Haim Don’t Care About Your Mean Tweets

By Anne Cohen February 3, 2015

Jimmy Kimmel’s “Celebrities Read Mean Tweets” never gets old. If you’re not familiar with the concept, it’s simple: famous people sit down and read what the trolls of the Internet have to say about them. Out loud. The latest edition features musicians: Wiz Khalifa, Britney Spears, Blake Shelton, Lady Gaga, and our favorites, Jewish girl band Haim.

Este, Danielle and Alana Haim had what we deem the best reaction in “Mean Tweets” history.

Responding to @showmethesign’s, “Let’s face it, the girls from Haim are ugly as f—k and perform like they’re orgasming,” Alana quips: “I kind of like that.”

Suck it haters.

As an aside, Drake, also a member of the tribe, has an excellent sad face. Don’t worry, we don’t think that “Drake looks like Voldemort with hair.”

Speaking of those who hate, hate, hate, Haim will be touring with Taylor Swift on her 1989 World Tour. We can’t wait, wait, wait.
