Ms Rachel hits out at critics after Olivia Munn shuns her popular kids show
In a recent interview, Munn - who is mom to two kids - explained her personal preferences when it comes to the kind of children's content she allows in her household.
'I know kids love [Ms. Rachel], but the thing is, if I can't watch it, I'm not going to spend the rest of my life going crazy,' she said.
Munn, 44, also shared that she avoids cartoons, noting that when her son Malcolm asked for Blue's Clues, she responded, 'Hell no. Not in my house.'
She added that while her partner John Mulaney introduced their son to Spider-Man cartoons, she prefers live-action films like Spider-Man: Homecoming.
'If you want to watch the real-life ones, then we can watch that,' she said.
'It might be a little too old for him, but I can't take the cartoons.'
But, following widespread conversation about the comments, Ms. Rachel, 42, furiously hit back to express her disappointment at the coverage of the allegedly brewing 'feud' with the actress.
While Munn's comments appeared to be more about her personal viewing preferences than criticism of any specific creator, it did not stop online speculation that it was a slight on Ms. Rachel.
In response, Ms. Rachel commented directly on the social media posts of certain outlets, writing, 'I'd rather you cover my advocacy for kids in Gaza.'
She later followed up with a post on her own Instagram account, sharing screenshots of those comments alongside a caption that read: 'WHO CARES?!
'I'd rather you cover me advocating for kids in Gaza who are literally starving, largest cohort of child amputees in modern history, thousands and thousands killed – no medical care, no education, no homes… do better!!!'
She emphasized that her frustration was directed at the coverage - not at Munn.
'Not against her at all and don't care that she doesn't want to watch the show - all my love to her and her family - disappointed in the outlets,' she wrote.
Ms. Rachel, whose real name is Rachel Griffin Accurso, has built a loyal following for her educational videos that emphasize speech development, emotional regulation, and inclusivity.

But in the past year, she's also become known for her outspoken advocacy on behalf of Palestinian children in Gaza who have been under consistent violence by Israel.
Since the start of the humanitarian crisis, she has used her platform to raise awareness about the conditions faced by children there, including lack of access to food, education, and medical care - all while being under constant bombardment by Israel.
Ms. Rachel has even made videos with Palestinian children who were able to escape Gaza - including three-year-old Rahaf who was left a double amputee after Israel's siege of the region.
Ms. Rachel has repeatedly said that her advocacy is non-negotiable - even if it comes at the expense of her career.
'I am fully willing to risk my career for this,' she stated in a video shared earlier this year.
'It is more important to me to speak out than to remain silent.'
Her advocacy has included resharing posts from humanitarian organizations, educating her followers about the crisis, and calling for an end to the violence.

Jordon Hudson hits back at female reporter's savage dig at Bill Belichick and their controversial romance
Jordon Hudson has delivered a subtle clap back to a female reporter who made a savage dig over her romance with legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick. Belichick, 73, and Hudson, 24, have frequently been in the spotlight since their relationship was revealed last year and that was true once again on Friday night. At the Pro Football Hall of Fame Gold Jacket Dinner, reporter Mary Kay Cabot delivered a speech that poked fun at the relationship and swiftly went viral online. Cabot - who is longtime Browns reporter - made mention of the first ever head coach she covered, which just so happened to be Belichick. She detailed how Belichick would 'yell' at her if she wrote something he didn't like - before delivering a brutal one-liner aimed at the veteran NFL coach. She said: 'Now I totally understand why Bill gave me such a hard time. I was 28 [years old] at the time and he just couldn't relate to a woman that old.' Hudson clapped back as she reposted a Tweet which questioned Cabot's joke Many fans online saw the humor in the comment however the same could not be said for Hudson, who swiftly responded in the form of a repost on X. One account which shared Cabot's speech claimed that the reporter had got the 'last laugh' regarding her feud with Belichick. However, Cabot reposted a response to that, which read: 'Not much of a 'laugh.' No wonder so many have contempt for the media, especially those who want to be the story rather than report on the story'. The couple have been dating for over year, however, the spotlight around their relationship intensified after Belichick's disastrous CBS interview, when Hudson cut in to block a question about how they met. The legendary New England Patriots coach was asked about how he first met Hudson and looked visibly uncomfortable, before she called out from off-camera to say their relationship was not a talking point. It sparked a merciless explosion of scrutiny over their relationship and its near 50-year age gap. TMZ later reported that Hudson at one point stormed out of the CBS interview - delaying shooting for around 30 minutes. Another report said that Hudson actually interrupted the interview so much, CBS felt obliged to include footage of one intervention as it was a genuine reflection of their experience. The legendary NFL coach has endured an embarrassing start to life in college football, with Hudson repeatedly overshadowing him as he prepares to coach UNC. Cabot, meanwhile, is not the first person to take aim at Belichick and Hudson in a public space. Her brutal one-liner comes shortly after comedian Shane Gillis made fun of the pair's age-gap relationship as he began a joke about Shohei Ohtani. 'Shohei is a once in a generation talent. No one's been able to do what he's done at so many positions - pitcher, hitter, and bookie,' Gillis said, referring to his former interpreter's $17million betting scandal. He then set his sights firmly on Belichick and Hudson. He continued: 'Bookie' is what Bill Belichick reads to his girlfriend before bedtime. 'They do the 'Very horny caterpillar,' 'The little engine that could but needed a pill first,' and of course, 'Good night boobs.' That's my favorite one. 'Not trashing Bill Belichick,' Gillis went on. 'He is 73 years old and dating a hot 24-year-old. People are criticizing him. What happened to this country? 'We used to be a great country. He won six Super Bowls. He is dating a hot 24-year-old. Maybe if you guys won six Super Bowls you wouldn't be sitting next to a fat ugly dog wife.'

Reassuring fans who were worried about her and her loved ones' safety, she added: 'Thankfully everyone was ok but what kind of human does that?' She and her family have endured a turbulent year in which their home in Altadena, California was damaged so badly by the Los Angeles fires as to be uninhabitable. Subsequently, Mandy was criticized for promoting a GoFundMe for her in-laws who also lost a home to the blaze, as trolls noted her own rumored $14 million net worth.

'Miraculously, the main part of our house is still standing,' shared the A Walk to Remember actress. 'For now. It's not livable but mostly intact.' Amid the spiraling crisis, Mandy also revealed that her brother-in-law Griffin Goldsmith and his wife Kit had lost their house weeks before their baby was due. However she then came under fire online when she shared a GoFundMe set up by one of Griffin and Kit's friends to help them recover from their losses. 'Griff is a touring musician and also lost his entire arsenal of drums/percussion he uses to make a living,' Mandy noted while plugging the crowdfunding page. Online trolls lambasted her, wondering why she was asking others to contribute to her family inasmuch as her own net worth was speculated to be $14 million. Mandy defiantly struck back, fuming at her critics: 'People questioning whether we're helping out our own family or attributing some arbitrary amount of money Google says someone has is NOT helpful or empathetic.' She insisted: 'Of course we are. Our buddy Matt started this go fund me and I'm sharing because people have asked how they can help them. We just lost most of our life in a fire too. Kindly F OFF. No one is forcing you to do anything.'
