If you've ever thought of coming for Jamie Lee Curtis, one word of advice: don't.

Someone tried to take the Hollywood icon down during a recent live-tweet session she did, and it took Curtis only one sentence--and a gentle one at that--to put her troll immediately in place.

Aside from her appearances in Oscar-nominated films like last year's Knives Out and her Hollywood pedigree--she is the daughter of Psycho star Janet Leigh and Some Like It Hot's Tony Curtis--Jamie Lee Curtis is, of course, the star of the iconic Halloween series created by legendary horror filmmaker John Carpenter.

To celebrate the beloved franchise--and, you know, probably just for something to do during self-isolation--Curtis and director David Gordon Green did an online watch party and live-tweet of the 2018 version of Halloween, a direct sequel to the original 1978 film that started it all, with the hashtag #HalloweenAtHome.

All was going well and everyone was having a great time, until a nice gent named Matt Emert tweeted a very sweet message to Curtis, thanking her for her work in the beloved films, and someone just had to pipe in and give their negative two cents in response, accusing Curtis of only doing the 2018 film for money.

But if you think Jamie Lee Curtis was going to just give that a pass and keep scrolling, think again.

She shut her critic right down with one simple fact.

Any questions, sir?

If you were anywhere near a TV in the 2000s and early 2010s, you likely saw one of Curtis's commercials hawking Dannon's Activia yogurt--they were so ubiquitous they were even parodied multiple times by Kristen Wiig on SNL. So, yeah, suffice to say, Jamie Lee probably doesn't have any money problems she needs to solve by doing more Halloween movies!

Of course, folks on Twitter were 100% here for Jamie Lee's subtle but efficient drag!












So there you have it: don't come for Jamie Lee Curtis unless she sends for you. She got yogurt money and is not to be played with!

If you're looking for more Jamie Lee Curtis Halloween fun, you're in luck: she'll be proving her trolls wrong again in the franchise's upcoming 12th and 13th installments: Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends come out this and next October, respectively.

Megyn Kelly Tells 'Homicidal Maniac' Lindsey Graham To 'STFU' About Iran War In Brutal Rant

Conservative pundit Megyn Kelly criticized South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham on Tuesday, calling him a "homicidal maniac" and demanding he "shut the f**k up" following his calls for intervention in Cuba and for President Donald Trump to join Israel in attacking the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon.

In particular, Graham urged Middle Eastern partners to do more to support the U.S. war effort, telling countries such as Saudi Arabia to “up your game.” He also criticized Spain after its leadership strongly opposed the attacks on Iran. Graham said Spain had “lost your way,” and called on the U.S. to cut ties with the country and withdraw its military air base from Spanish territory.

Lindsey Graham Dragged After His Latest Claim About Iran Directly Contradicts Trump's From Last Summer—And Oops

South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham was called out after he predicted on Fox News that the U.S. is "gonna obliterate" Iran's nuclear program by the time the recently-initiated war with the country is over, prompting critics to point out that he directly contradicted President Donald Trump's own claim from last summer.

Graham, discussing the war that began after the U.S., with the joint coordination of Israel, launched strikes against Iran on February 28, claimed Trump is “the right guy at the right time” because of Tehran’s supposed nuclear program.
