The 18-year-old daughter of Travis Barker revealed recently on TikTok that she’s taking weight loss medication because she thinks she looks “so fat” and “so ugly” in photographs. Mainly… because that’s what some really crappy commenters have told her.

It was really heartbreaking to hear she’d let the negativity in like that. And also that she’d gone to such extreme — and potentially unhealthy — measures.

But in a new series of posts on her Instagram it seems she may be getting over it. First she posted a comment on her Stories about fighting the “insecurity” others have put into her:

“Just kidding I can’t let the hate win & the insecurity’s in other individuals dim my light, love you guys still “

She followed that with a brand new carousel of bikini pics! And this time she talked about how great she was looking, quoting Gunna‘s Clear My Rain:

“ah baby slim in the waist, body right she a 10 in the face.”

Good for her! We’re so happy she’s feeling less insecure!

What do YOU think of Alabama’s latest posts??

And the reasoning behind her decision, of feeling “tired of being fat and photographing like a damn ogre,” broke our hearts even more. No 18-year-old should ever feel like that! Nobody PERIODT should ever feel like that! Ugh.

But now, there are even more new concerns with this drug cocktail on top of the mental health worries we have for Alabama’s body image as a young woman in this cruel age of social media.

While the rest of Hollywood seems to all be taking drugs like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy, experts are now counseling that somebody as young as Alabama may be playing with fire regarding the use of the medicine semaglutide, which helps with long-term weight management.

On Thursday, the US Sun spoke to nutritionist Rania Batayneh, and she sounded VERY skeptical about the benefits of weight loss drugs for teenagers. She began by noting that Alabama’s video reveal of her weight loss drug use appeared to be “extreme,” and then went on to add:

“This looked messy and extreme. Alabama is 18 and not clinically overweight, so would not typically have access to a weight loss drug prescription.”

The health expert then went on to note that the appetite suppressant effects of weight loss drugs could leave Alabama eating too few calories, “which is not a normal, healthy, or enjoyable life for any teenager.” Batayneh continued:

“Weight loss medications could set teenagers up for failure long-term. This is in terms of weight maintenance, long-term health, and mental health issues. Drugs like Ozempic must not become the quick fix in this age group. Alabama and other teenagers who consider using these medications must learn how to take care of themselves properly.”

One of the biggest issues, according to the One One One Diet author, is the risk of metabolic disruption. The worry that these drugs could mess up a teenager’s metabolism for life — in addition to the psychological toll of treating food in such a manner — could be very bad:

“This is about metabolic disruption in that young age group. This will impact natural metabolic processes and appetite regulation simply because teenagers burn more naturally. When you add an appetite suppressant and restrict caloric intake, the metabolism will take a hit because of the young age. There are also psychological impacts when a teenager is not eating healthily. They could develop a bad relationship with food and have adverse effects when they decide to eat.”

Wow.

Like we said up top, it sure seems like tons of celebs have turned to these drugs — and some of them with very concerning side effects of their own. But for teens? It’s going too far. Batayneh said:

“We cannot imagine what will happen to teenagers who resort to these drugs. What will we say when they become so thin from using them?”

And she wisely concluded:

“The solution is not a weight loss injection, and this must not be the next logical step. If it is not for obesity or Type 2 diabetes, these may be visual beauty and cosmetic-inspired decisions versus health-informed decisions. Teenagers need not to be focusing on the numbers on the scales or how they look. This mindset is not conducive to a healthy teenage lifestyle.”

No kidding. Say it louder for the people in the back… PLEASE!!!

This. Is. So. Sad. Sending a big hug to Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler‘s daughter, Alabama Barker.

The post Travis Barker’s Daughter: “I’m Tired Of Being Fat And Photographing Like A Damn Ogre.” appeared first on Perez Hilton.

In a recent makeup video on TikTok, the 18-year-old daughter of Travis Barker revealed she’s taking weight loss medication! WHAT?! THIS GIRL????

Yes, despite posting tons of photos her fellow teens are drooling over — getting her over 2 million followers on Instagram — she’s not comfortable with how she looks. Why? Because she received a bunch of messages online calling her “fat” and “ugly.” Alabama said:

“I have, like, this thing where I photograph so ugly, and people are like, ‘Oh, my God — you’re so fat, and you’re so ugly.’”

Oh no!!!

In her eyes, she sadly agrees with what the haters are saying. Now, she admits she’s using weight loss drugs to try to shed some pounds, despite being just 18 and totally healthy. The teen continued:

“And it’s, like, I see what you guys are seeing, but just, like, meet me in person. I feel like I don’t look like that. But I’m on weight-loss medication because I’m tired of being fat and photographing like a damn ogre.”

