Actress Gabourey Sidibe is firing back at her critics after mean comments surfaced about her appearance in her Daniel Musto and Michael Costello Couture dress following her appearance at the Golden Globes on Sunday.
She took to Twitter to slam those who wrote negative comments about her, which she has been getting a lot of support for ever since.
“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 wrote.

She followed up with:
Yay! Everyone is so wonderful and supportive of my shade! This might be a problem down the line. Thank you! #notmyjetthough #imnotthatfancy

Some of the negative comments on Twitter included, "I love Gabby Sidibe but she looked like the GLOBE at the Golden Globes,” and "Who thought this was okay?” #ImSurprisedSheCouldFitInTheFrame "#IThinkSheAteTheGoldenGlobes."
CNN notes this isn’t the first time Sidibe has taken negative comments in stride. After she appeared in 2010’s Precious, she was nominated for an Academy Award.
Sidibe, 30, can be seen on FX’s American Horror Story: Coven.
