Kate Beckinsale Reacts to 'Insidious Bullying' of Her Appearance and Plastic Surgery Accusations

The actress pleaded with social media users to stop harassing her over her appearance.

Sharing a video of herself from early on in her career, the British-born starlet highlighted how fans and followers have used photos and clips of her from decades ago to create negativity and accuse her of using Botox and fillers, which she says she doesn't "actually do." The video posted by Beckinsale shows her full-faced with thin eyebrows in her youth -- which she addresses by detailing the differences between her life then and now -- and explaining that while some have lobbed criticisms over her look, she is grateful for the opportunity to get older after growing up with a crippling fear of death. Beckinsale continued, "The fact that one of the major things I am bullied about is an assumption that I can't handle the idea of getting older is so deeply ironic when my all consuming terror was that I never thought I'd even see the end of my 20s."
