Gabourey Sidibe knows how to handle Twitter critics
American Horror Story: Coven actress Gabourey Sidibe attended the Golden Globe awards Sunday along with many of her fellow cast members. As usual, she was her affable and exceptional young lady self, and as usual, folks felt it was necessary to comment on her weight.
Queenie handled the haters with some glorious Gabby flare as she posted the following:
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

As you can see the tweet was, like Queenie herself, much loved by the masses and she couldn’t help but respond, with humility, to the round of applause she received for her shade:
Yay! Everyone is so wonderful and supportive of my shade! This might be a problem down the line. Thank you! #notmyjetthough #imnotthatfancy

Like her Coven character famously stated, “The war is coming… and you are going to lose.” In her honor, we would like to introduce a new internet meme, #QUEENIED!
#QUEENIED – To be upstaged by someone who is simply a better person.
