Community's Yvette Nicole Brown shows Twitter troll the meaning of love

Guardian - Sat, 05/07/2014 - 03:11

Yvette Nicole Brown, known as Shirley from the TV show Community, has a legion of fans, and one hater she loves no less

You rarely ask a pleasantry like how was your flight? and hear a reply that made national news. But a few days ago, Yvette Nicole Brown, better known as Shirley Bennett of the television show Community, was on board a Qantas flight from Los Angeles that began flooding one hour after takeoff. She says a trickle, like spilled soda, quickly turned into a gushing river.

It happened while we were still ascending and being on the top level of a double decker plane, we thought, oh god where is all this water going? And sure enough it ended up seeping through the floor and raining on the people in the level below, Brown tells me over the phone.

Pipe burst on my #Qantas flight over the Pacific. We were diverted back to LA. River running thru the aisles #ScaryTimes #WillKeepYouPosted

Ruh-roh! Lol! RT @dawgsindabatub @EW @Yahoo dear yahoo. Save the show but get rid of that bitch Yvette Nicole Brown. #Community

Hey guys, it's all in fun. Negative, racist folks like @dawgsindabatub elicit my sympathy. Wittle guy just wasn't hugged enough as a baby ;)
