Amy Shark's shocking message to a fan who told the singer to ditch her signature top knot bun
The Australian Idol judge, whose real name is Amy Louise Billings, 39, shared a video on Monday of her performing one of her old songs in her bedroom.
A man identified only as 'Rupert' commented critically on the singer's signature bun hairstyle, writing: 'Oh the bun is back ffs get rid of it.'
The Australian singer was quick to shut him down in her fiery response.
'I'll have you know that I'm just relaxing at home and my hair is up, so it doesn't go in my food. I also don't give a f**k if you live or die… so there's that,' Amy penned with a shrug emoji.

Some fans were quick to praise the singer's response to the troll.
'Haha! I love whatever is wrong with you,' one commented.
'Get it girl, never get rid of your bun,' added a second.
'Someone call 000, Rupert needs to go to the burns ward,' said another, while one fan simple wrote: 'Wow' in reaction to Amy's words.
The ARIA Award-winning artist doubled down on her clapback on Friday as she posted a second video addressing the online interaction.
'This guy wrote a comment to me the other night and trust me I don't read comments, it just happened to pop down while I was on TikTok,' Amy began her video.
'I read it and thought "That's not nice."'
'I mean they all suck and I approve them all because I don't really care. I just replied to him and I absolutely wiped the floor with this guy.
She was quick to shut down a social media troll in her comments section
'And now he's all like "Aw but",' she pouted.
'Don't be an a**hole. I'm a bigger one.'
It comes after the singer sparked concern among fans last month when she posted a candid and emotional video to TikTok revealing a deeply personal family rift.
Amy shocked followers as she opened up about her strained family relationships, saying she doesn't speak to her parents at all – and that the only person she truly cared about has since passed away.
'I don't think anyone on here actually realises just how f**king crazy I could be,' she began in the raw video, staring directly into the camera.
'I don't talk to my parents. Not my mum or my dad. Not even like … like, no one,' she continued.
'The only person that I cared about is dead now. And like, my brothers... We're fine, but he's six years younger than me. So he's not telling me what to do.'
Amy then appeared to spiral further as she confessed: 'I could be going f**king crazy, crazy. Like I could do anything. I'm not gonna disappoint anyone.'
Amy sparked concern among fans in June after posting a candid and emotional video to TikTok, revealing a deeply personal family rift
Reflecting on her upbringing, she added: 'My parents had me when they were like 19 and 20. I found videos - I know what the f**k they were doing.'
She concluded the emotional clip with a plea for recognition: 'I just think I need a little more respect from people to be like, wow, Amy turned out pretty good.'
The post quickly amassed thousands of views and an outpouring of support, with fans flooding the comments to express concern and solidarity.

From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'Wow I can't believe how thin Julie is. She looks good, but I think the drop in weight makes her look older also,' another posted. 'Pulled pork isn't the only thing Julie Goodwin's been shredding huh?' joked someone else. 'Wow I hardly recognised Julie!' one said with yet another chiming in, 'Julie looks good!' Viewers were in uproar over the night's elimination, however, with beloved contestant Sarah Todd sent home after her undercooked pork belly failed to impress. Sarah, who made headlines for her romance with fellow contestant Declan Cleary, who was also eliminated earlier this month, broke down in tears as she explained she was grateful for her time in the high-pressure kitchen. 'I'm absolutely proud of everything I've done this time around in the kitchen,' she said. 'It's been really fun to push myself and experiment and create the next version of me,' she continued. 'I'm very grateful for MasterChef. It's given me a really beautiful life. And I'm excited. I'm excited for what's about to come.

Julie shared an update on Instagram after a new photo, in which she looked very slim, was posted to her account. Her dramatic transformation led to comments from worried followers. 'Thanks to all who have expressed concern about my health,' she began. 'I am well and I am within the healthy weight range. My doctor concurs,' she continued. 'For those who have asked me for advice or tips, I am not qualified to provide this. It's advice that should be sought from your trusted health professionals, not from me. I'm a TV cook,' Julie continued. 'For those who want to comment on the shape and condition of my body please, do it on your own page because I'm tired of reading it. For that reason I'll be turning off comments on this post. 'For all of us can we please find something more interesting to talk about. Can we please model kindness to our kids and grandkids and can we please leave this obsession with people's looks back in the 1980s. Peace and love.' The celebrity cookbook author shot to national fame after winning the inaugural season of Network Ten's MasterChef Australia in 2009.

