Kelly Clarkson spent part of her Fourth of July reminding haters not to come for her.
While celebrating Independence Day, the singer sent out a tweet thanking those who serve and protect Americans and shouting out those who made the nation possible. “Thank u 2 every person in service 4 protecting all of us and cheers to every person who fought for us to experience freedom & independence,” she wrote.
One troll took this as an opportunity to blast the singer for her weight, writing, “You’re fat.” But because Clarkson is the queen of the snappy tweet, she took no time crafting the perfect reply: “…and still fucking awesome 😜”

Lucky for fans, this wasn’t the first time the singer had a sassy comeback on social media. Read a selection of her best tweets below:

She had previously made her voting preference clear and warned the haters to keep their insults to themselves.

In July 2016, she tweeted her admiration and support of Michelle Obama after her powerful speech at the Democratic National Convention referenced waking up “every morning in a house (the White House) that was built by slaves,” and watching her daughters Malia and Sasha, “two beautiful, intelligent, black young women,” play on the White House lawn.
Damn! Just saw @MichelleObama speech at DNC tonight! That was amazing!! Love her ???????????? #imwithher #clinton

One Twitter user was unimpressed. In a since-deleted reply, he wrote, “I’m not sure I liked the part where she said the White House was built by slaves.” Here how Clarkson weighed in:
Pretty certain the slaves that built it didn't like it either. https://t.co/iV9p344IYZ

As Kesha’s legal battle with Dr. Luke intensified in February 2016, Clarkson showed her loyalty to her fellow singer with a not-so-subtle tweet.
Trying 2 not say anything since I can't say anything nice about a person... so this is me not talking about Dr. Luke https://t.co/lLhtUHbmgG
