Speaking with Vogue for a cover story alongside her Shards co-star Homer Gere, Gerber discussed how being in the public eye has affected her body image, why she embraces the “nepo baby” label and how she’s dealt with being called misogynistic names over her dating life.

“We’re clearly in one of those cycles right now where people are very, very, very thin,” the 24-year-old said. “As someone who’s been thin most of my life, I’ve always been compared against my mom. Like, ‘What’s wrong with Kaia?’ I’m so jealous of my mom’s body. I would have loved to be born with boobs and a butt.”

“People have always commented on my body, which is hard because I’m not always ready to comment on my own body,” she said, adding, “I’ve had disordered eating in my life. People are like, ‘You look terrible,’ and it doesn’t exactly make you go, ‘Oh, good. Let me get over this mental illness then!’ Negativity has never saved someone’s life.”

The Saturday Night actress also opened up about how she’s been criticized over the years for her relationships. Gerber has previously been linked to Pete Davidson, Jacob Elordi and Austin Butler. She’s currently dating Thunderbolts* star Lewis Pullman.

“There are so few things you get to protect as a famous person, and being defined by who you date when you’re 18 is something I find challenging,” she said. “I think I’ve been labeled in ways that are quite misogynistic: serial dater, slut, greedy. My mom is always like, ‘Just don’t make the same mistake twice.’ And I’m pretty good at not.”

Gerber added that she wants to maintain her sense of self within her relationships.

“I think the ultimate goal is that your relationship doesn’t change you, that you’re not code switching between relationship, friendship, professional life. I would love to always feel like me, and in this relationship I’m having the pleasure of doing that,” she said.

As for being called a “nepo baby” because of her famous mother, Gerber said she embraces the label and uses it as motivation to “work harder.”

“I’ve only ever been a nepo baby, and I’ve only ever benefited in my career from it. But I also find myself doing it to other nepo babies, thinking, like, OK, show me why you deserve this job,” she said.

That perspective has also informed how Gerber has approached working with Gere, the son of veteran actor Richard Gere, who was married to Crawford from 1991 to 1995.

Gerber said she warned Homer that his famous family could affect how audiences perceive him as he begins his acting career.

“I said to Homer — because the concept is daunting to him, having lived as an adult so far without that perception, whereas I sort of went through it when I wasn’t fully sentient — I said to him, ‘Homer, unfortunately with this show, it’s not like you’re just any unknown actor and people will judge you as an unknown actor,’” she said. “But what that’s done for me is make me want to work harder.”

Elsewhere in the Vogue story, Gere revealed how he and Gerber first addressed the fact that their parents had been married to each other.

Gere recalled that Gerber was the one to break the ice.

“Should we just acknowledge the fact that our parents were married?” he said. “She was like, ‘Yeah. Cool.’ And that was it.”
