"Would this performance feel internally like I was going to die? Yes. But my desire to win, my desire to be somebody, is so strong that it compels me to do the hardest thing possible: to perform in public."

-Rebel Wilson, Rebel Rising

"People would come up to me on the street and say, 'I just want to thank you for being so brave!' Why am I so fucking brave? I'm not going off to fight in a war! I'm not running into a burning building to save kittens! What are people going on about? I'm brave because I'm just ME?? Because I dare to exist as a plus-size woman in Hollywood?...They wanted me to represent for women of a different body type, and the way they kept going on about being 'brave' made me wonder—gosh, how many negative comments were these women getting about their bodies in their daily life? What was the negative commentary running in their own minds?"
