Mic Drop! The Best Celebrity Clapbacks We Still Haven’t Fully Recovered From

Gwen Stefani

Gwen Stefani isn’t above admitting when she might be in the wrong. The recently active TikToker took to her Instagram Story on February 4, 2020, to respond to a fan who apparently didn’t love her content on the platform.

“I love watching celebrities totally fail TikTok,” the user commented on one of her videos. “Love Gwen she’s amazing buuuuut.” In response, the No Doubt alum wrote back, “Thank u for calling me out you’re right!!! TickTock [sic] is not for me but help yourself to my music and enjoy!! Wait… am I a celebrity??”

Cher

Don’t mess with Cher unless you’ve walked a mile in her “thigh highs.” Lesson learned!

Kate Beckinsale

The actress has received a lot of attention for her fling with ex Pete Davidson. However, she can hold her own. A fan commented on one of her Instagram selfies, “Disappointed in your dating choices.” The London native sharply responded, “Fairly let down by your wonky beard but thought possibly rude to say.”

Rihanna

Rihanna gave the bluntest answer she could after a fan asked, “Why does her hair look so nappy?” Seven years later, “Cuz I’m Black” became the name of one of her Fenty eyeliners.

Hailey Baldwin

The model posted about being grateful for the little things in life on Instagram. A fan tried to make fun of her by commenting, “My husband is worth $265 million, but it’s the little things that make me happy ha ha ha.” The blonde beauty snapped back, “Money doesn’t = happiness. At all. You can be the wealthiest person in [sic] the planet and be miserable … Not fair to judge people’s circumstances from the outside … Am I not allowed to be grateful to sit in the sunshine and enjoy my day like a regular person?”

Cardi B

The rapper sent out a general clap back at anyone who hated on her filing a trademark for “Okurr,” her infamous catchphrase. “Wait, wait, wait, so you hoes is mad because I trademarked ‘Okurrr?’ Let me tell you something, every single time I go to the corporate meeting, these folks be like, ‘Oh my God can we just please hear you say okurrr?’ Every time I go to a TV show, ‘Hey, hey, can you teach me how to say okurrr?'” she said in an Instagram video. “Every time I go do a commercial, ‘Hey can you finish it off with okurrr?’ You think I ain’t going to profit off this s–t? … Bitch, white folks do it all the f–king time. So you want to be mad at me because I want to get some f–king money?”

Kim Zolciak Biermann

The Real Housewife loves responding to haters. While on vacation with her family, someone commented, “Is that much tanning healthy?” on a naked pic of the mom. She simply responded, “Girl, cut the s–t. I’ve been at the beach less than 24 hours … just wait until next weekend.”

Kylie Jenner

The billionaire usually keeps things pretty civil on social media but she totally roasted this person with her wicked sense of humor who called her a “prostitute” on Twitter.

Chrissy Teigen

The queen of Twitter has had some epic clapbacks in her day. Recently, she had the best response to a troll who kept making fun of her weight. “Tiegan [sic] likes to attack people, so I’m attacking her weight, chubby needs to get to the gym,” the person wrote. Chrissy responded, “I hate to say this but … you are not a small person? Also, I don’t care about my weight, sooooo this does not hurt.”

Diplo

The burn heard round the world. After Katy Perry ranked Diplo on the bottom of her sexual escapades, he responded by saying he didn’t even “remember having sex” with the pop star. Ouch.

Busy Philipps

The blonde beauty gave a much-needed grammar lesson to a person who commented, “Ughhhh, you’re rolls are showing,” on a photo of her at the gym. She clapped back, “I feel like a man of your age should know the difference between YOUR and YOU’RE. YOUR is POSSESSIVE, as in ‘YOUR rolls are showing.’ (Get it? The rolls BELONG to me.) YOU’RE is an abbreviation for YOU ARE, as in YOU’RE CLEARLY AN A–HOLE BODYSHAMING LOSER.”

Amber Rose

After Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa‘s feud went a little too far and brought Amber’s son into the mix, she fired back on Twitter and shared some very personal details about the rapper.

Zayn Malik

The former One Direction star dragged his bandmate for making “bitchy comments” about him back in 2015, and it was awkward AF.

Chrissy Metz

The This Is Us actress received rude comments after she wore a red latex dress to the MTV Movie and TV Awards in 2017. She made a strong announcement on Twitter to let people know that she doesn’t give a damn what anyone thinks.

Yolanda Foster

After a fan accused Yolanda‘s daughter, Bella Hadid, of having fillers in her face, the mom of three put an end to any rumors. “None of my children have [ever] done fillers or Botox or put anything foreign in their bodies … They know better after seeing what I went through,” she wrote.

P!nk

The songstress didn’t take kindly to someone who said “Lady Marmalade” was the only relevant music video she’s been in on Twitter. Tell ’em, girl!

Khloé Kardashian

Don’t mommy shame the KUWTK star! When someone asked, “Who’s watching her baby?” on Instagram, the Good American founder wasted no time putting the hater in their place. “Her dad but thanks for being so interested,” Khloé responded.

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi

The Jersey Shore starlet posted a photo of her two kids wearing masks for Halloween on Instagram and fired back after a troll asked “how rich kids do Halloween.” She replied, “I’m raising my kids to know the value of the dollar, hence their dollar store masks.”

Roger Mathews

Roger Mathews defended his children’s Halloween costumes on Instagram since they were playing with toy cigarettes.  “You had to know people were going to ride your ass about the fake cigarettes,” one person wrote. The truck driver replied, “Nope. Didn’t even think about it then. After a few comments, I remembered how many p–sys walk amongst us every day.”

