A-list stars have jumped to the defence of Aimee Loud Wood after she slammed a Saturday Night Live sketch mocking her teeth and accent.
The White Lotus star, 31, branded NBC 'mean and unfunny' for their skit - which saw Sarah Sherman wear huge prosthetic teeth while parodying Aimee.
On Sunday morning, Aimee was flooded with support from thousands of followers and reportedly was later issued an apology from SNL.
Among those to leap to her defence were A-listers including Cara Delevingne, Georgia May Jagger and feminist icon Jameela Jamil.
'I hate this so much,' Jameela wrote on her Instagram Story. 'It's the least interesting or memorable thing about this brilliant actor. Our next Olivia Coleman. Hilarious, deep, vulnerable, and relentlessly loveable.
'We make fun of the assimilation of women and then mercilessly obsess over anyone with any slightly alternative features from whatever bullsh** AI standard we have allowed, as women, to take hold of this world.'

In a second post, Jameela added: 'I also think she's so f***ing beautiful and love her face so much and wouldn't want her to look any different.'
Also sharing Aimee's Story, actress and model Cara wrote: '@aimeelouwood YOU ARE STUNNING. PERIOD.'
Cara's post was shared by model Georgia, who said: 'Agreed! @aimeelouwood is gorgeous.'
Saturday Night Live have reportedly since issued an apology to Aimee after she slammed the 'mean' sketch.
On Sunday night, Aimee shared a series of posts condemning the sketch show after its parody of her.
In response to being mocked on the show, the Sex Education star took to her Instagram Story to slam SNL and address rumours about HBO.
After the actress went viral for her takedown of the 'mean and unfunny' skit, she claimed that SNL had reached out to extend an olive branch.
Alongside a selfie distorted to make her eyes and mouth larger, she penned: 'I've had apologies from SNL'.

In the sketch, named The White Potus, it imagined the Trump family and various political figures on holiday at the famous retreat.
Walton Goggins' character Rick was reimagined as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who was seen on a rambling rant debating they take 'all the fluoride out of the water'.
The camera then cut to Aimee's character Chelsea - played by Sarah - with exaggerated buck teeth, who exclaimed: 'Fluoride? What's that?'
In response, Aimee took aim at the 'cheap' joke, as she wrote: 'Such a shame cuz I had such a great time watching it a couple weeks ago. Yes, take the p**s for sure - that's what the show is about- but there must be a cleverer, more nuanced, less cheap way?'
She also shared messages of support from her followers and sister Emily, admitting she'd received 'thousands' of messages backing her up.
Aimee continued: 'Last thing I'll say on the matter. I am not thin skinned. I actually love being taken the p**s out of when it's clever and in good spirits. But the joke was about fluoride. I have big gap teeth not bad teeth.
'I don't mind caricature - I understand that's what SNL is. But the rest of the skit was punching up and I/ Chelsea was the only one punched down On... Okay end of.'

To conclude, she shared a comment from a fan that read: 'It was a sharp and funny skit until it suddenly took a screeching turn into 1970's misogyny', she added: 'This sums up my view.'
Earlier in the day, Aimee shared more thoughts on the matter, admitting: 'Whilst in honest mode - I did find the SNL thing mean and unfunny,' she told her followers.
After noting she was feeling 'righteous' but 'might delete' her post later, fans encouraged her not to remove it.
