Katie Hopkins is what’s called in Great Britain, a “TV presenter;” think Kathie Lee Gifford and a Fox News Barbie Bobble-head and you get the idea. Nice to look at, but not so smart. I mean, how else can we explain that, for some reason, Hopkins decided to get on her Twitter account and pitch a fit about Kelly Clarkson … who … well, we’ll let Kelly say what she has to say about Katie Hopkins in a second.
Hopkins Tweeted this:
"Look chubsters. Kelly Clarkson had a baby a year ago. That is no longer baby weight. That is carrot cake weight. Get over yourselves."
Lovely; women fat-shaming women; even when it’s stupid women doing the fat-shaming, it’s still disgusting. But Hopkins wasn’t done; she also made some comments after Kelly performed on the Graham Norton Show:
“Jesus, what happened to Kelly Clarkson? Did she eat all of her backing singers? Darling, if you had a baby a year ago, that is not baby weight. It is fat. Quit calling it cute names to make yourself feel better.”
To be fair, Kelly had a baby eight months ago, but, well, does it matter, or is Hopkins just a classless twit? But the best part of all this is what happened when people began to ask Kelly Clarkson about Katie Hopkins and Kelly said:
“Who?”
And when she learned who this nitwit was, Kelly again took the high road and responded:
“Oh, and she’s tweeted something nasty about me? That’s because she doesn’t know me. I’m awesome! It doesn’t bother me. It’s a free world. Say what you will. I’ve just never cared what people think. It’s more if I’m happy and I’m confident and feeling good, that’s always been my thing. And more so now, since having a family – I don’t seek out any other acceptance.”
Two women; one classy and smart, one without so much as a couple of brain cells to rub together and access to social media.
