Model and actress Emily Ratajkowski has had quite the last few years. Lately, she’s been traveling the world, promoting her new flick with Zac Efron, We Are Your Friends. And before that, the 24-year-old had a memorable part in Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” music video in 2013, and also played opposite Ben Affleck in the 2014 film Gone Girl. So with all these high-profile roles, it’s not surprising that Ratajkowski is often asked about how she gets, and maintains, that enviable body.
And sure, she’ll tell you how she likes to stay in shape, or her go-to healthy foods. But she won’t share this info because she wants you to try to do the same exact thing, to achieve the exact same results — because the truth is, every person is different.  
“People will say ‘How do I get abs like you?’” she shares. “I don’t know. We’re all different. If my girlfriend did what I did, hiking and yoga for a workout, it would affect her body in a different way. That’s the message that I really want to get out there. I’m trying to counteract that culture. “
"I feel like it’s always about how this girl stays thin, or what one girl is doing to another, and it shouldn’t be that way,” Ratajkowski adds. “Female empowerment is always something that I’ve felt. It’s not about just being a model, it’s about women in general.”
She plans to spread her message further by teaming up with Lena Dunham to contribute to her newsletter “Lenny,” which will offer advice, essays, and product recommendations to millennial women. “I’m really excited about it,” Ratajkowski tells Yahoo Health at an event hosted by Refinery29 for the U.S. launch of Primark.

Ratajkowski was raised to feel confident in her skin from a young age. As a child, she would go to the beach with her mom, who would go topless; around the house, Ratajkowski would often run around naked. “I have a mom who always taught me that I never had to apologize for my body,” she says. “She taught me that it was a cultural issue and not about me.”
That’s not to say, though, that she doesn’t have her insecurities — the star reveals she has things she’s self-conscious about, just like everyone else. "For sure there’s parts of my body I’m insecure about,” Ratajkowski divulges. “I don’t like the space underneath my butt. We all have stuff like that.
