Earlier this month, 19-year-old songstress Zendaya accepted Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Award for "Favorite Kids Show Female Star." During her touching speech, the "K.C. Undercover" sweetheart stated:
"Making positive programming for young people is so important to me... To all the parents out there, thank you for allowing me to be a role model for your children."
Well, outspoken commedianne Julie Klausner would beg to differ. During the show, Klausner totally blasted the "Replay" singer on Twitter, insisting that she's way too thin to inspire such youth:
@julieklausner: "And thinspo model for your impressionable tweens."
But the "Difficult People" star didn't stop there...
@julieklausner: "Zendaya's ultimate retort to Giuliana Rancic is starving herself down to the size of one of her elbowz."
@julieklausner: "You don't have to have an eating disorder to attend the Kids' Choice Awards... but it helps!"
@julieklausner: "I will never stop criticizing celebs who perpetuate dangerous beauty standards for a generation of girls who grow up thinking they're fat."
@julieklausner: "And you know those public fat shamers who fake 'concern' for Melissa McCarthy's health? Consider me your fire with fire."
@julieklausner: "I'm concerned with the generation of girls who aspire to look like Zendaya. I do not worry about Zendaya's health or care whether she eats."
Eventually, Klausner's crazy cyber rant got much worse once fans started responding in support of Zendaya (including the Disney beauty herself):
@Zendaya: "Do you find this funny? I will write another paragraph to educate you aswell #youreallywannabenext?"
And Klausner's response?
@julieklausner: "I'm gonna #logoff before these Zendaya fans (the Zenhive?) actually make my brain explode with how smart they are?"
@julieklausner: "I would like to use this opportunity to educate Zendaya fans that the Reagans ignored AIDS... Sticking up 4 AIDS is rad. It gets such a bad rap! Love that Zendaya goes so far as 2 have Nancy Reagan's body type!"
Huh?
But then she finished with this ridiculous remark:
@julieklausner: "Let's not fight. Here is my olive branch to Zendaya fans- can we just all agree that 1) all women are beautiful and 2) Zendaya hates Jews?"
Thankfully, the "Contagious Love" crooner remained positive throughout this extremely bizarre tirade:
@Zendaya: "Now... everyone go look in the mirror at their beautiful body, and love that sh*t. #thickgirlswinning #skinnygirlswinning #weallwinning."
