Alicia Silverstone reacted to a TikTok that re-visited the body-shaming she incurred around the time she was filming 1997's Batman & Robin.
The 45-year-old actress dueted a video by user @foreversymone who demanded 'justice for Batgirl' while detailing a particularly cruel article written about her that put her weight at forefront.
The impassioned video drew agreeing nods from the Clueless star who had been open about how being dubbed 'Fatgirl' had nearly turned her off acting entirely.

'I want justice for Alicia Silverstone. Y'all had her f***ed up,' the user began.
From there she pulled up a print article from Entertainment Weekly titled 'A Weighty issue,' and pointed out how it had compared her to Babe The Pig 'all for having a full-figured face.'
'They were obsessed with her weight, all she did was breathe!' the fan said prompting an 'I love you' from Alicia.
