The internet is like a bridge of sorts. It connects millions of people to a near-infinite amount of things. And like fairy tale bridges, trolls reside underneath. Well, proverbially speaking, of course. Trolls exist within the internet, and while they don’t necessarily stop you and ask for some password to get to where you’re going, they will stop at nothing to hinder your experience and make it a virtual living hell. Though anyone can get trolled, celebrities are more prone to them because of how forward-facing and accessible they are.

Of course, her responses are valid. They’re informed and always a little cheeky. Here are 15 of her best and realest of the real moments.
