Nia Jax recently spoke with Today Style (transcript via Wrestling Inc)about various topics. Here are the highlights.
Embracing her Curves:
“I’m inspired to post a lot of positive messages on my social mediabecause growing up I felt as though I needed somebody that looked like me in the limelight, or in entertainment to promote being different, and promote accepting your differences.”
Feedback to a Photo She Posted of Herself in a Bathing Suit:
“I remember I posted a picture of me in a bathing suit, and that was something that I was very nervous about,” Jax said. “I was having a lot of issues with just a lot of social media trolls, people would try to make fun of my size and my weight to the WWE and what not. I just decided to go out there and post a picture of me in a bathing suit. I said, ‘You know what? This is my body. I’m going to embrace it, and I’m going to show the world’. So I posted it on Instagram not thinking it would be that big of a deal, and I got such great feedback, and my fans, my close friends and family telling me how inspiring I was to them, and that they got more confidence in the fact that I went and showed basically one of my most vulnerable parts to the world.”
