Chris Hughes, 32, hits back at trolls accusing him of 'doing anything for fame' amid his romance with JoJo Siwa, 22
passionately hit back at trolls this weekend after they accused him of being a 'creep' and 'doing anything for fame' amid his romance with JoJo Siwa. The former Love Islander, 32, found love with the singer, 22, on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year - shocking fans with their unlikely romance. And on Saturday Chris shared a slew of loved-up snaps with JoJo amid their long-distance relationship and penned in the caption: 'just everything - missing you.' Underneath one troll had commented saying: 'Does anybody else find this creepy.' Chris then responded to the woman named Pauline, saying: 'no Pauline, you're miserable, p**s off kindly.' She then responded: 'lol we see long it lasts.' He then continued in a second comment: 'yeah again, you don't need to speak, you don't follow me, respectfully do one thank you.' Chris Hughes passionately hit back at trolls this weekend after they accused him of being a 'creep' and 'doing anything for fame' amid his romance with JoJo Siwa On Saturday Chris shared a slew of loved-up snaps with JoJo amid their long-distance relationship but some of the comments underneath were unkind Another troll called Liz had also commented under his loved-up post, saying: 'Mate sort yourself out. You would do anything for fame.' One of Chris' fans then defended him saying: 'oh liz, imagine hating someone who's just living and happy. Misery aren't you.' Liz then wrote back: 'I don't hate anybody sweetheart I just live in the real world.' To which Chris then responded: 'the real world! online bullies are the real world apparently.' His fans were loving that he was addressing some of the trolls as one said: 'love your energy tonight Chris!' His responses come after Chris opened up on future baby plans with JoJo as he gushed over their romance. In a chat with US Weekly, Chris recently said: 'We genuinely speak to each other about this, I would be lying if I said we didn't. 'When you're besotted with each other and in love with someone I think it's fun to look forward to those things. Chris continued: 'Of course I want to get married to her, I would never shy away from that. And one day I want to have children. One day I'd love to have children, it would be an absolute dream for sure.' It came after Chris revealed the nickname JoJo has for his private parts in a shocking X-rated confession. The star told E! News last week: 'She calls my balls Jimmy and Timmy. So she must like Jimmy and Timmy,' adding that she loves 'the rhyming lingo.' He also sweetly described JoJo as the 'love of his life' in the chat after confirming they were officially in a relationship last month. Chris said: 'She's literally the love of my life, but she's also my best friend. Like, we sit and do nothing together.' He also explained that the pair only formally had their first date together recently as they prefer to spend time in each other's company instead. He recalled: 'We went up to Malibu and we went for a lovely dinner and it was like a date night. On the way back - it was like an hour drive home - we parked up and we said to each other, 'That was actually our first proper date together.'' The TV star explained that the experience further solidified the belief that he and JoJo are the ideal match for each other. JoJo revealed last month that she had 'so many thoughts' about marrying Chris. Speaking to TMZ, JoJo said: 'He is my favourite person in the world... It's beautiful, it kind of radiates. He's my favourite person and I am very grateful and very happy.' The former Nickelodeon star also rubbished suggestions that the pair's romance was merely a 'PR stunt'. She told The Guardian newspaper: 'Clearly, you've never been around us. I won't ever speak for him, but for me personally, the happiness in my life just radiates off of me right now. 'Literally yesterday, I was massaging my cheeks; I've never [before] been in pain from smiling so much.' However, JoJo does understand why others are intrigued that she and Chris are together. She said: 'People can see our chemistry, and they got to see it develop. I think everyone's just curious, and I can't blame them.'

