The ones that don't are too chicken [expletive] to do anything about it anyway. Candy [expletive]. When you watch this movie next April and it seems like I'm not acting in some of these scenes and my blood is legit boiling -- you're right."

Messing later tweeted Shelton's girlfriend, Gwen Stefani, saying, "please talk to your man to not vote for the person who will STRIP you of your rights."

Wiz Khalifa vs. Kanye West

Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa set the Twitterverse ablaze in January 2016, as they beefed over West's abrupt decision to change his album's title from "Swish" to "Waves."

A few days later, West tweeted "Me and Wiz spoke yesterday. Great convo. All positive."

Prior to her appearance on the show, 50 had dissed the hit TV show "Empire," on which Fox appears, so naturally, host Andy Cohen had to ask: "What were your thoughts when 50 Cent blamed the season ratings dip on 'gay stuff'?" Fox responded, "You know, the pot calling the kettle black is all I'm saying." 50 Cent responded with "Oh No!!! Now she things [sic] I'm gay because I let her [expletive]. LMAO.

Had NOTHING to do with race and NEVER would!!!" The Disney Channel star then posted a lengthy message on Instagram, saying in part, "There is a fine line between what is funny and disrespectful. Someone said something about my hair at the Oscars that left me in awe . . . because I was hit with ignorant slurs and pure disrespect. To say that an 18 year old woman with locs must smell of patchouli oil or 'weed' is not only a large stereotype but outrageously offensive."

Miley Cyrus v. Nicki Minaj

Before the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, Miley Cyrus told the New York Times Nicki Minaj was "not too kind" and "not very polite" after Minaj became upset "Anaconda" wasn't nominated for Video of the Year.

During Minaj's acceptance speech for hip-hop video of the year at the 2015 show, she called out host Cyrus for the comments she made about the rapper in the paper. Minaj referred to Cyrus as "this [expletive] that had a lot of stuff to say about me in the press. Miley, what's good?"

The comic went on to say she believes Jolie is not a nice person, among some vulgar statements. Once news broke that Pitt and Jolie were divorcing, Handler ripped back into Jolie, saying: "There are rumors that part of the problem was that Brad was allegedly drinking and smoking too much weed," she said. "I wonder why he would need to self-medicate? Maybe because he could have been spending the last 12 years at Lake Como hanging out with George Clooney and Matt Damon instead of being stuck in a house with 85 kids speaking 15 different languages. Oh yeah, because he married a [expletive] lunatic, that's why."
