Which was basically - stop moaning about being fat, it's easy to lose weight if you really want to.
Comments which should never have caused uproar and if anything should have been applauded considering how much money the NHS has to spend on people simply because they eat too much.”
I'm reasonably intelligent and I'd say very reasonable, certainly in real life. I was very much aware of her before CBB and have never liked her acid comments towards people and certainly not those in which she contradicts herself.
She did not just call Alicia stupid, she referred to her as only having one brain cell which was then referenced again in her 'talent' in that show type thing. Then of course she has been called stupid too here and there.
I'd suggest that you are making a massive assumption that people who do not like her attitude are mainly overweight people, why on earth would you do that when she has a vast history of insulting many types of people?
FGS stop making those assumptions about people with a viewpoint
