Ariel Winter isn't the first star to address negative comments on Instagram - but she may just be the boldest. When the Modern Family actress posted a bikini shot of herself and her nieces, she received various posts suggesting she was "asking for it."

But her followers had other ideas about the cut of her swimsuit, which many called "provocative."
