Another added, “If you were really upset about Rachel McAdams showing off her armpit hair in her latest photo shoot, you should crawl back under the rock cold you came from.”
“I have two kids, this is my body, and I think it’s so important to give back to the world,” Rachel told Bustle. “It’s all right to look your best, work out, and be healthy, but that varies from person to person.”

“I have two kids, this is my body, and I think it’s very important to give back to the world,” Rachel, who shares a five-year-old son and two-year-old daughter with partner Jamie Linden, told the outlet.
“It’s all right to look your best, work on it, and be healthy, but that varies from person to person.”
