11 Surprising Things You Probably Didn't Know About Celeste Barber

If you’ve been on the Internet in the past four years, you may have stumbled across a woman who makes fun of celebrities’ pictures by parodying them.

This woman is Celeste Barber, an Australian comedian who started the #celestechallengeaccepted in 2015 as a joke with her sister. However, these escapades soon went viral as soon as she started posting the parody pictures onto the Internet! Celeste says started the challenge “as a fun experiment to see what it would look like for an average person to photograph herself doing rich people things.”

Celeste Barber has amassed 5.7 million followers on Instagram posting these hilarious images. The premise is to parody model shoots of the most famous and beautiful celebrities by comparing what it might look like for an average woman to strike those same poses. She has made parody images of Victoria Beckham, Beyonce, Selma Blair, Ciara, Kendall Jenner, Lady Gaga, Gigi Hadid, Kim Kardashian, and even Justin Bieber to name a few.

All this being said, you may not know much about her other than what she posts. Here are a few things that you didn’t know about Celeste Barber.

What Are Celeste Barber's Measurements?

One of the main reasons why Celeste Barber’s parody pictures are funny is because she has a height-weight ratio that is not considered traditionally ‘sexy’. She has embraced her extra weight and used it to fuel her brand, making it an integral part of her image.

According to the last recorded count, Celeste Barber is 5 feet 8 inches or 171 centimetres in height.

Calling out our ridiculous obsession with celebrity Instagram culture, Celeste reveals all, including her thoughts on keeping it real, the secrets to love, friendship, family and marriage (oh hai, #hothusband), and how to deal with life’s many challenges, like, motherhood, and what to do when your local bottle shop-owner can’t remember your name.”
