Here are some of the comments some of her fans dropped on her page, "Unbelievably problematic," one wrote.

"Using women of color's bodies as a joke. I guess you just want people to know you're racist and you don't give a s--t."  say a follower.

“No ma'am! Take the booty pads off. Look white gurls you already the standard of beauty let us black chicks have something,” another fired back.

"As if getting married on a slave plantation wasn't reason enough to hate her," says another upset follower.
