Sam Smith continued his journey of body positivity this week by having what he dubbed a “Naked Day.”
The singer posted a shirtless selfie on Instagram and explained, “For my entire life I have always hated being naked."
He continued, "Today I decided to have a naked day and spend the day in my room and watch TV and read and eat what I want and just celebrate this bod.”
Sam said the experience was “so empowering and wonderful and f****** FUN.”

A couple of days before his “naked day,” Smith posted another shirtless selfie, even though he wasn’t feeling his best that day.
“Feeling bloated and gross after my flight so thought I’d post a mirror selfie of my sexy bloated boobies coz we are friends. Finally,” he wrote.

"I know this sounds dramatic but this interview completely changed my life," he wrote. "Being able to talk so openly about my body issues and feeling so safe whilst doing it was truly liberating. I am so thankful to Jameela and her team for this opportunity and being so respectful and kind to me. It took a lot for me to do this and I was so nervous, so please be kind haha. I really hope this can make someone else who feels like me, a little less lonely and a little less alien."