Trolls call me a ‘lazy scrounger' & tell me to ‘get a job' – I'm not ‘dirty' & don't think my council house is ‘messy'
A MOTHER has revealed that she has been cruelly accused by trolls of being a 'lazy scrounger.' Not only this, but Jaz, who is from the UK, has been told to 'get a job ' and has even been slammed for having a 'dirty' home. 2 2 But the mum-of-two, who lives in a council house, was eager to clap back to the haters and set the record straight on her situation. In a recent cleaning video posted on social media, Jaz, who has two kids under four, gave her followers a close-up look at her council property, which she moved into four weeks ago. But despite hoovering ''almost daily'' and mopping ''every few days',' Jaz explained: 'I've had so much hate in my comments calling me 'dirty', 'lazy', 'a scrounger ', telling me they 'wouldn't bring their dogs up in this mess'.' Eager to hit back at the keyboard warriors, Jaz said: 'Well to me, this isn't messy, I mean, except the carpets and the handprints on the walls, but the toys? To me that's completely normal." She claimed that having toys all over the floor is expected when you have two young kids who are "constantly looking for ways to stimulate themselves" and are "constantly playing.' Jaz then told those who don't like her or her content to 'move on,' as she insisted she is 'not going anywhere.' She acknowledged that haters are 'wasting their time', as she snapped: 'And to the people calling me lazy - you're literally calling me lazy on a video of me cleaning, so you probably need to give your head a wobble, because you are literally judging me based off an hour of my life, you do not see what happens behind the scenes and you do not know how my body is feeling.' The content creator then confirmed: 'And there's some people saying 'just get a job', 'stop scrounging off the government' - my dream was to become a tattoo artist, I was so close to getting an apprenticeship with someone in my home town, but then my carpal tunnel symptoms started flaring up really badly.' The mother revealed that she was 'so upset' when she had to 'turn' the potential apprentice 'down.' She then continued: 'So until my pain stops flaring up and my children grow up a bit, I probably won't be getting a job anytime soon.' I scrub my council house walls but they're COVERED in mould & crumbling away - I have two disabled kids, it's disgusting The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ typicalgeminix, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 71,400 views, 3,642 likes and 822 comments. Despite the hate Jaz often receives, this time round, social media users were overwhelmingly positive and were eager to share messages of love and support for the mother. You're literally calling me lazy on a video of me cleaning, so you probably need to give your head a wobble Jaz One person said: 'Keep going darling, your kids know how much you love them and that's all that matters.' Another added: 'Ignore the trolls - you're doing amazing.' The reality of living in a council house LEANNE Hall, Digital Writer at Fabulous, has discussed what it was like growing up in a council house, and why those living in such properties are often judged... When I was a child I grew up in a council house, and was blissfully unaware of the discrimination that came with that, until I became an adult. My younger years were spent running up and down the stairs of my flat, meeting with other friends who lived there and making the most of the communal garden. But now, it seems no matter your circumstance, everyone has something to say about why you shouldn't be there. Living just outside of London like I did, rent prices are still high, and as my mum was at home raising three kids at the time, it wasn't easy to find a job that fit around that. People in council houses are often labelled as 'scroungers' or 'lazy' but it's nothing of the sort. Most families in council homes experience overcrowding, and let's not even mention the horrendous amount of damp and mould that comes from living in old social housing that hasn't had work done to them in 50 or so years. It's not ideal for many, but it does provide a secure home without the fear your rent will shoot up every single year, which I would argue is vital to children growing up on the poverty line. A third commented: 'I'd expect your house to be messy with two children and it's hardly dirty, that's a normal house to me.' Meanwhile, someone else chimed in: 'It's not that bad. You can't live in a show home with young kids.' At the same time, another attempted to reassure Jaz and wrote: ' Keyboard warriors have plenty to say. But none of it is worth taking any notice of.'

Trolls call my man a ‘good looking lad' but say I'm ‘average'…I don't care, I'm the best thing that ever happened to him
A MOTHER has confidently clapped back at trolls after she was accused of 'punching' with her hot hubby. Brooke Sherbert hit the headlines last year after haters accused her of being out of her partner's league. 2 And now, the curvy mum has shone a light on yet another rude remark from a keyboard warrior labelling her as 'average.' Alongside a short clip of the influencer with her tattooed husband, Tom Leeds, Brooke responded to a nasty comment from an anonymous troll that read: 'He's quite a good looking lad whereas you're very average, so it won't last.' But the stunner couldn't disagree more with the insult and was eager to set the record straight. After being together for over a decade and sharing two kids together, in response, Brooke, who is known online as Raising Romey, wrote: 'Funny how 14 years later, he still looks at me like I'm the best thing that ever happened to him.' She then continued: 'Maybe 'average' is your word for effortless.' The couple shared a kiss in the short clip and Tom admired his stunning wife, before cheekily grabbing hold of her breast. Clearly unbothered by the