Leslie Jones Talks About Twitter With Seth Meyers 2016
Leslie Jones Speaks Out About Internet Trolls: "It's So Gross, Mean, and Unnecessary"
Attention internet trolls: you can't keep Leslie Jones down, so don't bother trying. The Ghostbusters actress and Saturday Night Live comedian stopped by Late Night With Seth Meyers on Thursday to discuss the recent rash of racist tweets aimed in her direction on the social media platform and how everyone misinterpreted her reaction to it all. "They said I left Twitter! I didn't leave!" she told Seth. "What's scary about the whole thing is that the insults didn't hurt me. Unfortunately, I'm used to the insults. That's unfortunate. What scared me was the injustice of a gang of people jumping against you for such a sick cause." Following the infuriating situation, the 48-year-old star has had plenty of celebrities come to her defense, and a number of Ghostbusters fans sent her heartfelt, hilarious video messages of support. With all of the inspirational things she's been sharing lately, it's high time someone returned the favor.
