Check out actress Gabourey Sidibe's classic reply to weight critics

The Oscar nominated plus size actress stood up to weight critics in the best possible way. She took to twitter to write what you see above after people slammed her red carpet look at the Golden Globes on Sunday night. Instead of feeling bad, the Precious star had the perfect answer for the mean-spirited tweets directed her way after the awards. Way to go Gabby! See some of the tweets after the cut...

    2. Why she go wear that kain cloth sef? There are dresses for full figured women na. Queen Latifah won't be caught dead on something like this. Exposing all the folds and handles. Chai. As my belle big, it's always empire waist or layered dress. There are some things that are best kept in the dark.

    1. Body magic can't work any magic on Gabourey's body, she's big &the tummy is bulging. The dress is pretty&Gabourey is very confident coming to GG in this dress. An A-line dress would have been beautiful on her....

    2. Leave her,as fat as she is,she still dey enter private jet when she's suppose to be trekking

  27. Hehee... Good to go girl! But mean while you do need to loose that weight, it's not only unattractive but also a health risk. Join 'weight watchers' or something if you need motivation. If Jennifer Hudson can do it, so can you.

  60. It is really nice to be proud of ur looks, eziokwu, bt nt when it ll get u sick. She shld tell herself d truth. She is extremely overweight!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Mbok she shuld loose the weight instead of replying. Shez just too big and d annoying part is dat dere is sumtin she can do abt it.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Good for her but she should watch it cos of health problems. I wonder who does her cos its gonna take a lot of work(spreading, digging and pushing of flesh) to reach the prize. #sonotsexy

    ReplyDelete
  63. SHE LOOK'S TRAGIC . LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Like ur confidence girl.... But U̶̲̥̅̊ are BIIIIGGG.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Doesn't matter how many private jets she's flying. She can and should do something about her weight, ugly and fat, not a good combo.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Reality check though: she is morbidly obese (very very fat)! I am an obese woman and I know that we all WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT no matter what we say. You only know how much you desire it when it starts happening, otherwise some stay in denial. Being very fat has health risks - arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep disordered breathing and snoring, high cholestol, sudden heart attacks, reduced mobility and social issues, restrictions while flying by air, nightmare buying clothes, etc... She needs support to address it, but lashing out is also not the right response

    ReplyDelete
  67. Common guys, using ones mouth to downgrade som1 cos of their looks isn't nyc......there ar a lot of pipo sufferin frm health challanges, I gues her kind of obesity is caused by abnormal excessive growth of her cells thereby makin her grow bigger by d second......I guess she might evn tried goin on weight watchin diets all to no avail......pls go easy on d criticism, there's no perfectly perfect human being anywhere...... Peace!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  68. Lol at d last tweet..do u knw d muffin man...cracked ribs..hahaha

    ReplyDelete
  69. Wants to believe she,s doing a whole lot on herself behind d scene. She can,t join others in condeming herself bcos low self esteem kills faster than death.

    ReplyDelete
  70. She needs a better stylist ...Haba!...why would anyone advise her to wear that figure hugging shimmering gown?...she needs to find a better outfit coordination that will enhance her figure type..and spare us the eye sore...

    ReplyDelete
  71. Well everyone cannot be chopstick,if ur health is safe then no quams. Rock yah bodiii

    ReplyDelete
  72. ROFL! Doesn't change the fact that she's grossly overweight! Plus size? Don't make me laugh.

    ReplyDelete
  73. Lmao dey r hating on her while she's cryin on a private jet goin for a job hmmm I wonder if d haters ve a job to go to?lol.but gurl u need to watch dt cos of ur heart...

    ReplyDelete
  74. Bullshit, she looks smelly abeg. Make dem tell truth. Who gives a fuck about entering private jet? How much does it cost to board one?

    ReplyDelete
  75. what a shame...and all the people criticizing her are blacks...we really do hate ourselves.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Yeah,its easy to respond and say sumfin witty when pple call u fat,but when you go back into the privacy of your room,does the reflection you see in the mirror bother u? If it does do sumfin about it! Simple!

    ReplyDelete
  77. It is a demented world when people look at private jet for happiness. She need to bring that body down some bit.

    Her size does not look healthy, I like big women but hers is on the extreme side. I will be afraid to be her friend!

    ReplyDelete
  78. But she really needs to lose some weight on a more serious note,being obese is so unhealthy, I used to be obese and I started havin high bp,I jst had 2 work on it and nw my bp is bk 2 normal

    ReplyDelete
  82. I like her. I really like her for who she is. Health wise she could do with shedding a few pounds but if it not endangering her health and future, then she is fine.

    ReplyDelete
  83. At least she has money....is better than being skinny and hungry at the same time

    ReplyDelete
  84. Smetin must kill som1 joor! U neva c pple wey slim nd neva reach ha age wey don go 6 fit? Ona tink say ee dey easy to lose weight esp wen its in d gene! Just blabbing

  85. Well it is a shame that people are always this judgemental.. Her answer to her critics was smart..

    ReplyDelete
  86. Obesity is nothing to joke about, she needs to hit the gym or get surgery ASAP!!!

    ReplyDelete
  87. White people are means a** people! That's why God punished them with natural disasters and suicide! They pretend to be sensitive but deep inside, hell is brewing.

    ReplyDelete
  88. This girl is obese. She should stop acting like she loves it. This is not hating, she should watch it cos of Herat problems. Well as long as she's healthy, she should go ahead . But she sure ain't easy on the eyes though.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Girl u got a lot of weight to use,gosh***i almost mistake u as d mighty joe(remember d movie)I guess u dnt hv a bf cos screwing u is a death sentence mtchewwww*cat walks away*

  90. sad, a lot of these peopl who posted nasty comments are black

    ReplyDelete
  91. I love this lady,her acting is on point and her supposed self confidence is contagious,however in the light of all the beautiful attributes she should make sure she's healthy and she eats right and does a little bit of exercise.if the mentioned criteria are met,then she can ignore the world otherwise she should do something fast!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  92. In as much as i love and admire her confidence,it is of great importance that she loses some weight for her health sake.she needs to realize that she needs to lose weight not for anybody but herself so she should take it seriously.

    ReplyDelete
  93. Love her comment, wish there was more people like her.
