Gabourey Sidibe fires back to twitter haters, who insulted her weight and Golden Globes dress, and is clearly not bothered by the mean-spirited comments.
Although Gabourey Sidibe wasn't nominated for any Golden Globe award at last Sunday's ceremony (Jan 12th), she still garnered a lot of attention.
The 30 year-old fell victim to internet-bullying after twitter users targeted her weight and dress in mean-spirited jibes.
The 'Precious' actress stepped onto the red carpet wearing a cream coloured gown designed by her own stylist, Daniel Musto, with fashion designer Michael Costello Couture, E!News reports.
"She looks like a condom," one user wrote.
"Geez! She looks like the chubby ghost from Casper," read another cruel comment.
Thankfully Sidibe was able to take the hater comments light-heartedly and responded in a hilarious tweet.
"To people making mean comments about my GG pics, I mos def cried about it on that private jet on my way to my dream job last night. #JK" she posted.
After posting this tweet the actress received a wave of complements and supportive messages.

This led her to post another tweet, "Yay! Everyone is so wonderful and supportive of my shade! This might be a problem down the line. Thank you! #notmyjetthough #imnotthatfancy."
It seems that the 'American Horror Story: Coven' is quite the entertaining tweeter, before the ceremony even began Sidibe revealed, to her followers, her journey to the A-list event.
"My doll @t_farmiga has the best face! She looks like a dead baby. She knows what I mean! #GoldenGIobes" she wrote of her co-star Taissa Farmiga, along with a pic of the pair in a car.
Before the night was over, Gabourey found time to post one last comical tweet which read, "My underwear hurts..... Need more booze. Send help! #GoldenGIobes".
Despite getting a lot of undeserved criticism, the BAFTA nominated actress seemed to enjoy the night festivities.
