An influencer has gone viral after branding this time of year as “hot chubby girl summer” and refusing to cover up.

Emily Bispo, 23, who boasts 1.3 million followers on TikTok, has stuck it to the haters who say she should cover up. While lounging on a pool float, her body in full view, words appear on her video reading: “You should probably cover up, that’s not very flattering.”

Turning to the camera and moving down her sunglasses, the influencer replies with a resounding “no.”

Writing in the caption, Bispo explains: “It’s hot chubby girl summer, mind ur business!”

The video has since been viewed over 400k times, with thousands of comments thanking the woman for her act of bravery.

“I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THANK U FOR INSPIRING ME TO LOVE MY BODY,” wrote one fan, to which the influencer replied: “I LOVE YOU.”

Another woman simply wrote: “i’m so gay.”

“It’s actually so flattering and beautiful,” a third said.

Bispo’s TikTok account largely focuses on content linked to mental health and body positivity and recently showed the difference a camera angle and pose can make.

“Same body different pose,” she wrote on the video.

In the first shot, Bispo poses in a way that elongates her body, while in the second snap she relaxes completely. Her body looks starkly different between the two poses, which she hoped would highlight how influencers trick their audiences.

“Ur fave influencers are good at POSING!!!” she wrote in the caption. “Pls remember that not everyone looks like how they do on social media.”

In the comments, one TikTok user revealed: “Are used to be really insecure and then I was confident and now I am insecure again because one little comment can make me go to rock-bottom.”

“Ever say something like that!! People who are secure in themselves and like themselves don’t project. It’s not about u babes! It’s all them!” Bispo replied.
