Shizuka Kudo, Dubbed “Japan’s Most Disliked Actress,” Strikes Back at Ageist Critiques

Ever since her marriage to Takuya Kimura, Shizuka Kudo has frequently found herself labeled as one of Japan’s most disliked actresses. In recent years, not only her popularity but also her appearance has come under harsh scrutiny, with some critics unfavorably comparing her maintenance regimen to that of her ever-youthful husband.

A Defiant Response on Social Media

On August 2, Kudo took to Instagram to share a video of herself exercising in a sleeveless tank top, which showcased her slender arms.

This post drew mixed reactions, with some netizens commenting that she looked too thin and suggesting she gain weight or undergo health checks. Responding via her Instagram Stories, Kudo retorted, “Moving your body is good! Please stop the attacks on my appearance, and let’s have fun together!”

Her comeback has sparked further conversation, with supporters decrying the harshness of the criticism, while others noted that female celebrities face impossible standards, being criticized regardless of their weight.
