Actress Chloë Grace Moretz Slams Online 'Trolls'

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) – 19 year old Chloë Grace Moretz is fed up with negative commenters on social media. Especially those internet "trolls" who make light of the serious subject of body-shaming.

On Moretz' Twitter feed, the "Kick Ass" actress went off on those who "hid behind computer screens" and made fun of a person's looks. "When will people hiding behind computer screens get tired of calling someone "fat" or "masculine" - Moretz tweets.

In March, Moretz joined in on a Twitter thread led by singer Pink against Kim Kardashian who posted a nude selfie that sparked a celebrity debate on empowerment and self worth. Moretz said "There's a huge difference in respecting the platform that you're given as a celebrity and "slut shaming" something I never have done and -would never do."

Moretz currently stars in the movie "Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising" with Seth Rogen, Zac Efron and Rose Byrne.
