Amber Riley is singin' a serious tune against body shaming and she wants you to listen.
After having dental surgery this past weekend, the former Glee star decided to boldly address her weight and her body shamers while on painkillers.

In the video, Riley questioned, "Why does me being fat offend so many people? Is it because I'm confident, and I'm fly and I'm sexy? Do my thighs, offend? Does my stomach, offend? Does my big juicy ass, offend? Why? Why?"
She explained that while there are some things her, "sober mind keeps her from sharing," she has a great deal she wants to address in terms of body shaming.
"Let my big ass live!" Riley exclaimed. "I let y'all live! I love all colors, shapes and sizes. So, just so you know, when you come on here, and you call me fat, it's not an insult, dummy."
The empowered actress ended her video with the following legendary words: "My ass is fat. And the fellas love it. And so do I. So eat it."
You go, girl. Tell 'em what's up.
Riley's fans praised her on Instagram and Twitter for her realness and willingness to speak openly and honestly about body shaming, including her friend and former Glee co-star Naya Rivera.
Rivera tweeted a message of support to her friend, and even called to check on Riley after she saw the videos.
