Stefano Gabbana slammed for calling Selena Gomez ugly: ‘Your homophobic, misogynistic, body-shaming existence will not thrive in 2018’

Stefano Gabbana is putting Dolce & Gabbana in the headlines for the wrong reason yet again – this time for calling Selena Gomez “so ugly.”

The 55-year-old designer became a troll this week when he commented underneath Catwalk Italia’s Instagram post of Gomez, 25, “è proprio brutta,” which translates to “she’s so ugly.”

Then to prove this wasn’t some strange accident or random outburst, he went on to like a comment stating that the singer “looks like a Pomeranian dog,” and replied “hahahahahaha is true hahahaha.”

However, it wasn’t long before fans, friends and colleagues of Gomez jumped to her defence.

13 Reasons Why star Tommy Dorfman, 26, wrote to him: “You’re tired and over. Your homophobic, misogynistic, body-shaming existence will not thrive in 2018. It is no longer tolerable or chic. Please take many seats.”

Gomez is an executive producer on 13 Reasons Why, the hit Netflix drama which recently launched its second season.

Miley Cyrus, 25, branded Gabbana a “dick head”.

She commented on a separate post: “Well what that dick head said (if it’s true) is fucking false and total bull shit.”

She added: “She’s fine as fuck.”
