Cori Broadus has journeyed through a complex relationship with her body image, often struggling to embrace her true self.

At a young age of 6, she was diagnosed with the autoimmune disease lupus, which has influenced her self-perception and confidence over the years. During the premiere of her E! special, Snoop’s Fatherhood: Cori & Wayne’s Story, on December 5, Cori opened up about her feelings of insecurity while trying on wedding dresses. This vulnerable moment highlighted the pressure she feels as Snoop Dogg’s daughter, especially when it comes to public attention.

“I’m really loving the idea of getting married, but being the center of attention is kinda scary,” the 25-year-old shared in a heartfelt confessional, revealing that her choice for baggy clothing stems from her struggle with self-confidence regarding her body. This candid admission resonates with many who face similar challenges in their lives.

Upon donning a stunning, form-fitting white gown designed by celebrity designer Michael Costello, Cori was overwhelmed with emotion and broke down in tears. The moment was significant, illustrating the conflict between her desire for beauty and her discomfort with her appearance.

“It just wasn’t what I really wanted,” she expressed in her confessional, conveying a deep sense of dissatisfaction. Turning to Michael and her bridesmaids, she candidly stated, “I don’t like my body. I hate my body,” which reflects a profound struggle many individuals face regarding body acceptance.

Cori’s best friend, Itali Miller, attempted to uplift her spirits, saying, “I’m being honest: You being a bigger bodied girl, I honestly think that this is really flattering your body.” This supportive comment aimed to encourage Cori, highlighting the importance of positive reinforcement from friends during vulnerable moments.

Despite the encouragement, Cori continued to feel uncomfortable in her own skin, illustrating the ongoing battle with self-image that many can relate to. Her journey serves as a reminder of the importance of self-love and acceptance in the face of societal pressures.
