The brunette bombshell posed in satin bras for the new issue of Bustle magazine, which was released on Thursday.
But the actress told the publication that she does not like being asked about her changing figure.
'It’s hard because my whole family fluctuates in weight,' began the star who won't be in season three of Euphoria, but said she will watch it.
'I started modeling at 16, and I’ve looked different every year for over a decade. It’s very trendy right now to talk about women’s bodies, which is exactly why I personally don’t talk about it,' said the actress who can be seen in two new movies this week: Faces of Death and Mile End Kicks.
'There is so much discourse around what I look like — and what other women look like — all the time. As women, we are in a losing game.'

She added, 'If we’re too small or too big, we lose. We are human beings who fluctuate. I gain weight, I lose weight; that’s just my life. I didn’t realize people would be so hyper-fixated on it.'
And she said she has been asked about her weight since she was a young teenager. 'People talk about weight gain from my Tumblr days — I was 14 years old in my mother’s room!' she said.
'Of course I’m going to look different. Back then, I spoke a lot about body positivity because I had to. People asked me about my activism when I was just a kid.'
She added she was a neophyte at the time. 'I didn’t even know what activism meant. I’d put on a bikini for a campaign, everyone would get mad, and suddenly I was an activist. I’m 17 years old thinking, "Sure, I’ll be an activist if that’s what you want."
'But I don’t think that’s what true activism is. Real activism is dedicating your life to a cause. I just believe people should be reflected in the media as they are. My career continues to do that.'
And when she started getting compliments on her weight loss, she liked it, but felt it was a 'trap.'
She shared, 'That’s why unhealthy eating patterns continue — you want people to think you look good. It’s funny how people never say “you look great” when someone gains weight. I honestly believe many people would look great if they gained some weight!

'It’s hard because my whole family fluctuates in weight,' began the star who won't be in season three of Euphoria, but said she will watch it
Barbie starred on the first two seasons of the hit HBO show before she left in 2022, explaining later that she 'wanted to be able to not be the fat best friend'; pictured on the show in 2019
'But the comments are constant. I could be in character as someone else or just being myself, and the focus is always on my body. It feels like my cross to bear.'
She then said that when she feels overwhelmed, she hides.
'My response to stress is to stay home. I will hermit, and that’s OK. I live my life, I just don’t do flashy things. I’ll be at the Renaissance Faire, though — I go every year. I do a little skirt and a corset and sit at the joust. I love wholesome fun because I grew up too fast,' noted the TV star.

She also worries about how fans can sometimes force actresses to minimize their natural charisma.
'Look at Jennifer Lawrence — she had an incredible personality and was funny and goofy, and people were really hard on her for it,' noted Ferreira.

Ferreira walked the runway for Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2025
'Women are often told to be smaller in this job. I try to be myself, even if people are like, “What is this b**ch on?” I’m not anything — maybe just a Celsius,' she admitted.
'I’m an expressive theater kid. I try to show my personality in contained spots, like on podcasts with people I actually like.'
As far as fame, she said it is a shock to her.
'I grew up in a non-Hollywood environment, and I’m Brazilian, so I’m a big fan of everything. I grew up as a fan of film, TV, and pop stars. It’s just so different when you’re on the other side,' she shared.
'You get to meet people that you have projected an image of for so long, and then you don’t know who they really are until you meet them. I actually try to avoid meeting people that I love.'
When it comes to her love life she said she has never dated an actor.
'I only know how to date normal-ish people. To impress me, you need a real personality and real life. I grew up in a different place than a lot of people in Hollywood. I’m an immigrant kid from New York who watched people hustle their way out of their situations. I don’t search for the next “it” person to date. And I hate PR relationships — I could never do that. I want to be like Tilda Swinton,' said the star.
She shared, 'Back then, I spoke a lot about body positivity because I had to. People asked me about my activism when I was just a kid'
She added she was a neophyte at the time. 'I didn’t even know what activism meant. I’d put on a bikini for a campaign, everyone would get mad, and suddenly I was an activist. I’m 17 years old thinking, "Sure, I’ll be an activist if that’s what you want"'
Ferreira quit her breakout role as teenage cam-girl Kat in the drug-fueled drama in 2022 after two successful seasons
Seen with Zendaya (2-L, pictured in 2022), Jacob Elordi and Sydney Sweeney (R) on Euphoria
The 29-year-old starred on the first two seasons of the hit show before she left in 2022, explaining later that she 'wanted to be able to not be the fat best friend.'
She told the magazine that she does not .
'I haven’t watched it yet, but I am going to see it. I want to see where the characters go and I love the girls. I don't think [any of the actors know] what’s going on — I think they only get their specific sides of the script.'
Now she has two new films coming out.
'We shot Faces of Death years ago and Mile End Kicks about a year and a half ago. The fact that they are out the same week is really funny. I’m trying to juggle both, but they are so different, I don’t get confused,' said Ferreira.
