Dolce & Gabbana's designer Stefano Gabbana calls Selena Gomez 'Ugly' and Selenators trashed him on social media
Stefano Gabbana, Italian designer is famous for his controversial, unfiltered comments on social media. The co-founder of high-fashion label Dolce & Gabbana made provoking comment about Selena Gomez on Instagram attacking her appearance.
As first pointed out by Instagram account Diet Prada, Gabbana, 55, commented on post on The Catwalk Italia’s Instagram feed showing a five-split photo of Gomez in different red dresses prompting fans to pick their favorites in the comments.
Gabbana, 55, appeared to write “è proprio brutta,” on the photo, which roughly translates to “She’s so ugly.” He also responded to a commenter who said she “looks like a Pomeranian dog,” replying, “hahahahahaha is true hahahaha.”
Selenators dragged Gabbana (with all of the snake emojis) and defend the 25-year-old popstar.
“We don’t care about your lame ass brand,” one user wrote with another biting back, “look in the mirror you are ugly both interior and exterior,” and “shame on you for online bullying.”
I’m Italian and I I apologize for what Stefano Gabbana said, he is over!

D&G is beautiful but he is literally ugly, he is disgusting!
Selena Gomez is one of the most beautiful woman in the world. Scienze and people say that, it’s not my opinion!
Selena is Prada, you’re Nada! pic.twitter.com/JAb41iOBin
Considering how many times Selena Gomez has worn Dolce & Gabbana’s designs on some of the biggest red carpet events in the world you would think that the co-founder of #DolceAndGabbana Stefano Gabbana, would have the decency to appreciate the free promotion she gave to his brand. pic.twitter.com/sI9V1iVFdn

so, you can not like how someone looks, but calling that person ugly on social media without any actual reason is low, especially when you're a grown ass man

As PopCrave notes, Gabbana has a history of making rude comments on celebrities’ Instagram accounts; he’s also feuded with Miley Cyrus and her brother, Braison. People adds he’s also recently made a nasty comment about Kate Moss, plus made controversial arguments against in vitro fertilization and gay parenting. He’s also fought back against critics over his label's dressing Melania Trump, and Dolce & Gabbana even designed #BoycottDolceGabbana shirts in response.
But this time, Gabbana has upset Selena Gomez fans, and that may have been a bridge too far. Her fans have trashed him on Instagram and Twitter.
Dolce & Gabbana has not issued a response to the backlash, and neither has Gabbana himself. But given his history of trolling on Instagram, it’s unlikely Gabbana will stop now. In fact, here's the gross thing he posted in response to Internet critics last year.
