Taylor Lautner Addresses Unwarranted Criticism Regarding His Aging
Taylor Lautner Responds to Unkind Remarks About His Appearance
Actor Taylor Lautner, widely known for his role in “Twilight,” recently addressed criticism regarding his aging in a candid video he posted on Monday. Alongside his wife, Taylor Dome Lautner, he had made an appearance in New York, which was later shared on social media, leading to hurtful comments about his looks.
In the video, Taylor shared his feelings after coming back from a run, where he had been focusing on his physical and mental well-being. “I felt compelled to share something with you because when I got back from that run, I hopped on Instagram,” he explained.
He bravely highlighted some of the negative comments that targeted his appearance, acknowledging that in the past, such remarks would have deeply affected him. “If this was 10 years ago, five years ago, maybe even two, three years ago, that really would have got under my skin,” he admitted. “It would have caused me to want to just go in a hole and not go outside.”
However, Lautner has learned a valuable life lesson over time, which he shared with his followers: “You find value where you put it.” Emphasizing the importance of self-worth and self-acceptance, he stressed that placing one’s value in the opinions of others can lead to unhappiness and insecurity. Instead, he encouraged people to prioritize knowing themselves, what matters to them, and the things they love. By doing so, external judgments lose their power to affect their well-being.
For the record, Taylor Lautner is currently 31 years old, and he remains focused on cherishing his true self, disregarding unwarranted criticism about his appearance.
