Scout Willis, daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, walked in New York City topless to protest censorship of female nudity and joined the Free The Nipple movement.
After being repeatedly censored on Instagram, Scout took matters into her own hands to protest their nudity policy, whipping up a Twitter storm of controversy by tweeting photos of herself topless.
Scout’s public feud with Instagram began on May 20, when she posted a photo of a sweatshirt featuring a photo of two topless women on the front. The photo was reported to Instagram and, according to Scout’s Twitter account, she was forced to remove the photo.
In an effort to protect her account, Scout changed her Instagram from public to private, but it only took two days before her account was shut down.
Things could have ended there, but then Instagram erased all of Scout’s photos and she had no backup. She asked Instagram for her photos back via Twitter, but when she got no response, she became frustrated.
On May 26, after being unable to retrieve her deleted Instagram photos, Scout started a new Instagram account “as an experiment.” On her new Instagram profile, Scout, under the name ‘Scout (Areola) Willis,’ vowed to post only tasteful and artistic nudes of women.
It wasn’t long before Scout’s new Instagram account was suspended, and she took to Twitter to express her outrage on Tuesday, May 27. She went on a tweeting spree, pointing out Instagram’s hypocrisy in how they enforce their policies. Not only did Scout point to the double standard that censors the female breast but not the male chest, she also brought attention to photos that show women in lingerie or topless, clearly posing in a seductive way in front of men, which are all still on Instagram. To make her point, Scout pointed specifically to Dan Bilzerian, also known as ‘The Most Interesting Man On Instagram.’ Bilzerian frequently posts photos of himself surrounded by nearly-naked women and has over 2 million followers.
