A recent Instagram post by Michelle, featuring a photo with ‘Spy Kids‘ star Alexa PenaVega, triggered comments by fans expressing worry about her well-being. Responding to a user who suggested she looked sick, theBuffy the Vampire Slayer‘ star shot back.

She wrote, “Explain to me how I look sick. Did you lose a calendar and not realize I’m not 14. I’m 38. How sad for you to leave such a comment.” 

The user then replied, “No disrespect my comment was really not to hurt u. I look up to u. It has nothing to do with ur age. I just find that u look pale and sick. Sorry if i offended u it was not my attention.”

Pretty cruel reply to a comment just asking about your well-being but we understand how the narrative took a negative turn. It looked like fans were not showing concern for the actress but commenting on her appearance.
