Fat Shaming Chloe Grace Moretz

[Variety] Like most young women in Hollywood, Chloe Grace Moretz has experienced her fair share of sexism. Moretz’s brothers were there for her during one of her toughest times as a young actress — she was fat-shamed on the set of one of her movies by a male co-star.

“This guy that was my love interest was like, ‘I’d never date you in real life,’ and I was like, ‘What?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, you’re too big for me’ — as in my size,” says Moretz. “It was one of the only actors that ever made me cry on set.” She opts not to reveal her co-star’s identity, only to say she was 15 at the time and he was in his mid-20s.

After she left set that day, she collapsed into tears. “It just makes you realize that there are some really bad people out there, and for some reason, he felt the need to say that to me.”

  1. Movie: Movie 43

    Actor: Jimmy Bennett

    [Optional] Describe her male costar in one word. Keep it civil. He’s a jerk-face.

  2. Unless we know who the actor is we don’t know if he was fat shaming, he may have been a diminutive little fellow. Her only problem is she doesn’t have a neck, it’s genetic so she should dres and wear her hair to try to appear she has a neck.

  3. Ugh I didn’t want to believe it but I think it’s the only one where the timing/ages work out.

    Movie: Kick-Ass 2

    Actor: Aaron Taylor-Johnson

    [Optional] Since it has to be civil…insensitive.

    • Yep! She would have been about 15 at the time and he was in his early 20’s. Played her love interest.

      He is NO prize and not easy on the eyes so he has NO room to talk about not being real life dating material.

  11. Aaron Taylor-Johnson in Kick Ass

    Disgraceful, whoever it was, considering she was a child.

  13. Perhaps Aaron Taylor-Johnson in KickAss 2? I think he’s about 7 or 8 years older than her.

    One word? Turd. (Sorry!)

  16. Based strictly on timeline, I’m guessing the actor is Christopher Mintz-Plasse and the movie is Kick-Ass 2, filmed when she was 15 and he was 23.
    What a d-bag.

  19. Awful no matter who it was but all I hear is “like, like, like”. One of the most misused words in the current American lexicon. This can make even the brightest people sound like total idiots.

  21. kick ass 2

    aaron taylor johnston he was 22 she was 15 only 2 other movies fit the time span, the guy was only 18 in Carrie so nada to that one

    if she is misremembering and was 16 at the time then a couple of other movies come into play

  22. The only movie that seems to (loosely) fit the time frame is If I Stay from 2014. Her boyfriend in the film was played by Jamie Blackley, who is 6 years older than her. That would make him about 21, which isn’t “mid-20s” but may be close enough for her to say that (and she might have been quoting him around when the film was released).

  23. The only Chloe released in 2012 was Dark Shadows which she had no love interest. Therefore it had to be a movie released in 2013.

    That narrows it down to three movies, as the 4th movie was a documentary. So either:

    Movie 43
    Kick Arse 2
    Carrie

    Ahhh don’t be Ansel Elgort….

  26. Actor: Aaron Taylor-Johnson
    Movie: Kickass 2

    What type of 20-something tells bodyshames a 15yo??

  28. Good lord, this has to be the narcissistic Jamie Blackley, her co-star in “If I Stay”. He summed it up best himself, in an interview regarding his character in the film— “He’s a nice guy, a romantic guy – he’s nothing like me.”

    At least he admits it. Bravo for self awareness.

    Age timeline matches up perfectly with filming dates.

  31. Movie: Kick Ass 2

    Actor: Aaron Taylor-Johnson

    [Optional] Describe her male costar in one word. Keep it civil. What a jerk! Can’t say anything else or it’ll be uncivil…

  34. Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Kick-Ass 2. Shame on him. I used to like him in Godzilla, and Avengers, but if he did this to a fifteen year old, he’s a creep.

  36. I’m gonna take a stab in the dark and say Ansel Elgort from Carrie. Guys an arrogant D-Bag so it wouldn’t surprise me if he said that.

  37. I have no idea but I think it may be Jamie Blackley in the film If I stay (released 2014) which may have been filmed when Chloe was about 15 (Born Feb 97) and he was about 22 (Born July 1991).

  39. Errr… since when was CGM fat? She’s * gorgeous.

    Can only be Aaron T-J from Kick-Ass 2.

  41. Carrie?
    Whover played her love interest

    It came out in 2013 so was probably filmed in 2012 when she was 15.

    He’s an *, sure she’s not the tiniest thing but just don’t date her then – why tell her?

  42. For me this is a truly a guess since I’ve never seen a few of her films, although, I respect her work especially considering how young she still is (she is around my daughter’s age).

    Movie: Kick-Ass 2 (released in 2013)?
    Actor: Aaron Taylor Johnson or Christopher Mintz-Plasse?

    Note: Even though they were in the 1st movies too according to IMDB (checked since I didn’t see them) maybe they didn’t discuss those type of things until working on the 2nd one?

    Optional:…

    • …Optional: Ignorant/Immature
      I’ve never been fat-shamed but I had a similar event about another body feature that was a temporary situation given I was still maturing; over time I was able to put it into perspective how uninformed & immature the other party must have been to say what they said to me. In this case, if the male actor was a little bit older at the time I would say he is narcissistic at best; yet if I was the male actor’s mom I would be very upset at my son’s behavior at any…

  43. Chloe Moretz and Aaron Johnson in Kick ass 2?
    Read about her words before and watched this film yesterday. She looks very good in it, definitely not “big”!
    He is not only rude but stupid and shallow!

  46. Kick Ass 2
    Aaron Taylor Johnson
    One Word – Typical
    She would have been 14 going on 15 when the movie was released. Aaron Taylor Johnson was born in 1990 and would have been 7 years older than Chloe, which would have made him 22/23.

  47. Movie: Kick Ass 2
    Actor: Augustus Prew, age 25 at the time of filming.

    Optional: Augustus-Who?

  48. It must be the equalizer? She played a hooker and wore a very short skirt. No idea the actor.

  49. It could be Aaron Taylor Johnson but whoever it is, what a creep!!

    Firstly, Why the hell would you deem it necessary and appropriate to comment on the body shape/type of anyone?

    Secondly, I know he played her love interest in the film but the fact she was 15 when this happened and he was in his Mid 20’s doesn’t set well with me at all.

  50. Movie: Carrie
    Actor: Ansel Elgort

    I don’t believe this was probably anything more than a joke. She’s a horrible attention seeker!!
