Model/actress Cara Delevingne shut down a Twitter troll after he told her she can’t rely on her looks forever.
On my way to do something incredibly exciting and I am very nervous

The Suicide Squad star told her fans she was feeling nervous as she was on the way to something “very exciting” and BradTheLadLong, a former YouTube star and media personality, cuttingly responded by suggesting he hoped she was heading to an interview for a “real job” and added, “Your looks will fade, Cara. You can’t cash in on your eyebrows forever.”
You will regret saying that. I am actually trying to do something good. This has nothing to do with my ‘looks’ https://t.co/93LTs3aKsB

The 24-year-old fired back by writing, “You will regret saying that. I am actually trying to do something good. This has nothing to do with my ‘looks’… You are just another thirsty man who puts people down for attention on twitter and who thinks that looks are all that’s important.”

Try doing something for the world, period! I have no time no another man trying to tear down a woman for being successful. https://t.co/TXqkzEnDMz

She also blasted him for trying to tear down a woman for her success and suggested he try reading a book and doing something “actually worthwhile”.
When he defended his tweets, insisting he was just trying to give her some helpful advice, she responded: “Why would I take career advice from someone who has no idea what they are talking about” and ended their exchange by tweeting, “You certainly have an interesting way of trying to help people.”
