The actress, 27, is best known for starring as Kat Hernandez on HBO's hit series Euphoria.

She recently took social media by storm with a striking transformation, revealing her slimmer frame.

In a recent social media update, Ferreira shared a mirror selfie from her dressing room, complete with her name card at the top, showcasing her new physique.

The images immediately ignited conversations online, with many praising her "insane" transformation.


People flooded her comments with praise, writing: "Sensational", and: "Gorgeous at ANY weight fr."

Others added: "you look beautiful! very radiant and happy," and: "Always been that girl. Always will."

Some of her followers called out the focus people had put on Ferreira's figure over the years, writing: "yall know she used to be this weight?? gained weight? and lost it again. i lose and gain weight all the time i go from 150 to 93 pounds like once every other year due to meds that im on. she is beautiful either way."

Another wrote: "There's no way you guys are shaming her for losing weight. She looks stunning. Even when she was bigger. She looks amazing either way. Can't even lose weight without ppl making jokes."

One added: "Normalize not commenting on women’s bodies and keeping your opinions to yourself, it’s harmful."

However, Ferreira's physical transformation isn't the only change she's embraced. Recently, she revealed her departure from Euphoria, expressing a desire to move beyond typecast roles.

In a candid interview on Dax Shepard's podcast last year, Ferreira discussed her reasons for leaving the show, stating: "I think my character, who I love so dearly, I don’t think there was a place for her to go... I really wanted to be able to not be the fat best friend.

"I don’t want to play that, and I think they didn’t want that either."

This "mutual decision" to exit Euphoria, as Ferreira described it, underscores her commitment to evolving both her career and personal identity beyond the expectations set by her early success.
