she shut it down, arguing that her comments weren’t personal and complaining that Lynskey “screen shotted it and posted it for her fans to BULLY me over an opinion on a FICTIONAL CHARACTER. Her voice is too quiet. In a tweet that was shared in a screenshot by Lynskey, Curry wrote: “Her body says life of luxury… Her voice is too shrill.

[Celebrity](https://www.pajiba.com/celebrities_are_better_than_you/) [Dustin Rowles](https://www.pajiba.com/staff/dustin-rowles-1.php) Lynskey would never intentionally orchestrate a bullying campaign, but you know who might? Publicly taking issue with a criticism of a body type is not absurd. In criticism of a character I didn’t like in the last of us..the actress screen shotted it and posted it for her fans to BULLY me over an opinion on a FICTIONAL CHARACTER. I don’t need to be muscly.

[The Last of Us ](https://metro.co.uk/tag/last-of-us/)star Melanie Lynskey has come to her defence after a former America’s Next Top Model winner body-shamed her.

'The Last of Us's Melanie Lynskey had her best performance alongside Kate Winslet in Peter Jackson's 1994 film 'Heavenly Creatures.'

Pauline weeps, her cataclysmic screams in the moment intercut with devastating sobbing in the girls' fantasy world as the two are forcibly separated. When Juliet's parents plan to take their daughter away for the betterment of her health, Pauline focuses all of her miserable ire upon her mother, Honora (Sarah Peirse). Indeed, someone who understands Pauline's passions and the depth of her emotional wounds, someone who actively listens and respects and reciprocates her affection, is energizing. From her distressed expressions when her parents embarrass her to her frenzied outbursts and rumpled, curly hair, Pauline is the definition of a sullen teenage girl as well as a blood-red warning sign. She holds her head high and openly defies her teachers, yelling in defense of Juliet and smirking wide when Juliet causes her own brand of trouble. During the mandatory school choir, she refuses to sing along to the hymn and openly grimaces when her disobedience catches the eye of a Draconian teacher. Later, it's morphed into adoration as she leans into Juliet's side, face turned into her neck and eyes lifting to her face. She's a hair's breadth away from an open wound; all that keeps her pain inside is the lightest of scabs. Watching Heavenly Creatures in retrospect is briefly amusing for the opening credits: a double whammy in "introducing Kate Winslet" and "introducing Melanie Lynskey." An actor's purpose is to convey foreign emotions, of course, but Pauline feels like a personal reflection. Any out-of-place girl who's endured the complicated social dynamics of high school can recognize and instinctively relate to Pauline.

It looked awful, and it was scary. It was one of the most overwhelming, incredible things I’ve ever experienced. I assume that was a real person jumping on you. I wanted her to carry herself in a very unassuming way and for her voice to be kind of small. It was a child — like, an acrobat, an actual little girl. I think she had a colder view of the world. I was interested in the idea of this very ordinary person discovering her own heartlessness and the fact that she could do pretty terrible things and not really think about them afterward. On one hand, he kept her safe through a chaotic childhood and the end of the world. The Last of Us is Calgary in the winter. He called me and said, “I’m going to ask you to play a war criminal.” [Laughs.] He said, “Imagine if you were Jesus’ sister, and your brother was this wonderful person whom everybody adored and respected. I knew about the game because it’s my husband’s favorite game of all time.

But sweet is the last word you’d use to describe her role as Kathleen on The Last of Us.