This is so sad. She does not need weight loss drugs at all. And she definitely does not photograph like an “ogre”! We hate so much that Alabama thinks of herself this way because she’s letting the bullying comments of internet weirdos get to her. Watch the video (below):

Alabama doesn’t name which drug she’s on. However, her mom, Shanna Moakler, shared last month how she used the Type 2 diabetes medication Mounjaro to help her lose weight after she got to a “very dark place” and ate “the pain away” when both her parents died in 2023. Could it be that same one? Hmm.

Our hearts break for Alabama. We hope she realizes she is amazing just the way she is and doesn’t need to change her appearance — especially just because of some hate comments online. And certainly not at 18 when she isn’t even done growing into her look yet! Tons of people naturally shed that last bit of what’s called “baby fat” as they become adults in their early 20s! Why would some doctor not caution her to wait until that happens before prescribing medication with potentially dangerous side effects?

The 18-year-old took to Instagram Stories on Monday to post a snapshot of her stepmomma, Kourtney Kardashian, and her dad, Travis Barker, sitting side-by-side on a private jet. Oh, and did we mention Kourt was holding Rocky in her arms??

The Blink-182 drummer just looked straight at the camera while holding his phone. Meanwhile, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum leaned in close to her husband and pursed her lips to the camera — while holding their 7-month-old son! Aww! You don’t see the little guy’s face as he stares out the window with his face out of the frame. But it’s still such an adorable family photo! She captioned the post:

“My favorite people.”

The post Alabama Barker Shares Rare Pic Of Baby Brother Rocky In Kourtney Kardashian's Arms! appeared first on Perez Hilton.

As we’ve been covering, the 49-year-old actress-slash-model has been speaking out to People in a series of interviews released on Tuesday. Shanna has already gotten real about eating her feelings while trying to cope with the deaths of her parents. And she’s also gotten back to s**t talking the KarJenner fam — something she does a lot. But now, she’s claiming she doesn’t even know Kourtney personally. At all!

Speaking about her adult children Alabama and Landon Barker, who she shares with ex Travis, and Atiana De La Hoya, who she shares with ex Oscar De La Hoya, Shanna revealed they are huge fans of the adorable baby Rocky Thirteen Barker born months ago to the Poosh founder. Moakler said:

“They love the baby. They said that he’s beautiful, and yeah, they’re all happy. They’re good. So, that’s all I care about.”

Great! But then here’s the kicker: Moakler added that she personally has “never even met” Kourtney. Even though Alabama and Landon have lived with Kourt and Travis, and are REALLY close to the Lemme founder and her famous fam, Shanna hasn’t gotten around to meeting Kourtney in person!! Seriously! And it doesn’t sound like she wants to meet up, either. Moakler said:

“I think people think I was angry [at the Kardashians]. But I’m not angry. It wasn’t anger. I think I get maybe frustrated, but I’m also from the East Coast and I swear a lot and I can be very direct sometimes. And I think some people take that as anger where I’m just very real where I’m like, ‘f**k the family.’ I don’t have to f**king like the family. And it’s like, there’s people that don’t like it.”

OK then…

The issue of Alabama and Landon choosing to live with Travis (and Kourtney) has stuck in Shanna’s craw, though. She explained how it irks her that fans assume she “became a deadbeat mom” and “wasn’t in my children’s lives” after Alabama and Landon showed up so frequently around Kourt. Plus, it didn’t help that Alabama pretty much directly said as much, too! Nevertheless, Shanna explained:

“People are like, ‘Why do your kids live with Travis?’ So I would gladly set the record straight. I have never not been involved in my children’s lives. I’ve always had shared custody.”

And she went on:

“My children are now 18, 20, and 25 at this point. So, my children are grown. I’m basically an empty nester at this point. They are living their lives.”

Well, that’s a good point. In the end, after asserting that she seems like a “deadbeat mom” because Alabama and Landon chose to do COVID social distancing at Travis’ place and that’s where all the drama stems from, she slammed fans for demeaning her as a mother. She called it “devastating” and “untrue,” before adding:

“I think the most disgusting thing you can do to a woman is to demean her as a mother. No one can tell me how to speak about it because I’m the one that’s getting bullied … about not being a [good] mother. I’m there for my children every day.”

Hmmm…

Something tells us Alabama might beg to differ, at least! What do U make of Shanna’s assertion that she’s never met Kourtney, though?? Surprised?! Sound OFF in the comments (below)…

The former Miss USA is once again sounding off on the famous family — who are, unfortunately for her, kinda sorta part of her family now! During an interview with People published on Tuesday, she told the outlet:

“[I] don’t have to like the f**king Kardashians, and I’m honestly sick of talking about them.”

Yet she still continues to do so…

Since her ex-husband Travis Barker married Kourtney Kardashian, the model has made it clear how much she dislikes the first family of reality TV. From accusing Kourt and Trav of using cash to bribe her kids Landon, 20, and Alabama, 18, to hate her, to claiming she caught Travis and Kim making plans to have sex… And SO much more. She just can’t seem to STOP talking about them! Ha!

