Milana Vayntrub is a familiar face to plenty of people, although most probably know her better as "Lily" from a decade of AT&T commercials. The actress became a spokesperson for the company back in 2013, and has portrayed the AT&T salesperson off and on throughout the years. Unfortunately, she has also faced a lot of commentary about her body over the past ten years, to the point of speaking out about it. Now, Vayntrub reveals that another actress known for her work in ads reached out to show some support.
After speaking out over the years about being the target of online harassment about her body, Vayntrub shed some more light in an interview with The New York Times (via Deadline). When the abuse that she received online was adding up, the AT&T actress spokesperson received a call from none other than Stephanie Courtney, a.k.a. "Flo" from the Progressive Insurance commercials. According to Vayntrub, Courtney was an empathetic listener who made her feel "like there were people on my team" when she being bombarded with negative attention.
