Like many posts with good intentions, Twitter trolls quickly took notice and decided to give their two-cents on Jackson's photo. The reactions ranged from shaming the way she chooses to be body-positive, to slightly more personal attacks.

The majority of comments centered around her use of the word "rolls" in the caption, which some people are having a hard time finding.

Thankfully there are some positive tweets in the flood of negative comments.  This one in particular highlights what others seemed to overlook.

It's not uncommon to develop negative body image issues — even Kim Kardashian recently admitted to having body dysmorphia — and being under the public microscope like Paris Jackson can possibly amplify the "flaws" someone sees in themselves.

As the Twitter user above mentions, it probably doesn't matter whether the "rolls" actually exist or not. Perhaps the word to focus on instead is "comfortable," and that she's attempting to inspire others to feel the same way.
