Yup, Caroline Flack had a very sassy comeback for ‘vile’ weight shamers
Think you can body-shame Caroline Flack and get away with it? Not a hope.
The X Factor presenter took to Twitter last night to show she can give as good as she gets when it comes to harsh Twitter comments.
After she appeared on Sunday night's X Factor in a fitted strapless black dress, Caroline spotted several negative comments online about her supposed "weight gain," and took to social media to set things right.
"It's very easy to take a shot at someone online," she wrote in response to the cruel posts about her appearance.
"The vile comments about my weight and just all round look tonight are quite shocking.
"Have never said I'm the prettiest or thinnest or even anything special… But thank god I'm not horrible… Cool attitudes."

Comments posted after last night's show suggested Caroline had "ballooned" in weight, with some people even saying she looked "pregnant."
Is #CarolineFlack pregnant? She's denying it but despite great legs there's a #foodbaby & another chin developing nicely #XFactor #pregnant?

This isn't the first time the presenter has dealt with backlash in the press and online.
In her new autobiography, Storm In A C Cup, she recalls the frustration she felt after her brief relationship with Harry Styles – 15 years her junior – went public.
"It began to go wrong when he was pictured coming out of my house one morning.
"And that was that. In the street people started shouting 'paedophile' at me in the street and 'pervert.'"
Let's hope this is the last night Caroline has to deal with such unwarranted negativity.
