Jenna Munger, 19, is best known at her North Carolina church for her singing voice. But the teen says a woman followed her into the bathroom and body-shamed her during Sunday service, telling her she was "too fat" to wear shorts. Now she's using the painful incident to urge others to love themselves. "It's hard to sit there and say, 'Do I love what I look like? Do I love the clothes I wear?'" Munger told InsideEdition.com. "It's hard to find that stuff, so always remember that you are loved."