remark, the mum-of-two, who looked jaw-dropping in a glam midi dress and heels, later wrote: 'I'll take average if it gets me another 14 years of this!' The blonde beauty also flicked her hair, laughed and smiled at her husband and then the camera, poking fun at the "jealous" hater. Speaking about her close relationship with Tom, Brooke previously pointed out that their marriage goes deeper than appearance. Brooke said: "We have seen so many versions of each other, we have shared so many memories, been through so much together. "We have been there for each other through the lowest lows and the highest highs. We are each other's family and home, forever and always." Not only this, but she also shared a message to keyboard warriors who comment on other's bodies, as she expressed: "To the faceless, nameless people that think it's OK to speak like this to strangers on the internet, I really hope you get the help you need to get out of that dark hole. "Do some inner work and reflect on yourself rather than project onto others." Social media users react Brooke's TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @ brooke_sherbert, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it was shared just 24 hours ago, but has quickly racked up 158,600 views. Not only this, but it's also amassed 4,170 likes, 1,064 comments and 72 saves. Celeb relationships who've faced cruel 'punching' claims BUT this isn't the first time we've seen someone be accused of 'punching'. Pierce Brosnan and Keely Shaye Smith Keely Shaye Smith was the subject of cruel trolling last year after trolls made a dig at the American journalist for how her body changed after 20 years and two children. Declan Rice and Lauren Fryer Lauren Fryer, the long-term partner of Arsenal player and England captain, was the target of horrific online abuse earlier this year, when keyboard warriors accused the woman of being 'out of his league'. Jay Z and Beyonce The couple have been married for 16 years, but are often met with cruel criticism from trolls claiming that 'Jay Z is punching above his weight, he's lucky to be married to Beyonce.' Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy Peter Crouch, who shares four children with model Abbey Clancy, has admitted that he is punching with his beautiful wife, as he claimed he would be a "virgin" if he wasn't a professional footballer and said: "I couldn't pull a hamstring until I was about 21. I was ridiculed by every newspaper, every press outlet, I was different. I was just incredibly tall.' Social media users were gobsmacked by the troll's nasty remark and many eagerly rushed to the comments to praise the good-looking mother. One person said: 'If this girl is 'average' then there's no hope for the rest of us.' Another added: 'Why would someone comment something so nasty. Think someone might be jealous.' A third commented: 'I just see an equally beautiful and happy couple.' Meanwhile, someone else asked: 'Average where?' Not only this, but another user chimed in and wrote: 'That comment is clearly from someone who has never had a genuine connection in their life, keep shining.'

Giant trolls have a message for humans about protecting the planet
WOODSIDE, Calif. (AP) — Nestled in forests around the world, a gentle army of giant wooden trolls want to show humans how to live better without destroying the planet. The Danish recycle artist Thomas Dambo and his team have created 170 troll sculptures from discarded materials such as wooden pallets, old furniture and wine barrels. Twelve years after he started the 'Trail of a Thousand Trolls' project, his sculptures can be found in more than 20 countries and 21 U.S. states. Each year Dambo and his team make about 25 new trolls, which stand up to 40 feet (12 meters) tall. 'I believe that we can make anything out of anything,' said Dambo, speaking from his farm outside Copenhagen. 'We are drowning in trash. But we also know that one man's trash is another man's treasure.' An installation of six sculptures called 'Trolls Save the Humans' is on display at Filoli, a historic estate with 650 acres of forests and gardens in Woodside, California, about 30 miles (50 kilometers) south of San Francisco. 'They bring us back to be connected to the earth and to nature,' said Jeannette Weederman, who was visiting Filoli with her son in July. Dambo's trolls each have their own personality and story. At Filoli, the troll Ibbi Pip builds birdhouses, Rosa Sunfinger plants flowers and Kamma Can makes jewelry from people's garbage. 'Each of them has a story to tell,' said Filoli CEO Kara Newport. 'It inspires people to think of their own stories, what kind of creatures might live in their woods and make that connection to living beings in nature.' Dambo's trolls don't like humans because they waste nature's resources and pollute the planet. The mythical creatures have a long-term perspective because they live for thousands of years and have witnessed the destructive force of human civilizations. But the six young trolls at Filoli have a more optimistic view of human nature. They believe they can teach people how to protect the environment. 'They want to save the humans. So they do this by teaching them how to be better humans — be humans that don't destroy nature,' said Dambo, 45, a poet and former hip-hop artist. 'They hope to save them from being eaten by the older trolls.' Dambo's trolls are hidden in forests, mountains, jungles and grasslands throughout Europe and North America as well as countries such as Australia, Chile and South Korea. Most were built with local materials and assembled on-site by his team of craftsmen and artists with help from local volunteers. 'My exhibition now has four and a half million visitors a year globally, and it's all made out of trash together with volunteers,' said Dambo. 'That is such a huge proof of concept of why we should not throw things out, but why we should recycle it.'
