Teuila Blakely has some words for online trolls.
It's been a tumultuous week for Kiwi actor Teuila Blakely.
The former Shortland Street actor was the victim of savage online trolling after posting a picture to social media of her and good friend, Warriors star Konrad Hurrell, snapped at Auckland International Auckland as she prepared to travel to Sydney.
Two years ago the pair were caught up in a scandal after footage of them engaged in a sex act went viral.
Talking to Spy after returning from Sydney, Blakely said social media users should think twice before making offensive posts, whether they are targeting celebrities or everyday Kiwis.
"Would you say what you say online, face to face, to the person you're saying it to?" she asked.
It was not just the targets of the offensive comments who could be harmed by the posts, Blakely said.