The 49-year-old added:

“As I stand here today, as a mature woman who’s gone through all that … I do not give a f**k what anyone thinks of me anymore. I’m proud of who I am.”

She continued:

“I’m more than just the ex-wife of famous men. I was Miss USA at 19. I’m smart. Every part I’ve ever got in any movie, or every show I hosted or auditioned for, I worked my f**king ass off to get.”

In addition to her two kids with Travis, she also shares 25-year-old Atiana with ex-fiancé Oscar de la Hoya. But don’t think she and her exes team up for co-parenting… At least not her and the Blink-182 drummer:

“I don’t have a relationship with Travis, but I think that’s OK. I don’t feel like it’ll be like that forever, but I feel like right now — I think that’s where we are at in our evolution, and maybe in the future, it’ll change.”

Well, after everything she’s said about him and his wife’s family, it might be hard to get back on friendly terms! But as for now, she doesn’t “care about her exes” … At least while she navigates her parents’ deaths.

Oof.

Yeah, Shanna is going through some stuff. But she has to understand, the reason everyone expects her to s**t-talk the Kardashians instead of talking about her own accomplishments is, well… it’s what she’s been doing. It’s a hole she dug for herself, and it’ll be up to her to get out by doing cool things and no longer mentioning them!

The Poosh founder celebrated on Sunday by taking to Instagram to share a carousel of pics of hubby Travis Barker and their son Rocky. From cuddled-up bed snaps, to beachy getaways, the mother of four shared adorable glimpses at the Blink-182 drummer and their boy. She wrote:

“Happy Father’s Day @travisbarker !! Beyond grateful for the Dad that you are to our baby boy, and all of our kids. You keep us safe and protected and take care of us. Having a family with you is heaven. Happy to celebrate you!”

He responded:

“Our life is heaven, I love you”

So sweet! But she noticeably didn’t make ANY mention of her OTHER baby daddy, Scott Disick! You know, the guy she was with for YEARS and shares three kids with??

And on that note, neither Mason nor Penelope, nor any of Travis’ kids including Landon, Alabama, and Atiana, were in any of the pics! Reign managed to make it into one, but the exclusion definitely does not sit well with fans. In the comments, followers wrote things like:

“What about Scott?? lol he did father your other 3 children.. don’t forget about the real one ma’am”

“Funny she could coparent with Scott when he had a gf and she was single but now that she has someone she can’t coparent?”

“‘Wait! What Scott is the father to your oldest children? He’s a good dad too be nice to acknowledge that also”

“Uh where’s the shoutout to the father of 75% of ur kids??”

“notice how none of the pictures are with him and her other kids”

“Way to exclude his 3 other children.”

Yikes!

There were people who defended her, though:

“‘what about scott’ oh sorry we all must’ve missed the part where scott posts her for mother’s day”

“She knows Scott is a good father as well, but she’s not obligated to post about him, everyone leave it alone”

“My Gosh I see so many of you asking about Scott in the post like she has to acknowledge him at all specially on a post dedicated to her actual husband the one who did actually marry her and seems to make her HAPPY which let me just remind y’all how much Scott humiliated her through the years they were together so No she doesn’t need to talk/post about him if she doesn’t feel like it”

The 48-year-old musician shared multiple pictures on Instagram Friday, including a snapshot of his newest tattoo! What did he get this time? It appears he got a design dedicated to his family! In a black-and-white photo, Travis showed off the word “FAMILY” etched down the side of his forearm in large gothic letters, which covers several other tattoos he already has. Considering the Blink-182 drummer has tatts covering his entire body, it’s no wonder his latest piece was placed on top of his old ones! He’s most likely run out of real estate at this point! LOLz!

The now 18-year-old daughter of Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler posted several racy new pictures of herself to Instagram over the weekend. While most of her followers approved, the images had one commenter accusing her of going under the knife — to change her appearance completely!

In the snapshots, Alabama sported a brown lace-up miniskirt and matching jacket over a black bikini. All that covers less than it sounds like tbh… Check it out (below):

Wow! After dropping the slideshow, she received thousands of comments — but not all of them were positive! One person claimed she got “plastic surgery on everything” to achieve her look! Ouch!

When Alabama eventually caught wind of the hater’s comment, she clapped back on Monday, writing:

“hey let’s stop being delusional ”

Damn! This isn’t the first time Alabama addressed whether she’s had any cosmetic procedures done. Back in February, she faced a similar accusation. Someone posted in the comments of another bikini picture of herself that the teen “has done alot [sic] of cosmetic surgery @ a very young age” and hopes she “doesn’t over do it” since “she looks good now.”

While Alabama appreciated the compliment, she made it clear the only work she had done was on her lips. Other than that? Everything else is “natural!” She said:

“I really appreciate the love! I’m natural, besides my lips, accept the fact I’m naturally beautiful.”

Apparently, the most recent plastic surgery accuser did not get this memo from Alabama! Reactions to her latest comment, Perezcious readers? Let us know below!
