TV3’s Tallafornia Star, Kelly Donegan reacts to cyberbullying on Facebook
This afternoon the independent.ie posted an article discussing TV3 Tallafornia Star’s Kelly Donegan’s dramatic transformation from ‘party girl’ to a female bodybuilder.
The article focused on Kelly’s transformation from a ‘26-year-old that lacked in focus and drive’, to a 28-year-old female bodybuilder.
Since leaving Tallafornia, Kelly has found a new outlet of interest, health and fitness. Kelly has since started a blog called BikiniBrawn,where she shares her growing knowledge about female bodybuilding in Ireland.
However, the positive article took a knock on Facebook this afternoon when hundreds of Facebook users started to negatively comment on the independent’s Facebook post.
Many of the Facebook commenters focused on the physical change in appearance, rather than the dedication that it takes to become a female bodybuilder and the change in mentality that Kelly went through. If you want to see the reaction you can view it here
Kelly later bravely took to Facebook to respond to the negative comments on her own personal page.
Kelly posted on Facebook explaing that she thinks “The world is a funny place, and people never cease to amaze me with their ability to turn something so positive into something really nasty. I feel genuinely sorry for people who feel they have the right to pass judgement on the way somebody looks.”
