Jennifer Hudson has been making headlines this week after reports claimed she’d slimmed down to a size 0, at least according to Joy Behar. The View co-host claims she ran into the Academy Award winning singer/actress while shopping in New York last week, and discovered that she now wears a size 0. Well, one of Jen’s twitter followers asked her yesterday:
“Did you get surgery to assist in your weight loss? Or is it all weight watchers?”
Jennifer responded:
“Pls don’t ask me no more dumb ass questions . If [you] try [Weight Watchers] you would know you don’t need any assistance . U people r so brain wash.”
As you can probably imagine, this dialogue quickly soured. The follower tweeted that as a consumer she had the right to ask, but used some really rude language to do so, to which Jen responded in kind.
Jennifer: “lol u funny! Thank u for your hate n clearly the gym ain’t working for u cuz u look a mess. I’m sorry yal hold on! watch what u say cuz I might have to buy a plane/flight n come show u some of my southside n then come back home to where your not!”
The Follower: “B—h you have crows feet, laugh lines, your knees are knocked, and on the Essence cover you had stretch marks. Do you really? Your last cd hit six feet so the only way your getting paid is to starve and rotate them WW commercials. Your husband is gay, everybody knows but your blind a–. But you can’t see that because your starving a– is going nuts. B—h don’t do it because I will drag your a– from WHERE YOU AT all the way here down south. B—h u were a size 24, could only pull a gay man and you attack because you’re a size 0? #LETSNOT Threats? Child. You are so lame. Threatening to put hands on me is unbecoming. You’re beginning to look stupid.”
Yikes! Jennifer recently stopped by the Tony Sculfield and the Morning Riot Show and explained why she let loose, attributing her response to feeling disrespected:
“I don’t know why, but somewhere along this weight loss people forgot that I am from Chicago. But it’s not even that. It’s to me…it’s when you know it’s me on there. I literally sit and I talk to my fans all the time, so you know it’s me and you know you’re talking to me. And I feel as though, don’t say nothing to me on Twitter that you not gonna say to my face. I don’t know, somewhere along the lines, people think they can talk to celebrities any kind of way…we are people, too. Just the same as you want your respect we want ours.
It’s not just what you say but how you say it, so excuse me guys, I lost my celebrity religion for a second, give me a second and I’ll be right back.”
When the host asked her to set the record straight on whether she had liposuction or not, Jennifer responded:
Oh, my God if somebody asks me that question one more time. ‘Can you give me your secret?’ Every time that commercial comes on I’m giving you the secret and it will work for you, if you try it. I give you the website, the phone number; I can’t tell you no more that ‘Weight Watchers’ work, it really does. Also, it can be done naturally and that’s another reason why I got frustrated is because I’m out here trying to put out a positive message. I know I’ve done this naturally; I do not appreciate you undoing what I’ve done and trying to make it negative.
Sometimes, you’ve just gotta let some folks have it. But a superstar like Jennifer doesn’t need to waste her time squabbling with someone who’s got a whole lot less to lose. People are always going to ask questions, especially surrounding her dramatic weight loss. It’s not worth the drama, Jen!