Caroline Wozniacki announces major personal news one year on from ex Rory McIlroy's divorce drama
Caroline Wozniacki has welcomed her third child with retired NBA forward and husband David Lee, the tennis star has announced. Wozniacki, 35, shared the heartwarming news on Instagram three months after revealing that she and Lee, 42, were expecting another baby. The loved-up couple, who tied the knot back in June 2019 after getting engaged two years earlier, already have a three-year-old daughter, Olivia, and a two-year-old son, James. And the former Australian Open champion announced Saturday that they have expanded their family again following the birth of son Max. Alongside an adorable photo of her two other children holding the newborn baby in their arms, Wozniacki wrote on Instagram: 'Max Wozniacki Lee, born July 26, 2025! Mom and baby are healthy and our family couldnt be happier!' Wozniacki's latest child with Lee, a former NBA All-Star power forward who played for the New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors amongst others, comes almost a year on from ex-fiance Rory McIlroy 's shocking divorce drama. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Caroline Wozniacki (@carowozniacki) McIlroy was in a relationship with the Grand Slam winner for three years before dramatically breaking off their engagement in 2014 after admitting he was not ready for marriage. Three years later he did tie the knot with current wife Erica Stoll. Last year, however, the five-time major champion filed to divorce Stoll after serving her with papers at their home in Florida, only to U-turn on that proposal less than a month later. Rumors suggested that McIlroy had been having some form of a relationship with CBS Sports' Amanda Balionis while they were both out on tour. None of these rumors have been proven and neither Balionis nor McIlroy have outright addressed them. By June, less than a full month after Stoll was served, the filing was withdrawn and the couple have remained together. A sporting super-couple, McIlroy and Wozniacki were together between 2011 and 2013 before he ended the relationship when he said he was not ready for marriage. The duo had sent out wedding invitations after a New Year's Eve proposal in Sydney and Wozniacki posted: 'Happy New Year everyone! Rory and I started 2014 with a bang! I said YES!!!!' But only months later, McIlroy changed his mind. At the time, he put out a statement, reading: 'There is no right way to end a relationship that has been so important to two people. 'The problem is mine. The wedding invitations issued at the weekend made me realise that I wasn't ready for all that marriage entails. 'I wish Caroline all the happiness she deserves and thank her for the great times we've had. I will not be saying anything more about our relationship in any setting.' Wozniacki has since admitted to being stunned at the way in which the break-up was handled. She previously told Graham Bensinger: 'I was shocked. I thought at least I would get a face-to-face or something, but there was nothing. It was a phone call, and I did not hear from him again. It kind of just ended.

Dancing With The Stars says goodbye to beloved athlete as the competition heats up in brutal semi-finals
Dancing With the Stars entered the semi-finals on Sunday night. Saying goodbye was Olympic boxer Harry Garside, who was eliminated just short of making it to the finals. With their freestyle performances in sight, the stakes were higher than ever as each couple hit the floor determined to secure their place in the grand finale. Harry opened the show with a steamy Mad Max inspired Tango. While the judges agreed the style wasn't his strongest, they praised his effort and commitment to the performance before scoring him 20 points. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. With the audience vote combined with judges' scores, it was Harry and partner Siobhan Power who were sent home. Reflecting on his journey, Harry said: 'It's been so much fun. It's such an amazing process. 'To share this with Siobhan, and to learn how to dance from her, like how cool is that? So fingers crossed it helps my boxing, I'm sure it will.' Last week, fan favourite Osher Günsberg was shown the exit door during a dramatic episode. Taking to the ballroom with a Tango routine backed by David Bowie 's 1980 hit Fashion, the TV host put in a feverish performance that failed to impress the judges. Taking his cue from the evening's 'Kings and Queens of song' theme, judge Craig Revel Horwood did not mince words when delivering his verdict. 'Well that was a right royal mess! I don't know what that step was, coming down the ramp, darling, but it was fumbled...' Craig began, but a furious Osher interrupted. Visibly annoyed, Osher snapped, 'Would you like to try going down that Perspex ramp in those heels, sir? You're more than welcome to show me.' He continued to rage: 'But I need you to be doing it in a tango step while the person next to you is on one foot kicking, and you're holding their momentum against you. After you!' Craig seemed taken aback by the fiery exchange, replying to a fuming Osher, 'That is not my job'. He then continued on with his critique despite the tense atmosphere, which had host Sonia Kruger visibly shocked. 'It was completely erratic,' Craig said, after dismissing Osher's remarks. Craig told the frustrated TV personality, 'You were making mistakes left, right and centre.' Fellow judge Mark Wilson did offer Osher some words of encouragement, telling him that he admired his determination to improve his dancing skills. However, the final score was a dismal 15 points and Osher was sent home.
