Furious Megan McKenna launches scathing attack on trolls after she’s compared to Scooby Doo character
FURIOUS Megan McKenna today launched a scathing attack on trolls after they compared her to a Scooby Doo character.
The former Towie legend went on a huge rant after some fans said she looked like a famous character from the iconic 80s cartoon.
The former Towie star – who shares a baby with her footballer fiancé Oliver Burke – didn’t hold back after she was likened to a cartoon character.
Megan was annoyed with some fans who said she looked like Velda from Scooby Doo.
The legendary character is known for her bobbed haircut and thick rimmed glasses.
However, Megan didn’t take too kindly to the comparison and went on an almighty rant.
In an Instagram video she fumed: “People keep calling me Velma from Scooby Doo with these glasses on.
“I genuinely cannot see it now, so thank you for that.
“But also, I don’t care. So if people are, like, sending me nasty comments and memes about me looking like Velma.
“Thinking you’re so funny and you’re really offending me, you’re not.
“Because I actually think she looks f***ing cool. And I am aware I look like Velma, OK?
“Secondly, if you want to get deep with this whole situation, which I will get deep, actually, because I’ve actually had enough of you f***ing trolls.
“Sometimes I’ve actually had enough.
“Because why do people feel like they can just jump online and be nasty to people about their appearance? Why?
“Especially… I won’t go into it, but especially when the person that he’s actually trolling isn’t that pretty on the eye.”
Megan also captioned the video with a lengthy post, which read: “Trolls need to be called out don’t you agree?
“In my opinion being called Velma isn’t being trolled but it hit a nerve with being judged online. I’ve had a fair share of trolling over my time in the limelight.
“I’m Sick and tired of you gremlins commenting on people’s appearances. I’m lucky I have thick skin.
“But some people don’t. Especially young people. People at school. It makes me feel sick to think teenagers especially get trolled or mocked online.
“Come on guys! The worst ones are parents on here. We live in a very sad world atm.
“Remember the days when we used to play out with our friends and wear what we wanted and not be judged???? What happened!?”
MEGAN’S NEW LIFE
Meanwhile, Megan recently opened up about her new life away from reality TV.
The star swapped Essex for Germany six months ago when her footballer fiancé Oliver signed to Bundesliga club Werder Bremen.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Megan said: “Honestly, I feel like all my stuff before – the reality TV and everything – was just like getting me ready for this sort of life,” she admits.
“I do feel like a completely different person now.
“And sometimes I look back on footage of myself and think, ‘Was I OK?’
“I had this reputation that I was very mouthy.”
Opening up about her reality TV past, she said: “I was just so young. I was 22 and going on reality TV shows. TV is very different now.
“When I was on some of the MTV shows, there was a lot of alcohol, too.
“I don’t think they would allow that nowadays.
“We would have had a whole jug of tequila to ourselves if we had wanted.
“Back then, I was naive, I was young, and unfortunately some of my lowest moments were played out on camera.”
