South Shields-born Sarah, 49, has starred in a number of TV shows including 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Mock The Week and Have I Got News For You?
Yet she is currently in the midst of her UK Late Bloomer tour, hitting the stage in Derby on Friday and due to delight the crowds at Oxford’s New Theatre tonight.
Yet before she entertains with her witty one-liners, Sarah issued a candid analysis of “what it’s like to be a woman in the public eye.”
She then uploaded a screen grab of the trolls comments, which began with a back-handed compliment.
It stated: “I find you absolutely fabulous.
“Spot on. I’m laughing my teeth out!
“Just a little tip. In your older videos you have shorter hair.
“It suits you better. Gives you a neck.
“You would be even more pretty.”
Moving onto the star’s wardrobe choices the troll added: “Leggings and short tunics may not be the most appropriate outfits for you.
“Good luck finding the right outfits for your body.”
Sarah then uploaded her reply to the user on X – after kindly blurring her name out for privacy.
She hit back: “I don’t care what you think I should wear or how you think I should have my hair.
“Just a little tip.
“Good luck finding your manners.”
Many rushed to reply to the tweet to share their love with her.
One wrote: “This makes me sad. You wouldn’t come up to someone and say this in person so why is it in any way acceptable to say it online?”
Another added: “How does anyone think this is ok to send to anyone else??”
A third said: “‘Thank you for the excellent material you’ve given me for my next tour…’”
A fourth tweeted: “That’s awful, sarah. we still have a long way to go. It’s not appropriate on any level. I’m sorry you received comments like that. You’re a fantastic comic and an incredible woman.”
Sarah is renowned as one of the UK’s best female comedians.
The star shot to fame in the 2000s.
