NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Gossip Girl’ Michelle Trachtenberg is not happy with the fans after getting trolled over her ‘sick’ appearance.

Trachtenberg, 38, fired back on Thursday, January 18, to clarify the doubts that she was healthy and had not been through any procedures to modify her appearance.

Why was Michelle Trachtenberg trolled over her appearance?

The internet started to question her appearance after Trachtenberg uploaded a selfie with ‘Spy Kids’ star Alexa PenaVega. She revealed that they were getting hair done.

“These kids….now adults getting our roots/hair done! Love this girl @vegaalexa,” she captioned the photo on Instagram, Hollywoodlife also reported. 

Following the post, fans speculated there was something wrong with Trachtenberg. “Michelle u look sick. R u ok?,” commented a user.

“Yellowing eyes, hair loss, and sunken features aren’t normal for a 38 yo. You are still gorgeous, so illness can be hard to see. Please get checked…,” wrote another Instagram user in part in the comment box.

“Yellow eyes, are you good?” questioned another. “No offense Michelle, but you are looking a bit haggard. I think people are concerned that it could be health related. You are still beautiful,” wrote one more.

One more questioned her hairline saying, “These are no roots it is a bald spot.” Even as many fans were in her support, these comments seem to have hurt.

“Calling people haters is weird for being genuinely concerned about you. These are your fans. The only reason you have money and a platform. To call them haters is so TELLING,” wrote one.
