Rachel McAdams has received a slew of ugly comments from people who called her ‘nasty,’ ‘tasteless,’ and ‘gross’ for not shaving her under arms – after she showed off her hairy armpits during a recent photoshoot for Bustle magazine.

The actress, 44, proudly flaunted her natural beauty during the raw, minimally-edited shoot, while reminding readers that ‘looking your best’ is ‘different for everyone.’

The photoshoot sparked a furious debate on social media about body hair – with some people praising the Mean Girl alum for her confidence and others  branding it as a ‘turn off’ and stating that they will ‘never look at her the same again.’

‘Gross, no thanks,’ one person wrote on Twitter, while another simply said, ‘Ew.’

‘Oh no… Someone has hair, where hair f**king grows – the horror,’ said another sarcastically.

‘If you’re genuinely pissed off about Rachel McAdams showing her armpit hair in her most recent shoot, you should crawl back under the cold rock from which you came from,’ added someone else.

'I've had two children, this is my body, and I think that's so important to reflect back to the world,' Rachel told Bustle. 'It’s OK to look your best and work at it and be healthy, but that’s different for everyone'

A different tweet read, ‘Powerful. Amazing. Stunning. Brave.’ 

In one photo from the shoot, Rachel could be seen wearing a black corset-like tank top with similar colored pants and strappy heels.

In the picture, she sprawled across a couch with her arms spread open, leaving her hairy armpits on full display.

Another image featured her standing in a white, floor-length gown with a slit near her chest area. The sleeveless dress also showcased her unshaven under arms. 

‘I’ve had two children, this is my body, and I think that’s so important to reflect back to the world,’ Rachel, who shares a five-year-old son and two-year-old daughter with her partner Jamie Linden, told the outlet.

‘It’s OK to look your best and work at it and be healthy, but that’s different for everyone.’
