With regular posts of pasta, wine, lingerie, it's clear that Caroline has been successful in using her platform to be true to herself: 'I always say you could put a camera on me from the minute I wake up in the morning to the minute I pass out. For better or for worse a lot of people who follow me felt comfort in that.' So at that point I just decided to embrace myself completely as I was and that’s when I really became a woman. 'However, I know what it can feel like to not feel comfortable in your own skin. 'In my early 20s I felt really uncomfortable with my big bust yes of course I made it my thing and I grew into it and now I wouldn’t change the way I was created,' the honest star reveals. Naked ambition: A lot of Caroline's posts carry provocative tones but the star says it's important to open up the conversation on sex and abolish the taboo surrounding intimacy How does she hope that a body-positive outlook can encourage and empower women? 'I guess it would start with the tits. Which I think very few people do on the Internet these days but she would be able to weed those out that’s the kind of woman she was,' she adds.Ĭaroline herself has a big social media following with nearly 400,000 Instagram fans who love her posts for showing that self-love and nudity can go hand in hand. 'I think she would champion those who show their true colors and their vulnerabilities.

I had moved to Miami for him and we were in a very bad place. Once the cover, which was painted by Pascal Möhlmann who says he drew inspiration from noble women in Renaissance paintings, had been censored Caroline was able to release the album that she had self-funded and spent two years writing, much to the delight of her fans who have been following her journey of personal pain that inspired the music: 'I wrote this album while my last relationship was failing. And a painting of a pinched nipple shocks and offends!?' the singer adds. There are Instagram accounts and websites that don’t get taken down that are anti Semitic which place Jewish names in parentheses to lessen their value. There are masterpieces, works of art hanging in museums that show painted nipples.
