Jameela Jamil's stinging response to viral allegations she has a mental disorder

Jameela Jamil shut down trolls over viral allegations she has a mental disorder.

Trolls accused the Legendary star of having Munchausens which is a mental disorder where a human repeatedly acts like the person has a physical or mental illness although he or she is not sick.

The hater made the accusation by citing Jameela's so-called contrasting version of events over the years.

One instance noted was during her appearance on Good Morning America in 2018, the star recalled breaking her nose, her elbow, lost a front tooth and suffering from concussion on a TV show.

However, the troll insinuated Jameela had exaggerated her injuries by sharing alleged footage of the aftermath of the fall showing the star without bandages and appearing to have all her teeth.

But the outspoken star, 33, fired back at the allegations with a vicious tweet as she called the keyboard warrior "unhinged" for coming up with conspiracy theories.

Jameela - who confessed to coming out as queer at the wrong time to coincide with her judging a voguing talent show - aired her feelings with her one million followers on Twitter with a series of tweets.

She wrote: "First I’m lying about my sexuality, now I’m now being accused of munchausens?

"By an unhinged idiot who didn’t even realize in all her “research” that my car accident injury stories are “different” because they were about TWO SEPARATE CAR ACCIDENTS 13 years apart? You can keep it."

The television personality insisted trolls were only feeding her fame by keeping her in the centre of the limelight with their "dumb internet conspiracy theories".

Jameela bragged she could use her fame to help people suffering with eating disorders, change laws and global policies.

In another tweet, she added: "Not afraid of you or your dumb internet conspiracy theories. Keep them coming. You just add to my relevance. I’m gonna keep helping people with eating disorders, and changing laws and global policies to protect kids and their mental health and there’s NOTHING you can do about it."

Controversy has been swirling around the star once again since it was unveiled she landed a judging position on a voguing talent show which is a style of dance stemming from the LGBTQ community.

Jameela was heavily criticised by people for defending her position and coming out as queer.

The telly star acknowledged the backlash on twitter and accepted "being queer doesn't qualify" her as an expert on ballroom culture or voguing.

She wrote: "'I'm just a lead judge to my 11 years of hosting experience, being fully impartial, a newcomer to ballroom (like much of the audience will be) and therefore a window in for people who are just discovering it now, and being a long time ally of the lgbtq community."