Malika Haqq

After Malika Haqq revealed she was having a boy, many fans took to the comments section to point out that all her “pregnancy posts [are] ads.” However, the reality star cleared the air, writing, “I’ve WORKED my entire pregnancy. We clearly don’t do the same things.”

Shay Mitchell

Fans slammed Shay Mitchell after they accused her of going to Drake’s birthday party “three” days after giving birth to her daughter. “Disgusting … leaving your newborn only days after her birth,” someone wrote. “Days? LOL, honey, just because I posted on that day doesn’t mean she was born on that day,” the Canada native snapped back.

Emily Maynard

The Bachelor Nation babe shared a photo of herself with her husband, Tyler Johnson, enjoying a date night at the opera, but fans thought she might have been pregnant since she was wearing a loose-fitting dress. “If she’s pregnant, then a glorious dress. Otherwise, a little too bohemian and ‘Mrs. Roper-is [sic] looking.” But Emily was feeling her look. “I’ll be sure to let Dolce and Gabbana know that Carol and Lori on Instagram don’t approve.”

Ayesha Curry

After one follower told Ayesha Curry to “stay in the kitchen,” she wrote, “Which one? San Francisco, Houston, Miami or San Diego,” referring to all her acclaimed International Smoke restaurants. Boom, roasted.

Kacey Musgraves

One troll pointed out that they didn’t like Kacey Musgraves’ photo where she is pictured smoking. “You’re less attractive to me now. Sad,” they wrote. Ultimately, it didn’t seem to bother the country crooner. “Oh nooo! I only exist purely for your pleasure. What am I gonna do?” she sarcastically replied.

Anna Kendrick

Anna Kendrick posted a photo from her new film Stowaway, where she wore a space suit. “Not the most flattering outfit,” one person wrote. “Yeah, but I could still f–k your girl, though,” she replied. LOL!

Bethenny Frankel

Bethenny Frankel was not having it when a fan shaded her boyfriend’s age on Instagram. “He is 12. I go to prison next season. #WatchWhatHappens,” she hilariously responded.

Travis Barker

Travis Barker clapped back at a fan in a NSFW comment about his and wife Kourtney’s PDA habits.

“No Kardashian finger up the ass, tongue, intestines, nudity, PDA, etc, etc anymore? [sic] Slacking,” one troll commented under Travis’ Instagram post of him working out in April 2022, captioned “Get after it @barkerwellness.”

“Still got the finger up the ass, and intestines, were totally nude and full PDA with my fiancée [sic],” the Blink-182 drummer wrote in response to the commenter while adding the middle finger emoji.

Angelina Pivarnick

Angelina Pivarnick has never been shy about addressing her critics on social media. In July 2021, the Jersey Shore star was met with backlash when a fan tweeted, “@angelinamtvjs you’re a dumb dramatic bitch and you ruined your own wedding. There is a reason you only lasted 2 seasons and it shows. #DirtyHamster #YouCanStayHereGetYaAssBeat.” Angelina stood up for herself by responding, “Keep watching the show u psycho LOL. I am not going anywhere lollll.”

Coco Austin

In May 2022, Coco Austin addressed mom-shamers when she was criticized for pushing her 6-year-old daughter Chanel around in a stroller during a trip to the Bahamas.

After sharing a photo via Instagram of the outing, Coco received nasty messages arguing that she’s too old to be pushed in a stroller.

“This stroller thing trending right now about me using a stroller to push Chanel around is ridiculous! Isn’t there a war & mass shootings going as we speak, and you’d rather mess with my mothering? SMH,” she wrote on Twitter on May 24, referring to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, that took place on the same day.

Matt Roloff

Matt Roloff received hate from fans when he went live on Instagram in July 2020 to show fans his new chickens.

After one critic called the Little People, Big World star a “bad guy,” Matt responded by saying, “I don’t know if you’re talking about me or the chickens. Probably me and it’s not true. If you guys only knew the real story about everything … you know, you get the TV version of me.”

Audrey and Jeremy Roloff

Audrey Roloff clapped back at mommy-shamers who criticized her and husband, Jeremy Roloff, for letting their daughter Ember ride in a van without a seat belt.

“Also, if you’re looking to recruit some Karens, these comments are full of ‘em,” the LPBW alum wrote in July 2020. Jeremy also responded. “Shame on you,” he wrote to one commenter. He told another, “It’s a good thing I haven’t posted [Ember] riding in the tractor bucket yet.”

Tori Roloff

Tori Roloff responded to a troll who accused her and husband Zach Roloff of being rude to his mom, Amy Roloff, after she shared her engagement news on an April 2020 episode of LPBW.

“I saw last night’s episode and saw how you are your husband reacted to Amy’s engagement,” the fan wrote, commenting on an unrelated photo of Tori and their daughter, Lilah. “And I have to say, you both are very rude. That woman deserves the world and for your husband to be so selfish to not accept the fact that she made that decision [at] least you, as a mother, could have been somewhat happy for her,” adding, “You both were sitting there and didn’t even say ‘congratulations.’”

“You clearly didn’t watch the whole episode,” Tori responded with a peace sign emoji, adding, “[We] were stoked for @amyjroloff and love her so much.”

Meri Brown

In June 2019, Sister Wives star Meri Brown shared a photo of herself via Instagram wearing cute shorts. Shortly after the photo was uploaded, one troll asked, “I didn’t think you were ‘allowed’ to show so much leg. Does this mean [you] finally got away?” The TLC star clapped by responding, “I’m ‘allowed’ to do whatever I want.”
